But really, I enjoyed how people feared heavies. Heavies were a psychological unit at one point. If an assault guy was in the same room with a heavy, he'd be running away. Nowadays, I hear stories of how people take down heavies with 4 shots of a scrambler rifle, 10 shots of a Duvoulle and even 1 grenade through all with full health. They don't need to do a ton of damage but, come on. Give them some durability. What really through me over the edge is when LAV's killed me in one fell swoop when I have literally equal amount of health as the LAV. They made that a bit better thank god. But I find the perfect suit to have is the basic suit with 2 complex heavy damage modifiers, 2 kinetic catalyzers and 1 complex armor plating. I add the catalyzers because most of the maps are 70& open ground. Even then I barely hold up. Which, I know I must but most of the blame on me for doing bad. The thing about heavies though, is that they were supposed to be godlike at close quarters. They have a fricken mini-gun firing at you at close range, AND they were supposed to take alot of damage. Time was, my biggest threats were snipers and open ground. You catch a heavy in the open then he is pretty much dead meat. Snipers don't even have to catch you on open ground, get 3 or 4 consecutive shots in (with proto sniper on proto heavy) and he is dead. Or even 2 headshots then he is dead. When I finally got proto fittings in beta, is when I started to compete like a heavy should. It should be a tanking unit that is difficult to take down, It is designed to push through the enemy line. That is my opinion on the heavy. This life is full of random death and heaps of grief and shame So few are soothed by accident, you need someone to blame
