I think this suit will make vehicles powerful once again. And LLAVs OP lmao.
But how will it work? The dropsuit skill will give a bonus to the vehicle? How will its modules affect the vehicle, if they'll affect it at all?
I speculate that the suit will have very low # of modules, no equipment slots, and a sidearm. |

This could be the answer to the whole "underpowered tanks" problem. |

I am looking forward to it. I am guessing there will be a PG bonus. |

Wouldn't make sense. How could someone fit a vehicle if they need to be in a dropsuit to run it?
Most likely it will be activation and cooldown buffs.

It's probably multiple buffs.
Pilot is a specialization.
That means two bonuses: Spec bonus + Racial bonus. Different races will have different bonuses for their pilot suits. Though all pilots will get some sort of bonus. PG seems unlikely because of the fitting issue as noted. I'd prefer they just fixed that core skill for vehicle folks. |

Happy and sad to see this coming. ATM I use my sniper, AR, or SL suit in my free Ikushune LAV. As soon as soon as the LAV takes much damage or I hear a SL I just ditch the thing and fight as infantry. Possibly call down another later.
If dropsuits give much of a bonus to vehicles but aren't very good for combat then I won't be switching roles quite so easily. But it will be more balanced. |

Honestly my guess is that it'll give a % bonus to all modules effectiveness, seems the only way it could be made to balance for all vehicle types, I'd also imagine some kind of racial bonus giving an extra bonus yo a specific area like shields or armour mods. |

Unless pilot suits give back the -20% PG nerfed in vehicles and magically makes the engineering skill actually work, vehicles are still screwed. |

Do you think this will make dropships a little better? If not I will just stick to my logi suit and fly around  |

Pilot suit - Light frame - Lots of PG/CPU - Maybe more slots than the general light frame but with reduced shield/armor - You are basically a bag of meat
It would work with modules that you put on the suit which then enhance the vehicle itself
So the mods for the pilot suit would be exactly like mods for the dropsuit/vehicles but they would increase the vehicles shield/armor/speed/damage/resistances/shield recharge rate/repper rate etc
They would have stacking penalties just like all mods
I can also see each pilot suit having a bonus to its racial vehicle so Caldari Pilot suit bonus is to shields and missiles and will only work for the Caldari vehicles, you cannot wear a Caldari pilot suit and get the bonuses from the suit in a Gallente HAV for example |

I would like to see pilot suits, if only to balance things up on the vehicle end, I don't see why a HAV should have a full combat capable pilot inside he should be vurnable if he needs to ditch |
