Zahle Undt Bullet Cluster 1159	Posted - 2014.03.28 21:02:00 - [1] - Quote Agree or disagree? I had hopes the commandos would be good viable suits without being OP, but I am not noticing my 2% per level damage bonus and I generally feel like I have to "work harder" for kills and to survive than I do in either my assault suits and definitely my scout suit. I'm not a very good player so maybe it is just me, but like so many other new thing this build I wonder what the pulse of the community on this is. Oh and by the way you all are welcome for my scrub self using cal commando almost exclusively the little I've played during this event. You all should split your ISK profits from killing me with me Most tankers are like sand people. They frighten easily, but will quickly return...and in greater numbers.

Aero Yassavi Praetoriani Classiarii Templares Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris 7822	Posted - 2014.03.28 21:05:00 - [3] - Quote I've been doing well with the commando since Uprising 1.2 and my performance only went up with 1.8. I wouldn't say it's hard mode, just probably not the best role for you personally. Either that or you need to keep working at it and learn how to maximize your strengths and minimize your weaknesses.

I'm definitely not giving up and its not like I am doing terrible either, I'm going positive with my adv. cal commandos, just not doing as well as in my other suits (gal logi excluded because I haven't used it since Tuesday). You are probably right I gotta adjust my playstyle with that suit. They are definitely squishy though. Assault health, logi speed, with sentinel profile and hit box. Most tankers are like sand people. They frighten easily, but will quickly return...and in greater numbers.
Broonfondle Majikthies Dogs of War Gaming Zero-Day 1032	Posted - 2014.03.28 21:24:00 - [6] - Quote Commando is great You just have to remember your support and not front line Real hard more is still Min Scout - eWar scout with no bonuses to eWar "...where Bylothgar the Ill-postured was made King of the People With No Name But Decent Footwear"

I fit my comando with RR and ARR and all too often I am going in there with my ARR like I would with an assault but without the speed to get in gank a clone or 2 and grab some cover. And my commando has about the same exact EHP as my Amarr assaults Most tankers are like sand people. They frighten easily, but will quickly return...and in greater numbers.
Patrick57 Holdfast Syndicate Amarr Empire 6277	Posted - 2014.03.28 21:47:00 - [10] - Quote I think the bonus is really good for any weapon, since the damage of every rifle was nerfed. They'd be even better if they weren't so slow.

Emperor1349 Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 56	Posted - 2014.03.28 21:50:00 - [11] - Quote I find it harder to survive being so slow, use to that minmatar assault speed and jumping over rails to avoid fighting 2 or more at at once. But I'm using a min commando now with a Cr and Md, its fun to use, but I still say the lack of modules kill the suit, just like before. Also a grenade slot are you kidding me even the medic suit has grenades :) If you have a poor gun game no proto suit can help you. If you have a good gun game no proto suit is needed.

How's the Commando Six? Are there more people or you guys went your separate ways? Also AGREED. I've been saying this for a while when everyone kept saying "lol commandos will be the best slayers all the time." Commandos don't have the same versatility as other suits being both heavy weight and restricted to offensive capabilities.

da GAND L.O.T.I.S. D.E.F.I.A.N.C.E 608	Posted - 2014.03.28 21:52:00 - [13] - Quote Bit more difficult to get around in a commando suit for sure, but I'm doing alright in my Minmatar commando suit with the mass driver + combat rifle combo. Don't nerf heavies, instead do This

Henchmen21 Planet Express LLC 815	Posted - 2014.03.28 21:54:00 - [15] - Quote Skilled into gal command to level one for the event, threw on a AR/LR combo and was greatly impressed. Next thing I know I dumped my logi suit SP into em. Was waiting to see the changes they made to medium suits before spending it but I'll be able to save it back up by that time anyway. CCP you better nail 1.8, as it stands 1.7 is a total disaster. Henchmen21: Infantry Gotyougood Ufkr: Vehicles

