My Proto suit is this: Complex Shield Recharger 4 Complex Shield Extenders 2 Complex Shield Regulators 1 Basic Cardiac Regulator Ishukone Rail Rifle Kaalakiota Magsec Wirykomi Nanite Injector
I can kinda keep myself in the positive KdR in this, but this is a Proto Suit costing a lot.
Ishukone gave me my papers to transfer into the State

Don't give up.
My varitions of the Caldari assault are heavy on shields and I only use an assault rifle these days. My proto fits use a Duvolle or Allotek, my standard use a Breach or Militia which are surprisingly effective if you have them maxed out.
I rarely use the RR now, it's no fun anymore. Kills are few and far between.
Can give you my loadouts if you want. |

The Assault version trades that off for a closer focus.
Use a Magsec with your Rail Rifle. It's great up close now that the kick is manageable AND it's Caldari if you want to stay pure. For some reason the Magsec sucks for me. I have it prof 3, but I just think I don't know how to use it.
It doesn't just suck for you it sucks in general. It's useful between 30-50m and hipfiring it is useless. It complements a Sniper, Forge Gunner, Swarm Launcher as they can use it almost as a rifle but it sucks in CQC and the hipfire is horrible. All other side arms are a better bet in CQC. |

You know boyo, RR was fine. It was great balanced weapon, but some people wanted it OP again (like before cqc nerf) and thats reason, why it is broken. Rail Rifle from start meant like automatic precission rifle (rifle for long and medium range) was too OP with its cqc capabilities and CCP nerfed it by "kick-like-mule" fix, what finaly balanced weapond and made it how it should be. Great Long2Medium range powerhouse. But some voices did not want to embrace balance and wanted to have the OPness of RR back and this is its son. Thats whole story of RR boyo and its sad, because i saw it like finalz balanced weapon and thx to some people its more broken than ever

So, I have finally gotten the hang of 1.9. At least I think I do. I just had to stop using my RR in medium or closer ranges. Magsec works like an assault rifle, just rail tech. Thanks guys, I think you guys helped a lot.

It's a wonderful beast in the right hands.
And the more you get used to the RR the more you'll be able to wield it in medium ranged fights. Knowing when to switch between weapons is the key to your Faction's Role success like you said.
Glad to see there's one more Caldari in this game that's actually Caldari they are far and few in between.

I run my Caldari suit like I did back in Chromosome. With a few small adjustments since modules and slots have been rebalanced.
Highs: 4 PRO Extenders, 1 Energizer/Recharger (alternate depending on tank needed) Lows: 2 PRO Shield Regulators, 1 PRO Cardiac Regulator (Caldari stamina and stamina regen sucks, this helps immensely) Light: Gallente AR of choice Side: Minmatar SMG of choice Grenade: ADV Flux Equip: typically hives, occasionally needles.
Even though the Caldari suit's bonus sucks, I still feel it out performs my Minmatar assault in most situations. Especially now that all suits have passive armor regen.

The bolt pistol is a great side arm ohk most scouts and really hurts everyone. I like the rail rifle changes and am currently specing into it. I am also working on ck assault I am not sure what to do with it until I get to play with it, but right now my plan is: 1-2 ferroscale plates 1-2 regulators 2 light dmg mods 1 side arm dmg mod 1 energizer and 1 extender

I'd love to see these two fits against each other but sadly no one knows how to properly fit a Caldari suit without armor stacking it. Whhaaat? You have brawled with me at least 3 times in FW, while I was in my pure shield tanked Cal assault. You beat me almost everytime, I was always too close to you. |

yep, because I don't even try to fight if you're 50 meters out. I'll just run away or not shoot at them until I can get you in my field.

Caldari Assault CK.O
Assault Rail Rifle Bolt Pistol 2 Energizers, 3 Extenders 2 Regulators, Reactive Plate Frag Grenade Injector
Requires a lot of movement between cover, sometimes needing to slowly wear down opponents accross several shorts bursts of action. You can use the assault rails natural range for mid-long ADS, can also sustain bursts of accurate hip fire at less than 15m
If engaging groups at range, the assault skill allows for constant pressure to be maintained.
The bolt pistol is a stalwart sidearm, works either as a finisher in a pinch, or as a defensive weapon firing off the hip and aimed shots at mid-range
A solo player can taie a nanohive instead of an injector Frag grenades are fairly self explanatory
"Regen tanking" can be tricky, but once u get the feel for it it can be very effective vs armour equivalents
