The command suit was suppose to be coming out "soon" a few months ago and i guess its not. The command suit is going to be the buffer of dust and will support more oriented roles. I suspect the command suit will be designed similarly to Logi with lots of equipment slots to fit buff modules on and maybe a Light slot and nade slot or a Light slot and side slot(I would prefer different variation having different layouts). basically a suit gimped on damaging but with an Ok tank with bonuses to using Buff equpment.
I would personally like to see
Squad wide equipment that affects all members of your squad regardless of location such as fit this equipment module and your squad mates get a 5% to something like Scan strength, Signature resolution, hacking speeds(Think of it has all your suits sharing their processing power to speed up hacks by communicating through this module) and other soft buffs things
Area wide equipment that buffs all players in your vicinity by 3% on things like Armor repair rate, shield regen, hardeners, and increase efficiency of certain modules Stat buffs
temporary buff equipment that will buff things like reload speed, sprint speed, stamina regen, removal of stacking penalties temporarly and other things of a more noticeable nature for a short period of time for a 5% bonus.
Buff modules should also be divided into passive and active, where passive is the buffs all ways happening and active is where you have the buff equipment selected. I can see all Squad wide bonus being passive, all Temporary buffs being active and Area buffs being a mix based off whats balanced.
NOTE players should only be able to receive multiples of the same type of buff from different suits. so if there are three Comnd Suits and each of them has a module that boost shield regen by 5% then the combatant would only receive a 5% bonus not a 15% bonus. However if each of those command suits is buffing a different stat then the combatant would get all three 5% added to him.
NOTE I would expect that in return for being similar to a logi but with a better tank the command suit would have one fewer equipment slots than an equivalent logi, So if a logi on the same tier had three then the corresponding command suit would have two. |