Alaika Arbosa Matari Combat Research and Manufacture Inc. Interstellar Murder of Crows 1887	Posted - 2014.03.28 22:00:00 - [19] - Quote I've been having fun with my M/1 Heavy Assault (aka Commando). I haven't been doing too terrible with it either, most of the matches that I have used it primarily, I have been 1.80+ KD. I run it basically the same way that I ran the M/1 Assault pre-1.8 (I haven't used the Assault since 1.8 released). Isk positive too. Why are people surprised when I pick them up with a Wiyrkomi on my Heavy Assault? Arzadu Akbar Motherfuckers!!!! Closed Beta Bittervet Bomber
Awesome Pantaloons Lokapalas. 393	Posted - 2014.03.28 22:00:00 - [20] - Quote Definitely not hard mode. I've been using advanced Amarr with Elm and CRD-9.

Tupni Capital Acquisitions LLC Dirt Nap Squad. 78	Posted - 2014.03.28 22:05:00 - [22] - Quote A little more HP than most (sometimes), less customization in modules, a larger, slower target with all the disadvantages of a heavy but less HP, two light weapons, whatever those bonuses are supposed to be that I think I read aren't actually taking effect yet.... Leaning toward hard mode.
I-Shayz-I I-----I 2752	Posted - 2014.03.28 22:09:00 - [23] - Quote The amarr commando is definitely the best one if you go with any of them. I can't figure out a good fitting for my minmatar one though...just know that using a mass driver on that thing is suicide. I personally feel that the damage bonus isn't noticble enough. It should be more lik 15-25% at level 5, not 10%. Links: 7162 wp with a Repair Tool! I make logistics videos!

For all we know its not applying the 10% bonus, just like the game is not properly applying the amarr assault bonus or the minmatar assault bonus Most tankers are like sand people.

JP Acuna Pendejitos Canis Eliminatus Operatives 103	Posted - 2014.03.28 22:34:00 - [28] - Quote Pretty hard for me. Maybe i still need to adapt to the suit, but i've been ISK negative since i started using it. I lost over 5m only on wednesday because i had to stick to the ADV since the STD had no slots until thursday. Maybe i'm getting better now, i don't know, i just paused and started playing scout again. The commando makes me look like a complete nooooob.

Denn Maell PIanet Express Canis Eliminatus Operatives 237	Posted - 2014.03.29 01:32:00 - [32] - Quote Calamando is my Sniper fit now. Doubled with the swarm launcher and I've been doing pretty well. I tried the Rail Rifles with it, but I just don't feel any sort of buff to them. Maybe need those last 2 levels, but I don't know. The most OP weapon on the Dust Battle Field: One good logi, one rep tool, and a heavy.
Chunky Munkey Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 3719	Posted - 2014.03.29 02:04:00 - [33] - Quote The extra HP is countered by the larger hitbox. So realistically you have the survivability of a medium frame with reduced effectiveness for tanking modules. It makes typical survival strategies a little counter intuitive, and it's for that reason that you'll get the best out them with flank & gank builds instead. No.

Medic 1879 Forsaken Immortals Top Men. 1980	Posted - 2014.03.29 15:07:00 - [35] - Quote I was using the LP Amarr commando for the event and I had fun running LR and ScR so I put one level into Min commando and so far I am finding it really fun running MD and CR. Its a good 3rd suit for me as well I have Gal logi for support, Gal scout for sneaky stuff and AV and Min commando for when I want more fire power and I am enjoying it immensely. CR is a great all rounder and the MD is fantastic against cloaked scouts. Lead Diplomat for Forsaken Immortals.

You all should split your ISK profits from killing me with me I always wondered if we even get those bonuses. There is really no way to check.

