Take an Amarr Heavy Frame ak.0, which is the basic proto Heavy suit and cheap as hell to spec into. With Core Armor and Shielding 5, you've naturally got 1000 base HP. Stick some Complex Damage Mods in the highs and Armor Repair Units with maybe one Armor Plate on there, and it is impossible for another sniper to OHKO you, even with another Thale to the head after all damage modifiers. You can fully repair armor in 50-60 seconds. Equip a SMG for personal defense.
Unless your whole team is redlined, the only way to kill you is an Orbital. A suicidal LAV can break through the line but will probably die before it can kill you if you place yourself right. If you get redlined, just retreat behind something and try to avoid a likely OB area. Again, unless an OB drops right on your head, you're not going to die. |

So many try that theory with me but sadly for you I'll kill you before you get away even if it ain't a one shot it'll only take me 2 maybe 3 if I don't shoot you in the head Agreed. By the time you react I've reloaded.
I saw a Heavy try this tactic, must have good timing, because I didn't see anyone double tap him. I've seen a few get shot and just retreat, but maybe they got shot twice by weaker rifles? |

Well, with three complex plates you would die on the third headshot against a proto Sniper with 4 complex mods and proficiency 5. Still, after doing some math, yeah, it's a worse tactic than I thought. |
