It is said that this dropsuit needs better survivability.

The bonus to module efficacy is fine (and it should indicate that it works specifically to shield and armor enlargers), it won't be bad to increase that bonus to 5%, instead of 2%, having into account that a Commando soldier has to endure heavy fire. To counter the slower movement speed: Default auto-repairing abilities. That would be a not too over-powered solution, to make Commando a more viable role in battle.

West Warder is delusional

Commandos are not ''harder'' than ANY Medium frame.

At proto level there is not a SINGLE Mid Frame with less than 600 - 750 HP unless its a specified type of load out say stealth etc...

Commandos LACK slots, there by the only low powered one will be obviously used for a Armor repairer.

The 2 high slots, IF USED FOR 2 Cx Shield extenders it would end up being:
66 x [1.25 (Shield ext bonus per level) + 1.25 (''new commando bonus'' as perWest)] = 99 + shields

99 x 2 = 198

The commando has 250 armor and shields , at proto passive bonus they end up having 625 total.

625 + 198 = 823 total HP (and i dont even think he can fit in 2 ADV Light weapons LOL)

So we have a Proto Commando with 823 HP!
sturdy enough?

My Alt character i amarr Assault:
At passive lv 5 it has a total of 450 HP
+3 complex shield extenders (82.5 each) = 247.5
+1 Enhanced armor plate ( 108 {ty to armor plate bonus per level}) = 108
TOTAL: 805.75

At best ,Commando suits are AS tough as Assault suits, but with Much less speed, CPU/PG, Module customization, an equipment slot , radar performance, stamina performance...etc...

No. they need serious buff. a LOT more CPU/Pg to be able to use the few slots they have,DECREASE their Scan Profile a LOT but leave their crappy scan profile And increase un-upgraded armor and shield to 300 each....(And of course, make them cheaper by at least 15-20k...)

This would make Commandos viable.... IMO that is.

I dont have access to my ps3 right now so i cant really do the math on it but a SP comparison would be great since just to get to commando you have to skill into heavy first. Personally i think its ok to compare to other fittings but i think more important is to compair things based on how many sp's it would cost to get such fittings.
