I have a similar fit, but I've speced into lvl 2 proficiency on the SL, but only one comp dmg mod and run with the Wyrkomi on my Adv suit. To be honest, i've mostly gone against tanks with that fit. LAVs haven't bothered me enough to pull me away from my Min Commando MD/LR fit (and I've only played for 4 days after 1.8 was released). Good to know that a Wyrkomi with adequate dmg specing should be able to take done a militia LAV in a single shot if all 6 missiles hit.
Yeah after this triple SP week coming up I will probably same as much as I can to get my proto suit...and then I'm saving strictly for my proto SL =D
The extra missile is a much bigger jump than most weapons adv->proto. The wirkomi is also only 27k isk which is super cheap for a proto weapon. My adv fit runs about 57k isk which is not bad for an adv fit with a proto light weapon. I doubt I will run a proto min commando suit. The extra low slot doesn't seem worth the cost. i am not interested in running two proto weapons. My gun game is not good enough to justify a 200k suit. Then again, I rarely ran proto on my min logi suit and that had a very serious jump: 1 extra high, low, and equipment slot. I'm just too cheap, but I have over 200 mill isk to show for it. :)
Well the suit is only 57k iirc. The real reason I want to max out my Minmando is because I want the full 10% damage bonus and 25% reload bonus. The only weapons I use on my commando on a regular basis are CR/MD/SL...all of which benefit heavily from those bonuses. the 750k event SP in addition to the potential 5XXk SP next week (I think I've decided not to run a booster) will put me a good bit closer to the 1.9M SP needed to get there. SP that I will really, really struggle to save up otherwise.
I might make a proto Minmando fit just for kicks, but I can fit everything I need on my ADV suit right now. Once I get all my proto modules unlocked (damage mods, reppers, and equipment...eventually kincats) then I'll probably start needing to use a proto suit. My ADV suit has room for ADV weapons, equipment, damage mods and a PRO armor repper...which will suit me just fine for quite a while.
EDIT: I'm rather cheap too...when I feel like making ISK I run my Gallente Medic starter fit (stack 3x MLT plates rather than the two reppers that come on it) with a STD RR and R-9 Uplinks...with shield and armor passives both at 5 I have about 150 shields and ~533 armor iirc.
Total cost: 7.8k ISK. Consistently top 4 in WP. RR are still OP.
EDIT 2: If I run the MLT needle that comes on it my total cost is 2.2k ISK
