Boot Booter Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 464	Posted - 2014.04.12 03:00:00 - [1] - Quote So I'm working late tonight doing mindless, repetitive actions trying to get two numbers to match... This got me thinking. Are there any other dedicated minmatar assaults out there? It's very rare that I see anyone that looks like me. You see my love for this suit and general speed / spray and pray tactics pretty much exceeds my love for dust. Am I crazy? Maybe it's because I have have an eye patch or maybe it's the sweet backpack that I store my sweet Matari things in. Anyway I wanted to search for other minmatar assault enthusiasts... Possibly start one of those toolish minmatar assault registry things. Feel free to place your praises and general hatred for everything amarr below. Oh and if you are like me and want to run about spraying and praying with SMGs and whatnot, feel free to add me so we can squad up.
Zahle Undt Bullet Cluster Lokun Listamenn 1316	Posted - 2014.04.12 03:10:00 - [2] - Quote I've run Minnie assault since Uprising launched on my alt. I don't know how dedicated I can be said to be anymore as I also have Gal scout on that character and I don't have to tell you which one is better now. But I still think it might be the most underrated suit in the game. Most tankers are like sand people. They frighten easily, but will quickly return...and in greater numbers.
pagl1u M Maphia Clan Unit Unicorn 591	Posted - 2014.04.12 03:11:00 - [3] - Quote I m a wannabe Min assault, after 1.8 I wanted to skill both Min scout and Min assault but after skilling the scout and all those other skill I needed I didnt have enough sp left for the minassault. I m collecting my SP to skill it so I ll have it in a week or two.

Travis Stanush GunFall Mobilization 96	Posted - 2014.04.12 03:15:00 - [5] - Quote I have a min assault and I love running around killing people with it. With a good buffer on Sheilds and a CR it will rip anyone who isn't prepared to peices.

Dunk Mujunk RestlessSpirits 763	Posted - 2014.04.12 03:18:00 - [9] - Quote Minmatar Assaults were literally the only suits I was skilled into post 1.8. I had cobbled together a semi workable suit, but I p*ssied out with the cpu/pg reductions of 1.8 and jumped ship for Amarr Logi. I don't have any experience with the Matari Assauly post 1.8, but my Amarr logi drops faster now than my Min did before. And thats with close to 300 extra total hp, most of that is armor. As much as I do love the suit, 2 lows is a kick in the balls, even before I had experienced a suit with more. Switzerland is small and neutral. We're more like Germany. Ambitious and misunderstood.

Boot Booter Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 468	Posted - 2014.04.12 03:22:00 - [10] - Quote We make do with our two lows.. Here's the secret to minmatar IMO. We are weak alone but strong in numbers. Put some armor on and don't worry about armor rep. Every minmatar should carry a rep tool to help out fellow minmatar bros. Although the cloak is an interesting idea for the suit. Edit: Ahh I've run into you before dunk. You were a min assault vet like me. I think I recall having a core flaylock vs Duvolles duel with you way back (post flaylock nerf). I'm sad to hear you left the suit and became a dirty amarr though. 1.8 actually made the suit much better with the increased stamina and weapon fitting bonus.

It helps with the play style once you break line of sight cloak and move it makes you invisible to tacnet for most Med/ heavyies. Edit* we are used to low hp values so fitting it doesn't really gimp us

Plus the CPU makes core locus and core rep tool possible as well. Pretty much my pro suit has everything maxed out except for the plate... Complex plates suck.

(Before the new rifles whatever patch that was) I'll probably skill back into Minmatar Assault but right now my main concern is getting my Gal Scout from 3 to 5. Since I got my Min Scout to 5 already.

Chief-Shotty WASTELAND JUNK REMOVAL Top Men. 147	Posted - 2014.04.12 05:30:00 - [20] - Quote Still have my minmatar assault suit. I've had great times with it. Great flanking suit. I just wish i had 4 highs and 3 lows. That way i can fit a shield regulator, CPU upgrade, and a reactive plate to maintain self sufficient flank status but oh well I've found another minmatar toy to play with though. The Min Commando is too much fun for me! Running a Combat Rifle and Mass Driver is just a great one-two punch especially the reload bonus, or swarms for a little vehicle pest control. Of course I have my min assault for those occasions when i need more mobility. Assault suits need to be tweaked post 1.8 though. 8-Time New Eden Mass Driver Champion Min Commando Combat Rifle and Mass Driver = FUN and Tears OMG the Tears!! :)

Broonfondle Majikthies Dogs of War Gaming Zero-Day 1132	Posted - 2014.04.12 06:12:00 - [22] - Quote I play all MInmatar roles My alt is assault (V) and logi (IV). I play assault 80% of the time on that character. Its ******* kick ass The saving to system requirements for weapons allows me to max out its protection and run the best combo of sidearm and primary. The number of times enemies have flanked my position and expected my LR / MD fit to be weak in direct combat only to find I have a beastly SMG for backup with 100 rounds in the mag Being able to flank a position and take down up to 7+ people with just a weapon swap and no reload is immense. The stamina recovery allows me to run up to a position, make a quick assessment and have the stamina to either push the advantage or fall back. This makes it far far more survivable than my logi, even with about 100-200 extra hp (don't ask me how, maybe they just pick on the yellow guys ) I do really miss the 4 shot mag flaylock though. Didn't help but it was cool to have. I still have one on my ACR fit, largely cus a SMG doesn't really add much to that primary (apart from ammo pool). Does surprise the occasional scout though, lol.

alias lycan Arrogance. 20	Posted - 2014.04.12 06:25:00 - [23] - Quote I've been in a minmatar assault since I started. I believe the suit is highly under rated and under appreciated by the community. Any player with skill can turn this "under powered" suit into a serious threat on the battle field.

