Armor just slows you down and makes you more likely to die. Shields? What's better...66hp against 600 dps or being able to take down most of a squad with a single duvolle clip? The only downside has been that I'm more vulnerable to snipers, but if you're in a squad a glass cannon build like this actually survives better because things rarely live long enough to shoot at you unless they get lucky.
I do this, too, but it depends on my fit, how the fight is going and what map I'm on. I've skilled into three different suits (advanced only), 3 proto weapons and 3-4 advanced weapons just to make sure I can at least adapt somewhat well. So far I've had the best luck with my survival fittings over my glass cannons. Duvolles still (and always have) wreck me if they get the jump on me first or have backup. |

This exactly...the only thing I don't like about this update is it made my 500 EHP Advanced suits suck. Heck... even my basic suits have over 600 EHP now just to compete.

And the newberries will say "But we need an HP buff, because 2000HP isn't enough because TTK is to high"
They'll say "You mean that DUST was once a tracking strategic shooter?" I have just over 200ehpGǪ you folks are dying as fast as meGǪ. No point in me sinking more sp into hp it would seem.
