I'm sure it'll probably last for a few weeks if everyone is lucky. Will probably be the new FOTM. Probably will get nerfed down to an extra 2% damage per level.

I must admit, unless there's slot number and cpu/pg changes for the suits which we'll have to wait to find out about, I really don't see all that much difference from where we are now. People are just going to swap out what they use now for a different suit name but end up with likely the same end result.

I find it funny minmatar gets a bonus to DAMAGE MOD efficacy, and people flip ****.
How about galsault getting plate bonuses?
Galogi with scanner precision buff?!

A minmatar assault with 2 damage mods gets 22%, yay?

By versatility, do you mean heavily armour stacked logis with multi-damage modded rifles?

Because I will be glad to see the back of them.

Development
This was one of the first vessels the Sisters of EVE made available to capsuleers. It had been under development by the Sanctuary corporation, whose interest in exploration includes not only search & rescue operations but also a constant inquiry into the nature of the EVE Gate. Thanks to the Sisters' efforts and the Sanctuary's particular expertise, the Nestor is an agile, tenacious ship that aptly adheres to the mantra of both rescuers and explorers: Stay safe, stay hidden, and use every tool at your disposal.

It is particularly adept at venturing into dangerous territories, not merely in recovering whatever may be of interest but also in being able to safely bring it back. Its engines have alternate power sources that come into play should any of its cargo - for which it has plenty of room - cause serious interference with internal systems. Its weaponry runs best on renewable sources, an ideal for a ship that doesn't know how long it'll be in deep space. Its carapace is extremely well armored for a ship this agile, and covered in sensors capable of letting its crew track a myriad of different organic signatures. The crew itself is safely protected from any number of transmittable ailments from rescues and other unexpected passengers, thanks to special quarantine bays that are conveniently located near jettisonable openings.

The Sanctuary corporation poured uncountable resources into making the cloaking technology developed for the Stratios fit the Nestor but were eventually forced to concede that it was impossible. The effort was not without benefit though, as part of their work focused on reducing the Nestor's mass enough that it could make its way into unexplored territories that might've been hazardous to bulkier vessels. This paid off by affording the Nestor unmatched access to wormhole space, and meant that the embedded miniature rescue vessel on the ship's hull could be relegated to a decommissioned role. With covert function off the table, the Sanctuary turned their eyes on logistics and now the Nestor serves as one of the best support platforms in New Eden.

My fears exactly. There are too many players relying on tanking already. And why shouldn't they? Stack armor and shield extenders and you can pretty much storm anyone not stacking damage mods. It requires no fore thought and little skill in battle. I would like to see more use of cover and squad work that would come from non-tanking play styles. With Cal/Gal being the new tankers I expect to see a lot more of them.

Mind you, I don't expect to actually see this right away with all the new heavies running around. But, yeah Amar and Min will be sparse on the ground except for a few try-hards who will do very well. Probably Min Assault will be the new goto for snipers.

As a dedicated Gal Logi from the start I approve of all these bonuses. Now the Gallente Assault has a purpose and all the assaults in general have a favorable combat bonuses over logis, without making them OP.

Then again none of this can be confirmed as what we'll actually be getting in the future or how far down the line it will be.

Somebody probably already wrote this, but after doing some math, I've seen that a gk.0 can theorically go out with 939 HP - Armor only, if such armor does not change.
We would have: 210 + [ ( 135 + 35% ) -+ 4 ] = 939
Ok, that's probably an unrealistic scenario since you would go slower than a turtle, but still you would almost have the same armor of a HVY suit.

On the contrary, the "poor" Caldari only get a lesser bonus:
210 + [ ( 66 + 35% ) -+ 4 ] = 566 HP - Shield only
While this is a more realistic outfit, I don't know what else to put once you have put 4 Complex Shield Extenders, which require 216 CPU / 44 PG

About to log on again if anyone has any new questions ask them and I will try to answer them now.

On the 1st page you put the skill bonus's for the gallente commando twice instead of commando and sentinel can we have the gallente sentinel skills please. Also would you mind taking a look at equipment skills please and see if they give any per level bonus or if they are still just unlocker skills (which CCP said many times they dont want skills that only unlock HINT HINT CCP)

new equipment?
it seems scout stats were added last downtime
also racial vehicles

The Heavy Attack Vehicle (HAV) serves as an anchoring unit for many planetary engagements, fulfilling its role as a long-range and heavily armored unit. Equipped with thick and resilient armor plating and high-capacity shielding systems, it is a tenacious defensive vehicle, able to withstand persistent onslaughts from entrenched enemies.

Special Kaalakiota limited edition release.

Saga-II
Augmented with ultra-efficient active shielding, the Saga-II can temporarily withstand a barrage of enemy fire as it streaks through the frontline to deliver mercenaries into the heart of the battle.

There are the only two things I don't recognize, I don't do vehicles so they may already be in game and I just didn't know.

thanks for looking but they're both already in

what about equipment?

bolt pistol info

Slot of Gallente/Minmatar sentinel suit ?

there's almost certainly no pg/cpu or fitting information on sisi
