What we can clearly sse is a noticeable dominance in caldari suits. In nearly all areas they the most sold and I guess there fore the most used suits...this coming close to what I experience on the battlefied.
The only part that really surprises me is the caldari heavy beeing dominant as well this is where my battle experience differ as I always got the feeling to encounter more gal sents...
This also shows that RR and CR are still vastly dominating the field whereas the SG is by far less dominant as some forum post and threads seem to suggest. This is quite interesting stuff. I wish I could give you more than on +1
Oh wait I can :) |

It depresses me greatly that I am personally responsible for a significant percentage of all ion pistol purchases in the last 10 days.
I have bought some creodens as well It seems the only viable option among them (but is still somewhat terrible but I simply love the design) |

First of all, it only shows that CR and RR are common, not dominant. And second, SG has around half as many purchases as each of CR and RR. Given that SGs are rare on anything other than scouts, and scouts are only 37% of total suit purchases, SG may be the most common weapon on the class that actually uses it (scout).
Well I would call roughly 47% of ALL weapon purchases dominant...and SG are less dominant than the AR and only by a relatively small margin more bought than Scramblers...
But in one point you are right RR and CR are not as dominant for light weapons as the SG is for sidearms...
SG may be dominant on scouts but they are rather common among heavies and assaults as well. Just like the CR/ACR is quite common among scouts... |

SG may be dominant on scouts but they are rather common among heavies and assaults as well. Just like the CR/ACR is quite common among scouts... I meant 'not dominant' in the sense of not dominant in effectiveness, which as Rattatti pointed out, these stats don't tell us anything about. In most cases I find a RR user quite an easy kill, for instance. Lots of them just means lots of easy kills. I have seen the odd SG on heavies and assaults but I really wouldn't say it's common. It's the kind of thing you'd laugh at on coms, which would get old if they were in every game like SG scouts or HMG heavies are.
Effectiveness is hard to judge on game experience as it depends on the player you up against. So I have killed quite some RR users with ease while at the same time getting lots of kills with it. In some situation even more than with the CR.
There are some factors you can express or put in numbers. So I work with what I get and the more statistics CCP or some else will release the clearer the picture will be for all of us.
So but based on the numbers both weapons are quite powerful (if not the most powerful rifles out now) and by the numbers provided here this is also reflected... |

One could say its the worse to use because its needing to be purchased more frequently aka the person using it dies and needs to restock. Example, Amarr logi as used almost solely for spawn suits and spamming uplinks, then switching to a different suit to provide a role. Therefore they almost never die in combat and never get restocked.
In theory you are right this could have an effect but in general people will use what they are comfortable with and they WILL die in these suits so they need to restock them...not everyone can go 26-0 every game  |
