I don't always protostomp

But when I do I make sure it's against the OP

I don't always play dust but when I do I quit halfway thru the first match.

I don't always Thale.

But when I do I make sure it's against vets stomping rookies.

I will back up Johlsson on this. He is a friend of mine and my corp. We squad up quite a bit when he has time and he NEVER runs proto.

The game gives them the option to wear proto suits and equipment so they do.

Its not that they do something wrong.

If you could afford it im sure you ll end up doing the same thing

I have play with these corp a.e are not that bad some of them dont pub stomp.Molon labe are really good but are not proto stomper either they are just good lol (have get 7 ob with a molon labe squad once,two core focus rep tool,two heavy and 2 assault.We end up with over 3k wp each)XD

I remember when all games used to have Dark Souls difficulty.

And honestly, most who run proto can still give you a run for your money in STD gear. It might sound harsh but welcome to the brutality of New Eden. Start playing objective based games instead of always doing ambush. Objective based games increase your knowledge of strategy, which you can employ in Amb to a degree.

MOST proto can't do anything in ADV/STD fittings and if they can it's due to dmg mods stacked to the heavens. >.> Welcome to the Proto/Tank/RR/CR 514 :D They shall harvest your tears!

So you're implying actual skill gained from the grueling and violent grind towards proto is all lost?

Depending on the person.

I have almost 35mil sp and a shite ton of isk. Proto in Minmatar, Caldari assault, working on Logi build. Yeah I can field proto till the cows come home, but, I don't. Why.

1) I can hold a positive K/D with BPO'S in pubs, "not that I give a shite about kd cause it means **** in this game. Unless you want into a corp with a kd requirement, which is ***** to start with".

2) I know what I can do in my chosen fits and enjoy the challenge of running basic and advanced gear, "yes me and my top squad can go 25/1, 25/3, whatever, all day long, but who am I really proving anything too? My squadmates who all know what we can do? We don't have to have that score on the leaderboard to make ourselves feel like we accomplished something.

3) We do a lot of training in our corp, it would be hypocritical to go into a pub and run proto when these players are here for help learning to combat these pricks that run it 24/7, 365.

4) I love taking down protostompers with a bpo suit, "that makes me feel accomplishment".

5) We got enough problems with the scrubs that tank spam right now, no need to add to the problems this game already has.

6) You put 75% of those guys in a basic fit against a truly skilled player in the same gear, they will lose.

I love all of your points and your corp is pretty good for basic/adv users but some of them are a bit too cocky xD

Funny how using good gear in this game is consodered bad, cant remember when I have ever seen a BF3/4 vet with the standard weapons

Fatal Absolution:
They be OP and have lots of former bunnies.

What about Imperfects? Just one of them can cause as much havock as a squad of the other guys. I get more concerned about just one Imperfect than a team of Nyain San.

dem tears ...

Can we add The Generals to this list?

I've be going against them in dominion all day today, games filled with massive tank spam and prototype gear

Redlined and slaughtered the blueberries had no chance, its sad and pathetic

Good point but a little late. Imperfects split up a long time ago.

This thread shall be used to publicly aknowledge the scions of no skill so that others might be aware of their actions, transgressions, and take appropriate action to either avoid or kill such members. Please be aware that all these groups commonly run with plentiful numbers of nanite injectors and that should you choose to engage them, it is recommended that you not only kill them, but make sure their non revivabke by headshotting them, blowing them to bits, or shooting their body after its down. I reccomend this to such an extent that you ignore their other near by players to insure their 200k suit stays dead.

The best tactics for handling these corporations is to use a cheap disposable suit armed with remote explosives. With the exception of certain heavy builds, no proto suit can survive a remote, and they do not need to be double tapped. I personally reccomend a militia scout shotgunner build. Dampeners are useless as they regularly have at least one proto scanner available.

I encourage players to not associate with these players as they ruin the game and abuse the match making system. I have marked some as deserving of faction warfare team killing due to the unrepentant and abusive actions, and that perhaps some repercussions for said actions will at least give them pause before steam rolling some newberries and those less skilled/experienced.

Nyan San/chan:
Well known proto stompers from japan. This corp is rarely found as an individual and is often squaded with a full squad of other proto sompers, usually from their own corp though known to squad and que syn with other known proto stomp corps. They are fond of using proto tanks with proto logo suit drivers who will hop out to repair their vehicle, allowing them to have more hardeners and damage mods then most proto tankers. They rarely role rail gun tanks but will often bring 3-4 proto blaster tanks to the field. When not using tank squads they will use the ,latest FoTM weapon, at this current time proto rail rifles, usually assault. Several of their members will also use core locus grenade spam so avoid bunching in groups, and remember that their blast radius is larger then other locus grenades. They are also well known users of the equipment lag glitch, however the recent patch seems to have fixed this to an extent. They will also commonly use cheap locations such as the mushroom top, or other unassaultable locations if the situation warrants. Most commonly found in ambush. Their actions warrant FW killing in my opin

Ancient exiles: not as commonly found as the first two, squads and que syncing squads are still a regular occurance, and often consists of at least 1-2 tanks. Little other Intel is known of their tactics and associations with other corps, however they still pose a threat when found in public matches

Sver True blood: A large corp with many members, not all of whome proto stomp, however when found In A full squad of their own it is more or less gaurenteed to consist of all proto players. When found they do not utilize tanks as much as the others, however that does not mean they will not do so. Their corps proto players seem quite fond of HMGs and it is not uncommon to find 2 or more protons backed by logo support.

There are many many other corps in addition to these who engage in such actions, usually less often then the above mentioned corps. Should thier threat to amush become more common tactics and information may becoeme available. Other offending parties include

Molon Labe (removed from main list due to some of their members willingness to talk, majority of members seem not to abuse the system however may occasionally end in protostomping due to the coincidences of matchmaking)
War ravens (may warrant upgrading pending further information.
Duma corp (rarely found but tank spams when encountered)
Rainbow effect (rarely encountered but a threat when found)
Generals (accused but uncomfirmed)

I would offer isk bounties on these players however such is outside my budget at this time, if any body wishes to discuss become patron for such bounties however please message me in game. I will continue to update this as tactics, corps, and other information becomes available, and encourage players tobrag by provideing kill screens, information, and other such details pertaining to proto stompers.
