Logis still have an advantage due to fitting bonus and cloaky scouts need one for the cloak. Absolutly not. I dislike the Scouts having 2 equipment already as I feel it devalues the Logistics quite a lot, as we often see Scouts running around being better Logis than the Logis because of all the advantages being a scout brings, as well as two equipment. Pokey, Scouts generally do more than run around cloaked. We place uplinks, scan enemy positions, serve AV functions, etc. Back when we were broken, cloak was supposed to "fix" us ... not standardize us. I have a proto scout, and I don't think I've ever fit a cloak. My favourite loadouts has to be Allotek Nanohives and Gauged Uplinks. Gimps the rest of the fitting, or it would if EWAR mods weren't so light on fitting. I know a guy who runs a Nanite injector and a Repair Tool. I think Pokey has a point. Lots of people have Scouts now. This wasn't always the case. We explained to Remnant through IWS that Scouts serve particular battlefield roles. We place uplinks, scan enemy positions, booby trap sh!t, perform AV functions, etc. Cloak was supposed to be help Scouts perform these roles better, not prevent Scouts from performing any role at all.
Should built the cloaks into the suits and left them with only one slot. |

I'm a shield tanker. And while extra ammo is nice, having my equipment destroyed is the reason I don't use deployable equipment. So I carry a needle and rep tool? There goes the logi population
Armor tankers get needles, rep tools, and armor hives. What do shield tankers get? That's why I don't use equipment now. |

Logis still have an advantage due to fitting bonus and cloaky scouts need one for the cloak. Just make the logi and assault the same suit already, let people decide by slot modules/equipment what they want to do (logi or Slayer) and get rid of those stupid logi-bonuses. haha are you kidding? Atleast you make a distinction between logi/Slayer, Like in fitting equipment will use necessary CPU/PG to make a slayer fit. People are still going to use scouts for assaults anyway.
Of course. The scout assaults already said that if passive perma scans are still on scouts, they don't have a reason to use assaults.
How do you kill something that knows where you are, what direction you're facing, can cloak, has the same dps as you, moves faster, jumps higher, has an extra equipment slot, and doesn't need to fit stealth mods to retain it's ewar advantage?

Charlie YES - More PG/CPU, playing around with numbers, maybe 10% across the board YES - More EHP, 100 to 150 ehp, racially consistent to shields/armor YES/NO - Another equipment slot, maybe only ADV and PRO, including the necessary PG/CPU
Delta Another Role bonus, ROF, damage, TBD, ammo capacity bonus, Racial efficacy bonuses, f.ex. GA to dmg mods and/or reps, etc. Caldari reduction to Rail Rifle kick, spool up time Gallente, ROF(unless role bonus) Fitting/capacity bonus to Grenades
is the pg/cpu for the 2nd equipment slot in addition to the 10% buff across the board?
the 10% looks good but comes short of being enough for a 2nd piece of equipment.

when CCP rebalanced assault ships and heavy assault ships, they gave them three things to help separate them as a role from other ships.
more dps
more eHP
more speed
more capacitor
3 of those things would help assault suits right now. we know were getting more eHP. we should also get more dps.
capacitor doesnt exist for us, but it can be translated into stamina. better stamina regen would let us do the things we need to, WHEN we need to. sprinting, jumping, meleeing noobs all require stamina. a buff in stamina and regen adds to the quality of life for assaults.
more speed would be good as well. |
