No, this isn't some FotM thread since i am pretty sure the minmitar assault is the new FotM (fetish of the month). Continuing:
Caldari assault pros and cons:
Pros:
Extremely high regeneration (up to 217 shield/second at 2.7 seconds delay)
Extremely high shield tanking (up to 641 shield, check as i have not fully shield tanked my assault for a while)
Reload speed of weapons
Looks
Great sniper suit (5 highs, 5 damage mods)
Movement speed average when tanked
Cons:
Weakness against shield weaponry
Horrid 1v1 suit
Unable to be logi'd
Amarr assault pros and cons:
Pros:
High armor tank ability
Able to be logi'd
Shield weaponry bonus
Damage mod ability
Great 1v1 suit
Cons:
Slow movement speed when tanked
Horrid armor repairing ability
Looks like a dinosaur
I brought out some pros and cons in case you missed some when you draw your conclusions. I think the caldari is the best...you?
scout ck.0 here!

707 is the max shields you get with 5 complex shield extenders and max skills.
634 with 4 shield extenders and a recharger (614 with a complex energizer).
Thanks, normally i just completely stack energizers and regulators

meh
you and i have different playstyles then...caldari is a good suit for taking out multiple people at once due to high regenerations
amarr is the king of 1v1 due to high eHP

You could probably build an Amarr Assault to do the Passive Healing thing better than a Caldari Assault. 3 Complex Armor Repairers and 2 Feroscale gives you ~586 Armor and 28.13 Repair a second. That also doesn't slow them down. If you are going for the super fast repair rate, that seems like it could work. It also has the advantage of continuously Repairing if you take damage.
When they are engaging you around cover...take one out with barely any health left, regenerate in 4 seconds then engage the other guy coming for you who has no cover (rail rifle OP in this situation) He dies and the last guy is at your flank a few seconds from you noticing you have no health left, almost...cocky he is, ramming straight after you then BOOM! RE kill, or you hide for long enough for your shield to regenerate then spray him with your sidearm.
The amarr assault would be dead by the time the last guy flanks him

I don't run the cal assualt very often, and I've never used the Amarr Assault. FWIW, I mostly run Cal/Am Scout with an occasional Am Heavy or Gal Logi. That said, I"m not sure how shield tanking helps you take out multiple people at once, unless you're staying far away from the action. I like my kills up close, generally.
Regeneration wise, engaging from 80+ metres...read the post above
