if killing itself is a role then that means every other class has 2 roles while the assault only has one. after all this game is a combat game and killing is the point. so still my point is that the assault has less of a role than anyone else

Make a list of all the roles in the game. Figure out ways that make sense to build a hybrid assault class with each of those roles.

For instance, you could make an assault hacker by adding a complex code breaker. Is it really that difficult?

your missing the point. every class comes as combat with a role. assault comes as combat only and is required to gimp its killing role to become anything else. every other class comes with a role so is not required to gimp its killing role in order to fill its other role.

so for an assault to become anything more than a killer it has to become a lot less of a killer. but this is not the case with other suits with a specific role. this is why every other class can easily become an assault beating fit and still fill their main role while the assault can't become much more than an assault

The only variable piece that adds "killer" potential is the inclusion of damage mods. Nothing more. Add to the fact that they are a high slot and eliminating them and replacing them with, say, a shield extender only adds more eHP. Even that still keeps it in this "killer" role, as you lovingly refer to it as. Furthermore, the suit and how you fit it do NOT make you an instant slayer. They only lend to added diversity/survivability. A player's individual skill makes him a "killer", not his proto suit with mods. I guarantee you that a militia-only geared Sgt Kirk would utterly DESTROY a fully proto'd out FWA rookie, both 1v1 and on the leaderboards. The saying " the man makes the suit; the suit does not make the man" applies here. Assaults have a primary role and it is to...get ready for it....ASSAULT. As mentioned above, you can make it what you want to. You just have to be creative. We only need one role and that is to kill sh!t. Simple as that. PurificationGäó It's what I do. Amarr Victor
