Right, like all the Amarr LAVs we have driving around, and all the Amarr HAVs shooting everything up, and all the Amarr Dropships flying around, all the Amarr turrets that these things are shooting, and all the Amarr weapons, all 3 of them (Scrambler Rifle, Scrambler Pistol, Laser Rifle)
OMG THE AMARR HAVE EVERYTHING!!!.

Mayhaps we could get a respec? :D

Agreed and it only takes amarr heavy three for all the light weapon users to get into with weapons they are already skilled into. Heavies have to skill 2 weapons plus those two weapons support skills completely ignoring the million or two invested to heavy weapons... seems fair

Edit (will return with math showing the disparity)

2nd edit: also adding the heavy weapon slot wouldn't affect those wanting to use 2x light weapons because you scan fit light weps in heavy slots.

Amarr Commando Bonus: +2% to efficacy of shield and armor modules per level.

They should create a modified light drop suit that has a wing suit built into it. Then people could move over the battlefield faster and it would create more intense fighting.

Can't wait for the commando role either!!!!

Back with math and #s for the skill disparity!

So for a non heavy suit user they will need to get dropsuit command from 1 to 3= 61820 xp (18,650+43,530)
Then to unlock the higher tier suit Amarr heavy to 3 = 273600 (24,880+74,600+174,120)
Total SP needed for medium/light user to get into commandos(they already have light weapons)= 335780

Now a Heavy user should have that already but what dont we have light weapons.
To get a light weapon to V = 621840 (12,440+37,300+87,060+174,120+310,920)
Then to stay competitive proficiency to at least 3 = 341850 (31,100+93,250+217,650)
But wait there are 2 light weapon slots so everything x2. Light weapons x2 = 1243680 (621840+621840) Proficiency x2= 683700 (341850+341850)
Total SP for a heavy to get into commando = 1927380

So is this a heavy suit for heavies? you tell me Even without proficiencies to 3 its 1243680sp

what self respecting assault player, or the overpopular LOGI-ASSAULT guys would drop all of those high and low power slots for a second primary weapon... the assault troopers are generally pretty compotent with SMGs when they HAVE to roll AV, and the logi-bros are probably not rolling out with swarms on their expensive logi suits with no sidearm... not to mention its 500base hp, + a tops of 250? for full tank mods(116? plate, 66 shield x2) so estimated 750 before skills, for a total somewhere in the ballpark of 937 hp, for the same or lower DPS of ANY OTHER CLASS... EVERYONE can fit light weapons... why would you want two unless you cant live without your duvolle assault rifle AND your proto swarms(which i doubt you can fit dual proto with ANY tank)...

So in other words no one wants this suit as it stands CCP

Someone may have caught this already, but the module efficiency skill bonus combined with Standard having no module slots means that Standard-tier Commandos will not be able to use their racial bonus.
Gear not able to use its own racial bonuses is rather high up on my pet-peeve list, as a gear item in such a position will inevitably be left behind by its peers due to the strengths of said bonuses.

when are we going to get the gallente, minmatar, and caldari heavy? i want to see those.

Noooo!! that's gonna make this unfair, you should just keep it to one light weapon. that's just my opinion.

Just to let you guys know, CCP Remnant is a developer in Shanghai and this blog was put out at roughly... oh... 1:30 AM there. So he'd be in bed.

He will be able to check and respond to your feedback when he gets into the office.
