LOL yeah when you've got a tanker on your team (you) who can't even watch your back(me) while you hack and is only generally concerned with taking out neutral turrets. Spends more time running over his team mates from reversing than the enemy players.You tend to get a little irate when the enemy blaster tank is ripping you and your squad to shreds and yet you have a "tanker" in your squad , on comms, that is no where to be found.
Lol looses one tank and isnt seen for the rest of the week.Yells all match for someone to take out the "swarmers" and hes in a blaster tank, and then goes on a 15 minute rant about swarm missles and how they should be nerfed.

90% of the tanks I see are militia grade, roll in groups of 3-4, and run over each other to escape when I try to rail them.

Having done tanking for awhile now, I find that I really just don't care for blaster tanks. To me that's just almost cheap. However I do love running gunlogi rails for AV.

I hear ya. I find myself usually always in that situation just resolving myself to cover everyone who is hacking. Sometimes I end up getting more points than if I just did the hack myself, plus we aren't going to all die and loose the objective.

TY, the idea came to me a few weeks ago when I was looking at some Star Wars memes. You seem to be a commando expert. I'm looking after this respec to get out of logistics. What do you think of commando suits?

I'm looking after this respec to get out of logistics. What do you think of commando suits? Haha depends, what's your play style? Weapons of choice? Do you tank or gank? Are a frontline tank or more passive support?
Lots of questions, I suggest spec basic commando pre 1.8, give it a few runs (like a weeks worth of runs) and see how it works for you :)
My biggest advice, is this: before speccing commando, make sure you have at least 2 roles to adv or proto (ie, proto assault and proto logi)

I actually ran a commando suit a long long time ago (way back in very early summer) on a different character and hated it because there were no slots or grenades. I guess for play style I can vary it. I've been running logistics for so long that I've been a kind of "do everything" type of person. REs and gunlogis for AV, also REs for covering objectives, uplinks for strategic respawns, hives for resupply, repper and injector for heals. Plus I always carry a scanner for people to drop OBs in perfect areas, and to light up the radar around objectives for the squad. However, I'm getting sick of that, and tired of being the go to gopher and "hurry up and get over here" person. I'm always hearing "who's got ammo? Who is running uplinks? Anybody got AV? You got any of that stuff Lehon? Got a repper to follow my HMG suit? Hurry up and get to a supply depot to swap suits so you can get that stuff. Man, hurry up and get that gunlogi in here before we get steamrollered at X by these Madrugars." That stuff is getting old and it's a HUGE Isk drain overall, particularly in pubs. Currently have about 14 different suit fittings just for my Callogi. It's nuts.
So play style doesn't really matter. I've been a just run and gun person. I've stood and directly played weapon ranges with RR, picking people off from max distances from in buildings. I also have done sniping on an alt. Did shotgunning long ago when it actually was fun. Used to do forge gunning also. About the only guns I haven't done much with are MD, HMG, and most side arms.

Pick your 2 fav weapons, and put the basic variants on the basic commando. Equip a compact hive.
If your rolling solo, stick with the pack of blues, make sure there is at least 3-5 blues between you and the closest red.
In a squad, stick near the logi, a logi + commando = god mode that tanks only dream of ^.^
I'll be on tomorrow in commando squadron if you want to squad :)

I was thinking in terms of weapons, a RR and assault CR wouldn't be a bad combination. RR for the long range picks, ACR for close encounters. Way back I used to carry AR and shotgun, but neither of those are of much effect anymore sadly. Going to have to wait for respec though as I just sunk a large portion of SP into tanks and level 4 core electronics for suits.

However, I'm getting sick of that, and tired of being the go to gopher and "hurry up and get over here" person. I'm always hearing "who's got ammo? Who is running uplinks? Anybody got AV? You got any of that stuff Lehon? Got a repper to follow my HMG suit? Hurry up and get to a supply depot to swap suits so you can get that stuff. Man, hurry up and get that gunlogi in here before we get steamrollered at X by these Madrugars." That stuff is getting old and it's a HUGE Isk drain overall, particularly in pubs. Currently have about 14 different suit fittings just for my Callogi. It's nuts.
So play style doesn't really matter. I've been a just run and gun person. I've stood and directly played weapon ranges with RR, picking people off from max distances from in buildings. I also have done sniping on an alt. Did shotgunning long ago when it actually was fun. Used to do forge gunning also. About the only guns I haven't done much with are MD, HMG, and most side arms. Alrighty. Pick your 2 fav weapons, and put the basic variants on the basic commando. Equip a compact hive. If your rolling solo, stick with the pack of blues, make sure there is at least 3-5 blues between you and the closest red. In a squad, stick near the logi, a logi + commando = god mode that tanks only dream of ^.^ I'll be on tomorrow in commando squadron if you want to squad :) I was thinking in terms of weapons, a RR and assault CR wouldn't be a bad combination. RR for the long range picks, ACR for close encounters. Way back I used to carry AR and shotgun, but neither of those are of much effect anymore sadly. Going to have to wait for respec though as I just sunk a large portion of SP into tanks and level 4 core electronics for suits. There's those LP suits if you want ![Blink](https://forums.dust514.com/Images/Emoticons/ccp_blink.png)

Squadmate continues to hack with me.

No response.
"Goose flipping darnet!!!! I'll kill him my-" as I stop the hack, I get killed.
Squadmate dies right beside me.
We lose the hack. Amen to that.
One thing this game has taught me. You can't force teamwork. Unless it is group AV in a C.F. then the kill goes to the guy throwing AV Grenades while I lose FG suits.
Otherwise I'm playing a mini-game of guest what the blue-dots are going to do.
But on those days that have good squad cohesion it's the best feeling on earth. My biggest reason to play this game since the Devs are doing their best to screw everything else up.
Here, have some candy and a Like. :-)
