Maximus Stryker Villore Sec Ops Gallente Federation 600	Posted - 2013.09.23 20:59:00 - [1] - Quote I have an alt with 8m SP and I spent them almost entirely on skills "geared" towards the Commando Suit. A few humble suggestions. Standard slots: 0 high & 0 low Advanced slots: 1 high & 1 low Prototype slots: 2 high & 2 low ***Standard and Advanced are currently fine IMO, but Proto needs an additional low slot as currently 2 high and 1 low is just not quite enough to keep competitive. The speed of the suit needs a slight buff, not huge, but just a little bit more... Otherwise, I really like the suit.
Meeko Fent Seituoda Taskforce Command Caldari State 981	Posted - 2013.09.23 21:35:00 - [2] - Quote STD should get 1 low, just for the sake so they could theoretically have a repper, or something else.
Melchiah ARANeAE The Unholy Legion Of DarkStar DARKSTAR ARMY 29	Posted - 2013.09.23 22:46:00 - [3] - Quote I'd actually recommend this: STD - 1 high, 1 low ADV - 1 high, 2 low PRO - 2 high, 2 low. Oh, and change the commando suit bonus to 3% reduction to Light/Sidearm CPU/PG usage. That's much more fitting for the suits role than reload speed.

That's much more fitting for the suits role than reload speed. I am curious to see what each racial variant of the commando suit has as a bonus, I think the reload speed is a good bonus for one of the races. Possibly: Amarr = increased reload speed Caldari = increased efficency of damage mods Galente = reduction of CPU/PG Minmatar = increased sprint speed and stamina

Seeth Mensch Damage Core corp. The Superpowers 26	Posted - 2013.09.28 21:50:00 - [6] - Quote After playing logi for the last couple of months (the entirety of my Dust life), I am considering hanging onto points to get into a Commando suit. Why? Because I have specced weapons of laser, and MD. That just seems like such a great combo! But I see a lot of QQ threads about the Commando suit. It's not clear to me why it's disregarded; Even this forum says it's "almost" good enough. Is the lack of modules that devastating? As a logi, I've been running around with very few, but I have built in repair, so I don't think I have a fair baseline. I just like the offensive combo of bonus to shield and bonus to armor damage in weapons. Enough to spend points? Reading these makes me wonder about another bad investment.

The lack of modules is such a severe penalty to long term survivability that it does nothing an assault suit can't do, but it does it worse and slower.

I disaprove.
The Eristic Dust 90210 20	Posted - 2013.09.28 22:57:00 - [9] - Quote Wouldn't say it's useless, depending on which two weapons you're running, but reload speed I would think probably most fitting for Minmatar or Gallente. I want so badly to spec into Commando next (Scrambler + Shotgun or Sniper or...), but the lack of slots is a big problem, given the myriad other limitations of the suit. For a role that is supposed to be durable and versatile in battle, no grenades, no speed, no worthwhile HP, no rep, no PG/CPU and extremely limited (at best!) slots to compensate seems far too much to give up for a second light weapon. The big melee buff isn't even useful when you can't survive enemy fire long enough to close them down and smack 'e.
Seeth Mensch Damage Core corp. The Superpowers 36	Posted - 2013.09.29 20:15:00 - [10] - Quote Basically, the commando suit runs a little short in pretty much all areas, then. /sigh I really wanted to laser MD someone...

shady merc RisingSuns Public Disorder. 22	Posted - 2013.09.30 00:57:00 - [12] - Quote Recently spec into commando, I feel the bonus to armor/shield mods doesn't fit well with the current slots configuration. With the standard suit having no slot the bonus does not help until advanced. Once you are in an adv suit you have1high and 1 slot. The suit is just begging for you to use a damage mod since both weapon benefit from it. And with so much of your overall hitpoints in armor you would want run a rep per. However at advanced the a bonus of .3 to the rep per isn't really helping. I do however enjoy the reload bonus and believe it should stay at its current 5% a level A little more speed would be nice as well..

Again, I did this suit on an alt, in its current state I would not recommend spending SP on. However, add a low slot and a slight speed bonus abd then it becomes worth it IMO.
Nikea Nei Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 61	Posted - 2013.10.01 12:00:00 - [14] - Quote Commando suit borders on death trap. It's a perfect storm of low Ehp, poor recharge, slow move speed, zero-3 slots, and meager fitting. You can "survive" using at-range weapons like Snipers that keep you completely out of the fight... but that's the same thing we used to tell complete newbies to do. It's also what people do when they get redlined. It's the default "low-risk" means of engagement and it's not particularly meaningful that a Commando can do it. The suit needs a complete overhaul: a rethinking of stats, bonuses, etc. I don't log in anymore because my PRO Commando Suit just seems like a huge waste of time.
Flint Beastgood III GunFall Mobilization Covert Intervention 184	Posted - 2013.10.01 15:53:00 - [15] - Quote +1, and also, the standard should have 1 low slot as someone else stated. When I first heard about the Commando I was hyped.... Then I saw the stats.. loool. If these proposed changes were implemented I might spec into it after all.
