Just thinking about commandos and their uses and wonderign if they could be used in an AV suit kinda way as well as their general 'assault with 2 guns' setups by giving them a bonus to AV? obv the only one left out atm is Amarr seeing as they don't have any AV weapons in the game atm but my thoughts were (ontop of their current bonus)
Caldari 2% Swarm Launcher damage per level or 10% lock range per level Gallente 3% Plasma Cannon damage per level (although there really is no hope for this thing) Minmatar +1 carry/active explosive equipment per level or +5% damage to explosive equipment per level Amarr TBA?
just seems that the commando suits are the perfect fit for an AV suit and a little added bonus would help exapand their roles a little

Like the rifles we will get for every weapon a racial model. I think the next to come are the Amar and Gallente Heavy weapons.
When this will happen for the AV weapons Swarm launchers ( i think they are caldari,and i don't know if the plasma canon counts as a AV and from witch race it comes) then it would be logical to change the existing damage bonus the commandos have to all the light&sidearm weapons from there race. |

yeah that was kinda where i was going. the plasma cannon is Gallente and its basically DUSTs version of an RPG so i'd say potential AV. eventually we'll hopefully get racial Swarm Launchers too but that could be a long way in the future.

You seriouly think the Commando role is "assault with two light weapons"?
Additionally I am not really a fan of the whole Commando = AV based suit.

Good luck to you if you use a commando as an Assault with 2 light weaponsGǪTheir role is a weapons platform with legs really. I've found Caldari Commando with sniper and swarms to be effective at locking down an area. Pop heads off and chase away vehicles.
If the pilot comes at me, my 2 light damage mods reminds him that hardeners just got nerfed.

I run swarms and RR on my cal commando with triage hives. Works pretty well for post up play but I prefer to run around in an assault or scout suit.
Also, I think Minmatar mandos get a bonus to swarms. |

Doubt it unless that Tanker is an absolute idiot.
As I like to point out to Aero all the time HAV are the Commando's hard counter.

3rd bonus for Amarr commando would be 5% reduction to heat build of of laser weapons per level.
I don't even know why I bother.

It mostly discourages them. I've been able to take down a few pythons (Can't comment on the fitting/skill of those pilots it surprised me when they got popped). But, yeah haven't gotten a Hav with this fit, but I have kept them awayGǪ

Fixed that minmatar AV oriented bonus to a light weapon. Since you're giving bonuses to a light weapon for the other suits too.

In my experience the commando suit is a very effective AV suit the way it is. Putting AV bonuses on it might make it over powered.
