I would fight back with my proto gear but it's not worth it because isk payout is so low that I cannot afford to lose proto especially when I'm playing with 15 fresh out of the academy and were in a losing battle.
I don't know why you noobs even bother sticking around. I've been playing (and paying) for around 8 months and the game's done nothing but get a lot more difficult than when I started. I'm really disappointed with it at the moment and am looking forward to upcoming alternatives such as Destiny. Granted, maybe the current ongoing Heavy-Stomper week or the fact that I'm a below average player has something to do with it, but statistically 50% of us must be below average, and I'm not sure what that means in DUST 514 because I think there's nothing but hardcore supervet players left around here anyway. When the guys who've been around since just about the beginning are wearing their best suits and playing with their corps, they stomp just about everyone and everything. I used to think the game would get easier as I skilled up, but nothing could be farther from the truth. I've got 25 million SP and have skilled up my core skills (armor and shield included) and Assault Rifle and still get one-shotted and out-ranged by several overpowered weapons such as Rail Rifles, InvinciTanks, etc. What's the point of skilling into armor and shields if you're always getting one-shotted I ask? I had been naively hopeful that CCP would be interested in prioritising the attracting of new players, but so far no good. Instead, they seem to be dedicated to developing new OP gear (cloaked scout suits next?), which seem to mostly benefit the supervets who are sitting around on millions of spare SPs that they can instadrop on it. (Dare I mention the word "respec" lest this post be banned to the netherworld thread of the same topic? Because I want one in 1.8 because I don't think I could stand such a huge nerf to my gear and the thought of having to start over from scratch on the next FOTM gear. By the way, I've already had gear nerffed out of existence, f@ck you very much, so I suspect my Logi suits will be just about worthless as of 1.8.) So, go ahead, stick around for another 8 months and you too can look forward to becoming a bittervet.
To be fair, there are some basic bits in DUST 514 that I really love and that's why I'll probably be sticking around till at least Fanfest to see what carrots they dangle next. Hopefully, CCP will come through for us in the end and all this BETA-Game type nonsense will pass into videogame history.
