Marlin Kirby KILL-EM-QUICK RISE of LEGION 23	Posted - 2013.08.10 20:56:00 - [1] - Quote I like the idea, but I don't think armor should get a buff until there are ARs that can punch armor. After all, the two ARs we have now are shield busters.

If you need an AR use your freaking grenades. They do something like 150% right now. Back to OP. Im thinking resistance plates. But more than 25%. Maybe proto is around 35%. Or plates need a numbers buff Maybe I have 23 likes because I have less than 100 posts on this forum.

Anyone that requests something to make it easier to kill armor dropsuits is obviously a troll or noob. Which are you? "Let's cop out the new guy!" Notice I said buff armor when we get anti-armor rifles? I want a level playing field. Armor is dumb right now, but buffing it without the proper counter is bad design.
Marlin Kirby KILL-EM-QUICK RISE of LEGION 23	Posted - 2013.08.11 14:42:00 - [4] - Quote <---------Point (Everyone's head) Right now, AV sort of has the opposite problem of having only anti-armor weapons. Forge, swarms, and AV grenades. We have flux grenades opposed to AV grenades, but we don't have anti-shield heavy weapon for shields. We have the plasma cannon opposed to swarms, but that weapon is a joke. Heavies have anti-armor weapon (HMG) for personnel, but they don't an anti-shield weapon for personnel that only they can use. There's no mass driver that shoots plasma instead of grenades. See where I'm getting at now? Armor tanking (and the plasma cannon) needs a serious buff, but I want to be able to counter it with a Caldari or Mimitar AR that's weak against shields, but strong against armor. It doesn't necessarily need to be automatic.

Besides ARs still do pretty good damage to armour - it's not like it reduces to 50% or something. It's 90% and 80% for scrambler rifles. And 10% is quite a bit considering complex damage mods do that much. I do notice I use much more ammo against Gallente suits than Caldari. None of the anti-armor weapons we have now are mid range. They're all short besides the sniper.
Marlin Kirby KILL-EM-QUICK RISE of LEGION 24	Posted - 2013.08.12 04:53:00 - [6] - Quote MD are only mid range if you have the high ground since the weapon arcs. It kind of hard to speed tank when I only have 3 low slots, but you're right Caldari are naturally faster with no armor plates.

You realise that nearly all anti armor weapons are area of effect weapons? So its even easier to kill armor. And there are alsready anti armor rifles(smg and hmg)... Did you see my post half asking for a plasma MD? And HMG are only held by heavies, and SMGs are only short range.
