I wrote a thing.

The Minmatar assault has a 5% per level.
If a clip size increase was to be a thing, it shouldn't be 1 or 2 bullets per level, it should be equal strength.
I have a perhaps irrational dislike of replicating that bonus though. It'd be nice if each assault had something a little more unique.
EDIT: I don't really think the bonus 'making the ion pistol slightly less hilariously bad, but still hilariously bad' is grounds to keep a bonus that is otherwise at best 'meh' worthy.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.

We already have 85 round ACR clips parading around with the Minassault bonus and nobody is calling that a problem. If it's 1 or 2 bullets in a clip per level it's arbitrarily worse than the Minassault bonus and how would it affect the shotgun and ion pistol?
1 or 2 bullets a clip is a pretty laughable increase. A 1 round per level bonus would be completely stupid. A 5 round increase at level 5? Yeah, no thanks. I'd even prefer the current bonus over that just for the odd times I muck about with the ion pistol. A 10 round bonus? Perhaps somewhat useful, but still worse than the Minmatar bonus for no reason at all.
The bonus we have on the Galassault at the moment is not unique. It's the exact same thing provided by the operations and sharpshooter skills.
Nothing provides an overheat reduction for laser weaponry other than the Amarr assault bonus. Nothing provides a clip size increases for projectile weaponry, other than the Minmatar assault bonus. That's what I mean by the bonus being unique.
Not everyone is likely to check every section of the forums before posting.

10 rounds is almost a full second longer than what you can currently hold down r1, not to be sniffed at if you ask me. then you have 28 clip duvolle tac, 46 clip breach and 70 clip burst
Yes, and meanwhile there's another bonus doing exactly the same thing which gives 25% - a larger bonus.
Why is it a problem here and not on the CR?
You've also just highlighted a problem with this scenario. You've got almost a 100% increase on the TAR while you've got a less than 20% increase on the Duvolle. That's not exactly balanced.
