On Mobile, with RED Grade 10 Titan IDS Gloves buffed with maxed-out Nimble, Race Modded becomes pretty much usless at around 15 Fast Reload. Race Modded itself becomes *completely* useless (i.e. it has no effect on the gun whatsoever no matter how many ticks you add) at 25 Fast Reload + Nimble Titans.

Case in point: my Assault character used to have 25 FR and 10 Nimble Titans. He also has a Standard 10*** Hornet, a RED 8*** Hornet, and a RED 8*** Shockfield (all acquired and augmented prior to the reload nerf on Mobile). The 10*** Hornet is Race Modded and had a Reload Time of 0.5s seconds; the RED 8*** Hornet is *NOT* Race Modded but *ALSO* had a reload time of 0.5s seconds. Likewise, the RED 8*** Shockfield had a Reload Time of 0.4s *WITH* Race Modded (<-- this is the important part to remember moving forward). So basically, none of those weapons can be reloaded any faster than 0.5s, 0.5s, and 0.4s respectively (i.e. 20% of their original reload time).

Now, in light of the Reload nerf, I re-spec'd my Assault's Skills (enjoy the $3.00, NK) and managed to drop Fast Reload down to 14 (keeping the 10 Nimble Titans equipped, of course) by adding 1 Skill Point at a time and checking the Reload Speed on those 3 weapons after each point. At 14 Points, the two Hornets were both at 0.6s reload (a negligible 0.1s difference from before), and the Shockfield still had a Reload Time of 0.4s since the lower Fast Reload Skill resulted in a Race Modded value of -0.09 total at Grade 8.

So in other words: think in the long-term for your character, do yourself a favor and don't bother with Race Modded on any weapon that you can see yourself using late-game if you're going to have a decent amount of points to spend on Fast Reload. That 0.09 difference on the Shockfield above is essentially useless, and I would have spent it on Pinpoint or Adaptive or *ANYTHING ELSE* besides Race Modded if I had known that the Reload nerf was in the offing. Race Modded might be useful early on for lower-level characters or later on for ones whose Skill Points are tied up in things aside from Fast Reload (like Medics), but I wouldn't bother with it at all for Assaults or Heavies if you've got moderate FR and good Titans.

Hope that helps! :-D
