Noticed the dropsuit bonuses for leveling into specific suits have bonuses that aid generally every role, but nothing very practical for snipers.
It would seem that the Gallente Assault and Logistics bonuses are the only ones that snipers can get any real benefit from.
Are there any plans to introduce dropsuits that have bonuses that snipers can mainly benefit from? |

Technically the "hybrid reload speed" should benefit sniper rifles, since they're hybrid weapons. |

i would assume the Caldari Scout suit when it comes about will have a good, strong bonus to rail tech, since the sniper rifle we all know and loathes is currently Caldari tech. think about that a bit, since we have yet to get the last 2 racial light set ups, and the 3 heavy sets |

Yes, it would but is that something every sniper is getting all giggity about? The only worthwhile bonus is the gallente assault role reduction to hybrid weapons. It's sad that heavies/scouts kinda got shafted this build but yet no one complains about that?
All we see is complaints about how the caladri logi suit is op or how powerful the tac was. |

I've mentioned it elsewhere:
No suit has a specific damage bonus other than the minmatar Scout for Nova knives/melee. Thus, the primary determiner for Sniper damage is high slots for Light damage mods.
So the best snipers are Caldari Logistics and Minmatar Assaults, both weighing in at 5 slots at the prototype level for around a 50% boost to damage output (sacrificing defense for BANG) |

I also want Snipers, or more specifically just longer distance Light Weapons, to feel the love. I might take a stab at designing a Ranger role and see how people respond. |

Ok so I am going to ask the question. What kind of bonuses are you wanting on your sniper dropsuit? |

Not sure yet, but I'm thinking something along the lines of damage boosts, profile reduction, or ammo capacity increase. I'll post my designs separately and link them here when I'm done. I'd also want to play around with the slots it'd have access to, but any benefits of the suit would have to kill its eHP, so not to make it playable a way it shouldn't be... such as Logissault. |
