- Commandos feel amazing now. I wish we had a few more weapons for them to work with though, preferably a light AV Laser and light AV rail weapon.
- Commando EWAR is still frustratingly bad. Id like to see it improved a bit.
- Minmatar Commando's shield recharge rate feels a tad too low.
- Having lots of fun with Assaults now, though I think a rework of their bonuses still needs to happen, as they are lackluster.
- Scrambler Rifles still seem to melt me far too quickly, even if I'm in an armor suit.
- Domination has some serious issues.
- Ambush has some serious issues.
- Passive Armor Reps still need to be changed to active modules.
- Shield Boosters need to have their function modified to provide similar HP regen potential to equivalent armor modules.
More to come with additional testing.

More to come with additional testing. They need to get the Caldari Commando to benefit from using their own dang swarm launcher.
Either way I'd like to see a Light AV weapon that each racial commando can get use with its damage bonus.

Curious. Specifically, what do you find frustrating? What improvements do you have in mind?
Mostly the lack of sight. I think their scan precision is a bit too high, and while its only 5 points higher than an Assault, it also had quite a few less slots to work with in many cases. So while the increased slot count does help, I wish I was a little less blind to with my passive scans.

At range, however, Active Scans are vastly more powerful than Passives. For the Commando's mid-range scans (the next step up) to beat a decent Active Scanner, you'd have to buff the Commando's precision to equal the Logi/Assault and run 2+ complex precision enhancers.
TL;DR: A 5dB precision buff wouldn't hurt, but I honestly don't know that it'd help either.
I'll admit I have not run the numbers much on the EWAR specifically. I will also say I will see the enemy within the short range zone, which is typically when the first shotgun shot hits haha. But yes I'd have to run the actual numbers to see what would need to happen....but at the very least personal gameplay experience feels like *something* should happen, ya know?
