it isnt slower and you have 4 low slots. i see no problem with it. put a kincat or 2 and you have a fast suit. and still have room for other modules

Edit: my bad looked at the wrong suit. but be honest is .05 of a meter much?

But I'm a little bewildered abut the damage resists for Sentinel suits? It makes sense that the primary resist is aligned to the race's primary enemy's damage type. But the secondary resist for each suit appears to be aligned to one of the suit's racial allies...

So dropped the explosive weapon clip size increase for Min assaults?

I know there was a lot of QQ from the forums along with the Mass Driver but it would have really bee nnice to give the Flaylock a bit of a break (even if it wouldn't really do much to make it work better)

More like hit 'n' waddle tactics.

Expecting a heavy to be hit and run was always suspect. Something has to stand and deliver for the rest to hit and run
- Or did you expect Gallente to always be there to be the broad force

Hit and run doesn't require short delays, anyway.
Shield tanked direct combat requires the short delay to make use of cover. A hit and run player, meanwhile, will be able to hide, regenerate and come back - So total regeneration time is far more important for them.
Not that you could do hit and run in a heavy outside of sumo combat and LAV abuse.

LOL... no

The issue I have is the weak buffer and lousy recovery. Its almost like they were designed to have Minmatar Logistics standing behind them.

i wish CCP would just give me a dropsuit respec, i dont want to use the amarr heavy anymore i've waited since closed beta for new heavy suits and being forced to use the only heavy suit available to me and CCP wont even give me a decent suit respec

simply 1 extra round would have helped us MD greatly. we did not need 11. dissapointed about this but it won't stop me from running MD, now the min assault suit is still pointless?

i can kinda see why they didn't give us a full respec tho. if they did then we'll feel entitled every time they update. sux still but i see their reasoning.

A good result. I would have liked to siphon about 2 million SP from weapons I no longer intend to use but can live with that. I think the older concept art of the Gal heavy was WAY more badass. I said to my corpies that that marfugger's sole weapon should be picking you up and breaking your back on his knee; guns just slow him down...haha his eyes were badass, this guy just looks.....err.

Man, Matari commando here I come (if there are LP versions). Amarrians will be happy to play with those young choir boy looking scouts. Amarr scout looks badass, he has a cool face.

Yeah, the final Gal heavy just doesn't look Gallente at all. From the back it's totally Caldari with blunt edges. The older concept that you mention was way better, it reminds me of other Gallente suits, this new one does not. It makes me think of a Caldari heavy with an ugly face.
It's a shame, but what can be done.

I was kinda hoping that the minmatar heavy would look more like this bruiser right here.

Fortunately I'm happy with Matari suits. I'm going Gal on my main but this alt is my pride and joy. But yeah, the other Gal, man... <3

at this stage of the game, honestly, who doesn't have Complex Shield Extenders AND Complex Armor Plating...

That was one of the first things I did

Use the million clone challenge to save up for some core upgrades

You are getting a dropsuit respec. Just not a weapon or dropsuit upgrades respec.

Thank the CPM too. They had to fight to get any form of respec.

Overall the changes are good especially when it comes to effectiveness of weapons to shield and armor. But as always there are some things that still need some adjustment.

Where are the basic frames stats?

Amarr Sentinel Bonus:
2% Shield resistance on an armor suit
Adjust it to 2% Armor resistance against explosives

Amarr and Gallente Sentinel Slot Layout and Shield Recharge Delay(SRD)
Amarr are true armor tankers but Gallente have better layout for it.
Switch these Slot Layouts and SRDs

"Neo" Sentinel A-1
It has a better SRD than the ISK Sentinel A-1

Sentinel Armor and Shield
The ratio are too balanced on Caldari,Galllente and Amarr
They are too imbalanced and too low on Minmatar (90HP difference to Caldari and Gallente, 135HP to Amarr)
Caldari: 340(-50)/575(+50)
Gallente: 575(+50)/340(-50)
Minmatar: 455(+20)/410(+20)
Amarr: 630(+30)/330(-30)
Validates the Cal SRD of 4/1 as it-¦s a sitting duck without shields now.

Gallente Sentinel and Commando Armor Repair Rate
It-¦s nothing even with additional Repairers
Increase it to 2HP/sec

The look of the Amarr Heavy Frame has not been changed
It looks way too bulky and improvised and not elegant and smooth enough for an Amarr suit.
Create a new helmet more like the medium frames one.
Flatten all the armor plates on shoulder, chest and arms and integrate them more into the coat.

Amarr and Gallente Commando Slot Layout and SRD
Same as above

Minmatar Commando HP
Again that huge difference (90HP to Caldari and Gallente, 120HP to Amarr)
Change it to 290(+30)/320(+20)

Helmet of the Amarr Light Frame
It-¦s forehead looks like that of an alien
Please put the forehead part a bit backwards.

Scout bonuses
The scout bonuses are completely imbalanced
Caldari bonus is worth one basic range amplifier, one basic and one advanced precision enhancer
Gallente bonus is worth one basic range amplifier and one proto profile dampener
Minmatar bonus is worth one proto codebreaker and five proto sidearm damage mods (though only for knives)
Amarr bonus is worth not even one basic cardiac regulator
Adjust the values to a more suited level
Caldari: 20% scan radius per level (2 proto modules)
Caldari are more about range than precision
Gallente: 5% scan precision and scan profile per level (1 proto module each)
Gallente is about profile dampening, more on pair with Gallente logi bonus
Minmatar: 5% hacking speed and 3% nova knife damage per level (1 adv code breaker and 3 proto damage mods)
Amarr: 30% Stamina bonus and Stamina recharge rate per level (1,5 proto cardiac regulators)

Gallente Scout Slot Layout
It should start with 2/2 instead of 1/3

Magsec SMG DPS
It-¦s a sidearm but it has a higher DPS that an Assault Rifle.
Reduce it ROF to 550RPM(0,109)

The AR damage nerfs
The only ones that need a nerf are the Rail Rifle and the Scrambler Rifle, the AR and the CR are fine.

A dropsuit upgrade respec
There was only an armor heavy so a lot of SP have been wasted into armor skills only to dust there now.

That are my points so far, more will follow once I get to try all the stuff out.
Every average player might not be that fussy about everything so I can say that the DEVs did a great job, keep up the good work.

Cheers,
Aml