Skullmiser Vulcansu the third day Galactic Skyfleet Empire 75	Posted - 2014.03.29 16:31:00 - [38] - Quote I got the standard Amarr Comando for the event, I use the laser rifle and scrambler rifle, and I like to carry Allotek nanohives. If I find some cover, then I get lots of kills, and I can repair myself very well. I can do the same thing with my Logistics suit, though, and carry a Laser rifle and Ion Pistol, but the commando is probably better for when I am not in a squad. If this game was fun, I wouldn't be playing it.
Nothing Certain Villore Sec Ops Gallente Federation 379	Posted - 2014.03.29 16:40:00 - [39] - Quote I've only found a couple of fits with the commando suit that I think another suit won't do better. I have an MD/MD fit, because the big drawback on the MD is the number of shots, this doubles the time until reload. The other is Swarms/CR. I'm thinking of a Swarms/Swarms suit, I'd be completely defenseless but I could crank out a lot of shots. Tank spam isn't so bad so probably not. Because, that's why.

Reign Omega BurgezzE.T.F General Tso's Alliance 256	Posted - 2014.03.30 08:03:00 - [46] - Quote I run gallente commando and I'm killing. Killing and not dying often. I have a plethora of light weapons proto and equipment to fall back on, making it possible to run a variety of fittings in most engagements. Albeit May not be the best fit for EVERY situation, it's darn good for most. Long range? I got tactical rifles, combat rifles, and even snipers. Cqc? Got shotties and acr, got swarms and the plc for those pesky vehicles. I have hives, needles, uplinks, rep tools mines and even a stupid clack. It's the true omni soldiers dream. I only run advanced and I have around 1k hp. True all my core skills are maxed, and my fitting modules are well rounded, maybe it's just good to me because of that.. Tl;dr I love my GalCom. Balling.
Reign Omega BurgezzE.T.F General Tso's Alliance 256	Posted - 2014.03.30 08:07:00 - [47] - Quote Also knowing how to move and when/where is a bonus. I apply scout science to most all of my suits even my heavy. I HAVE slot of tank but am not always trying to use it. And then there's the inevitable, just getting waxed no matter what suit you run.
Lynn Beck Wake N' Bake Inc Top Men. 967	Posted - 2014.03.30 08:52:00 - [48] - Quote I'm used to 700Hp being near my top Hp(minassault) so having 200 shield go to armor isn't that big of a deal. Currently i'm set up for damage and regen with 2 dmg mods(1 if it's a CQC oriented one, with a recharger) Enhanced armor rep, cardiac or shield reg. I refuse to gve honor to your 'god' so therefore i dual tank. Also i feel itchy. Anybody got a tube of Rust-It?

Shield char are meant for strategic combat and less just charge in and get shot but for skilled gunners this suit is awesome hang in there and eventually itll help you improve your play style Return of the caldari is here ^(- .-)

I just realize than Amarr weapons are the only one to deal with this kind of **** (exept mass driver / flaylocks). Time to change Minmatarr damage profile

I can't figure out a good fitting for my minmatar one though...just know that using a mass driver on that thing is suicide. I personally feel that the damage bonus isn't noticble enough. It should be more lik 15-25% at level 5, not 10%. I'm waiting for more hofixes before making a judgement on that. For all we know its not applying the 10% bonus, just like the game is not properly applying the amarr assault bonus or the minmatar assault bonus I already tested it, and it is applying the bonus. It's the fact that an extra 10% bonus doesn't give you the same kind of extra damage output as two complex damage mods did in 1.7 I want commandos to feel scary and dangerous, not laughable.

1pawn dust Algintal Core Gallente Federation 42	Posted - 2014.03.31 12:10:00 - [54] - Quote I would agree its hard mode, for the sake of 2 light weapons and an ill fitting suit name you need to deal with - big hit box - crap mobility - crap ehp (especially since heavy suit -_-) - low slot count - bad suit bonus I run a caldari commando, to run it as a true commando i need to fire a complex cardiac regulator in the low and i rock the specialist RR and Wyrm. The RR is great with the bonus, but the whole deal with battlefield adaptability goes out of the window, no bonus for Wyrms, (the minnie gets that and a CR lolwtfhax) and thus, for a RR with a pre 1.8 dmg mod I get a slow assault suit with around 800 eHP, full proto fit so the isk and LP cost is high and really its only my gun game that stops it from being a Silver Magnate cruising the drone regions. To think I could have went scout or slayer logi, oh how I curse myself.
