Thanks to The Robot Devil for the information.

Looks like Amarr Assaults will be useless, and Minmatar Assault will be the new FOTM.

On the bright side, guess who's going Caldari Assault!! Lol

Great, I got my Amarr Assault because I wanted the best laser. Then the laser got f*cked so I got a Scrambler Rifle to have something to use on the suit. Now I needn't have bothered with any of it.

The only bonuses that needed changing were the shield recharge, the Caldari's UP shield extender, and the Gallente's useless PG reduction.
We were happy with the rest.
Every day that I consider how f*cking moronic the devs making these decisions have to be, I always wonder if the real incentive is simply to keep us in a constant need of more SP.

If Walking Is So Good For You, Then Why Does My Mailman Look Like Jabba The Hut?

If not I won't be too enthused having to completely swap out of logistics. Will have to be stacking SP for about 2 months.

Tough luck I picked it because I got tired of being cut down almost every single match by multiple squads that ran the same suit. I actually would probably still use it but there's no armor repair bonus anymore. If Walking Is So Good For You, Then Why Does My Mailman Look Like Jabba The Hut?
LEHON Xeon Pradox XVI 13	Posted - 2014.01.08 00:18:00 - [3] - Quote People got one for vehicles and I didn't hear that kind of BS for them when they had modules removed. Same thing applies to suits as far as I'm concerned. Same with people that even did Amarr assault for the cool down bonus. They got the shaft also so just like vehicles under that logic we should get suit respects because the base fundamentals of the suits themselves changed. Logistics no longer has armor repair bonuses. I can't really complain all that much though because I tucked some exp into assault variants so if there isn't a respec I won't die, but it's just an annoyance.

Look at the Gallente which will now have more than 800 armor with 4 enhanced plates, a 10% DPS increase and 2-3 damage mods. I am not even gonna bother being a Logistics with these arounds. I am going to get destroyed. The difference between a damage modded Assault suit and a Minmatar would be 11.5% damage vs 25% more HP. That would come down to your tactical play style I guess. If you're super accurate, good at long range attacks, and/or are good at getting the jump on people could probably easily destroy people with the Minmitar suit damage bonus. Otherwise Gallente would most likely still be king for the tanking suit. If Walking Is So Good For You, Then Why Does My Mailman Look Like Jabba The Hut?
LEHON Xeon Pradox XVI 22	Posted - 2014.01.08 04:33:00 - [5] - Quote I guess here's another concern of mine that there's no answers to necessarily at this time which has a very large importance. According to these new findings, for gallente and caldari assault suits, there's supposed to be a 5% per level add on to all respective armor and shielding dropsuit modules. Does this compound now with already existing skills? We will end up with a cumulative total of armor or will existing skills become removed and obsolete? Because under this principle we'd have the following: Gallente suits Gallente Assault Bonus: +5% to HP bonus of armor plate modules per level. +5% per level to maximum armor, +2% armor module efficacy per level Caldari Suits Caldari Assault Bonus: +5% to bonus of shield extender modules per level. +5% per level to maximum shields, +2% shield extender efficacy per level Or now will the overall maximum increase skills be removed and replaced by these suit bonuses? If those skills disappear, are we going to get that SP back or is it just going to disappear entirely as some people have had happen to them prior? All things I keep thinking about... Other inputs????? If Walking Is So Good For You, Then Why Does My Mailman Look Like Jabba The Hut?

Perhaps that's their pathetic idea of attempting to extend this already majority failure of a FPS. They think if they keep restructuring SP requirements that people will stay around longer and stop the hemorrhaging of people leaving.
