The best of the best migrate to "best", sometimes actually on orders, not by choice. Tactical commanders simply don't aloow sub-optimal choices in their PC team, regardless of player preferences.
I am actually kind of happy to see that the situation is as flavorful as it is. I expected absolute black and white. Sure, but don't you find the Amarr and Gal Sent with the HMG outstripping together the next 5 suit combinations combined, kind of over the top? Some trends here and there are to be expected, but this is more than a trend in my eyes.
It's one (point defence) game mode and it guarantees a city map, it's going to feature a lot of heavies

If heavies have the most kills and the most deaths, would they still need a nerf? Thier K/S ratio twould say a lot more than the blindingly obvious.
Heavies suits are made for upclose point defense, PC is about grabing a letter and point defense. You don't need to redline the other team, you just need the majority of letters and keep them. I would be hard pressed to say its a revelation that heavies have the most kills by a good margin. But if heavy kills are in junction with the rest of the game outside of PC, then nerfing them doesn't make sense.
It aking to saying Logis have the most triage WP by a good margin, therefore nerf. Nobody would be surprised if there was data tommorrow saying Logis on average get 25% more WP
Anothing thing i noticed my end was the claim that the "incubus is fine by proxy" made by Rattati, because of python kills in PC. The highest ranked Proto Incubus has 909 kills on the chart. Only about 7427 kills behind the Python. Just saying.
The HMG K/S is also too high, which is why we are acting on it, if it wasn't, we wouldn't.
Are you factoring in Logis? There's a reason the heavies being used are armour based...

Hey Rattati, a couple of questions
do you exclude logis when running rifle K/S stats?
is there a noticeable difference between shield vs armour suit performance?
(plus don't forget logi + heavy will affect the HMG performance)

I don't think get this spreadsheet
Is the first column total kills using the specific suit Third Column specific weapon 5th Column the combination of kills with that suit and that weapon
If so, then why has the python got 353,884 kills but there are only 11,647 kills for small turrets
