With the introduction of the Gallente Ion Pistol being more than capable of taking down enemies with it's dual firing mode AND the addition to Gallente suits getting a built in armor repair (focusing on repair over armor is lore correct, thank you CCP for that change) we are one addition away from being the OP master race.
Wait until we get drones and sentry guns, just wait. It will be a glorious day to rock Gallente!
I'm just so giddy with joy I had to make a pointless thread about it, I apologize for the clutter.
Gallente suits have come so far from being absolute ****, to what they are becoming....being here since E3 build, it brings a tear to this old veterans eye.
Caldari 514 is now officially a thing of the past.... |

It is a rapid fire pistol as well a devastating charge shot weapon (like the Scrambler).
See here for stats
It's not without it's drawback though, requiring a long cool down time for the charge shot. |

Source?
Didn't they already say that pvp drones were not going to happen due to hardware/software limitations?
Sentry guns as a deployable Eq would be cool, but arn't we supposed to be getting droppable turrets (small/medium/large) as callable support through off map support?
No time in the near future for drones no, but in the future when the game ports for PS4 we might finally get them.

I imagine Assault and Logistic suits are getting the bonus as well.
Most likely two for each but possibly even 3 r/s on Logistics. |

Most likely not, having the repair tool bonus is already a good enough bonus already on top of the native armor regain.
Level 5 armor repair on a scout suit with a complex repair tool will yield 9.25 armor repair per second.
Let's just let that sink in.
Has it sunk in yet?
That's right.

I think we are, they have been small turrets in the past so they should come back.
Sentry guns would allow for protection in an area without the using a an extra player to guard a post.
I can only imagine a Logistics suit and a Sentry gun holding down Bravo in Line Harvest.
It sends tingles through my spine just thinking about it! |

Don't bet on the damage mod thought.
From what I understand they are changing damage modifiers quite a bit.
Whether it be from only doing a specific damage to one type or switching to low slots we will have to see.
I have no problem with Damage modifiers moving to low slots but I'd like to get some decent high slot modules first. |

If they go to low slots caldari is the obvious choice then, which I'd be perfectly okay with. If high slots, even with bonus damage to only one type, gal still the obvious choice imo. Just need to find me a slave min logi to follow me around with a core rep and I'm all set
That bonus Minmatar get to Damage modifiers though I feel is being overlooked by a lot of people.
With the speed, damage, rof of The Minmatar they'll finally live up to their lore.
1.8 will be an exciting time.
All the Assaults seem pretty Balanced except for the Amarr but that could be rearranged easily if it hasn't already been. |

Same, now I haven't wasted SP on suits but I'd gladly take back the SP I was "coaxed" to spend on SMG skills. And since the Gallente assault will no longer get a CPU/PG reduction for all hybrid weapons I have no further use for the Rail Rifle.
I'm quite sure the'll refund our Infantry skills like they did vehicles.
They are changing far too much and adding a whole lot (some being the most basic of things) to not have a refund of infantry skills. |

(( I say that knowing that you are perhaps, alongside Denak and Jakar, are one of the only Gallente worth respecting in this game....odd really))
We are impatiant with slavers that believe their acts are just. ((Hey  , I've been Gallente since day one! I knew they were UP and still specced into them. And although I have access to it, I didn't use Gallente Logi because I'm honorable! Do I not deserve to be on that list?  ))
I think you've made too many jokes about the Amarr to be considered honorable....and for me...well lets just say I got a post locked and because I was talking about the Empress being into BDSM and going into full detail about the libido of the empress.
Can you blame me though? Those cheeks are flawless, on her face and her ass.

Yes but I was defending Amarr all the time as armor bros.
Then why contest to be in the favor of an Amarrian? You some kind of freak? |

Nah, 5 percent damage for the HP of a scout is not worth it. Will be interesting to see what they do with the suits though.
I didn't have the scout suits in mind when making that comment. The scout is still a largely unfinished class even in 1.8 so I'm not making any decisions on it.
The assaults however seem to be getting rounded out perfectly and that's what I was talking about.
Next will be logistics when they get around to infantry again.
Then scouts and/or heavies in a very distant future. |
