Yes, I did kill Archduke Ferdinand. I used my nova knives.

Don't use a TAR, use an SCR if that's what you want to play like. A combat rifle or rail rifle would be a better option tbh.
The basic frame is not very good. Your regen is horrible. Although you can tank a lot of fire for a bit, you will take forever to regen to that point - without logi support, single rep will be a pain. I recommend running two repairers and being more careful in your engagements. With a TAR you should be able to hang at range more, so it should fit you being able to engage more often and minimising damage to you.

Hrm... I was going to go into the assault suit as soon as I maxed out my core skills on this one. Why shouldn't I skill for it? |

Damage mods have a stacking penalty, so that third damage mod gives you around 5% extra damage.
I would switch a single plate for another repper.
Use a standard sidearm so you can fit a better nanohive. Normal hives are bleh, K-2 and above is required.
Shield regeneration bonus for Gallente Assault is about as useful as Sharpshooter for Nova Knives.

Oh yeah, I was gonna max out engineering and electronics after I do core, and then max out my assault rifle skills first. I hope 1.8 will be here before then =P. |

I'd drop the GLU for any other rifle.
I'd also drop a complex dmg mod for a complex extender so you can have some buffer for your armour to rep.
Better yet, drop a plate for a enhanced or complex rep, and leave the dmg mods where they are.
Edit:didn't see you already had 2 reps. Forget the last part.

So your only suggestion would be to switch the rifle I'm using? |

Yeah, you'll die more...but you could die all 150 times in a skirmish match and you'll still come out ISK-positive. Hell, you could be greedy like me and throw on a Republic remote explosive for the low, low cost of a few hundred ISK per suit.
Seriously...I have a proto suit similar to yours, but I NEVER use it in battle--it's just too damn expensive, and it doesn't really make that big of an impact on survivability (an extra second may spare you a death or two per match, but that's a lot of ISK to sacrifice in return!)

Solid, but I would still advise against the GLU-5. An RS-90 CR, SB-39 RR, GEK-38 AR, etc, would all serve you better. If you want to keep that same playstyle use a scrambler rifle. You might not be able to fit the CRW-04, but it's a powerful weapon even at the standard tier.

I normally do run a militia fit when I play normal public matches, but when I play faction warfare I do like to use my prototype fittings. |

I do have a GEK-38 fit that is the same as the original fit I posted, but a GEK-38 instead of the TAC. (read;)

I just don't get the shield extender. It's only 66 points. Is there something I'm missing? With the two complex reppers I feel like going for shields is pointless. Grab the +5% damage, right? What don't I get? |

It may not seem like it but 66 HP shields is a lot. It helps to stop your opponents from wearing down your armor so much from engagement to engagement. Which alows time for your repaire to work. You don't equip two repairers because you need a sufficient HP buffer so that you can "stand and deliver" which was what this suit class was designed to do. I never equip more than two DMs on any suit it's a waste of time, not to mention buffer.
Mostly I use a scout, it is just my preferred play style, but now and again I bust out my assault gk.0 (usually when somebody p***es me off). Earlier to day, I was just minding my own buisness in my Dren scout with a std RR (my normal gig), when all of a sudden I get vaporized with no time to react. I look up at the kill feed and see "kaalakiota rail rifle". Well, that's enough to p*** me off. I spawn in with my assault gk.0. Went 32/2. Moral of the story: don't shoot me with proto type weapons.

There's a thought. I think what my plan is as follows: max out base fitting skills
max out assault rifle fitting skills (light weapons V, assault rifle proficiency V, and assault rifle fitting optimization V)
if (1.8 === released) { max out ion pistol fitting skills (ion pistol V, pistol proficiency V, and ion pistol fitting optimization V)
} else{ cry } Armor Plates V

Dont FORGET the ALT GAL Commando suit! For when there is Vehicle presence!: With AR + Plasma cannon
(remember those 25% reload speed? + the Natural Passive Reload Skill (+15%) ? = Powerful PC)
ok im leaving now.......

66 hp is one RR shot or one TAC shot. Idk... I don't want to be a bother, and I don't want you to have to write a novel, but could you explain maybe in a theoretical example. I just don't see the benefit vs the faster ttk on such a small clipped weapon. |

Okay, this might be a fundamental misunderstanding then. So is HP completely king? should I be looking at my HP as my primary resource? |
