The overall damage nerfs are fine it effectively reduces TTK by a maximum of just around 40% for people who boosted their damage with every available means.
But at the same time you broke many aspects of the game.
1) Fitting damage mods is useless now the only viable high slot is again shield mods, consequently the damage nerf makes dual tanking the best again.
2) AV is broken even more, Prof changes nerf damage to shields and buff damage to armor and currently a hardened shield tank is way better than a armor tank. Killing a shield tank will be even harder.
3) Single tanked infantry builds are just screwed vs weapons of the opposite style. But fighting a single tanked person with a weapon like the SCR will mean you either destroy them or you hit a brick wall.
Change the proficiency bonus to do something that does not increase damage, moving the assault class bonuses (except Caldari and Gallente because they suck) to the proficiency bonus and adding some more "intuitive" class bonuses would be a great start.
Remove damage modules and apply their bonus to the skill, so 1% per level for now until T2 weapons are released where the skill can alter the weapon itself not the suit.
Keep the damage nerf but for gods sake please fix short range weapon balance. Seriously CCP a AR is like a water gun compared to a RR. There is no advantage to using a short ranged weapons. They are outmatched from 0-100 meters. This means that YES you will have to buff the damage of short range weapons. So TTK at close range will drop. And it can't be something like 10% because even at 10 meters past optimal a short range weapon loses more than 30% of its damage

The following post is purely informational and contains no opinions.
With the new proficiencies, we have the following results:
Blaster: +25% shield, -10% armor
Laser: +35% shield, -20% armor
Projectile: -5% shield, +25% armor
Rail: -10% shield, + 25% armor
Explosive: -20% shield, +35% armor
So shield has 2 modifiers against it, and armor as 3. This would make shield the safest tank of choice. With an inherent and rapid regen, having only 2 of 5 weapon profiles working against you is an advantage.
Though some possible counter points are:
Charge functions are exclusively on shield-bonused weapons (ScR and the incoming Ion Pistol)
Shield modules provide ~50% less hp
Now is the winter of our non-content.

Safest single tank choice, but a well placed charged SCR will wipe shields. Idk about the ion pistol it's range is to short or the charge time is to long to place a good shot.

NO!
Well the only module that works in the highs are shields are you telling me a Gallente assault has to decide to use either shields or ummmm shields? Btw dampener are Gallente tech and in the highs in EVE. And the idea is to have more module choices in both slots.

they had to CODify the system man, it's difficult for ret4rds and cod kids to make a decision: shield mods or damage mods? moments like those cause noobs brain to work/hurt. so in order to save face by not removing the mod altogether they did the next smartest thing and made it redundant. that way no one can cry that CCP is eliminating choices/dumbing down their dumb ass game, they save face by making things like breach AR and dmg mods (which ironically the breach's only chance was to run damage mods) totally redundant while avoiding accusations of item removals to appease a ret4rded guy into not having to make a choice between to modules- EVERYONE WINS BRO!
