I personally thank you for all the effort CCP is doing in getting the Dropsuits right.
Now it seems every time you ''redo'' something you leave some players not convinced.

LEt me make your JOB EASIER and give you the formula for ASSAULT Success.

Assault [5% reduction to PG/CPU cost of light/sidearm weapons]
- Caldari Assault: +5% effectiveness on Shield Extenders and Regulators
- Gallente Assault: +5% effectiveness to Armor plates and Repairers
- Minmatar Assault: +5% to projectile light/sidearm and +1 to Minmatar explosive weaponry clip size per level.
- Amarr Assault: 5% reduction to laser weaponry heat build-up per level.


These are bonuses EVERYONE will be happy to have in their assault and will give these med frames offensive/defensive advantages over their opponents.

Either the ones i proposed or GIVE all of them Weapon specific bonuses like the Amarr and Minmatar ones.

TY for reading

More HP is always situational though even in the old TTK environments more HP was rather situational because there are so many times that extra 120 hp was not going to save your posterior.

These bonuses to indeed increase the DPS of the respective weapons by minimizing the time spent not firing, but this is not the case for the AR. A reduction in dispersion and kick can actually hinder it's ability to apply DPS by making the gun more laser accurate and thus more aiming required. I personally refuse to increase sharpshooter on my AR because that dispersion is essential to how I use the weapon.

The Minmatar bonus is by far the best bonus when it comes to continuous dps, the ACR alone can maintain 164 rounds every 10 seconds. While the Caldari bonus gives the Rail rifle the best reload speed of all the guns.

But the Gallente is by far the worst bonus because it doesn't build upon a weakness or a strength of the gun. The best bonuses for the AR would be a rof/reload/damage/clip. Dispersion and kick are definitely NOT good bonuses, like I said previously dispersion is necessary for a CQC weapon, while kick is easily managed on any weapon. Also I don't know what you mean by the Gallente can go "full strafe" it's tanking style is very detrimental to that form of gameplay, in fact that gameplay style is best suited to the Minmatar Assault.
