[C.DAS] Caldari Assaults & Suggested Skillplan
The Caldari Assault is one of the most commonly encountered Caldari dropsuits and for good reason - assaults are one of the most balanced suits in the game. Assaults in general have the highest inherent HP of medium frames and the large numbers of high and low slots they gain from progressing up dropsuit tiers allows them a lot of fitting versatility. The Caldari assault in particular has above average shield repair and relatively low shield delays, meaning that when properly fitted they can both have and recover large amounts of HP in short periods of time. These are durable long range fighters, though they only have mediocre electronic warfare stats. Assault rails should be used for shorter range engagements, Standard Rails should be used for longer range engagements, when using automatic weaponry like the rail rifles, pistol style weapons like the bolt pistol are highly complementary.

MINA Longstrike Kirjuun Heiian 2195	Posted - 2015.02.16 17:54:00 - [2] - Quote I have my basic bullet points down, descriptions of weapons done, working on suggested skill paths for each suit. I'll need to do some fluff things and hammer out descriptions / recommended fits. Not sure if I should put some stuff in about warbarge. Aiming to have suggested skill paths for 750k, 1m, 1.5m and 2.5m I think. Also have a decent little bit about what caldari suits can be expected to play like based on a mlt frame. It'll take a few days to put up though I'm not able to get on forums on my computer just yet. Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. Kirjuun Heiian. I have a few alts.
MINA Longstrike Kirjuun Heiian 2206	Posted - 2015.02.19 12:48:00 - [3] - Quote Will ask here as Arkena hasn't responded to my ingame - it would help me a lot if I could use some of your stuff in regards to the explanations of fittings and skills.

MINA Longstrike Kirjuun Heiian 2212	Posted - 2015.02.20 01:23:00 - [4] - Quote Awesome, thanks. Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. Kirjuun Heiian. I have a few alts.
MINA Longstrike Kirjuun Heiian 2215	Posted - 2015.02.20 11:13:00 - [5] - Quote Re-looking at Arkenas gallente guide it seems like some of the stuff about skills and fittings could be moved into the intended 'master' newbie guide if/when that gets done as its all generalized information useful for all the guides. Also had a talk with soul the other day on helping collab on new vehicles when they drop. Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. Kirjuun Heiian. I have a few alts.

I'm futzing about with commandos, sentinels and logi's and trying not to hate too much on sniper rifles. I'm trying to detail effective skillplans starting at 1.5m sp and then explain the choice of skills that go into it, and then maybe do a more advanced skill plan later (because the scout role bonus really prevents them from actually using a cloak field until they have scout 4 or 5). I'm being a little lazy, because of the stuff I want to include. I'll post a portion of what I've got currently for the cal assault.

The cal assault has already been double-checked to make sure that stuff fits onto it (2ext, 1 recharger, 1 reactive, locus, rail/arr, bolt pistol). Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. Kirjuun Heiian.

MINA Longstrike Kirjuun Heiian 2583	Posted - 2015.04.17 13:21:00 - [8] - Quote I've been being lazy with my stuff, Got to the cal commando and took a break for a bit. Also needed to re-assess a decent bit of information with the most recent hotfix (and the 'breach' assault HMG and myo changes). Part of it has been me wanting to get a lot more play in as a cal commando / sentinel. Hnolai ki tuul, ti sei oni a tiu. Kirjuun Heiian. I have a few alts.
