NONONnonononononon. This is not balanced. this is a terrible, terrible idea. the Accuracy stat of a weapon means abosultely nothing in this game because the sharpshooter skill exists on the most inaccurate of weapons. Thinking of the Assault Rifle, lvl 5 Gallente Assault Dropsuit Operation, with Assault Rifle Operation 5 and Assault Rifle Sharpshooter 5 ends up with -25% -25% or a total of 56.25% of kick and hip-fire dispersion. The Gallente Assault Rifle will be more accurate, with less kick and less dispersion, than the laser rifle. This game does not need less hip-fire dispersion on any weapon other than the shotgun and even that is debatable. You need to tone this down on every single weapon, remove the sharpshooter skill (it is worse than the chromosome sharpshooter in how it ruins balance), and stay away from these bonuses.

Perhaps the same will be done with Assault shield regen? I really hope it does happen that way. Appia Vibbia for CPM1 [email protected] (checked every Monday/Wednesday/Friday)

[img]http://cdn1.eveonline.com/community/DUST/Medium_Frames.png[/img] This looks terrible. My Gallente Logistics Suit can now get lower Scan Precision than my Minmatar Scout. In fact, My Gallente Logistics Suit still makes a better Scout that my Gallente Scout. AND if I wanted to I could used the Active Scanners to get range on scanning I'm fine with Logistics suit reducing Scan Precision down from 50dB to 45dB but IF AND ONLY IF Scout suit get a reduction in Scan Precision as well. CCP. You disappoint me. You are still giving the Logistics suits the ability to overshadow every other suit. Appia Vibbia for CPM1 AppiaVibbia(at)gmail(dot)com (checked every Monday/Wednesday/Friday)
