TechMechMeds Swamp Marines Kleenex Inc. 1719	Posted - 2013.12.12 16:11:00 - [1] - Quote Equip 3 complex damage mods and I promise you that you will wreck most people with little to no effort. This is the key to dominating , it really is that simple I promise you and get yourself some core locus grenades, these are your icing on the cake. And there you have it, the people you may think are god like are just running this setup, its very easy and minimal effort. I don't even need to say I hope this helps, I know it will but just remember, complex damage mods, anything less isn't worth giving up the hp. o7 rookies Level 1 forum warrior.

Artificer Ghost Bojo's School of the Trades 679	Posted - 2013.12.13 00:07:00 - [2] - Quote Uh... No. While I DO run damage mods on my G-Logi, because I'm not a Shield Tanker, I know it isn't the only thing that works. I run Stealth/E-War Scout, I know a Speed-Tanking Heavy, I've seen proper shield-tankers, with Extenders, Regulators, Rechargers, etc. Damage Mods don't win all fights, skill does. This is obviously a rage thread, so I urge newberries to NOT listen to it. I've killed plenty of proto-stompers with only a pair of STD Nova Knives and a Combat Rifle. I don't stack damage mods, I stack Shield Extenders. ~Art, CEO and Director of Educations at Bojo's School of The Trades, Co-Founder of the Learning Coalition

This is pushing players into a single class, and telling them that stacking Complex Damage Mods is the only viable option. New Eden is about freedom of choice, and if you tell the newbies (who WILL take you for your word, by the way), that the only good way to play is with tons of damage mods, it's going to make the game hell for them. Especially when, at that low of a level, they should be leveling Core Skills, and getting better equipment to fill the role that they chose. While stacking loads of Damage Mods is an option, it's not the only option. And if you're going to suggest it, at least tell them that there are other roles they can play. My proto-logi consists of 5 Armor Plates (4 complex, 1 Enhanced), and 3 Enhanced Damage Mods, with an Advanced Combat Rifle. When people ask me if they should go down the G-Logi path, so they can have my level of power and tank, I always tell them "It's a legitimate path, and a good one to choose, but there are other classes out there you might like better". Not to mention that normally, if you start off with the hardest setup, you come out on top almost all the time. Example, one of the teachers at the Learning Coalition is the all-star of Scouts. #2 on the Scout Killboard, in fact. He went 60/3 with a Minmatar Scout and a K5 Shotgun. Now, imagine, if Scouts were actually GOOD in the hands of an average player, then how good would my friend be? He started with the hardest class to play, got good at it, adapted to the condition of said class, and then when it gets a good buff, he'll probably be one of the more feared players in this game.

If you canGÇÖt hit your target the Damage Mods donGÇÖt do much. More shields and armor may help them make it to cover when they are being shot at. Although the TTK is so short right now that modules donGÇÖt make a huge difference, but CCP will fix that, probably next patch.

Play FPS all the time but new to RPG games, how to spend your SP best bang for buck, & how to stay isk positive. Play Eve buy not FPS. How to get better at your gun game ie how to use non AA weapons to improve your skills. How WP isnt just KDR - How to hack, drop uplinks, inject and hive - How to be a logibro lite and embrace Anyhow I'm sure with all the people we have we could make our own unofficial Certs. As for Complex Damagr modifiers its not just there SP. it's all the supporting SP (unless everything else is MLT) such as drop suit, weapon, core and then tactics and gun game. Sometimes a new player will just have to get burnt before they understand the benefits other times the advice is more suitable to a journeyman in he 5-10 million SP bracket.

Yeah it's not absolute but seen as three quarters of the players are logis or assault then this setup is pure win, you can kill anyone ridiculously quick. Obviously medic logis should brick tank generally as they need to shrug of shots but with current ttk brick tank doesnt really mean sweet fa at the mo, think about it next time you mow down a heavy in cqc, then imagine 3 damage mods in the mix.

