I have a Heavy weapon speed skill tape. Its listed first on the tape +12


What i'm wondering is that we don't have heavy weapon speed, we have weapon specific speed like Flamethrower, will it do me any good to use it?

Nope, atm its worthless. stick it in a pack in your house and hope the devs get around to fixing it this year.

yep, they do nothing. for some reason, all the heavy weapons have their own speed mods.

A brief history of commando skill mods...


In the beginning, God created the comando and gave unto him the skills Heavy Weapon Speed and Heavy Weapon Accuracy with which to smite his opponents.


Ok, I can't keep this up... I'll start trying to make sense


During beta the commando's had 2 skills which covered all their heavy weapons, these were obviously Heavy Weapon Speed and Accuracy. The skill attachments that you see in game at the moment were created to enhance those skills.


However, just pre-launch the commando skills were changed and our then heavy weapons were broken down into flamethrower, HAR, RL and HPBC, but the skill mods you see in armor and clothing attachments were never changed to reflect this.


Thats the commando definition of broken.... enhancements to skills that have not existed for the better part of a year.


As for what to do with them... personally I'm hoarding mine and buying up any reasonably priced ones I can find, in the hope that the upcoming combat rebalance will see these being fixed in one form or another and I'll then be able to use them


Hope that answers your question

Thank you for the solid explanation, now what to do with all my attachments haha. not sure like you said, if i should hoard them or dump em for cash, i mean they are still dropping, i get them all the time, i was about to "assemble" a suit of armor or two with all the attachments ive found recently after making commando. Any Suggestions, i got a ton of pistol ones, ton of defense. is there anything else i should avoid at the moment that is bugged? i appreicate the help



I am a Master Commando, Pistoleer 3/0/3/0, Medic 1/0/3/0 and smuggler 0/0/3/0 i think haha i forget, something like that

To my (limited) knowledge the defense and pistol attachments still work fine, so theres nothing to stop you using any of those in a set of clothing or armor.


If you dont want any of the Heavy Weapon attachments, try selling them, I'm sure someone out there would be willing to buy them (as an example, an auction on my home server - Shadowfire - just saw a Heavy Weapon Speed +5 clothing attachment go for around 250k).
