While I still believe damage bonuses are not a good bonus for the Commanos (thread here with alternate suggestion), if they are they need to retweak how the bonus applies. Currently, the following commandos have the bonus to the following weapons,
Amarr: Scrambler Rifle, Laser Rifle Minmatar: Combat Rifle, Mass Driver, Swarm Launcher (a Caldari weapon) Caldari: Rail Gun, Sniper Rifle Gallente: Assault Rifle
The Minmatar get a bonus towards a Caldari weapon because technically swarm launchers are explosives. Meanwhile, the Gallente commando gets no bonuses towards plasma cannons or shotguns because, even though they are both plasma weapons, neither are plasma - blaster.
Would it not be better if the racial bonuses were,
Amarr: 2% damage to Amarr weapons per level Minmatar: 2% damage to Minmatar weapons per level Caldari: 2% damage to Caldari weapons per level Gallente: 2% damage to Gallente weapons per level
This is essentially the same thing but more appropriately associates weapons with the proper suit and doesn't leave any weapons behind.

The current planned Gallente bonus makes the PLC slightly useful while your explanation doesn't even make sense as it is false lore wise and just seems as a way the hurt the already bad PLC. What are you talking about? The current planned Gallente Commando bonus does not cover the PLC, so it makes it no more useful than what it already is. Meanwhile, if they changed the bonus to how I described it, the PLC would be 10% stronger in the hands of a Gallente Commando.

also, the minmatar commonly use missiles and projectiles, so the bonus isn't nonsense.
also, the damage bonus is necessary without the high-slots to make up for it. Do you see how much you contradict yourself? maybe the manufacturer doesn't matter to you, but in the grand scheme of things (and no time soon) it will strangely matter. Swarm Launchers are manufactured by Caldari corporations, not Minmatar corporations. That's why we have Wirykomi Swarm Launchers instead of Boundless Swarm Launchers, for example.
