But of course since they are reducing the skill level requirement to move onto specialized suits from V to III, if you did not request a respec and already started specializing that is 1,865,520 SP you'll never see again (assuming you didn't want the basic frame prototype).
Honestly I dont know why people would waist their SP on Assault Proto when they can get Basic Proto no problem, and Logi proto right under it. Untill they give assault suits a massive boost, they are damn near worthless. |

Untill they give assault suits a massive boost, they are damn near worthless. Well I agree that Assault suits need different fitting layouts than the basics (as do scouts and sentinels), but the skill bonuses are still pretty nice. 25% shield recharge rate plus whatever your racial bonus, it's worth something. Of course before the difference between basic proto and assault proto was 3 million SP, not really worth it. Now it's halved to about 1.5 million SP. That can be worth it for some, but it still needs something to differentiate it.
I personally would actually like to see a second equipment slot for Basic, and bigger damage bonuses or more grandes for assault. That way the Basic suit is more of a jack of all trades, and the specialized suits, are actually specialized. |

Depends if we can get proto specilized suits with only L3 basic suits, or if we need to go L5 basic suits, to get the L5 specilized suits. |

I was actually expecting the cost for the core skills to go down, I wasn't expecting the suits to go down. |
