The minmatar bonus is the most stupid of the bunch!
It improves nade spam without helping the weapons weaknesses (low alpha damage). The Min Assault will be the suit of the coward roof spammer... ridiculous.
I'd rather give the suit a DIRECT Hit bonus for explosive Minmatar weapons. This would make the Flaylock decent again, and it would give skilled MD users a good alpha bonus to win those fights against the rifle users. but it wouldn't help the spamming crowd, since SPLASH damage would stay the same!
As it is right now, the only positive is the CR bonus, since that weapon desperately needed a clip buff!

Increased base direct/splash damage from 242/116 to 300/145
Though I like more damage to the base MD's, I still think the increase in clip size is too much for the explosives.
Mind I'm using the MD a lot (exclusively until the CR came out) but I think the reload after 6-8 rounds gives the opponent room to breath and counter attac a MD user. If you take that out the MD will be op, and the new fit of the month.
I DON'T WANT THAT
As the most people in game, I think Grenades are fun, but spam is not.
I would prefer more direct damage, and leaving the splash as is to be honest. The best MD right now is the Breach. You have to aim, you can't spam it, the only thing needed for that one would be increased fire rate and an 8 round clip (but not more).

Desperately needed a clip buff? That's the only thing standing between the CR and world domination.
Well, since damage seems to get nerfed for all rifles, it won't be as bad would it?
Also on that note, can we rename the combat rifle to projectile rifle since all rifles should mimick their ammo/function in their name...?

absolutely not!
MD should not be easy hit mode. The splash area is big enough on all MDs period. If you can't hit the broadside of a barn with it I suggest you learn how to aim! |

Why not call it the Bullet Hose?
Nah, that's already the nickname of the HMG... lol |
