How should i fit it?

Specced it to ADV today, and boy does it feel like crap. Extremley bad recharge delay. Pretty clunky. Feels vulnerable.
Purpose for the suit is a mobile sniper that does not operate in the redline,


Minimum requirement Tactical Sniper + Rail Rifle.

Also, if you use protofits, make sure you have caldari commando set to ADV in the skill tree. So far, it is not a suit i will take to proto anytime soon.

thanks

"Calmando have a lot of drawbacks, big hitboxes, no grenades, and crappy crappy ewar"
That's literally every other Commandos drawback as well.

700 shield is great for close quarters against cr's...

as long as noboby fluxes you :(

i usually fit all damge mods, then watever armour i can fit so as not to get 1 shotted while counter sniping.

i prefer vanilla rail and just dont let them anywhere near u.
hipfire works good for squishy scouts

I use a extender, recharger, and damage mod, with a shield regulator. An assault rail rifle and a vanilla rail rifle. I use it more I push the enemy back and in open fields.

you guna be on after dt?

Not really, you can make up for the deficiencies other commandos.


Min you can use its mobility and AV to devastating effect. Amarr is a pure brick and the Gallente are brusisers + rep masters.

Where the Caldari commando falters is its has the recharge rate of the Amarr Assult (20 hp), and the recharge Delay of the Amarr logi(6 seconds). Depeleted its 8 seconds. Thats really bad for a shield suit. Where it ought to be very strong, witha good recharge rate at least, it turns out to be as bad at shields as the amarr suits.

Its not very mobile, not a brick, terrible shield reps, very long delays, and thats before i worry about hitpoints and weapons.

I'm not one for shield QQ, I have the cal assault, sentinel and logis, and they work just fine. I maintain that the cal sentinel is the best solo heavy, the cal assault would be FOTM if the Rail Rifle wasn't so useful in the gallente assault, and the logi bonus needs some work but the suit its self isn't bad at all.

But man, this suit has me stumped. All the talk about scrambler rifles, you would think caldari players woud QQ alot more about this.

Yes but most of them have the advantage of actually having somewhat functioning weapons. The sniper rifle is not a weapon that 'functions' in almost any sense of the word, unless you're several hundred meters back from a fight at which point you're no longer a functioning teammate.

Std rail rifles recieved a pretty massive nerf to 'cqc' a while back because they were overperforming - it's hard to play them at standoff range without a functioning 'sidearm'. ARR's while nice still have a number of issues at shorter ranges especially when on a suit that is currently so ****ing bad in its base statistics as the calmando.

An ammando or galmando benefits greatly from being an armor tanked suit with a relatively high base hp and the ability to fit multiples of the the single best module in the game (complex armor repairer) and get up to ~30hp/second which allows for extremely fast turnarounds and brawling/skirmishing in armor even when taking incidental damage. Y'know what happens to shields when they take incidental damage? their repair stops entirely and the entirety of the delay needs to be waited out, turning that already long delay and slow recharge into something that takes the left side of forever, especially because the inhibition value is literally something that does not function - the vast majority of weapons can still shut down shield recharge at ~170-180m with a single bullet

So yeah, bad weapon options, bad/extremely underpowered tanking style, bad fitting, bad hit boxes, bad ewar and no grenades = worst of the 'bad' suits = noncompetitive.
