Ever think of trying to change your play style to counter enemies that are tough to kill?
The shortest depleted shield delay you can get on a shield tanking suit (Cal Logi with 4x Complex Regulators) is 5.1 seconds. Run in, flux, and kill, since they will have max 112 HP armor if they are equipped this way. |

How did you manage to get over 500 armor with 20 HP/sec repair on a Gal Logi? I assume 3 complex armor repairers and 2 complex armor plates, but that gives 478 HP armor total with all skills maxed. Unless you meant over 500 EHP? |

The shortest depleted shield delay you can get on a shield tanking suit (Cal Logi with 4x Complex Regulators) is 5.1 seconds. Run in, flux, and kill, since they will have max 112 HP armor if they are equipped this way. first of all, it is not about shield depleted delay. the problem si the regular shield recharge delay, which does not work how it is supposed to work and increases your shields during a gunfight. it can also be abused to jump behind cover, regain shields and proceed to fight. an armor tanked suit just cannot keep up with the speed and chase him down. and regarding your strategy, it is flawed from the beginning to the end. "run in" with the slower armor tanked suit, throw flux just to see that it is dodged by lolspeed of caldari suits and even if you hit, they just run away and you will never keep up with the armor tanked suits speed. nice strategy, seems to work out well . also your argument is null and void because I should not be forced to counter bugs. also your fit is just bad.
My point with the post was to say "try something different". I wish enemies would just line up in front of me and fall to my AR, but it's not going to happen nor should I expect it to by whining about it on forums.
Shield delay timers start after the first shot, and don't reset unless you are shot after the recharge kicks in. Even if they started on the last shot, your Caldari Assault foe could still duck into cover and expect to start to regen in at most, 5 seconds. If you aren't willing to rush and gun him down then you should expect to be outgunned at a distance or to run out of ammo.
Last time I checked, armor could be repped by repper nanohives or Logis with rep tools. So, if you are in a competent squad, you could also duck into cover and get repped.
Why don't you try making a fast regen armor suit? Low armor, high regen, high DPS, good speed? Again, ADAPT. Use a ScR. Learn to use FLUX GRENADES, which any shield tanker will tell you are the bane of our existence. In short, HTFU.
And BTW, that is obviously not the build I use. It was included as the extreme example of the fastest recharge delay that you can get on any suit. So if you can't flux and kill 112 HP of armor in less than 5 seconds, then you're hopeless. |

Unless you meant over 500 EHP? you got me.. it's actually 17.5 hps
I played with the fitting tool and could get 522 armor and 19.5 HP/sec regen with 2x complex plates, 2x complex reppers, and 1x complex reactive plate.... Might be interesting to try out. |

Not to mention tied to those Wirykomi/Allotek nanohives ;) |
