What weapons are hybrid?

So far the best dropsuit for my taste is the Caldari logibro. I'll be using a scrambler rifle so no point in speccing into assault because the weapon isn't hybrid. Stack shields and be a medic. If only it wasn't yellow....

Shotguns, Plasma Cannon

750 EHP with 5 shield extenders and level 5 passive skills + suit bonus. Solaire would be proud young SunBro.

Shotgun is Blaster, Plasma Cannon isn't a hybrid, it's an energy weapon. High shield damage, low armour.

Amarr Assault
Assault suit bonus: +5% dropsuit shield recharge rate / level
Amarr Assault: 5% reduction to laser weaponry heat buildup / level

Gallente Assault
assault suit bonus: +5% dropsuit shield recharge rate / level
Gallente Assault bonus: 5% reduction to hybrid weaponary PG/CPU usage / level

Do we only get these bonuses whilst in the suit?

plasma cannon is a hybrid weapon

first it is gallente technology and gallente use hybrid weapons.
second the description of the weapon pretty much describes a hybrid weapon (plasma carried by energy)
and third hybrid weapons are energy weapons too, the energy is just used differently

25% less "weapon feedback damage" which probably only covers self-inflicted damage. Might only cover overheat damage, making HMGs and Laser Rifles great for Heavies.

Question about this. Does this apply to my own armor repairer? Or only to repping other people? And does it apply to a triage nanohive?

I was wondering if the CPM could ask CCP to actually give us some feedback on skills after the relase of uprising.

For example:

Logi +1 hp to dropsuit means that you get +1 hp per second back per level of the skill you have in that suit to your armour so that it functions like an in built armour repper.

Or Logi +1hp to dropsuit means per level of skill you repair damage to your teams suits with repair equipment (nano hives/armour tools) this bonus applies to you if your standing in your nano hive.

Or 5 percent to repair modules means for every repair module you have an extra 25 percent is added to their effenciy for example a proto repair module will give you 1.25 hp a second for a total of 6.25 hps a second. (or whatever the correct math is).

If we have this type of details it will make it much easier to see what we are getting before we spend millions of sp for various suits/weapons/vehicles etc.

I would ask CPM if they could put this forward for us.

Bolded part makes no sense on amarr and gallente suits.
CCP is being extremely lazy.

There are two core "types" of hybrid weapon.

Railguns use a physical projectile, but accelerate it to the point that it superheats and effectively acts as a midpoint between energy and kinetic damage.

Blasters use plasma, but contain it so densely it acts somewhat like a physical projectile as well as being plasma, which is more energy-based.

The description of Blaster technology emphasises the impression that "Plasma" means "energy".

Plasma Cannon is described using similar terminology to Blasters, but with a less densely-contained plasma projectile, making it logical to assume it's an energy weapon. I've seen a clip where a Plasma Cannon was shown dealing massive damage to a Caldari HAV, and another where a Gallente LAV survived a Plasma Cannon hit with armour to spare. While not conclusive, it definitely suggests this.

Also, Heavy AV is the Forge Gun, a hybrid weapon with high damage against both armour and shields. The current Light AV option is armour-focused. Having a shield-focused energy weapon as a counterpoint makes sense from a balance perspective.

doenst the forge gun have a slight bonus against shield (like 10%) and a slight penalty against armor?

The reduction to weapon feedback damage, is useless with an HMG, because it doesn't cause damage when it overheats. Unless they changed the dynamic on that too...
