Armor tanking owns not just because of the ability to tank and gank but they have repair hives and rep tools while shield does not. Why not throw in some hives that boost shield or have some sort of tool to boost shield? Would go a long way in evening out things a bit. That and nerf tanks all to hell. |

So basically you think that's even with armor repair modules, having a repper on your back, and standing on a hive? |

you are right. since shields have extenders as highs and regulators as lows, then armor should also have plates as lows and reps as highs, right? only logically makes sense no?
also, armor makes you slower and it requires the same slot to use cardiacs kinetics if you want to neutralize the speed
as a SCR user, I understand how difficult it is to fight through armor, but there are more weapons aimed at killing armor than shields Scr = shield, rail rifle/combat rifle = armor.
You said rechargers and regulators. Rechargers take off some tank. Then throw on damage mods and shield tanking is gone. I'm not crying over anything I switched to armor tanking a long time ago. Shield tanking is inferior and I think adding shield rep tools and shield rep hives would be a nice start to evening it out. |

To do that it requires teamwork so yea. Teamwork is OP. Everyone knows this.
The repper yeah but it takes nothing to load up on armor and stand inside of a hive and what's that? I got room for two damage mods too.. |

Smart players stand out in front of their hives. There are ways around it but there isn't an equal for the shield. You're listing off ways to combat things that armor has that shield doesn't. My point is that shield should have these things as well. |

A fix to everything would be to get rid of damage mods altogether and just make proficiency worth 5% with maybe a 10% bonus at pro V. That would give the gun 30% more gank all decked out. |
