straya fox Sad Panda Solutions 328	Posted - 2014.04.07 10:02:00 - [31] - Quote If it's so good how come it is rarely ever used? I skilled back into it out of stubbornness, not because it's 'great'. Not sure why you are making this thread but it's all wrong.
straya fox Sad Panda Solutions 328	Posted - 2014.04.07 10:12:00 - [32] - Quote I was just looking at your fit out- The Cal scout has same shield as you, same regen, same weapons, same dampening plus a cloak and is much faster and to top it off i have put nothing in the low slots of the cal scout yet... edit- I forgot to mention the scanning, can't forget the scanning.

I only really run Cal assault and i am just completely in disagreement with you, not violently in disagreement but still enough to bother typing this out.

straya fox Sad Panda Solutions 329	Posted - 2014.04.07 10:36:00 - [36] - Quote I'm not entirely sure, but i feel it should be shield related. Regulation/ recharge etc on top of the reload bonus

Regulation/ recharge etc on top of the reload bonus like a 2-5% bonus per lv to shield extenders/reguators or perhaps a 3% reduction to the CPU costs of shield modules I feel that if there were a bonus to shield regen mods, it might go to the minmatar, they do the high speed stuff, cald is more about shield capacity

Roy Ventus Axis of Chaos 1631	Posted - 2014.04.07 14:03:00 - [43] - Quote Glad to hear someone likes it. I keep saying again and again how much the reload bonus makes sense considering that the Caldari's weapon favor mid-range battles over CQC. If you're caught in CQC you're at a major disadvantage, so you want to be able to reload fast enough that the enemy can't just run up on you(which is what I would do) when you need to change clips.

Off Topic @ OP: Been thinking of the Cal Assault myself, despite the forum hate that reload speed for the weapon types I like does seem very attractive to meGÇª I have noticed the pattern as well, although I was not sure what the hypothetical stats were. Do you have anything in mind? Generally speaking, it looks like the preference for high slots/low slots on scouts and heavies are being shifted somewhat. I think we will see something like the Caldari sporting what used to be the minmatar setup with many more highs than lows. Minmatar look to be more balanced with slightly more highs than lows (fitting as the description says they are more versatile, and will allow minassault to sport more in their lows for speed and profile). Gallente look to be getting very low-slot heavy while Amarr look to be a reversed Minmatar (fairly balanced but more lows than highs; CCP is thinking they should armor tank and use damage mods I guess). These are just some general guesses of where I think the Assaults are going, not necessarily what I would like to see. No clue how to guess the Logi suits, tho. The most OP weapon on the Dust Battle Field: One good logi, one rep tool, and a heavy.

Boot Booter Kang Lo Directorate Gallente Federation 494	Posted - 2014.04.13 22:38:00 - [47] - Quote Well I have a minmatar assault and I am as well loving the suit the way it is (except for those two lows, you Caldari don't realize how good you have it). Anyway, although I like the suit right now I still think assaults need another racial bonus. All the other suits have two, why shouldn't we? This being said it shouldn't be anything ground breaking as to make assaults OP. I'd recommend something passive, like the scouts have, except for assaults it would improve suit regen. Honestly though at 30 mil sp every suit I use is good, so I don't care as long as I still keep my precious 100 round clip SMG. In case anyone is interested here's the added assault bonus I have suggested before. Amarr: +0.75 hp/s armor repair per lvl, - 2% shield delay and depleted delay per lvl Caldari: +10% shield recharge per lvl Gallente +1 hp/s armor repair per lvl Minmatar: - 4% shield delay and depleted delay per lvl, +0.4 hp/s armor repair per lvl (maybe these would be OP though... What do I know though) SMG Specialist

As a dedicated assault player, i have but one thing to ask of CCP. 1. Please, for the love of all that is that is holy in New Eden, DO NOT buff my Caldari Assault Suit. Thats all i want. Buff Minmatar, Gallente, and Amarr all you want. give them OP stats, OP passives, OP slot layout, I dont care. But please please please, don't touch my Caldari Assault. I like it just the way it is. The new bonuses from 1.8 make it feel good to use, and really fun to. So yes, in closing, and one more time, NO TOUCHY CCP. Seriously, hands off my C-1, C/1, and ck.0. I don't want a buff. I see what you did there. Good thinking , +1. (For the turds: If it gets buffed, no matter how balanced it is, people will QQ and it will end up Heavily nerfed) Well played. lolz, while i agree with the #heavynerf theory, im serious in my not wanting the buff to my cald suits. i like the slot layout just the way it is, LOVE the bonuses from skilling into lv5, and have enough PG and CPU to fit everything id ever want to. it doesnt need a buff. it feels very solid just the way it is. Soo... you DO want the caldari assault suit not to be touched (blink, blink), I see. Please CCP, do NOT buff the caldari assault suit. Blink. :) you are welcome. I can see you Buy a tank Buy an assault dropship
