I started of gal assault and later went commando as well . Been playing about 9 months. Could use some advice on fitting or playstyle etc.
I got 4 fits 2 throwaways and 2 proto and only run com mods
Quafe kin cat repair and armor w/ glu and breach smg
Quafr 3 kin cats shotty and toxin dmg
Fed gko kin 3 reps armor 2light dmg and 1 sidearm with duv spec AR and brech smg
Gko 4 reps 1armor same 2light dmg mods duv TAC Breach smg
I usually run patrols about 60metrs fro. The letter. Take out stragglers and call out large pushes. Occasionally charge the point if it looks plausible. I know how to use cover and who to pick a fight with. I just want to get even better with it but don't know how. I gave up on cqc because REs always get me while fighting someone else and I know sentinels are cqc kings.

You should build your suits with ProtoFits.
It gives you specific stats on your frames that aren't in-game.

General Armor Tanker Advice:
COVER COVER COVER. You have great passive reps. Abuse it. Strafe in and out of cover, and don't be afraid to take damage. You never stop repping.
Learn to respect HMG's and CR's. They are Armor shredding nightmares. If you see a ScR or AR, RUSH THE DUDE. You can tank the damage long enough to kill him if you are running damage mods.
Gallente Assault Advice:
Just because your'e a Gal Assault, it doesn't mean that you can't use speed mods. As some Gallente loyalist said in one thread "Arkena is more of a CreoDron guy. Lots of tank and rep. I'm more of a Duvolle. Fast, and aggressive." Don't be pulled into the HP King Armor Sterotype. You have low slots, so try and mix it up with some Kincats or Damps from time to time.
Experiment with the different Gallente weapons. Burst AR's are great when you get a feel for the rhythm, and this also holds true for the Tac AR. The Tac AR on a high rep suit at range can be very deadly, so long as you abuse cover.
That hipfire dispersion also applies to shotguns...... just saying. Remember those low slots? Pack on 2 damps, 2 speed, and a ferroscale. Throw on a shotgun with damage mods and give it a go, it's more fun that you think.
Having trouble with heavies? Plasma Cannon. Seriously. It's practically a OHK. Sprint in, tank the damage for a split second and pop one in half.
Ion Pistol is actually a fantastic sidearm. It has accurate hipfire on a Proto Assault, and can pack quite the punch when charged. Never open with a charge shot. Spam shots until they are low on health. If they duck behind cover, charge the shot and drop them. Charge is also fantastic at removing scouts, IF you can aim.
Hope this helps!

Ghost that was just the answer i was looking for. I have tried all of said weapons but never in such ways. Id put 5 kin cats on my gko. Id charge chot everything with my ion no exceptions.The range is pitiful though. I can finish targets with the breach smg at almost ar range. Never used the plasma for infantry unless i was in my commando. Also I am too scared to abuse my cover solo . Even though my hp will be back in 15 seconds there is almost always someone I'm unaware of when I have attempted to do so. I usually get in cover only to be found by the friendly enemy scout. But if I have a logi with a focus you ******* bet I will be a bullet sponge in some situations.
I like all the ARs but the burst is the worst solo gun in my opinion. Ive ran with 2 gal assault with burst ars. Its a beautiful thing. I less respect crs and hmgs and more fear them. If i have no shields then just 5 cr taps or a small hold of the hmg trigger will **** all over me.Real fast. I will take into consideration what you said. See how well I like it.

Thanks checkmate but isnt that pretty much the exact same fit i posted originally ? I also did post this from my phone so it wasn't exactly easy to read. Appreciate the input. I've never tried scans on an assault before.

If you want to excel in CQC consider switching out your SMG for an Ion Pistol or Scrambler Pistol. The Ion Pistol will one shot almost all scouts and a few militia suits. The Scrambler Pistol is a bit more forgiving if you tend to miss a lot but has a decent head shot multiplier that will reward you a ton.
I'd look into them for killing scouts and heavies.
Put your flags up in the sky.
And wave them side to side.

You're doing absolutely fine.
You know how to fit a Gallente Assault suit in different ways but no it's up to you to find the way that works best for you.
I'm a fan of being Agile with Reps while dealing massive DPS.
While I don't use Kinkats on my suit I'm not slowed down in anyway because I only fit Ferroscale Plates. This allows me to easily jump over obstacles to get the jump on, access unusual areas or escape from hot zones in ways that are hard to reach me unless a scout suit is following me. It only takes one plate to hinder you from jumping over most of the railing and boxes in this game.
I may not be the most armored Gallente Assault suit with only 591 armor and 194 shields but my 23 hp/s reps and striking amount of DPS more than make up for it all while easily being able to jump in cover for a few seconds and have most of my health back.
My suit would be more of an Attacker kind of suit if this were to be translated into EVE ship classes.
Last time I spoke to cat about suits he prefered Reactives and Kincats and some shield padding - Combat While Arkena prefered Basic Plates and Reps.
I also play around with a Damped Gallente Assault fitting I'm trying to Iron out but it's not completely there yet but it is getting there.

