I dunno who decided this, but adding a penalty in shields is NOT the answer.
Everyone who uses shields knows armor is the way to go.

Here's the thing, originally I started as minmatar assault. Then found out that my shields, even with 5 shields extender is not above 600, which is ok.
BUT! I have a delay for shields of 10s. Which laves that suit pretty much non viable.
But now I won't be able to use that much shield (Which I lost in 1 sec anyway) AND will get a penalty for using... lets say 3 shield extenders when shields is pretty much all I can run since I have only two low slots....
Really?
+10s for shield delay? and having about 300 shields?

I'm done with assault for the moment
Will keep using the minmatar logi till it gets nerfed as well.
Stacking armor on that suit leaves me with above 750 and still running at +6.2
Oh, & I get a included armor repairer and I can stack damage mods and still have enough PG/CPU to run some equipment.
Yup. Nerf shields. They are way OP.....

Shields will be crappier than ever before.
Thanks to CCP "master minds"

Now my obscenely long 10s Shield Depleted Recharge Delay will be even longer, since my only option is to stack Complex Extenders. I can't fit Shield Regulators with only two low slots, especially if they are only being used to keep my recharge delay at base levels. So, now my Minmatar assault isn't just slow and underequipped, it will also be squishy and have Sentinel tier regen. I don't see how anyone with moderate intelligence can see this being okay. Yes, it helps the problems with logi and Cal Assault dual tanking, but it completely screws the Minmatar Assault.

Here I was starting to level up Scrambler Pistols in an attempt to salvage my already crap Min Assault, then CCP goes and kicks me back into the hole I have tirelessly tried to climb my way out of. Time to start going full on Gal Scout, that is the only viable option I have atm.
