KAGEHOSHI Horned Wolf Dominion of the Supreme Emperor God-King KAGEHOSHI 11377	Posted - 2014.07.12 20:06:00 - [1] - Quote The Caldari assault reload bonus is pretty crappy considering the Caldari commando gets the same reload bonus in addition to a damage bonus. I have a Gallente assault level 5 alt account, and I find the Gallente assault bonus almost unnoticeable on my AR. Both the Amarr and Minmatar assaults have good bonuses; allows them to keep shooting longer before stopping from overheat/magazine-depletion. I would suggest giving the Gallente and Caldari assault magazine size bonuses to their racial weapons. 1) Any plans to change the Gallente and Caldari assault bonuses? I noticed you mentioned in the Charlie thread that you won't be giving assaults more slots. 2) Can you give us an approximate number of how much HP you would give assaults? 3 A) Would it be possible to make some bonuses not tied to skills? example, all assaults having a built-in 15% efficacy modifier to damage mods? I would love these sorts of built-in bonuses. 3 B) Any plans to do so if possible? Gû¦Supreme emperor god-kingpÇÉKAGEH¦PSHIpÇæ// Lord of threads // Forum altGû+

We will be sharing a spreadsheet with calculations, a new layout and tentative PG/CPU for players to play around with protofits and let us know if those changes will be enough to bring out the Assault. Efficacy is still something we want to explore more so maybe more likely in Delta. Maybe we can in the meantime increase some of the role bonuses instead of adding new ones. We want to place the Assault squarely between Commandos and Logis in eHP. "As well as stupid, Rattati is incredibly slow and accident-prone, and cannot even swim"

You were right in the first place and that is a " assault " bonus because it helps survivability to assault , hence making it an " assault " bonus . Assaulting shouldn't be just about damage , that's the commando's role ... it should be about , top rate efficiency and being equipped to handle one on one and two conflicts , with that ability to survive and maintain the front presence . They shouldn't be " glass cannons " , they should have a better tac net somewhat like scouts , deal a nice amount of damage ... threw the light arms and side arms reduction , be somewhat mobile and have some sort of tank to sustain a fight and be a presence on the front line ... " i.e." crack assault troops or the best of the best , specialist in assault warfare . So your right in your thinking from my point of view . You would think that CCP would have given the infantry refund that should have been in 1.8.

We want to place the Assault squarely between Commandos and Logis in eHP. Please , then don't do what you did to the Caldari heavy and give the assaults two low slots at advanced and the same like scouts at prototype . The assaults need the third low slot at prototype , hell they need it at advanced . Hell I would take a 3 / 3 set up and loose my equipment slot at advanced any day . And please don't do an exclusive RR bonus either , everyone that uses Caldari do not use RR's . That's commando any way and I can re-load faster threw my weapons skill tree anyway . Edit : Your picking two boring roles to want to place assaults in-between and I play both , assaults should be between scouts and Heavies ... if you want to place Commando in that heavy category then go ahead . That is where assaults should truly be . But I understand the HP's . A logi's tank really means not much . Seriously , in battlefield terms there is nothing in between scouts and heavies . You would think that CCP would have given the infantry refund that should have been in 1.8.

I think it would make both weapons OP. The BAR/BurstAR would be amazing and the AR/TAR would be become goshlike. The RR would become better(duh) and just even more annoying. It would probably have to get a dmg nerf to even keep this type of buff. The RR could be balanced around a buff like that, but the Plasma Rifle would be unbalance-able(IMO) and this is coming for a pure Gallente who uses only blaster tech!(I gotta be fair and keep the balance, ya know?)

Just to run shields and high CPU requirements like range or precision. Trust me cal scout is 3 x as good no doubt in that department. For assaults I would suggest having a side arm bonus to damage. Maybe 2% per level for pistols, maybe including racial smgs, sorry Gallentes. More of a gunslinger attitude for qcb. Couple that with the current ninny bonuses for Cal and Gal. I like the reload on Cals for my dragonfly ass. But qcb suffers when dealing with heavies, and especially the cloaky shotty scrubs(I hate you all btw) .This in effect could help with long and short range engagements. Balance for assaults? Make them viable with more Hp regen and really make side arms even more worth looking at.

More range is the last thing Rail weapons need. The RR would be right back in LR territory and while it might help snipers (hide further back in the redline) in theory, rendering is too lousy for it to actually be useful. Better zoom. more stability, lower charge are some things I'd be thinking about. All the Assaults need a racial tank and/or regen bonus to accompany the weapon bonuses, too. Reality is the original Rorschach. Verily! So much for all that.
ZDub 303 Escrow Removal and Acquisition Dark Taboo 3117	Posted - 2014.07.13 03:10:00 - [20] - Quote Reduction in Rail Weaponry Kick for Caldari Assault would be just right imo. Especially considering the ARR and the MSMG have some significant kick. RoF would be really nice for Gallente, considering RoF is king of CQC... but it results in a straight damage increase... Maybe at 2-3% per level it wouldn't be overpowered?