Hmm ferroscales you say? I might give em a shot. I never really considered them useful . It would be nice to jump over railings .

You could more than likely swap out the Ion Pistol for the submachine gun you like which are better and cost much less PG anyway.
Three Complex Damage Mods for the Proto Tier suit Two Enhanced Damage Mods for the Advanced One Basic Damage mod for the Standard Assault.
The DPS is very rewarding for the ambush, mobile fighting style I usually deal with, but catch me out in the Open and I will have problems.

Gal assault is a wonderful suit, very flexible for many different applications. Almost everyone elses options for speed/gank/tank are all viable.
My go to proto is as follows, but it's a real tight fit, needs some fitting skills up there to complete.
Two enhanced plates: Complex slows you down too much imo, enhanced gives plenty of buffer and retains enough speed to keep me happy and away from heavies, {seriously, you don't want Caldari/Minmatar sentinels running faster than you do, it's terrifying.)
Three complex reppers: Constant 30 hp/s? Yes please! Repping through damage by popping in and out of cover every 3 seconds and already having 100 extra hp is ~soooooo~ gratifying.
One or two complex shield extenders: I know shield is dirty squid territory, but I almost always run an extender on my fits above standard. It provides a nice buffer against CR and RR users who get the drop on you and it gives you time to react or GTFO before they start tearing into your armor. This is where you can make fitting sacrifices if necessary, drop one of them down to advanced if the rest won't fit.
One or two complex damage mods: ARs and damage mods on Gallente fits are absolute law. I always run one light and 50% of the time the second damage mod will be for sidearm damage as I use the ion pistol -constantly-. A damage modded IP tears everything up, no exceptions, (unless of course they're greater than 30m away, then you're boned...)
Proto Gallente light weapon of choice: I love them all, but nothing beats seeing Federation Duvolle Specialist Assault Rifle pop up on the killboard. Also it helps with fitting being a specialist variant. Standard fitting for a Duvolle is 90-13, having your skills up on the specialist drops the requirement to 30-3.
Ion Pistol: I stick with the basic variant. I find it kills everything just fine and dandy as it is, especially if coupled with a complex damage mod.
Locus Grenade of your choice: I like M1s. Basics if your fitting isn't up to snuff. Cores will also fit if you sacrifice elsewhere. I insist on locus though as your damage modded AR and IP tear away shields anyways, go for the kill!
Basic Nanohive: They work. If you sacrifice grenades completely and have stellar fitting skills, you can actually fit the advanced hives that also give 20hp/s and those do wonders for real tight situations. Seriously, having that extra 40hp/s on top of your base 30 hp/s for 70 hp/s is ridiculous, you can solo brick wall small groups hard until you kill them/backup arrives/the nanohives run out....

Triage hives are your friend.
If you carry Alloteks, you can chuck a couple of them down in a tight spot and you can hold off anything bar heavies and large scale offensives. You're extremely vulnerable to grenades, but you can seriously hold a position with 40 HP/s healing backing you up.
If you carry Wiyrkomis, you won't be able to restock ammo, but holding a position in two of those will give you 140 HP/s. That's insane. Only HMGs and explosives will be able to take you 1v1.

I have respecced 9 since they released times trying to find the perfect suit. I now have my gallente commando and assault maxed out. Cores maxed with no points into ewar. I have shotty and ar trees fived out. Smg is almost there. Only equipment i have is rep tools. I know compact hives are great but i just never used em too often and I prefer guns that conserve ammo. I don't use grenades on my assault because my commando does not have them.
If my gko cant throw a core locus into a room before i walk in with a shotty and ar then my damn assault shouldnt be able to either. Im all about cloning and surviving in my suits with the exception of my chubby chaser commando . That mofo is meant to keep a heavy alive in situation that most regular logis cant survive.
Ive used shield extenders dampeners precison enhancers myofibs on my assault . The whole shebang. I do derp a lot with friends. Im glad i got an idea of some other fits that people run so i can try them when im serious.

I love the Repair / Ammo hives because they are very Gallente.
In a way they are like the Wiyrkomi's for the Gallente. We already have high reps so with an Allotek hive or Repair/ammo hives we usually get around 55-70 hp/s on top of Ammo Restoration.
I am very happy with Roden Shipyards Allotek
