I'm planning on using the SP from the upcoming event to skill into an assault suit.
After scanning the suit bonuses it seems at first glance that the Min and Amarr have the most useful.
Caldari and RR reload speed and Gal and AR hipfire dispersion doesn't seem on par with laser overheat and projectile magazine size.
But before I make a decision I would very much appreciate feedback from the proletariat with experience in assault suits. Any regrets, advice etc so that I might avoid additional bitterness?
I'm not bitter.

i regret getting the caldari assault because the rail rifle just sucks in PC. i have ran all assault suits for a long time and the only true useful one to strike fear into the enemy team is the amarr.

I have the minmatar assault and its really fun and versatile, although its not all that useful for planetary conquest. Regardless, you ahould probably wait till after hotfix delta to get a suit. Some pretty radical changes are happening to the rifles.

I can speak to the Amarr Assault. Do not regret it one bit! That being said, remember that while the Amarr assault bonus is so nice for the laser rifle and the scrambler rifle, its role is very rigid in this regard.
I think the Minmatar offers a little more flexibility perhaps but of course you can always fit however you wish no matter what suit.

I run a proto assault Amarr suit and I highly enjoy it! I also have the scrambler maxed out so I'm taking advantage of its passive bonus. I'd say that Amarr assault is a great choice because it has enough PG/CPU (with passive skills) to have a lot of HP, a quite good speed (you can use 5 ferroscale/reactive so you are still fast), a great DPS even with non laser weapon as Duvolle or RR because of the 3 slots available for damagers, and then the usual assault slot of weapon and equipment. Even in Adv lvl it still does a great job and can have a lot of HP/dps! I believe it's one of the best suit to run with a good logi on your back!
Then, I never tried minmatar assault so others will give you better advices, but according to what I see IG and the stats it gives, it looks really appealing: good shield regen and really fast suit that can hit pretty hard witha combat rifle.
I hope I helped you ;)
Sorry for my bad english ^^

My alt runs Amarr assault. Those things are damn deadly. Nice defense and with a SCR, you're essentially the terminator. But after delta, Im not sure how much that will change.

I enjoy my proto cal assault. Makes a great AV fit(swarms, magsec, AV nades). Just remember to pack hives cause ammo goes quick.
Have you considered a career in costumed aggression?

Amarr Assault - Very efficient with Scr/Ascr/LR however harder to use with other guns effectively. Average max proto HP- 900 armour 200 shields (no reps)
Min Assault- Very customisable and can easily be geared towards speed. Great bonus to ACR/CR/SMG clip size. (Average max proto HP- 450 shields 600 armour (no armour reps but high shield)
Cal Assault- Easily the best solo assault, very effective in ambush and at long range combat especially. *DON'T UNDERESTIMATE THE BONUS* Average max proto HP- 650 shields 400 armour
Gal Assault- Very viable, tough suit to kill... equally lethal with a RR however bonus is helpful especially when facing multiple enemies. Average max proto HP- 300 shields 1000 armour
FIGURES QUOTED ARE AVERAGE PROTO MAXIMUMS AND BY NO MEANS INDICATIVE OF NORMAL FITS

I've never run a Caldari or Amarr Assault, just for reference...
I currently run Minmatar Assault up to Proto and Gallente to Advanced, though I had it to Proto for a long time, but different times.
Minmatar has a great bonus and that 4-4 split is quite nice. I run more shield based health with my lows being reps, kin cats, camps, shield regulators and what not. There is a lot you can do with that suit, especially if you can handle less health.
Gallente, well, I always loved that suit. When I run mine, I go with a higher Rep rate, with a moderate armor amount, I like my speed. While the bonus isn't the greatest, it is decent and usable. The little bit of built in Reps is also handy if you're wanting to be a heavy..I guess.
From what I've seen of the Amarr, spam a Viziam, though there are those skilled Scrambler users out there, and stack that thing with armor, and then stack more armor.
Caldari... Its a suit.
If you find an issue and I stumble upon your thread, I will do my darnedest to get the issue known.
Also, Raptors...

Personally I'm a fan of the Gal Assault.
Using 3 Reps and 2 plates at proto level I have 30/s Armor Rep and enough HP to tank quite a few shots. In close counters and cover it is really hard to take me down. The bonus doesn't sound good on paper in comparison to Min and Amarr assaults but in practice it really helps you land your shots with the AR while hip firing. |

I'm skilling up to advanced, and I'm very impressed with it at basic. I've been able to kill proto scouts effectively with it.

Assault suits are where they need to be compared to Logi and Heavy suits.
Scouts... not so much. (Though that has more to do with how the scanning system, and cloaks, works than anything else.)
