Yes it does,logistics gets a fitting reduction to all equipment,even cloaks.

And REs fall under equipment.

And tbh scouts shouldn't have the ability to equip REs,yet they do.

"Use better" is a stupid comparison,lets look at which one specialises in equipment:
-Logistics
Can carry more:
-Logistics
Gets a fitting reduction:
-Logistics

What do scouts get?
-Intel bonuses
-Cloak fitting reduction

Which one is actually "better" with REs?

Lol such a pitiful argument. "I get EQ bonus so I use RE's better"
Scouts use RE's ten times better than Logis because we can run faster thus throw them farther and we have the best passive scanning thus we can use them from behind walls (look ma no eyes!) and the best you can come up with is a finger pointed at CPU/PG reduction.

Meanwhile if a Logistic had no suit bonus whatsoever they wouldn't be able to use any EQ better than anything. Meanwhile a scout can use remote explosives better than any suit regardless of skill bonuses.

And tbh scouts shouldn't have the ability to equip REs,yet they do.Hahahahahaha you're ideas never cease to amuse me.

What if assaults and Lolmandos were the kings of small arms? My idea? -Reduce DPS from all light weapons and sidearms (except KN) by 50% (amount can change) -Give assaults and commandos a 10% damage increase bonus per level to their racial weapons(total 50%,and an additional 10% for commandos aka their current bonus) So a Lv5 Gal assault would do current damage with an AR,but anyone else would do 50% damage. (except commandos who would get an additional 10%) But if a Gal assault equipped a RR he could only do 50%, even if he has Cal assault Lv5. Thoughts?

Lolno more like defined roles. (See logistics bonuses) Scouts and logistics should never be the favored go-to suit for getting kills,assaults/commandos should.

I'm trying to give them an advantageous edge,not the whole sword. Also,screw scouts and slayer logis.

I think you mean Assaults have been ignored. As in, in the past. Currently they are getting a lot of attention and there will be Assault buffs in both Charlie and Delta. Edit: Also, your idea is bad. I don't think your realize how big 50% is. Hand/Eye coordination cannot be taught. For everything else there is the Learning Coalition.

That's....excessive. Or we can just buff them by 2% a level, give them weapon support skills, and decent HP regen bonuses and call it a day? Like my ideas? Pokey Dravon for CPM1

I'm up far more regeneration as long as logistics gets more armor. Fair is fair.

My point being you don't need to nerf the offensive abilities of every other light weapon class just to make Assaults more relevant. On that note there are a number of active discussions floating around both in this forum and GD, I suggest you check them out as there are some pretty well developed ideas out there that you can help expand on.

Basically you're saying **** scouts and logis you guys shouldn't kill anything at all even though you are forced to use a weapon. If this is so I'd say nerf RE count by 2, nerf damage by 75% but give scouts a +15% to damage per level and +1 carried/active per level. Fair is fair Smell the burning flesh.

Fair is fair REs are equipment,logistics is the equipment master. Scouts specialise in cloaks (hence the fitting reduction). So LOLNO on scouts being better at using equipment than the master support class (logistics).

Hence why I have a ScP with my HMG. HMGs would be untouched. ScP does insane damage anyway. But i would consider at least lowering light weapon damage. I'm getting tired of Cal scouts with basic RRs killing me in 4 shots from 100~m. And Gal scouts with ScR. And having my Mk.0 logistics suit killed in a single shot by an invisible enemy using a MLT shotgun 12m away. (often 600+ damage)

The HMG remaining untouched is a buff. TTK doesn't need to be lower, it can already take above a whole clip to whittle down a Proto Sentinel, it's fine.

CCP wants assaults used more and this would do it,while lolassault scouts and slayer logis would become extinct.

(possibly efficiency on damage mods?)

Though for the commandos it would end up having to be all equipment (I use scanners and reptools mostly on my commandos )
