DUST Search - How do you write your fittings?

Medium = MED, Assault = AST, logistics = LOGI, heavy = HVY, etc

Number from 0 to 3 after the the suit type to signify tier. 0 = militia, 1 = standard, 2 = advanced, 3 = prototype.

Number in parentheses is the total HP.

Weapon and equipment abbreviations. Lowercase letter before the abbreviation signifies variant (aSCR = assault scrambler rifle). I also do the same for grenades, avG = AV grenades, locG = locus grenades, fluG = flux grenade.

I add a number after the abbreviation of weapons specifically, but only if its advanced or prototype; 2 for advanced, 3 for prototype. I won't bother with the number if the variant makes it obvious; for example, I will put "SCR2" to signify advanced regular scrambler rifle, but I won't bother putting a number at the end of "aSCR" since the fact that its the assault variant already lets me know its advanced or higher; if higher than advanced, I add a number. I should put a "aSCR3" for a prototype assault scrambler rifle (3 meaning prototype) but I just write it as "caSCR" since the "ca" means "Carthum" to me (protype assault scrambler rifle is Carthum).

I end fits with a price tag rounded to the next hundred ISK. Prototype fits have no price tags because if i'm using them, then I don't care about losing money.

examples:
AST1 (571) aSCR/SMG/NH/avG 31.3
assault dropduit standard with 571 total shields and armor + advanced assault scrambler rifle + standard SMG + nanohive + AV grenade = 31,300 ISK

AST2 (667) CR2/SMG/AS/fluG 50.2
assault dropsuit advanced with 667 total shields and armor + advanced combat rifle + standard SMG + active scanner + flux grenade = 50,200 ISK

Edit: I should start separating the weapons, equipment, and grenades with a dash instead of a slash

For best results press R1 repeatedly. Consult your doctor if your erection persists for more than four hours.

I would not mind some criticism of my methods. As I am not a pilot, I will not be including vehicle fittings. To organize my 30 (please give me more) crappy fits, I use a naming system with prefixes and abbreviations with some punctuation to separate weapons and equipment. For example: 1 - CMFA aRR/SMG//NH Numbers denote the general power (or cost) of the fit with 1 being generally all STD fits all the way to 4's being full proto. I reserve 5's for milita or budget fits. Capital letters denote commonly known abbreviations of dropsuits, weapons and equipment. In this case this fitting is a Caldari Medium Frame Assault. All of the suits thus far have unique three or four letter combinations, for example, AHFS is Amarr Heavy Frame Sentinel, where AHFC is Amarr Heavy Frame Commando. Lower case letters denote prefixes. In this example the "a" makes it clear that the weapon on this fit is an Assault Rail Rifle. Other letters work well as modifiers, for example, "m" for milita, "b" for breach, etc. Single slashes separate weapon from weapon and equipment from equipment. Double slashes separate these two groups. Often I will overlook grenades unless they are integral to the fit, and then they would only be separated from weapons by single slashes. This is mostly because I usually run fluxes on everything anyway, but also because logi fits get a little too long. Here are a few more examples: 1 - CMFL RR//AS/DU 1 - MMFL CbR//AS/NH/NI 2 - AHF aScR/aSMG 5 - mAHF FG/SMG/AV ...phew..ok... Now when fittings are to be written down, I use the following relatively self-explanatory system. This is more for sharing a fit with someone or planning out potential fits before having specific dropsuit skills. 1 - CMFA RR/aScP//RE L Rail Rifle S Assault Scrambler Pistol G M-1 Locus Grenades X Remote Explosives = Enhanced Shield Extender = Enhanced Shield Extender - Basic Cardiac Regulator - Basic Armor Repairer It works with pretty much all suits... 1 - GMFL bAR//AS/DU/NI L Breach Assault Rifle G Flux Grenades X Active Scanner X Drop Uplink X Nanite Injector - Enhanced Armor Plates - Basic Armor Plates 3 - AHFS HMG/aSMG/Flux S M209 Assault SMG H Boundless Heavy Machine Gun G Flux Grenades = Complex Heavy Damage Modifier - Basic Armor Plates - Basic Armor Plates - Complex Armor Repairer Naturally I expect my systems to change (or break) as new weapons, equipment and modules enter the game. How do the rest of you guys organize your fits? Or do you at all? I welcome any criticism of my system; I'm sure it has some flaws somewhere. One that I am aware of is that is tend to neglect specific prices, which I am sure is crucial to some people. If anyone has a vehicle fitting system they are encouraged to share. I am just so tired of talking about tanks tanks tanks.... For best results press R1 repeatedly. Consult your doctor if your erection persists for more than four hours.

The number tier system works phenomenally, the only reason I don't use it is because I seldom use anything above advanced level. 0123 is a good way to put things in order of damage output...I'm thinking sniper rifles in particular. The HP value is a good idea. I try to keep all of my similar fits in the same HP range so I don't have to do this. The price tag is really relevant though, and my system generalizes it a bit too much. Like you said about your proto fits, if I need a specific suit for a specific situation (Ishukone Assault Forge Gun ), the price tag is the last thing I want to think about. Oh, and I prefer to use 5+ for militia/budget fits because it sends them to the bottom of the list where I don't have to look at them. I use 0's for either mains or practice projects. This is a good system I might have to steal your price tags. For best results press R1 repeatedly. Consult your doctor if your erection persists for more than four hours.
