I agree with the proposed logi changes, although I don't play with an Amarr logi and many of them seem to want to keep the suit how it is, which I don't see as a problem.
I do not really have an opinion about the other changes. I don't think they will cause problems except maybe for advanced Caldari scouts, one low slot would encourage too much tanking over EWAR or biotic fitting.
I agree that dual tanking is bad as it reduces fitting variety. There is a problem with a lack of useful high slots but I'm not sure proto Gallente assaults having to fit a shield extender is really too much of a problem. I also think damage mods should be buffed to 3/4/6 or 3/5/7, or their fitting costs reduced. |

Except everybody is forgetting that CCP is significantly buffing assault suit base hp.
The speed difference between assaults and logis isn't insignificant.
I'm not saying I am in favor of sidearm logis. Just that I don't think they would be better slayers than assaults. Not when assaults will have better speed, weapon bonuses, shield regen and a base hp advantage strong enough to exceed logi's slot advantage. This combined with the proposed CPU/PG bonuses.
I'm my opinion Rattati could have gone about the Charlie assault suit change feedback discussion better. He should have put all the suggested assault suit changes together in one thread with suggested numbers instead of splitting it all up. It has just caused confusion as people complain about slots in the fitting thread, people complain about fitting in the slot thread, and everyone forgets about the hp buff. |

I mean if assaults are getting 8 slots including a sidearm,i would like to be able to run away from that.
This is following scout logic of less armor = more speed and regen.
Ya know since logistics has about 30 more eHP than their racial scout,yet are slow speed and regen wise. The second logis get buffed we will be simply perpetuating power creep with an ongoing cycle of buffing.
Since uprising began logis have been the most powerful suits. Yes they have been slightly nerfed but not much.
Scouts and heavies have been buffed to be on par with logis. Ok, maybe CCP went a bit far but the alpha hotfix has brought scouts in line, Charlie scout changes should also help. The increased hmg heat buildup should help balance heavies in Charlie.
Assaults need a buff. They have been under performing all through uprising. Balancing scouts and heavies has highlighted this further.
Logis are the power benchmark. If assault buffs necessitate logi buffs they have gone too far.
For constructive feedback I will need to look at theoretical fits. |

I got the impression Ratatti was referring to plates, not reactive or ferroscale, for a pg increase. |
