What makes it even worse, some FW like Amarr is sucky to the extreme
from monday to friday, only weekends kinda has them see some few wins.
Partly because despite buffs, amarr tech is still perceived as inferior
in performance, therefore less desired by the organized masses.
I know this sounds kind of heretic given the last AScr buff, but Iam talking
the whole spectrum: suit speeds, stamina regeneration, weapons, their spectrum
of usage (CR, ACR, MD, SMG, FL, RE) and their ease of use w/o any downsides at all,
suit bonuses and versatility (Minmando, MinAss), Repair tool vs. drop uplinks.
Its not about clear OP criterias, there are none that deserve the term obvious or extreme,
it is about gear spectrum, versatility and perception.
And perception seems basically unchanged no matter the buffs.
Quite to the contrary:
the damage buff to AScr has made this weapon easier to handle
for all other but AmAss suits thereby further devaluated it and it's bonus:
GåÆ AmAss is less desirable now,
GåÆ AmLogistics always inferior to MinLogi bonus and bonus-bug (bonus
application loss after death) wise,
GåÆ AmCommando a joke due to lack of versatility,
GåÆ AmScout useless as ever.
This leads to Amarr LP and standings gain to be nothing but painful day in, day out
and nothing to make this pain worthwhile.This whole LP event is a bad joke for AFW.
Apologies for the whining, but AFW does not get any better with the years, and it
feels as if CCP does not care at all. This is massively frustrating.
Iam doing AFW mainly for lore and fandom reasons. Pubs are a necessary evil to get by.
This is not the rule for most other FWers, and I can't blame them. Simply wished
CCP found a way to make Amarr FW attractive...somehow. |

Won every match Aero and I queued for yesterday which would have been about 6 or so battles. Also your assertion the Amarr Commando is useless if very very mistaken. They still remain the best Heavy Infantry option IMO in the game.
Iam on the whole week, not just yesterday, and most matches are simply losses, horrendous losses.
Your assertion of Ammando is based on what again? Minmando has more weapon versatility (CR, ACR, MD,
MissileLauncher), much better speed and regeneration. Same for GalAssault. Only other suit slightly as bad is
Cal-Commando, though it still has more weapon range-versatility (SniperRifle, RR, ARR).
And it is not your opinion alone that counts and has AFW on the losing side most times, it is the aggregated
opinions of all FW players that decide over organized spuad participation. One or two q-syncing Amarr squads
over one evening in the week are not even close to an argument against 7-8 minmatar squads q-syncing all
evening.
But thank you for your attempt at giving me some kind of a heads up. It is dearly needed  . |
