Also, if you would like to make some changes, please take light weapons off of Sentinel suits. If you want to use a rail rifle, use a commando. It's already hard enough breaking through the armor of a Sentinel and it's impossible to get anywhere when you're getting shot in the face with a light weapon.

As a Cal logi I am extremely happy about the increased equipment slot. I do have some concerns regarding the CPU/PG on ADV and Proto being able to fit another peace of equipment. STD has PG and CPU to spare -_-

I don't like the idea of slowing us down even more with Assaults potentially getting more speed and EHP (ether through base HP or increase to CPU/PG allowing them to fit higher tear modules.) Trying to ketch one of them for reps or amo is going to be a pain if this happens.

The A-logi losing it's sidearm.... You're going to have a lot of mad A-logi's as it tends to bridge the gap between Assaults and Logi's but not surprising if your giving them an extra low and another equipment.

Well going by your logic of freedom of customization I want my assault suit to use the hmg then.

Well said, well said. My concern with this is: Why does the slot say "H" for HEAVY, yet a light weapon can be put on it?

Name calling just proves you have no counter to an argument so I'll just take my leave and say that you're idea is wrong and you should feel bad.

I'm not being a smart but about it. Your idea is just plain wrong. The hmg doesn't take up very much cpu or power grid to use at all for an assault suit (after cpu/power grid mods if your not maxed out in the skills) I'm countering your logic about 'everything should be customizable' which thid stament is a false perception.

What is happening here is that you want the heavy suit to fill out both the slayer role and the tanker 'I kick your ass with a hmg' role.

Lets think logically then. A heavy suit was designed to carry weapons that no normal suit can via an exoskeleton hence why they have such a tremendous amount of health points but the down side is that the suits design means that it shouldn't be able to carry light weapons (or side arms) due to the large scale the hands/arms/whatever need to be to hold said heavy guns.

In the beginning there was only a few roles in dust which is the scout class, assault class, logi class and heavy class. Then came the commando a little later on down the track.

Now back then the heavy class was only meant to use the light weapons for range combat as a place holder until longer ranged heavy weapons came in - but didn't due to stuff.

With CCP Rattati making roles more defined it only makes sense logically that the commando suit fills the role of the 'heavy with the light weapon' and not the Sentinel.

Tl;dr your wrong because you love your Sentinel and light weapon combo and should feel bad.

Also I'm no alt nor is the guy/girl I just defend people when I feel like it.

I hope that too many words in one post doesn't hurt your head as you seem to fail at understanding what the 'H' stands for in the Sentinel suit fitting section.

What's your point here? Those early days of 1.0 were fraking miserable for everybody but Cal logis, and you know it. No one wants to see that crap return.

The Cal logi suit was ridiculous in the amount of CPU/PG it had -- which is why I suggested that heavy be looked at, cause I suspect it might be the same problem. I've got core to 5, and cpu and engineering to 2, and I can fit just about anything I want on an Amarr heavy suit.

Alright, fair enough, I probably came on a little strong there.

But the problem with this is game balance -- you shouldn't be able to perform those roles equally, not by way of suit stats, at any rate. Being powerful in one area should result in being deficient in another. You shouldn't be able to rez, rep, and resupply, and also murder everything that moves, and be able to tank your suit, otherwise there's no point in playing other roles, or even having them. By that same token, we may as well just remove all the medium suits except one, and let people fit it any way they want.

And if you like logis who are not afraid of the front lines, and know how to both rep and pop a cap in someone's ass, hit me up sometime, I'll roll with you :)
