To me it worjs better on lighter frames because they have the mobility to negate damage better.

Fair enough, I don't see just allowing 50% of the suits to apply their bonus to a wide range of weapons in both optimal ranges and damage types being balanced as it just causes an immediate FOTM balance issue, but you do see it as balanced, and everyone to their own view so we'll leave it at that.

Yeh, as AV I don't have success with the plasma cannon, but I do like the AP potential of it. Definitely better on a lighter suit, but, if the player already has good skills from using it they might make it shine on the commando suit aswell when paired with something else. It won't be me though. I've had good moments with it on the suit but I've had more success using a mass driver instead.

I've been curious of how well the mass driver works but I've never had pure excess sp,to actually try out a weapon I was average at best with.

Just get the basic and have a taste of it. Setting up in an elevated spot is a must as is running nanohives for equipment. The nanohive requirement gets me as I run a scanner on all my other commandos but it has to be done. I mainly use the fitting to bombard groups, try to take out equipment, and a few kills. Most kills with the suit come from my AR but the mass driver can give a nice few assists.

I guess I'll test it on my commando alt and if it works passably, said character will gain a direction to funnel sp into.

If this did hapoen,the only thing I would want to further change is the variety of medium slot mods, it's pretty.limited unless you dual tank. 0 damage modules would be healthier. No gun needs more power. It would be slightly better if the modules allowed for customisation and manipulation of our weapons aspects from recoil, RoF, to ADS speeds, but then should always come with penalties for those weapon buffs. We've been begging for a true weapon customization system since closed beta, and it's most likely amoung the top requests of the community. Also your post mafe me consider that maybe damage mods themselves aren't the source of the problem, but the lack of a penalty for them, just a thought though, not a fully fleshed out concept.

I guess I'll test it on my commando alt and if it works passably, said character will gain a direction to funnel sp into. I definitely find it passable, but very situational. It's one of those suit fittings that although rarely used, it's never deleted. I've pulled it out a few times just to mess with people's heads from long range with no expectation of a kill, just an excuse to use something different. It won't be a primary fitting anyway, as like the plasma cannon, it's more ideal as an individual weapon on a lighter suit. Lol, although, being a mobile morter is fun, especially when ya use your AR to blast the enemy that decided they've had enough of getting shell shocked and come for ya.

Ar and laser used to be my main commando fit, and I still run it on and off, but since the rail rifle was introduced I've been running either a burst AR or rail instead of the laser alot. Since the laser has an optimal less than the rail and the user is very easy to spot, yeh, I've had to many silent rages about it. But, a few commandos with lasers, lol, that's something I want to try.

Nope, you need to max out Engineering and then do a bit of fitting optimization unless you want to use lower grade gear. Just do exactly as I listed to use the least amount of SP on fitting skills. And pro tip regarding proto commando with level 5 engineering: Don't bother taking Dropsuit Core Upgrades past level 5. That extra 1% gained at level 5 will not be enough to bump you up any in PG. I'm using a modified fitting tool to figure this all out but hopefully there should be some really good user friendly versions out by 1.8 for you to test out stuff on your own, unless you just want to use my wonky modified version.

Stoneman42 Sad Panda Solutions 2	Posted - 2014.01.30 22:18:00 - [655] - Quote Stoneman42 here.. I spec'd into the Commando from the first day it came out just about. Despite its current limitations, I have loved every minute of it. I'm still not proto, but I'm 100% positive that is the first thing that I will be doing once the update hits. I would love to trade the points I have in the Logi and Assault suits to get it right away with the update. I pretty have a dozen or more fittings with different weapon/equipment combos with my Commando, a couple of Logi and Assault fittings. But I run the Commando about 90% of the time.
