So, how about that (insert fine forum wine here)?
What we have today is a fine selection of ARs are OP, Nerf da Flaylocks, Strafing is derp, buff mah Tank, MURDATAXIZ, and a few other things. I have an idea to assist with one of them.
I'm sure you EVE players out there remember the power of the role bonus on ships built for a purpose. Tier 3 Battlecruisers and their Large Turret role bonus, or CovOps ships with their Cloak bonuses, or Logistics ships with their preferred remote reppers? We need these bonuses, plain and simple.
People whine that everyone strafes too fast? Kinetic Catalyzers now cost 4 times their current fitting, but Scouts get a role bonus to trim that down to how it is now.
Give Assault suits a role bonus for their racial tank and people will move from the 'BattleLogi' to the Assault faster than you can say 'All Proto Shield Extenders.'
Give all Logi a Role Bonus for reppers to prevent Assault squads from running without a medic player.
Give the Racial Logis a role bonus to some kind of module/equip that fits with their current role, like a role bonus to hacking mods for MinnyLogi to complement their innate hacking boost.
I'm sure you fellows can think of more, have at it. What can the Role Bonus do for you? |

Welp, I do spam this link a whole lot, but I do think these racial bonus changes would make roles much better specialized than what we have now. |

You do indeed, but this isn't about racial bonuses. This is about ROLE BONUSES, the huge reductions in fitting cost or huge boosts in module effectiveness that make you fly a Scimitar instead of a LogiRohk or a Tornado instead of a Hurricane. They are more focused to the role of the class as a whole instead of the individual races, and most importantly is MUCH more gamechanging than the suit bonus and doesn't scale with level. |

Once the racial bonuses on assaults, heavies and scouts get adjusted or buffed, I'd like to see the overall bonus system evolved into T-2, T-3, or faction suit specializations like a medic centered logi build with nanohive capacity, injector, and repair tool bonuses, scouts with EWAR options like jamming, offensive oriented heavies and command assaults that give bonuses to squad members within proximity. Let's put the RPG in MMORPG already. |

But the thing is the class bonuses are essentially role bonuses. I seriously don't see CCP making large overhauls by adding more bonuses to the racial and class bonuses we already receive, so I think the only way to get these class specializing bonuses is to redo the system that is already in place, hence my shameless plugs. |

Yes, but the main difference is that the Role Bonus is inherent in the suit nomatter the level, and this gives it it's role in combat. A Racial Bonus is affected by the Racial 'whatever' skill, and exemplifies the racial characteristics the ship obtains from it's parents. |
