Gavr1lo Pr1nc1p TRA1LBLAZERS 364	Posted - 2014.01.31 22:03:00 - [31] - Quote Another thought for the OP would be to bring minmitar and amarr suits in line with caldari and gallente suits. My proposed buffs would be to give a speed buff to the minmitar scout (5%) and a 2% boost to the logi, and perhaps the assault as well, but then also make the same buff to amarr scout speed so that the amarr scout isn't slower than a minmitar assault. and also giving them the highest shield recharge capabilities. For amarr, I would buff all amarr medium frame suits to have 210 armor, 200 shield, to make up for their very low speeds Kills- Archduke Ferdinand Help Shields

Bayeth Mal OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 29	Posted - 2014.02.04 05:32:00 - [35] - Quote I wouldn't mind if AA was adjusted based on weapon type. Spam shot weapons like the AR and especially those that are at a relative range where AA can track a target (as it's a shorter distance to travel on screen/degrees) could be reduced as opposed to say a Shotgun which is firing at very close range where players bouncing around each other have to make more sweeping motions to track their target (thus creating the dilemma of weather to turn sensitivity up or down) but still require timing for accuracy. Same for NK, and maybe scrambler pistol but probably not as it could mess with your head shot capability.
zibathy numbertwo Nox Aeterna Security 382	Posted - 2014.02.04 06:26:00 - [36] - Quote I agree with everything and that makes me happy. I'm tired of ******* clueless morons saying DURRR ONLY RR NEEDS NERF CR IS FINE or DURRR CR NEEDS NERF RR IS FINE HUR HUR HUR or CR AND RR ARE OP SCR IS PERFECT x)))))))))))!!!!! Thank you. Nerf it all. Nerf it all to hell. I gladly accept the AR nerf because the less people using my glorious weapon, the better. I hope something like this gets implemented and the FOTM faggots' tears rain down across the entire galaxy. Long Live Freedom; Long Live the Federation.

I agree, currently the weapons that have aim assist working very well are the ones messing up TTK, i.e. all rifles.The weapons that dont have aim assist, like nova knives, the shotgun, swarm launcher, mass driver, plasma cannon, flaylock etc are all underused. Aim assist is one of the most underrated factors in the game, as it is what allows slow firing weapons like the RR to be so effective at any range, and spray weapons like CR to be so effective at CQC, whereas the shotgun is now a precision weapon compared to most, if not all rifles Kills- Archduke Ferdinand Balance!

Gavr1lo Pr1nc1p TRA1LBLAZERS 479	Posted - 2014.02.08 19:10:00 - [40] - Quote Im going to make my update about dropsuits here because my OP doesnt have enoug chars left in it: Ammarr suits all need a base increase to HP, im thinking 200 shield, 210 armor, as that only makes sense Minmitar suits need an across the board boost to shield regenerative qualities, like 25-50% boost to regeneration and recharge delay Gallente suits will be very good at armor regen if the module changes i suggested are implemented to allow them to stack reppers in the lows, and rep bonuses in the highs, as well as them getting a base rep rate in 1.8, which is a good idea by CCP Caldari suits are getting some love in the shield departement in 1.8, and if my suggested changes to shield go through, they will again become strong shield tankers For scout suits specifically, I will comment due to what is perceived as a great imbalance. Ammarr scouts- these will be a light assault with heavy dampening. A lot of people are complaining because the minmitar assault is faster than the amarr scout, but forget to take into account that they have equal hp (or very close), the amarr scout has a ludicrous amount more stamina, has better dampening, and two equipment slots to boot. However, I beleive that a 15% bonus to base armor HP of the amarr scout is needed to accomodate them better, as well as increase their current bonus to 10%. Minmitar scouts- These are supposed to be speed tanking anarchist scouts with nasty assassination skills. However, due to aim assist, and equal strafing speeds on all suits, this is unacheivable. The minmitar scout needs a 5% bonus to movement and sprint speed, as well as kincats having a greater stacking penalty, but also affecting movement speed by 1/2 of their bonus to sprint speed, so that minmitar scouts are the best speed tankers in the game to go along with their extremely situational bonuses Gallente scouts- These scouts will be FoTM next patch. Sorry, its just going to happen. In my opinion, to reduce this, armor plates simply need the changes that i suggested and they should be ok to go. However, they do receive the best bonuses of any scout suit, have the best loadout and a 3hp/second rep rate, so i think they will get nerfed, unfortunately, especially once nyan san begins to abuse them. I think the best fix would be to make other scouts better to bring them up to the current potential of the gallente scout. SO , int other words, the gallente scout is fine, the other scouts need buffs Caldari scout- Best shield regen of any unit in the game, and can function as a proto active scanner that can carry an assault rail rifle. Will be very powerful, yet easily countered simply due to its inability to speed tank effectively and their glass cannon like build. Having only 2 low slots will limit their FoTM cpacities Kills- Archduke Ferdinand Balance!

McFurious TeamPlayers Negative-Feedback 617	Posted - 2014.02.11 05:27:00 - [42] - Quote I like all these ideas. Especially for ferroscale and reactive plates as well as armor reppers in the highs. Half Irish. Often angry. Closed Beta Masshole

Armor plates aren't getting a buff, per se, however, they are getting a synergising module similar to a regulator for shields. Also, i propose that for each plate being stacked there would be another static penalty of say one second delay to armor repair rate, which doesn't change between tiers, and doesn't exist on ferroscales, and reactives receive only a .5 second delay penalty Kills- Archduke Ferdinand Balance!
Awry Barux Paladin Survey Force Amarr Empire 477	Posted - 2014.02.11 05:32:00 - [44] - Quote Good list except I think you have it backwards on TTK- high TTK = a long time, low TTK = a short time. TTK needs to go UP, not down, and CCP has said as much.

Cat Merc Ahrendee Mercenaries EoN. 6418	Posted - 2014.02.11 05:41:00 - [46] - Quote Armor reps in high slots? Do you even armor tank? This will end in tears, shield tanker tears. Shield regeneration bonus for Gallente Assault is about as useful as Sharpshooter for Nova Knives. Tuna > Tacos

I updated the OP, and it actually would be pretty balanced with the way i put it, as well as keeping base armor rep rates how they will be in 1.8. Mind you, i also said that minmitar and caldari need a huge bonus to shield regen and recharge delay, especially minmitar. Minmitar recharge should be greater than caldari recharge, caldari base shield should be greater than minmitar. Kills- Archduke Ferdinand Balance!

Midas Fool Black Phoenix Mercenaries Legacy Rising 359	Posted - 2014.02.11 19:12:00 - [49] - Quote 90% of this is really, really good. In fact, it's stuff that's kinda obvious and surprising that it hasn't been done yet (I wouldn't doubt most of this is going to be implemented in 1.8 in some form or another). Proper formatting would help make your list easier to read and understand, but good analysis overall. +25 Kill Assist...+25 Kill Assist...+25 Kill Assist...NO HOW WHY
