Simply increasing the weak spot on HAVs considerably will allow dedicated AV and other vehicles to use positioning, speed and skill to heavily change the outcome of each encounter without having an effect on Dropships.
This is just the right thing which both balances the game, and brings more depth to it.
A needed change, and a great one. Congratulations.

Locus Grenade damage progression made Standard and Advanced grenades fairly useless, so we are going to have the same damage for all tiears, with increasing radius per tier. We are also fixing the Packed Locus and buffing the Fused Grenades considerably.
As assume that the sentence "with increasing radius per tier" means that the nades keep their current progressive blast radius, I can say:
This is an excellent change and a needed one. Anyone objecting to this should realise even a slight blast radius buff means more practical damage because of the way damage is calcultated to the center of the blast.

In my expert opinion (lol),
I think the premise of nerfing the scrambler rifles thru it's charge-up shot is wrong. Accordingto empiric experience, the charge is used relatively rarely, and difficult enough to hit. If there can be any data on such a detail, it might prove me wrong.
The scrambler rifles strength lies in: - relatively high damage per shot - ability to rapid fire - all rapid fire shots got to same very small area, with only slight kick upwards.
All those mean that it deals quite a hefty burst of damage in short time. Excellent in close quarters.
If I am not mistaken, it has already been damage to heat -wise better to 'rapid fire only' than to 'charge+rapid fire few'.
Therefore, I predict that these scrambler charged shot nerfs have minimal effect in the scramblers battlefield performance. Ugh. I have spoken.

Objections to the nades aren't about how it was handled by having progression only affect blast radius, our objection is that everyone and their mother who carries even a basic nade will now have two 600 damage thunder nuggets in their pocket. We figured, (when this idea has been asked for before) that they would normalize damage to around the advanced tier, something like 450 damage.
As it stands with the new changes, even a milita nade will do old core damage.
Which is goddamned bonkers if you ask me.
Have you tested the old packed locus nades? On paper, they are beast.
In practice, they often don't even wound.
Blast radius equals to practical damage, I tell you. It's all about damage projection. All having 600 damage should not be a concern.

But am excited to see how the gameplay will change. Because it WILL ABSOLUTELY change......I feel a lot of respecs in the near future. Luckily, for some...we already have it all :) nade spam enjoy that u can throw 20 grenades with adv nanos ..so yeah this is gunna be terrible for a bit until ccp fixes it .... really what they need to do is make it so locus nades cant be resupplied by nanos
Or better yet, make grenade resupply timer longer - like 20s or so. That would rid most of the spam.

Tired of seeing the Rail rifle on Gallente assaults.
Tired? You are tired now as there is VARIATION.
If suits and weapons are tied together by considerable bonuses, THEN you can complain being tired by seeing the same wep over and over again on same suit.

Being squishy and easy to kill is the trade-off for having the best ewar, and fastest suits as well as the ability to be invisible
The worst is if you can know for sure and count on that you are absolutely unscannable.
The balance should be that if both the stealther and scanner both do the extreme sacrifices, the scanner should barely win.
