you also gimp true logis with this.... since ttk is so short and we are #1 target with a repper in our hands...

theres a reason why logi kdr is so low.... this would make it even lower....

simply giving the assault bonuses to being more efficient slayers would be enough to define it from logi slayers, who would not have those bonuses.

I don't understand the confusion, I originally said I don't like the complete irregularity that the Amarr logi sidearm is, because it obfuscates all true comparisons between the logis.

Now, if Caldari logis have a sidearm, and the same number of slots as the Amarr, then there is no singular discrepancy, then there is a reason and we can balance the two combat logis against each other.

Just as if we would remove the Amarr sidearm and the CA low, and equalize all the logis at all tiers.

I maintain that the dropsuit is such a fundamental item in the dust balance, that slot layouts should be very consistent, logical and not have inherent discrepancies, because those layouts translate into PG/CPU. That's why we are proposing a single matrix of universal dropsuit layouts. And that is also, why the CA ADV scout has 4-1, changing that single one to 3-2 would "break" the whole universal proposal.

The differences should be at the role/racial and module/weapon level and that's where our choices become truly meaningful.

In the end, none of these changes are necessary, they have been this way for a long time and maybe they shouldn't be touched. I am sure we can find other things to balance.

You know why armor tankers put on extenders?
Because there's nothing else to put there to benefit an assault suit.
It used to be damage mods, but those were nerfed hard.

Any attempt to move a module to high slots was met with a giant "Boo!" or "No!" followed by the reasoning "armor op".


So you have any problems with me putting on extenders? You can cram it.
Give me useful utility modules and I will gladly stop using extenders.
