Even though it has many options compare to all others Dropsuits, my advice would be to work on your Advance Dropsuit and then your Dropsuit Upgrades.
The PROTO Dropsuit will not make you invincible. :)
Also remember to get a PROTO Dropsuit you need to reach (the 696'...k SP) Level 4 that will give you absolutely nothing, and then the whopping 1'245'... SP (or so) level 5.
With almost 2M SP you can level-up allot of Dropsuit Upgrades, that will help you as much as a PROTO.
Hope this helps someone making the right decision, since here in DUST once you make a decision, you have to LIVE with it!
So you mean to say it didn't seem like a great idea to get +25% to shield, then +25% to armor, then +25% to efficacy of modules for both, then +25% to CPU and PG upgrades, then +25% to hacking speed?
You can't level up much of the dropsuit upgrades at all. You get armor upgrades, core upgrades, and shield upgrades. Compared to the max of +25% for the modules themselves, that's nothing. Plating, repair systems, extension, recharging and regulation are all 3x skills, each requiring 932,760 SP to max out. Engineering and electronics are 5x, each requiring 1,554,600 to max out. You can't get jack with 2mil SP, really. |

Lol? Takes around 10mil to fill out the important core upgrades. |

You have no idea the ramifications of a CCP Dev saying they're not going to skill into vehicles. That really explains a lot. |

Actually IWS and CCP Foxfour are taking a more Eve approach to the game. It probably will allow for a braoder experience. Rather than specializing so that they can get a single really powerful combination that would be marginally useful to use in battle and play over and over, they are actually widening the kinds of experience that they can have. Having a wide range of ADV tier goods means that it will help you adapt in battle to whatever is necesary. There isn't a right way to do your skills. There are ways that are more efficient.
But pilot's problem with IWS is that he's saying he's a good pilot, when he runs militia gear on a Sica. That means less than nothing to us. |

At least he keeps involved in goings-on pertaining to vehicles. |

You... don't even have an argument. |

You have no idea the ramifications of a CCP Dev saying they're not going to skill into vehicles. That really explains a lot. Why? I don't balance vehicle stats, I don't do art for them, I don't do any design for them whatsoever. I am much more interested in making sure I am involved with, or as close to as possible, the areas of the game that I and the rest of my team do work on. The game is way too big to know everything, skill into everything, do everything, and just understand it all. So yes, I could go and learn things I do not work on or I could instead spend that time trying to make sure I have at least a small understanding of what is going on with what I do work on. :) You have to understand that CoD here is on a "Remove AV from the game" crusade and anything that even seems like its anti-vehicle, like a dev saying he doesn't spec into vehicles, becomes a target for his QQ.
Where did I say I wanted AV removed? |

How may i ask would you know such a thing?
I rarely see you posting anything. That counts as being involved. Merely lurking and reading, doesn't get you involved. You read, but don't let others know how you feel about things. People don't like me because I'm strongly opinionated. |

Yanno, the funny thing about it is that all the complaining about not having 'proto' vehicles stems from an symbol in the top left corner of an icon.
Infantry = Tier based
Vehicles = Role based
You still get bonuses and the like from the skills. Hell, a lot of the skills (vehicle electronics for example) are FAR easier to get to level 5 than the infantry variants and being as there is no 'proficiency' skills there are a number of benefits to going Turret Operation. Hybrid Turret Operation unlocks -all- variants at the same time, access to both Blasters and Railguns with one skill and the best part is you don't have to go Proficiency to get a damage increase from them.
Even then you can access the best armor plating (and similar modules) at level 3 instead of 5.
Suffice to say, Vehicles cost more ISK but less SP in the stem of things. I mean, think about this for a second - there are Prototype turrets and there are complaints about the vehicle not having a stupid symbol. If Marauders were still around, no-one would say that Tanks are under-powered because they were unstoppable one man killing machines, hence why they were removed.[/quote]
What's the SP requirement for Wiyrkomis? |
