I guess I can see that rapid switching vs reloading would be a key reason? Especially if you a e head spammer? One example: Open with ScR charge shot. Switch to ASCR. Switch back to ScR and finish target with a volley. Both if these weapons hit incredibly hard. They are theoretically balanced by periods of cooldowns following bursts of high damage. Alternating between two overrides the cool down. Works especially well with AM Commando (due to damage bonus).
Exactly
Though I find Charge shot/Switch AScRGǪ only need to switch back for cool downs if I have engaged three people. Or 2 Armour Heavies.
The amount of ammo in clip makes it hard to get confused as to which gun is out.

Weapon switching does help mitigate the scrambler drawbacks, but not completely. Switching weapons still takes time.
On an assault switching from Scr to SMG or BP has a similar effect, though not as good at range.
As someone with Lvl 5 Am Commando (though not much experience) and Am Assault, whilst I agree the AScr absolutely destroys on the Commando, there's no real reason to use the Commando over the Assault unless you carry a swarm launcher.
Yes the swarms won't be as powerful as on a Min Commando, but the AScr is awesome on it. Having only one AI weapon makes the overheat a bit of a problem, but it has such high dps, damage per mag, and reload speed. It's a superior weapon to the combat rifle to pair with a swarm launcher, in my opinion.
This I why I'd love it if Rattati implemented the feedback proposal I've seen, where we have swarm launcher variants for each damage type. All commandos would then have a swarm bonus to their damage type swarms. I've never liked that Min commandos get a more useful damage bonus than other commandos. Also, the laser rifle is just better on the Assault. |

I've actually been wondering about this. Since you overheat faster on the Commando, does that also been that you reach your max damage potential faster too? If that was true, then I suppose the Amarr Assault's bonus could also be seen as a drawback.

If that was true, then I suppose the Amarr Assault's bonus could also be seen as a drawback.
Laser damage increases over time, not heat. So the assault allows the laser to build up more damage, and fire for longer at higher damage.
At least this is what I've heard, and appears to be the case in game.
From my attempts to use both, I've had more success with the assault. I need the extra time at high damage to get the kills.
With the commando, it's nice to fire twice per mag (the assault must be reloaded after each beam), and the reload speed is great, but I just can't do enough damage without preheating, and don't have time to get kills before overheat.
Perhaps it would be different if I was a better shot, but I just find the laser assault to be superior. Breach smgs are so OP it doesn't even matter too much that I'm limited to a sidearm for close combat.
The laser could do with a buff in my opinion. |

If you have bad aim you shouldn't even be an Amarr Commando.

I like it! Well, most of it. It's much more "minimally invasive" than your proposals tend to be and I think that works to its favor. Simple is good.
Some comments:
* Add to Active Scanners cloak's protracted equip/unequip delay
This was introduced to address the "shooting while invisible" issues that couldn't be addressed directly through animation changes and as such is totally out of place for the active scanner. It's already a needlessly frustrating mechanic, no need to go adding it to things that don't require it for the sake of balance. Scanners can be balanced in ways that don't make people want to smash their controllers.
* Restore Logi base Scan Range to former values
Not entirely sure what this means for the logis but I suspect it's a good thing so =ƒæî
* Change the 3-ring system to a 2-ring system: short range and long range passives
I think 3 rings is crucial to making the falloff system feel like an actual falloff system and not just two types of passive scans again. That being said, I do think that the ultra-powerful short range scans need to go. The ONLY stated reason for their addition was because it "didn't seem realistic" that somebody could stand behind your dropsuit completely undetected, but such attempts at realism/logic have no place in a game like this, ESPECIALLY when they result in the unjust nerfing of several already mediocre elements (range extenders and nova knives). The close ring serves zero positive gameplay purpose and should therefore be eliminated.
I would suggest that instead of two rings, we keep the three rings, but push them out and move the increments closer together. Today's medium should act as the new short, today's long should remain the same, and the new medium should be a ring in between those two.
