I would like for a skill to be added that allows you to increase your clip size.
They just lowered the clip size of my Breach Assault Rifle and I find that to be ridiculous. I would like a skill that would increase the clipsize by 10% each level.
What do you people think? |

Maybe you should stop using military grade weapons to hold your things in place?

A 50% clip size increase from a skill would be utterly obscene. No.
Also, no, because clip sizes are generally good atm.
Sometimes, one just has an overwhelming urge to throw a potato at someone.

3% would be acceptable

At 3% a level
Mass Driver 6 shots: Level V would give it 0.9 Shots
Swarm Launcher 3 shots: Level V would give it 0.45 shots
Breach Shotgun 2 shots: Level V would give it 0.3 shots
Plasma Cannon 1 shot: Level V would give it 0.15 shots

This skill would be absolutely/practically useless for some weapons, and provide absurdly powerful bonuses to others.
Absolutely useless:
Plasma Cannons.
Flaylocks.
Breach Shotgun.
Breach Forgegun.
Practically useless:
Scrambler Rifle
Assault Scrambler Rifle.
Laser Rifle.
Ion Pistol.
Absurdly Powerful:
Everything else.

Are you dumb? Reducing the clip size was a counter-balance to INCREASING the damage per bullet!!! If you want larger clips, then run Minmatar with combat rifles.

While I am opposed to the idea, I could think of one way:
+3% Increase To Magazine Size and +1 Increase To Launcher Weapon Magazine Size per Level.

That would be insanely OP for Plasma Cannons, and would strongly devalue the Officer Plasma Cannon.

You'd also get a 9 round Forge Gun, which means you can basically go to town with the AFG. I don't even want to know the horror that an 8 round Swarm Launcher would cause...
There's a reason why I said I'm opposed.

How about a different skill with different bonus amounts for each weapon, so they can be scaled accordingly? |

How would that work for a Plasma cannon such that each level of the skill was useful? Or a Breach Shotgun? Or Swarm Launcher? Even at +1 per level the skill would be horrifically overpowered.

Not only that, but it makes weapons very difficult to balance against each-other.

Just don't have mag capacity skills for those weapons. Not every weapon has sharpshooter. |

And for weapons that are limited by small magazines such as the Combat rifle? This still would remove the primary factor that keeps them balanced.

The skill would just be OP for basically every weapon.
It would become like the old sharpshooter in Chromosome. Everyone would need it to be competitive, and it would create an absurdly large gap between noob and vet. Even if it was something as small as 2-3% per level.

True. There's only one weapon I can think of that it wouldn't be OP for. The Charge Sniper. Like if level 5 mag capacity allowed for a 5 round magazine. |

The BAR had a ridiculous clip that has since been fixed. It remains to be seen if the pendulum went too far the other way.
I'm not sure that a clip size skill would do anything but broaden the gap between low and high SP players.
Therefore, I do not support the idea. If the clip size nerf was too strong, we should fix that first rather than introduce a new skill/dynamic to the game (and further rebalancing).
IMO of course.  |

See guys! A reasonable solution!
By making it a module that you have to equip and sacrifice a slot, instead of a passive skill, it suddenly becomes a good idea.

That would make an awesome module. It would have to be a very slow regenation, so it doesn't make Nanohives useless, but it could be balanced.

Could be a low slot module, give Shield Tankers a lot of room to stay out on the field and continue hit-and-run style attacks. In fact, that'd be about perfect IMO. Armor Tankers are in it for the short term, taking damage and dealing it whereas Shield Tankers are able to continue an engagement for as long as they'd like. Like a really annoying vulture.
Caldari Commando Snipers would be really interesting as well.

How about an equipment?
Assaults could get fitting reduction to it.
And it wouldn't harm their tank,just their ability to support.
(This could help logistics get more desireable too. )
