Yes, breach AR is the best AR for a commando.
- High damage/shot. - High accuracy (you're not a gallente assault).
Its too bad the shotty is not working well at times, perhaps it is the bonus bug not applying spread reduction? I dunno. Its supposed to be a present for scouts. |

But the Gallente Commando...Gallente are supposed to be CQC fighters but you're slow. How are you supposed to get within range of the enemy if you can't catch up with a medium frame?
I'd say the only real benefit of the gallente commando would be to defend an objective and let the enemy come to you. PLC with a fast reload would work. Dual plasma cannons doesn't work unless you go proto however...
Dual ARs might be another option, but only if you are already skilled into them far enough.
You are right Shayz, it is NOT a run and gun suit.
Brick tanked AR + shotty, point defence: Shotgun for scouts and mercs that get too close, AR for others.
This setup is also great for breaching into areas with your squad.
Breach shotty also get a reload speed faster than the RoF on the commando, so you can constantly fire if you get in the rhythm.
Galmando is a bait brawler suit, you need to let the enemies come to you. |

Enough hp to cover to cover to get close, a rep hive and complex reps to compensate, using my ar just fine against most other rifles. Knowing who,how and when to engage enemies is paramount. It's definitely a winner.
GCOM, I like the sound of that! |

If not considering damage profile: A proto ACR only has ~2 more DPS than the damage modded Duvolle AR on a commando. This is a interesting fact.
Good ADV fitting for you guys: http://www.protofits.com/fittings/view/767/3386 |
