So I see these different suits...shock assault, caldari c-1 series, minmitar assault, commando suits...What is the difference?
I see a commando with low PG/CPU and alright hitpoints (100/220) and then I see a cheaper caldari c-1 Series with better stats than listed? Is there an extra weapon slot, or damage multipliers/decreases to suits? What is the difference between a normal shock assault suit and a minmitar assault suit?
Also, to whoever uses commando suits pleases list the pros and cons vs normal series suits. :) |

For more information on any suit, go to Marketplace or Assets, if you want to view information on items you already have, and press triangle on them. Throughout the different screens, you are able to view what the suit offers; such as:
-eHP
-Speed
-Regen
-slots
-and more!
Be aware that these are the starting stats and that increasing your core skills WILL improve any and all suits, without changing the suit description.
Minmatar commandos are the fastest Commandos around. They have a bonus to explosive Light weapons (Swarm Launchers, Mass Drivers) and projectile weapons (Combat Rifle). I don't know what you man the normal one. If you mean the basic frame, well that one can equip a heavy and sidearm, while the Commando can fit two lights. Also, basic heavies and sentinels carry grenades. Commandos don't. Instead, they carry equipment.
Thanks, I needed that info. Time to skill into the command...I just used 350k SP on minmitar logistics to put more uplinks and a longer cloak on. Dang it! |

Also, to whoever uses commando suits pleases list the pros and cons vs normal series suits. :) Commando suits: Pro: you get two light weapons allowing for some decent wombo combos. Commandos make good squad support with the ability to carry AV and a rifle or a MD/SR and a rifle. Cons: Pretty much everything else. A well fitted medium suit of equal tier will be faster, have a smaller hitbox, and can have near your e/hp at adv or pass you in e/hp at proto level. Also keep in mind, Core skills make a huge difference. My adv suits have similar stats to proto suits on players who haven't leveled up their core skills. In the long run, it's cheaper isk wise to focus on Core skills (Skills that give a passive boost to all suits which are found in Dropsuit Upgrades tree) then to sp rush to proto only to bankrupt yourself in matches. Also as has been mentioned, keep in mind this is a terminal game. Most of CCP's Dust team is working on another project code named Legion for the PC which will likely replace Dust. As far as we know though Legion may not even make it out of development so eh. If this doesn't bother you welcome, and prepare to get wrecked repeatedly by players with far more sp then you will probably ever have. P.S. Be wary of Corps. If they have a tax rate higher then 0.0% then leave the Corp. It's a tax farm scam that a lot of players use to fund their excessive isk habits. The only corps that should have a tax rate are ones that are trying to get into PC/are in PC and as a new player you won't be doing that for a long time if ever.
Lol i have 12 mil skill points, i aint no newbie. I was just asking about the command suit since i was always using pro to assault rifles and pro to assault suits |

If you have a lot of SP into Assault Rifle skills, you should invest into Gallente Commandos. They get an additional damage bonus to ARs, and you can carry 2 of them at the same time.
Yeah, i have been saving up SP to skill into the commando suit, but for now just been fighting for imperial loyalty points to use the Imperial commando dropsuit. Sucks because everytime i try to find a faction wars battle the estimated time is 00:00 and i never find one! |
