Seems when a gaggle of HMGs are going off nearby, framerate is at increased odds of taking a hit. Especially when in extreme close quarters (i.e. under 10m). Do you think the engine can process/compute faster HMG (or CR) fire without impacting performance? 2. TTK at the shallow end of the HP Pool presently leaves little room for error. Are you concerned about the possibility of creating new viability issues for units operating in the 215-400HP range? 3. Would love to see more module diversity in play and better armor v shield interplay, but couldn't these goals be accomplished more directly and at lesser risk/effort by simply making plates less attractive? 1. It would only effect fully automatic model's due to the fact that burst model have firing interval's, and tactical's are set to 600, you wouldn't see a considerable change. 2. The only way that could happen is as if they stacked ROF mod's in exchange for plates in the first place, you won't see people running stacked ROF mod's, you'll more than likely see 1 with less HP considering how high the ROF on most weapon's are. 3. You seem to forget that this RoF mod would also reduce the charge spool on caldari weapon's (I guess it would effect the SCR in term's of charge time rather than ROF anyhow) and given that their in the low slot, it would help shield's much more than armor's. People only seem to be thinking of min and amarr weapon's, but remember the human hand can only fire so fast on a tac (curse you modded controller's) and the burst weapon's have interval's. Still, your risking more HP and fighting against player's who may run anti armor weapon's like the RR's and such, if your a shield player, it'd help greatly to have a shield mod in the low's. When there is light, shadow's lurk and fear reign's... Yet by the blade of knight's, mankind, was given hope.

Remember how burst HMGs dramatically overpowered repair tools? Remember how everyone started using them because of that fact? Remember how they got drastically nerfed because of the fact they were so OP? I would like the ROF mods to effect equipment. More frequent scans. Faster repairs. Faster hive pulses. Faster cloak recharge. Etc. No. We allready have perma scanning gal. logis, reptools are allready borderline OP on minlogis and if you want to have a better cloak regen then use a better cloak. And lol nanohive. This here is about weapons, not equipment. I highly question it that anyone in their right mind would want that you could do perma scans with just 1 scanner. If you want a seperate module that affect equipment usage then make your own idea but do not try to pervert the idea of ROF modules to your liking. Rudimentary Mercs of scrubs and incompetence. You touch my mind, fumbling in Ignorance, incapable of understanding.

Give the Module an affect for if it is a charge up weapon it gives a shorter charge time EXCLUDING the RR the rail rifle is not really usable due to the insane hip fire kick. And as ive sayd it makes your gun shot faster and reduces the charge time for weapons that have a charge up time. Like forgeguns, rail rifles, bolt pistols, ion pistols etc. Its a simple design to approach DPS increase for shield tanked suits. It should aswell be obvious that the faster your gun fires the worse the dispersion and kick gets. But thats just normal for every FPS game. I'm sorry but the mechanics for this module seem a little complex idk if CCP would waste there time with a useless module Command gk.0 Sentinel gk.0

I'm sorry but the mechanics for this module seem a little complex idk if CCP would waste there time with a useless module It's not a complex mechanic, it's practically similar to the damage mod's, but effect's the stats of a weapons' charge time and ROF, and you say it's useless cause it would help weapon's with incomprehensibly slow fire rate's. Simply put: If a weapon has a charge spool (RR) it's charge spool would be effected and it's ROF, if it's simply a slow ROF weapon (BAR) then it simply get's the ROF increase, no charge time is in the BAR so it there. And if you increase the charge time for a scrambler shot, that in of itself would balance out the module. I used google to find the best number's, number's that would allow both caldari weapon's and other weapon's to improve, Charge Time Reduction: Basic 25% Adv 30% Proto 35% RoF Increase: Basic 6% Adv 8% Proto 10% Perfect number's, and if you actually read my comment's which I'm sure you probably, like most people do, ignore an entire page's worth of comment's that lead upto this. You also know that we (myself actually) came up with a solution for penalties in term's of stacking. Take your time and read the comment's. When there is light, shadow's lurk and fear reign's...

How is 'that logic flawed" if your assertion is true and scram/Tac AR get more of damage mods than ACRs? And how does that affect modded controllers? Or the self limiting factor of ROF modules where higher fire rates affect accuracy? You aren't making any sense to me -- so you'll have to explain this one.

