i was wondering on some feedback as to how i could make the mim suits work. i HATE the suits, they are weak and have almost no shielding what so ever. i currently run-
8k ISK cost
-assault m-1 suit -basic AR -basic sub MG -basic AV grenades -2 Milita Shields -Milita Light damage mod -Milita armor plating -basic nanohives
32k ISK cost
-ADV M-1 suit -gek AR -basic sub MG -ADV AV grenades -2 ADV shields -ADV light damage mod -2 ADV armour plating -ADV Nanohives
I have about 230 shields and 250 armour on my cheap setup and 252 shields and 350 armour on my more costly setup, my toon gets torn up in seconds by most AR's and HMG's. hopping helps but once my stamina is gone, I mine as well drop to my knees and say please.
ANY tips to improve my survivability would be coolbeans.
You have just slightly under my Amarr Assault, however you have to remember at racial level you are getting a bonus to Side Arm Magazine Cap making the use of Flay Lock and SMG very good, especialy since the two guns are already very good now.
I mean I use the Syndicate SMG, basic SMG, and it tears through people, tack the up and coming Combat Rifle on and you have a fast firing burst mid range gun with some short range goodies, and the capacity to speed tank the hell out of your suit.
Knowing that make like All Matari do, and never run for the frontlines, its not in your racial combat MO, you need to flank, get high above your enemies, behind them, etc where you can use cooked greandes, another racial item of yours, the CR, and the SMG to finish them off. |

This. (Wow, a tactically trained Amarr - first time for everything... )
(( In RP Terms))
I have spent the whole of my life studying war fare, this does not simply include my own methods of warfare, but those of every fighting force this cluster has, specifically the Minmatar due to the nature of our current relationship.
I cannot help you reply to your current jab, but the Amarrian militaries are by far more disciplined and better trained than the Minmatar, even should we not be so adaptable in the field. |

The speed is what makes it really dangerous.
I actively scorn shield tankers as an Amarrian, so those to me are negligible, you either get Tank, Recharge, or damages or a little bit of all of them.
I get Tank and Damage, but no recharge. |

I've seen people using sniper rifles and swarm launchers as their secondary weapon. Yeah I get that, I'm just point out how potent the speed tanking element is, that's what normally kills my tanks, the fact that the good MinAssaults simply dodge through my shots even when I have a clear bead on them. |

Forgetting the vastly superior Scrambler Pistol...
Oh don't I know it but the ScR is not as solidly reliable as the SMG when it comes to the CQC fight you will inevitably see them engage you in. |
