the Gallente Commando is a beast of a suit, but Commandos in general are not worth running Proto since they only have 2 slots more than the standard. I trained the skill soley for the damage and reload.

I wanted a suit that could drive the Plasma Cannon to its full potential, and the Galmmando delivered. Like a hot pizza. But instead of pizza it was plasma. And instead of delicious it was lethal. But PLC tears are delicious, oh so delicious.

Well like I said it makes use of the Plasma Cannon very well if that's your thing. Shotguns are questionable on a suit so slow, which leaves you with the Assault Rifle which is rather UP right now. So I think it's more the AR being bad and not so much the Commando's bonuses.
As for slot layout, I'd love to actually use a proto suit and feel like a proto suit, but when a Proto Commando has the same number of slots as a Standard Logistics...

Oh there are situations where I'll stick the ole' Dren Shotty on my Galmmando, but typically I run PLC + Exile

But if you play it from the back/rear, it's a pretty deadly suit. Just gotta have squadmates willing to stick around to help watch your ass. I run mine with a kin cat so it at least has acceptable speed.
I do too actually haha. Standard fit is a KinKat or Cardia Reg, and a complex armor rep

I enjoy running commando, but going from a Minmatar Scout to the Gallente Commando (Rep Tank) is a bit too much, sometimes. I wish they were a bit faster. Even with a CPX kincat, it's still too slow for me.
Yeah you just have to remember that they're not an assault class. They're more like a rear-guard, providing support from the back of the group. I tend to prefer the slow brawler fits, but I can see how going from Scout to Commando can be tough.

Can't do anything in CQC either unless against starter fits.
It's just a soft baloon that's too easy to hit.
You'll do better with any assault suit or scout. I think you may just be bad with the suit.... Gal commando is probably the best. Vehicles? No prob. PLC is pretty good AV. Scouts? Pull out the shotgun Ranged enemies? AR says hi
Minmatar is pretty solid too with a Combat Rifle and Swarms.

PLC is the worst AV. If you want to kill with it, you need a scout with remotes and AV nades. PLC alone sucks.
Scouts with shotguns will kill you before you know it.
AR sucks at range. You'll get owned by any other rifle. AR is best with any other suit, especially Gal assault.
Actually I'm gonna have to disagree with you on that one. With Commando V and PLC Reload V, the overall DPS on the PLC is extremely high against shields, particularly once you get your Prof. up. It suffers against armor of course, but no more than Swarms suffer against shields.
