As long as you are satisfied with not making any money .... Assault , Logi ,even the nerfed tanks will always have the highest WP contributions and making that dough . Heavies ....sent to the kiddie table with the Dropship pilots.
Being moved to a defensive role is all well and good but until I get WP's for soaking up bullets it really doesn't pay the bills. |

Than spec something else if you want WP, this isn't a charity. Oh you play as a heavy here is some free WPs,
Now as for making money, I do it with every class except tanks. Heavies are cheap compared to tanks so maybe you should learn how to not die or have a logi partner [/quote]
Maybe it changes in Uprising but running heavy is hardly cheap....
Not dying isn't the problem . It's pure logic. If WP determines my payout yet I only get WP's for killing things then affecting my ability to kill things in turn effects my payout. If I'm stuck guarding a point and sure I can drive people away from the point but unless I kill each and every one ... I'm not being paid . Meanwhile the Logi keeping me up is being paid hand and foot from resupplies,revives, and healing along with killing , not that I begrudge him of that cause I love my logi bros .
Meanwhile Assaults being more mobile are able to go out and fight more and kill more . On top of that they also are able to get revives, or resupply points depending on what they are carrying .
The point is the Logi and Assault would far outpace the heavy in WP production so the heavy would always end up with the smaller piece of the pie . That's my point . If I'm to be forced into a guard role then pay me for guarding . Suppression WPs would do wonders. |

Seems CCP has to ween you guys off your point-n-click cannons so you can do what assault players end up having to do now (yup... AV).
I think it's a pretty big *hint* *hint* from CCP, it's only a few steps away from them saying "Hey fatties, get off your lazy HMG butts and start doing AV!"
Also patch notes say that heavy suits will cost the same as assault suits with same meta. So CCP listened to you guys there.
But then they nerfed all the tanks making them run away leaving me with no prey ... |

Mr Zitro wrote: Again this is all about play style, can I keep up with war points in pubs yes I can get top 3-5. Can I keep up with other top slayer like reg proto, etc? No but can I make more of an impact by defending key areas! That's the price of a heavy and if you play to your strengths you can be efficient.
So can I ......in this build . The question is will I be able to do the same doing way less damage while people are sprint strafing away from me . What good is getting WP's for killing when you are easily avoided ?
