So I can reload an RR 25% faster .. WOOP DEE ******* DOO .. why would I waste 2.6m SP for that ?

The Caldari should get the gallente bonus and the gallente should get the ROF bonus.




OMG NOCTURNAL YOUR SOOOOO SMAART

RR don't fire in straight lines , there is actually dispersion

As I said in the OP ..

Caldari Assault

-Shield Tank
-Hit and Run

Pop out from cover kill a few people .. get noticed, get shot at , go back behind cover/retreat to a different location .. reload whilst I wait for shields to regen and then repeat .. even when I had no sp invested in the reload skill my shields still took longer to regen than it took for me to reload .. its a completely useless bonus.

Unlike most people I don't dual Tank or armor tank for max eHP so I don't stand around in the open engaging multiple enemies strafing around reloading .. its all done behind cover and if for some reason I run out of clip ammo .. I switch to my sidearm ..

I can invest alot less SP and get a 25% faster reload just from the RR reload skill .. just like everyone else .. 2.6m is way too much for such a minor bonus ..

Anyone with experience in using the Cal Assault will tell you the current bonuses to shield recharge rate and shield extenders is way better than this reload bonus

Hers some info

Current Cal assault max lvl + max lvl regulators requires 2 complex shield regulators to get the shield recharge delay down to 2.09 seconds, when you take into consideration it then takes a further 2/3 seconds to recharge 400 shields that gives you over 5 seconds to wait .. even with no sp in the RR reload skill it takes less than 5 seconds ...

Taking away the current extender and recharge rate bonus will increase the time it takes for shields to regen to full .. what use is reloading faster if it takes even longer to regen than before ?? Reload speed isn't an issue in the current build and its going to be even less of an issue if these proposed changes take effect !!

I can't believe some moron actually liked your post .. that makes 2 idiots with no idea what they are talking about who've replied to me ..

I know the bolded text is harsh but when someone clearly puts no thought into their comment after you've spent time researching and thinking about it, then it gets a bit frustrating

Same vid right here, it can be seen firing perfectly straight, unlike the AR/CR without sharpshooter that spray everywhere regardless of where you are aiming.

Caldari aren't intended to be armor tanked .. sure you can change it into an armor tank but its bonuses should stick towards its racial playstyle

You can shield tank a Gal assault but you wouldn't give it a shield bonus just because some people use it in a certain way

My personal idea for a Caldari bonus would be to first balance the RR by increasing the spool time, then giving the Cal Ass' a bonus to spool time.

It is after all the major characteristic of the weapon.

As for the Gal I've never run shotty so I cant help there. Also seems really unfair to add nothing whatsoever for the PC so perhaps giving it something like +2/3 to mag size at proto level(?)