Efficacy is still something we want to explore more so maybe more likely in Delta. Maybe we can in the meantime increase some of the role bonuses instead of adding new ones. We want to place the Assault squarely between Commandos and Logis in eHP. Just a hypothetical concept but what about splitting the Assaults into two different categories - two being more defensible, focusing on regen and less down-time between fights and two being more combative/suppressive. Amarr/Minmatar already have some good offensive bonuses without bleeding over into the Commando's higher damage output. EDIT: Their bonuses, one mitigating heat from laser weapons and the other increasing magazine capacity, makes them great for suppressive fire. Whereas we could potentially change the Gallente/Caldari to be more defensible without bleeding off into sentinel turf. My suggestion would be to give the Gallente a Reactive Plate repair and Armor Repairer bonus, to recover a bit faster between fights. Caldari could have a Recharger and Energizer bonus to suit this specialization as well. This gives dynamically different playstyle performance according to their preferred combat styles without encouraging brick buffer tanking. Thoughts? EDIT: I'm being vague and not proposing numbers because I'd like to discuss the overall concept first. Useful Links Aeon Amadi for CPM1

I think CCP need to take note of the Amarr Assault - that does its job properly and in my opinion is a GREAT assault suit with proper bonuses that CCP should take note from. That being said, a small RoF bonus would be nice - however dont make it too powerful otherwise it will be only Assault suits everywhere.

N. 25% RoF is too strong. A RoF bonus would be good, although I dislike cutting the clip duration even further. Rate of fire is what EVERYONE wanted when we where originally doing suits. EVERYONE was TRYING to get away from the assault suit being this brick tanked killing machine. As it has been through the entire history oof this game. Assault suits had tank bonuses, Logi suits had tank bonuses... Heavy suits had fitting and dmg bonuses to a gun that wasn't even in the game. Scouts bonuses... are still terrible. We keep trying to give Assaults the ability to brick tank or have a "Tanky" setup and it will create a balance issue like it always has. Just history shows us this. Assaults role should be the Fast Light Assault trooper... Where the commando is the Slower Heavy tanky assault trooper... We can discuss a number here and a number there... But more then anything As a community we need to discuss: What is the ROLE of an Assault suit in DUST 514? What do we as a general community WANT from it for squad and team composition that adds to the game not copy's or does the same.. We need it to be a positive addition to the overall experience of DUST. So what ROLE do you think an Assault Suit should fill on the battlefield? because right now every class has a clear distinction in their function except Assaults. I Believe Assaults should be the "Light Assaults" of DUST. Fast moving, High Damage, smaller tank but slightly above a scout. With a proper indirect damage bonus like RoF or more something Racial specific. it puts them on equal footing. While the lack of being able to brick tank a 1000HP suit allows their damage potential vs survivability in a Toe to Toe confrontation to be balanced. The Commando can be the Brick tanked "Heavy Assault" with a damage bonus.. But looses it's mobility as it's sacrifice.

Everyone want the assault shine more but not insta kill anyone In Dust, it becomes FOTM when it becomes useful. PG/CPU bonus is a stupid bonus to give assaults. The issue is to give assaults a bonus so that true assault players will go back to using assault suits. Right now, there is no incentive to go back to your assault suit if you have a scout suit. So, there must be a bonus that makes sense towards the class and will allow true assault players to go back to their class. PG/CPU bonus is more worthless than a reload bonus. "Slight" buff to health isn't going to do **** especially when people choose scout suits over assault suits now with less tank. So, what are you saying or suggesting? ROF bonus to all Amarr - bonus to laser buildup (as it is) Caldari - bonus to shield regen or recharge delay per level Gallente - bonus to armor rep per level Min - as it is > Check RND out here

They truly need weapon support bonuses before they become a compelling option. If anything the regeneration bonus can be the assault efficacy bonus to both Armor Reps and Rechargers if that is necessary. A reduction to rail kick and rof bonus for Gallente make more sense as weapon support bonuses. Balancing RoF bonus to 2% to make it balanced with Commandos and having 5% for the other racial bonuses to make them compelling.

There is a Light Assault hole in the Suit choice in DUST. And people have migrated to Scouts, Commandos and Heavies that prefer that type of gameplay in their Shooter, These are the people that run a Gal and Cal scout as a Chromosome Assault. Or run a Heavy with full time kincats and out strafe scouts. etc.. We need to provide and have a means for that hole in DUST 514's gameplay and choices. As it is right now these classes are half filling the role. and the Assault suits are generally purposeless.
Oskar GALLAKT Prima Gallicus 0	Posted - 2014.07.14 00:03:00 - [42] - Quote what about a tandem bonus ? what di i mean ? - If you are near an assault gallente your armor's repair increase by 3 % by level - if you're near an assault Caldari your shield increase by 3% by level - if you're near an assault minmatar your speed increase by 3 % by level - if you're near an assault amaar your armor increase by 3 % by level of course the bonus can be around 10 m what about that ? like we could imagine seeing on field a minmatar and a gallente rushing faster and stronger on a point . that can be awesone ! it could make strong teamplay in the game, in different way like a nice tandem logisitc and assault. it could really boost the game in the right way ! sure it's not easy to apply and maybe too complicate ... what do you think ?