Proto scrambler does 71,5HP damage add a +7% damage mod and you do 76,51HP damage Proto assault combat rifle does 21.83 HP damage add a +7% damage mod and you do 23.36HP damage As you can see the scrambler gets more damage per bullet then the ACR. The damage per clip on the scrambler rifle is significantly greater then that from the ACR. Rudimentary Mercs of scrubs and incompetence.

If weGÇÖre going to start taking gun drawbacks away then we must do them all. We need it as a way to increase the DPS on shield suits. Armor suits have damage mods to increase their DPS. The reason why shield suits+damage mods is a no go is simply the fact that you give up a primary module slot to gain damage, while on armor suits their primary tank stays intact when fitting damage mods into highslots. The grim alternative from Ratatti would be to move damage mods into lowslots and that would mean armor gets the short stick. So what would you prefer: A game where you have damage mods in highslots and rate of fire modules in lowslots A game where you only have damage mods but they would go into lowslots If you dont support it then Ratatti just simply takes the second option which devalues all of your armor suits. IGÇÖm not a fan of any module that alters gun performance and that includes damage mods. And CCP should have added middle slots from the start anyway; we wouldnGÇÖt have this problem if they had. All races could add damage mods or other performance altering mods without sacrificing their main tank. And if this came to be, I have no problems sacrificing my reps to get RoF. So I would have three damage mods and two RoF mods which would, again, vastly outdo the Caldari as they cannot sacrifice that many high slots but I can sacrifice two low slots. I can always carry a nifty hive to replenish my armour or swap to reactive plates. These modules would also be very popular for heavies. Their base HP is so high that a Gallente or Amarr slapping RoF mods instead of plates would be very popular, especially if they are leashed by a logi. I guess the Caldari could use damage mods instead but thatGÇÖs a harsh price to pay. I would honestly advocate middle slots rather than new modules that have the chance to really make a mess. Or just get rid of the damage mods. Everyone happy then? Not really, there's still the fact that armor out right beats shield's 90% of the time, and also you can't add medium slot's, too late for that. If shield's must sacrifice HP for damage mod's, armor must sacrifice HP for ROF mod's, that's the logic here. Switching to reactive's still mean's you're losing considerably HP, yes heavies would use them too, obviously, but if it's only at 10%, it would only help HMG's, FG's and it's variant's (except burst). 35% charge reduction would help all Caldari weapon's (and SCR but it's getting nerfed anyway, and amarr would also have to sacrifice HP for ROF mod's so that in of itself is a +). Shield's would be able to fire their gun faster, anyone in armor trying to stack ROF mod's loses out in HP vs shield's, allowing shield's vs armor to excel prominently better than armor suit's, even with reactive's, shield's still get more shield and more recharge return, after a caldari rebalance, thing's should balance itself out.

I wouldnGÇÖt call that considerable. And if I were to use RoF mods I would sacrifice my reps, not my HP. I just gave reactives as an option there for me alongside repping hives. And the worst aspect of this module idea is the charge time reduction. If these modules came to be, then we need damage mods with additional range, spare ammo and heatsinks. You cannot start making modules that reduce or negate gunGÇÖs downsides, at least not without offering the same option for everyone. Gallente needs range, Amarr heatsinks and Minmitar more bullets. If you want a RoF mod then fine, make one, but any additional bonuses need to be considered very carefully. "I have never gotten a kill assist by fluxing a wall" - Baal Omniscient

The reasoning behind that is that damage mods dont just simply improve direct hit damage but aswell splash damage for massdrivers etc. So with that in mind i was thinking about a lineup like this: Light weapon rate of fire enhancers Basic= +3% rate of fire and -3% charge time Enhanced= +5% rate of fire and -5% charge time Complex= +7% rate of fire and -7% charge time Heavy weapon rate of fire enhancers Basic= +3% rate of fire and -3% charge time Enhanced= +4% rate of fire and -4% charge time Complex=+5% rate of fire and -5% charge time Sidearm rate of fire enhancers Basic= +4% rate of fire and -4% charge time Enhanced= +6% rate of fire and -6% charge time Complex= +8% rate of fire and -8% charge time The values are exact mirrors to damage mods. The thing which is going to make them a bit weaker then damage mods is that they do not increase the damage per clip and only the DPS. So in a gunfight you will run out of ammo much quicker compared to some one who has damage mods fitted. I suggest that dropsuit fits will become invalid if you try to use damage mods and rate of fire enhancers at the same time. Simply to prevent insta melting fits. Edit: Made the important part about fitting DPS modules easier to read cause people are ignorant. You do realize that -7% to charge is absolutely nothing.

