I swear someone's done this crap before... ANYWAY.
People seem to be a tad upset over this and that and suchnsuch with suits erforming outside of their intended roles, and some better than others in their own areas of supposed expertise. CCP fixed that in EVE with Role Bonuses, a fitting mechanic that makes it easier to fit a ship of a certain role with modules that accentuate the role. CCP Shanghai needs to copy that golden formula.
I'll admit here I find it difficult to give the Heavy an across-the-board, true Role Bonus as they don't have but ONE Heavy out.
Scout
All Races-Pretty obvious, give him bonuses to the Biotics tree of modules. This allows the Scout to be hands down the fastest suit in the game and allows them to have enough spare fit to use Damage mods for a gank or Shield mods for survivability. Maybe an extra low slot or two wouldn't go amiss here either, but thats suit balancing, not Role Bonuses.
Logi
All Races-Decreases to the repairing equipment, like Repair Tools and Nanoinjectors, Hives as well. This allows them to appropriately Logi their targets and still fit decent modules, so they could then suffer a small hit to either slots or fitting totals.
Assault
All Races-Decrease to damage modules, giving the Assault suits an edge in combat(AKA in ASSAULTING).
Heavy
All Races-Release another Heavy, then we can get into this.
Racially Minded-Decrease to tanking modules, Armor for GalAmarr, Shield for CalMinny.
Commando
-Reduced fitting cost to light weapons, as that is the entire point of the suit. If they aren't able to fit the two Light weapons and still function at a decent level, there is no point to this suit's existence. |

I'll just leave this here ...
Quote:A technical issue is currently preventing us from authoring suit bonuses that alter equipment functionality. When this is solved weGÇÖll be giving Logistics suits the bonuses they need to make their role truly shine. Bonuses to the range and effectiveness of repair tools; to nanohive capacity and resupply rate and the like. These are the sorts of things that will make logistics players the invaluable squad support they ought to be.

Must you hound all of my threads? I am merely suggesting what could be the role bonuses beyond just the Logi suit. |

CCP Shanghai WANTS to copy that golden formula, but they can't do it right now. So why 'hound' them with topics that have been discussed at great length in the past and can be easily found with the Search function and 'revived' (lol) if you have any fresh ideas to add to them.

I never agree with anything this character says but he's right on this one.
Some of these bonus's are not thought out.
It sounds like these bonus's are coming from your use, and strategy of the suits only.
This is not the way to think when it comes to matters like this. |