I ran damage mods all through beta - I have been here since replication. I tried to not run them since launch to run shield tanking with recharge but module balance is so broken in this game that damage mods are so much more worth it - and I have now given into the inevitable (caused by CCPs rubbish balancing) Admittedly I am basing my loadout on what is required for PC. in pubs I have found that if I am not running mods I am not at too much of a disadvantage. But I would give this advice to non FPS vets too. I am a bit concerned that you think advice from FPS vets isn't the right advice for new people. Advice from vets would in my mind have a strong weighting. They know what they are doing. For example, core skills are not the b all and end all - beyond 3 they should only be maxed if SP cant be spent on active modules that give you greater bang for your buck. TTK will not necessarily be 'fixed' - even if it does need to be fixed, which I am not so sure it does. Rather bonuses such as regen / recharge and to armour need to be massively reworked More importantly CCP do not seem to be able to balance modules to create the different playstyles you talk about But by the time CCP may have got round to sorting out the above you might as well as have got your damage mods to begin with because you will have more SP to spend in whatever the 'new' playstyle CCP is trying to introduce

The bottom line is that if you can't drop people quick enough then any fit your use won't stand up in any challenging situation, medic logis brick tanking is the exception as you need to take and dodge alot of bullets. Hp and damage mods is the choice between surviving half a second quicker or dropping anyone in less than two seconds. Level 1 forum warrior. Minmatar and Gallente fw.

Fox Gaden Immortal Guides 1843	Posted - 2013.12.15 00:06:00 - [32] - Quote I think that people who have been playing FPS games since their balls dropped donGÇÖt have any concept of the challenges faced by someone who starts their first FPS in their 30GÇÖs. More health means they may get a chance to get a shot off before they die. More damage modes instead of more health means they will die before they get a shot off, which means they donGÇÖt get practice shooting. Once they have been playing for a month or two they may be able to react and aim fast enough for Damage mods to be worth something. For me it was a good six months before my gun game was good enough for Damage mods to be worth it. Since DUST is linked to EVE and is touted as an MMO as well as an FPS, we get a lot more players with no FPS experience than other FPS games probably do.

New Eden has a lot of economic warfare in it, so bring that more into Dust would be nice. Eve pilots get kill mails now so isk ratio would be nice and possible. We can strip the module information and just give their value to keep people's secret sauce just that. I might go 3/6 KDR but the isk ratio might be 300k:60k I know his Alt is expensive to run as the exo mass driver gets about 1 kill to 2 assists to 0.5-1 death. Turrent - the sound a tankers pants makes when he finds out the four swarm militia doing squats around him aren't AFK.

I'm pretty sure a lot of the positive KDR outfits are not economic. If someone's KDR is significantly below 1.0, they're going to be doing a lot of dying, reguardless of the suit they wear. Contrariwise, if it gets significantly above 1, they're going to be doing a lot less dying. reguardless of what suit they wear. After playing for 4+ months, I can now often go >1.0.... wearing a 100% free suit. So, my suit is infinitely econimical :D

Do you think medics in real life go running around shooting at enemies saying "look at me I'm invulnerable!!" No. They stay OUT of the line of fire, wating for safe opportunities to heal someone. It should be the same in DUST.

You're supposed to be ENCOURAGING multiple playstyles, THAT'S what I'm trying to say. I'm not biased, I'm trying to tell you that telling blueberries the only option is Logi/Assault is not the way to go. What you're doing is creating more FoTM people, and we all know how much we hate that. I have had a problem with encouraging multiple play styles when obviously one rules them all.

Never mix real life with a game where tanks run on Shield Boosters, and there are full body-armor suits made out of a metal fabric, that's directly linked to your neural system, and you spawn in on mini wormholes, that could possibly give you cancer, and the same full body-armor has a built in fail-safe device where the heat of a bullet is spread over a wider area, harming the user more but making the suit take less damage. Never, EVER mix real life and a game like this. ~Art, CEO and Director of Educations at Bojo's School of The Trades, Co-Founder of the Learning Coalition
