I still think that jumping over explosives is ridiculous though. Thats why grenades that arent cooked are worthless Mass Drivers don't have that problem.
Good combo is the Mass Driver + SMG on a minmatar assault. The minmatar assault bonuses the SMG, basically turning it into an off-hand light weapon.
This combo is best when there are lots of rabbity scouts around, it will destroy them. That "O ****" expression when they realize that their strafe glitching doesn't help against the weapon designed to kill strafers! Hahahaha >:3
That combo is also good for slaying those pesky strafy minmatar assaults. Very good at killing the shotgun version too.
For general gameplay, however, the Combat rifle + smg combo works **** because BOTH weapons are bonused by the minmatar assault.
The gallente works well with their ion pistol + mass driver, the ion pistol is like a baby tac ar.
The Amarr work fine with their scrs, although the assault scr is scarier for my minsault than the scr.
The caldari get the short stick because their weaponry is all long range, but, the big humongous butt sitting in the room... is that caldari can make good use of the other race's weaponry, and their high shields with fast shield regen makes them very competitive in cover to cover md gameplay + smg.
These combos are mostly just specific for hard countering strafers (specifically strafe glitchers - they give up a ton of hp to pull it off, so basically, they buff the md against them!)
Not too good against heavies, however, the smg is a heavy eater on the minsault, but throw in a remote explosive, and boom, you suddenly have a tool for dealing with pesky heavies. Now you can deal with strafe glitching scouts/ assaults (MD), most assaults (smg + md) and heavies (SMG or RE).
This combo is a very specialized combo, there are areas it will not excel in, so its good to have a second fit with a primary rifle + sidearm (CR + SMG) (AR + SMG) (RR + SMG) Bolt pistol works, but is best on heavy, imo.
