Agree. People must not forget the basic assault, but this one will not receive an extra slot, so those basic assaults would not receive a buff without the eHP buff ... For me, when Rattati says "assault buff" I understand - Basic assault buff - Advanced assault buff - Proto assault buff
Not only the ADV and the Pro one
Ho yeah Love you Rattati!

Firstly, that word "concession", I do not think it means what you think it means.
Secondly, your first point, however accurate, doesn't change the fact that the logi & scout suit users are both able to fit whatever they want without the need to sacrifice anything essential, whilst the assault suit users aren't. You're essentially saying: Look at these 2 suits, everyone that uses them can choose to fit everything they want on it & we don't want that, it's not balanced. Therefore the users of this other suit should be unable to fit everything they want on it b/c then we'd have 3 suits that aren't balanced.
As the users of logi / scout / heavy suits don't "have to think about how they want to build their loadouts." resulting in them just shield / armour tanking w/ damage mods / regen mods. I don't see why assault suit users aren't entitled to do the same. If anyone should be able to tank HP + regen efficiently it should be the heavies & assaults, not the logis & scouts.
Thirdly, your second point is also flawed. The Cal & Min layouts differ whilst the Gal & Amarr layouts are the same. This will still be the case w/ hotfix Charlie only the MinAssault layout will be the same as the Minlogi & the MinScout (In principle) as opposed to the 5-2 layout it has now (Which no one wanted). So a slot increase would actually do the complete opposite of what you said; lol @ how having an even no. of slots would "serve to blur the very racial identities the proposed 7 slot layouts were designed to showcase, as well as disrupting their symmetry." 8 slots is without a doubt better for that purpose.
A minor buff won't cut it, if the assaults aren't given a buff in multiple areas (mainly ones that result in increased survivability) scouts will continue to dominate the assaults in combat, like the logis did for a year.
Agree. So much people speak about "differences between commando and assault" but not enought about "assault, logi and scouts" That's cool to see a Caldari assault, I thought I was the only one The eHP buff and the exra slot are good things to improve assault situation and "stop" logi slayers and scout-tank
Ho yeah Love you Rattati!
