A piece of equipment that would change the game up a bit would be a sentry gun for all damage types?

Amarr Sentry Gun: Charge Firing High Damage Sentry gun that heats up over time DMG: 15 - 25

Caldari Sentry Gun: Slow firing rail turret that does great damage at longer ranges. DMG : 20

Gallente Sentry Gun: Median ROF turret with plasma rounds and hits at medium ranges: DMG 18.5

Minmatar Sentry Gun: Extremly fast ROF at short to medium range DMG 15

What do you guys think? its just an idea that came to mind and it would change up defending objectives and give the logi role some flavor. Or even a certain amount of time that its deployed for or even a radius you would have to be in to keep it runing.

It would be an equipment slot from your suit & extra proficientcy skills would be like

2% to deploy time per level

or

5% Radius you wouldhave to be in to keep it up per level

or

2% Bonus to damage per level

And finally

Something like a 5% tracking speed bonus

So much potential for a small sentry gun in DUST & it wouldn't be OP because of the minimal damage it would do. And it would be a small turret.

So tell me what are your thoughts of a sentry gun in DUST 514? I would like constructive feedback on what you guys think.

We have this already. The piece of equipment is called a Drop Uplink, and as soon as we have all racial heavy suits you wil have racial sentry guns just as you ask...so be proactive about it.

TLDR Why? Well actually they are NOT sentry guns sen-try gun A sentry gun is a gun that is automatically aimed and fired at targets that are detected by sensors. But if you need the definition of infantry I can get that for you to oh wait.... in-+fan-+try 1. soldiers marching or fighting on foot; foot soldiers collectively. Amarr FW Supporter.

But I still truly love DUST 514. A turret much like what i'm talking about WILL come out at some point. I do indeed have my hopes up for it. CCP is putting 10 yrs into this game. If in 10 years time there is no sentry gun you can destroy me on the forums all you want. I don't see a sentry gun as "useless" if its meant for defending and attacking automatically while you manage other areas and or watching the area with a little extra firepower. I'm done arguing with you.... & BTW there is already installations. That's enough to think a smaller version will come out. Amarr FW Supporter.