You could aswell use 3 of them and get a significant higher bonus. The value is the same cause it could have the potential to break the forgegun charge time.

The reasoning behind that is that damage mods dont just simply improve direct hit damage but aswell splash damage for massdrivers etc. So with that in mind i was thinking about a lineup like this: Light weapon rate of fire enhancers Basic= +3% rate of fire and -3% charge time Enhanced= +5% rate of fire and -5% charge time Complex= +7% rate of fire and -7% charge time Heavy weapon rate of fire enhancers Basic= +3% rate of fire and -3% charge time Enhanced= +4% rate of fire and -4% charge time Complex=+5% rate of fire and -5% charge time Sidearm rate of fire enhancers Basic= +4% rate of fire and -4% charge time Enhanced= +6% rate of fire and -6% charge time Complex= +8% rate of fire and -8% charge time The values are exact mirrors to damage mods. The thing which is going to make them a bit weaker then damage mods is that they do not increase the damage per clip and only the DPS. So in a gunfight you will run out of ammo much quicker compared to some one who has damage mods fitted. I suggest that dropsuit fits will become invalid if you try to use damage mods and rate of fire enhancers at the same time. Simply to prevent insta melting fits. Edit: Made the important part about fitting DPS modules easier to read cause people are ignorant. You do realize that -7% to charge is absolutely nothing. My sniper would charge in like 3.72 secs instead of 4. WOW! Why would you use ROF on a sniper? Snipers are all about high damage and headhsots. On a tactical sniper however this might work wonders. You could aswell use 3 of them and get a significant higher bonus. The value is the same cause it could have the potential to break the forgegun charge time. Just imagine a forgegun with tripple stacked ROF mods and each reduces the time by 35% (as some one suggested). True, but the armorer would be squishy, unless it's a cal sentinel with 2 low's, then it could be hard to take him down, but the number's I suggested is purely to help low, low slot number suit's, if someone had the urge to stack ROF mod's on armor fit's, 2 or even 3, that's major health loss on them, especially amarr and gallente. Aside from that, I checked it, stacking 3 would in fact give the CSR 1.5 second's of charge, but the SR's in general are clunky (and sniper's do need some love), charge time of the SCR could be increased (their getting nerfed anyway), Gun's like the AR would only benefit from the 10% ROF as that would make it from 800 to 880. As for your suggestion, the number's are fine but make's the module weak and I'm not comfortable with having ROF mod's mimicing damage mod's, they'd be extremely blan and wasteful, only useable on already High ROF weapon's like the AR. One 8% module on an RR would only reduce it down from .45 to .41, stacking 2 would be .38, armor fits have the advantage as then, shield's would have to lose 2 regulators, or on some fit's a kincat and a regulator, to even get the same effect, while 35% would mean we'd only have to sacrifice 1 regulator or kincat. Remember, Armor sacrifices nothing for damage mod's, shield's sacrifice a lot for damage mod's. When there is light, shadow's lurk and fear reign's... Yet by the blade of knight's, mankind, was given hope.

Which in my opinion is more interesting cause you would free up lowslots for more then just ROF mods. It would make more sense and stick to the philosophy of that armor only uses lows and shields should only use highs. Rudimentary Mercs of scrubs and incompetence. You touch my mind, fumbling in Ignorance, incapable of understanding.

Simply to prevent insta melting fits. I counter that comment with this: We should have "insta melting fits" because we ourselves will become glass cannons. Very shiny glass cannons as well, since almost everyone will be able to see us. Really, stacking both leaves you with default armor/shield/ewar/biotic values. As soon as you start killing one or two people, the survivors will turn on you and blap you faster than you blap them. Consider they also have some sort of RoF/+Dmg Gallente User since Jan. 28th, 2013. Touched on every Gallente role since.
