Having issues with fitting most, the one worst of is cal com because tbh shield mods are overcosted.

I believe there is some consideration of giving them more fittings (it was in my proposal to CCP) once the effects of the current changes are clear. Iterative balance and all you know
Glad to hear there's some progress made for them, I find my MinMando to be more useful now but I'm only one player, still very much looking for the input of others here.
CPM 1 mail me your feedback and remember to have fun!

Need more weapon choices for cal/am.
Shield recharge is atrocious.
But commandos are fun as hell to run.
WoW has taught me that Purple means Legendary. This means Quafe suits are the optimal loadout for killing all of you.

That's the other thing with shield commandos, I find that most go "omg dmg mods" rather than trying to build a proper tank (which isn't possible for reasons) but I'd be hesitant to change them because I think it might still lead to "omg dmg mods" just on more survivable suits.

The shield recharge needs to be fixed on the commandos.
And I triple mod calmandos. But I'm aldo trying to countersnipe with them, not win any survivor awards.

Running neck and neck with assaults for the most part.
The only two major problems are lack of weapon variety on cal and amarr.
The cal suffers solidly from craptastic shield regeneration stats.
The minmatar is :okay: because of similar crap regen stats.
Right now after a couple days to percolate the information, the gallente and amarr overshadow both the minmatar and caldari overall PURELY because of survivability. The raw HP is fine, but by the time cal/min commandos begin recharging an amarr or gallente commando could have already recovered upward of 100 HP and neither of the shield 'mandos breaks 20 regen/sec.

I'm not sure why the shield regen on the shieldmandos is so hilariously low.
At least it isn't 5HP/s like it used to be, lol.

Tried several variations of weapons on several races, seems the meta for heavies is mostly the same, but the HMG's have altered somewhat.
Speed nerf helped probably more then hurt - I can bring people down much quicker now that there strafe is more predictable, but it's made long range combat even harder with our larger hit boxes and now slower strafe speed.
Dual tanking seems to be what' in for PC - use of 2 plates and 2 Fero's. Seeing heavies with 1300+ armor, definitely stacking, and very hard to kill. But with reduced strafing it means aiming with strafe was nerfed too, which made it harder for the tanking heavies to aim.
So it's a formula turned worse for when 2 heavies engage and one's tanking, even if he has a logi he's likely to get out-maneuvered and then naded, as he can't escape from a timed core locus throw.
And if you do decide to tank - don't use burst or boundless, the reduction to range was evil of CCP, with no ability to reach your target you'll get tapped to death, little by little.

Basically even in CQC the AHMG does better, until Proto level. The Boundless still shreds pretty much everyone, so in consideration to proto only your list is right.
But for MLT, STD, ADV, you pretty much never want to use the original HMG for any reason. |

time to put some digits where my opinion is. And figure out the curve of DPS increase mods provide per variations and meta level and then compare it to the EHP gains.
Later i'm going to run some spread tests on the AHMG - it seems to have a wider spread then the other variants even though it shouldn't. |

Right now AHMG optimal is around 40.
HMG is half that pretty much.
Ahmg seems to apply bullets better.
HMG rage nerf made em so you almost be better off with a shotty

I've been mucking with the burst HMG and been finding that its really hard to apply dps from its bursts, might need a tiny bit more accuracy.
It feels like even when centered on target it misses a not-insignificant portion of its bullets. Or it might need to keep the spooled accuracy for longer.

I'd disagree. From experience I find the Base HMG does better for me CQC than the Assault, especially if it's not 1v1 or engagements in quick succession.

this is where we need the YMMV disclaimer.
For me the assault is superior at all levels.
This is one of those things that comes down to one thing: your playstyle. For some the HMG is beastmode. For others the AHMG is king. It comes down to your fit, personal tactics and habits.

Been spending some time de-rusting with my alt & his amarr commando and I'm really enjoying it.
If you're at long range I'll cut you down with the LR if you're at a shorter range I'll cut you up with an ASCR.
Gallente commandos have been unpleasant to fight though.