With 1.8 Changes it didn't make sense to skill into it unless i had spare SP lying around... I miss it something fierce. The Suit still needs 20 more Base CPU and 5 more Base PG. for what i would want out of it. The suit never could fit what I wanted out of it.. and the 25% buff to weapon fitting still doesn't do it. Probably is the best Masshole suit in the game now though.

Luk Manag of Terror TRE GAFFEL 409	Posted - 2014.04.14 12:49:00 - [55] - Quote I picked up Minmatar Assault after the Million Clone Challenge. I decided it would be the best AV suit for my playstyle. Proto Swarms with Ishukone Assault Submachine Gun /with the 100 round clip. To deal with the short locking range, I use the Complex Kinetic Catalyzer and Enhanced Stamina Booster to chase vehicles all over the map (including dropships). I have a similar scout setup, because the cloaking allows for more direct pursuit. There will be bullets. ACR+SMG [CEO of Terror]

You can get 478 shield with 37 regen. You can also get 550 if you stack all extenders. This number is the highest shield you can get on a assault (tied with Caldari). Not sure if the cal logi can beat that now. My current set up something like this. 4 complex shield extenders 1 basic shield extender 1 plate (any kind) 1 armor rep I really like the reactive because it has a very low speed penalty and gives repairs. If you want to completely shield tank it you can go with... 5 complex extenders (or 4 with a shield recharger / enigizer) A regulator CPU upgrade. Really depends on your play style. Recently I just like to run away and wait a little longer for the shields to come back. It's pretty easy with the awesome stamina the suit has. SMG Specialist
Dunk Mujunk RestlessSpirits 766	Posted - 2014.04.14 15:17:00 - [59] - Quote I dislike shields myself, and though I haven't ran it for 1.8, here is my old Min Assault fit- 1 Proto Min Assault 1 GEK AR 1 Enhanced SMG 1 Basic Locus Grenade 1 Enhanced Needle 2 Proto Damage Mods 1 Enhanced Damage Mod 2 Enhanced Shield Extenders (I think, maybe 1 basic) 1 Complex Armor Plate 1 Enhances Armor Plate Obviously 3 Damage Mods wouldn't be as helpful now as they were then. You could go with just 1 enhanced damage mod and slap on 2 perscision (sp?) enhancers which can help a bit (I currently run 2 on my Amarr logi and meh. Not anything to write home about but they do help sometimes). I kept the 2 shield extenders on it because I was only running in the mid 400s armor wise. I see no point in running a Duvolle, the fitting just doesn't justify the small damage boost, at least not to me, though obviously the Fed Duvolle is a good choice. I know a lot of people just don't use them, but Locus grenades are great for the Min Assault since you can do damage without exposing yourself, letting you either start a gunfight with a leg up, finish a fight from saftey, or create a distraction to get away. The needle is good for keeping up and pushing with you. With the Mins low hp you obviously want as many people pushing with you as you can get. And, in my opinion, both lows have to be armor. I have armor, shields, armor plates, shield extenders to 5, as well as biotics and passive scans to 5. I'd say those are some of the more important upgrades to 5 for the min assault, biotics especially to retain the higher movement speeds when running armor. Switzerland is small and neutral. We're more like Germany. Ambitious and misunderstood. Futurama
CRNWLLC Screwy Rabbit ULC 188	Posted - 2014.04.14 15:44:00 - [60] - Quote I'm just getting into the assault role and am skilling both Cal and Min assault to level 3 (I'll use AUR to play around with proto suits on rare occasions). I chose to get the Cal assault to advanced first, simply because I find that at this point, with my current gun game, the extra EHP is more helpful than the ridiculous stamina/regen the Minnie suit has. However, reading this thread, it's obvious I'm doing it wrong. I'll get the Min suit to advanced stat (after I get complex shield extenders in a couple days) and will not be afraid to run away. (Dunno why this never occurred to me--again, I'm learning the assault role ATM, so this is sort of revelatory for me--I usually run scout, so GTFO is my motto. Good to know it applies to assaults as well! ) Seems like I'd do well to skill MDs and CRs to advanced, too, though for some reason I can't stop my love affair with the AR--maybe it's cuz she's so easy? . Anyway, I'm glad I'll have options, since I was mainly interested in a shield tanking assault. One way, I'll have a fair amount more EHP, the other I will be Usain Bolt. Let the good times roll! I would love to squad up with any folks on the Min assault channel--I definitely trust the rust, but not myself. Teach me to be a savage, tetanus-giving cheeetah! My other dropsuit is a Python.

Well if you are familiar with the scout, switching to min assault shouldn't be a big change. The play style is similar, kill a few and gtfo. The AR is still a pretty good choice but it struggles to finish enemies due to recent armor craze and it's lower damage to armor. Really the combat rifle is the best for the min assault, cheap to fit and you get the bonus to the clip. I will add you and show you the minmatar way SMG Specialist

TcuBe3 Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 401	Posted - 2014.04.15 03:36:00 - [65] - Quote I actually use the weapon of my enemy with the min assault... The Rail Rifle. Here's why... The rail was designed to be used at long range and as we all know our minmitar assault suit boasts a very small EHP total but a significant shield regen ability and strafe speed. The rail rifle gives me the ability to hit my targets at significant range, then move behind cover for shield regen. I use the Speed of the suit to close the distance with my target then, transition to my SMG to finish the job. I run Advanced Assault MK.1 Proto Rail Rifle M251a SMG Basic Locus Compact Hive 3 x complex shields 2 x enhanced armor I also run the proto combat rifle but only in situations that yield me to stay close to the enemy. I have pretty much given up on damage mods as they are a poor use of my CPU and PG. can we get a respec on that CCP? CCP Fanboys remind me of the Heaven's Gate cult.
