Let's talk from a practical stand point.
Low slots have more value, they expand your capabilities far more then high slots. And with the nerf of the damage mod, HMG will reign king of DPS, which means High slots hold even less value to us.
And, shield tanking with our speed is a joke, sorry caldari guys, but you will have almost no use in PC beyond rooftop forging.
The big slugger to the heavy suit has also always been PG - which the Gal suit has more of. Seeing as my PC suit always had 20 something extra cpu, it seems the Gal suit was just meant for me. |

Gallente sentinel gets 4 lows.
That's the deciding factor for me anyways.
(But Shayz, you didn't even state which one you think is better!)
Well yeah, because neither of them have two slots at adv in either low or highs.
Only the minmatar has that, and at proto it gets another high slot too.
Speed and damage mods FTW
Personally, Gallente if you run with a logi, Amarr if you want to run solo. The reason I say that is because the Gallente's shields won't do anything for you really. You even have a slow shield rep so you have to rely on heavy armor repair to stay alive. Amarr sentinel has the advantage against other heavies and faster shields, meaning you can rep slower by yourself and still stay alive.
... but damage mod is getting nerfed by basically 50%...
How can you justify that? |

Gal Heavy will take any heavy 1v1, 4 slows means more health, more reps, more speed.
With the damage nerf, high slots offer NOTHING a heavy wants. It's almost a wasteful slot, if I could have a 5 slotted heavy suit I'd taie it in a heart beat. HMG didn't get nerfed, it's not going to need dmg mods to destroy. So even with the single high slot I'm more likely to put a mod to increase shield recharge rate. The armor complex gives will be worth more then the extra dmg 5% gives, and I don't think they reduced CPU/PG costs either for dmg mod, ew...
Gal reigns supreme, Amarr is the best Forge suit, maybe second to Minmatar. |

full plated, if by that you mean the normal armor stackers, yea, that's foolish. But if you mix them with Fero and the other one, it's a very effective and withstanding combination. |
