I Commando the **** up and destroy my enemy with Laser Weapons.
Remember if you are attracting massive amounts of bullets and losing HP too quickly then you are not in the position you should be. Take a step back and let your superior shields and armour absorb the damage as you rip into your enemy from your optimal range.

LOL Then retreat to cover until they are forced within your range, then get them that way. Alternatively, you can flank them from the side or back if there is terrain to block your LOS.
Although if you are playing in an open map,a Normal and Assault Combat Rifle paired together would be much more efficient. Unless of course, the other team is spamming Scouts.

Atiim is right, you have one of the shortest Optimal Ranges in the game, and have to live with that, making engagement when and where you can to your favour and retreating as required to lure enemies into range.
As for you assertions about the Amarr..... speak all you want. No upstart slave's combat doctrine can beat the one Templar Yassavi developed.
You'll burn in the open before the Wrath of God, you will burn as you cower in fear, and you will burn for the sins as an apostate.

This is flawed in the sense that while no-body can completely beat the Templar Doctrine, the Templar Doctrine can't completely beat the others either; as they all have drawbacks preventing them from doing so.
For example, what exactly will your Laser and Scrambler Rifles do when someone decides to bring a vehicle?

Well I'll live forever so there shall be no burning of me, assuming that your God is real. Which is about as likely as Kirk deciding to assist the State.

They do have a large hit box, but treat it like a scout. Soon as your shields are near depleted find cover. Also be creative you have two light slots so think of it as a two hit punch.

Really? I just run mine like an Assault.
Minmatar Commando Mk.0 with a Boundless CR, Wyrrkomi Swarm, Enhanced Shield Recharger and Complex Light Damage Mod, with a Enhanced Armor Repair and a Complex Kinetic Catalyzer
Pretty much focus on outDPSing any non-Hmg wielder who comes up, play peekaboo against Rail Rifles, and focus on being as accurate as possible in CQC.
Now as for Caldari scouts... You'll never win using Minmatar Gear, seeing as they (oddly) have Innate Resists(tested, sadly it's more or less inconsistent) make an alternate fit with a Assault Scrambler or Assault Rifle, shotguns work as well.

I have better luck killing CalScouts with my CR than my RR. AR is better, and ScR is best.
Can't think why.

As things are now, use any non-scout suit when defending a point with a squad. For any walk and run from point to point, run scout or drive a vehicle. |

To clarify when I said it was a bullet magnet I meant that when in a fire fight with others, such as the map with A on the bridge, my commando is always taking shots where as my min scout with only 300 hp can stand around and not take much damage. In my opinion it's because people see a heavy frame and shoot it first while they ignore my scout.
I take an overwhelming amount of shots with the heavy frame, more then a can reasonably attribute to hit box alone. That's why I called it a bullet magnet, please note the sarcasm.

Keep your distance. Commando isn't a front line slayer. It supports front line slayers.
