If by some measure you think that being in full prototype gear grants you immunity from militia weapons... I'm sorry.

Im not worried about the "immunity" im worried how a starter rifle killed a 1000+ hp heavy. whats the point of specing into the things ccp has created and givin to us, when if we do spec into them to crate a better character we get sliced through with no problem by a starter fit that we so called "upgraded" from.

and side note to you mr. cpm stay on subject with the post or dont bother typing here. i asked how it was possible, and said nothing about how i wanted immunity to militia weapons. So way to go there killer u failed twice in 1 run...

So i was on my make shift scout with 153 over all health and of course it dies alot.... BUT i get on my heavy with 1047 over all health. My hmg needs to be reloaded so i start on the endless process of reloading it, when a redberry pops up. i switch to my advanced submachine gun. Mind you all that no other redberrys were presently around. The redberry starts to shoot before i started... and it killed my 1047 health heavy in 2 SECONDS. And what mysterious weapon of mass destruction killed me that quick? A D@MN MILITIA ASSAULT RIFLE. IT WAS A COMPLETE STARTER FIT SUIT. I would love to have someone try to explain how it is ive dumped so much d@mn SP into my character but no matter what i do the militia is still better then me? whats the point then to strive for proto gear if that much shield and armor is takin away by a starter rifle

You stop spraying your big gun and out from cover pops a vet with a cooked grenade.
1 Militia locus grenade at your feet = you're almost dead before you know what's happening.

Bomb suits are not bomb proof. They're just there to make sure they have something to go bury.

Resists =/= Immune.

Small Arms are what regular non clone infantry use.

We're clone soldiers our weaponry is a league above that crap.

The standard issue Gauss Rifles given to most Caldari Army infantrymen, for example; are not powerful enough to penetrate our shields or armor and lacks smart targeting. Which is why they had to upgraded the technology to a small railgun.

Most of our guns have the safeties turned off, calibur upsized to the point they almost require vehicle mounting, radiation hazards, and deadly amounts of backscatter and pressure waves to kill most regular operators.

The HMG weighs a good 300 lbs loaded and is typically something you would have found on aircraft and more designed to shoot other aircraft down.

Well if we say 90% accuracy, 35 dmg a shot, full auto for 2 secs.

24 +ù 35 = 840 +ù 0.9 = 756

so it is safe to assume he got headshotted yes. However do the same math for 3 secs

37 +ù 35 = 1295 +ù 0.9 = 1165

he still would have fallen less than a second later, therefore I believe when he says 2secs he means 2.8secs, which still too bloody fast!!

Thats right people I just pulled maths on all you a!se's!!

Break it down barny style here.
-1047 total health
-militia assault rifle
-2 seconds to die from it

so what is the point of ever specing into a single thing if all the stuff i do spec into gets tossed aside by a starter fit?

Here is my question, were you in fact in a proto suit?

If so, why do you only have 1047 HP total?

I have 1012 with no modules.

3 Complex armor plates gives me more than 900 armor, putting my over all HP at 1400+.

I laugh at solo MLT AR scrubs the whole time I'm reloading, then proceed to shove my HMG so far up their wazoo, the bullets fly out of their mouth when I pull the trigger.

Oh dear... getting called out.

To reply to your earlier statement about real life weapons: the Dillon minigun fires the same ammo as the m16/m4 family of weapons. The dillon and m16 by virtue of having longer barrels (allowing powder to burn longer) are much better at longer ranges than the m4. Now the same could be said for a longer barreled rail gun. They operate differently but a longer barrel will add more velocity to a projectile.

Ok... Now with out being stupid and thinking your funny comment fits... Everyone go back to page one and look at what i put... does it say anywhere that i am in a proto suit? NO. so STFU and contribute to the post without having a witty retort. Watching the progression of this post, and knowing DEVS listen to you all... No wonder this game is dying out... and that goes for the "funny guy" CPM as well

so why does an AR typically beat it in battle? as an anti aircraft weapon, its range should be very long, instead of expecting a pilot to fly 20 meters from an opposing craft before firing it lol.


the M4/M16 family of rifles fires the 5.56x45 cartridge. the GE/dillon m134 fires the 7.62x51 NATO cartridge, or .308 if you prefer american designations. big difference.
