Given that Minmatar is usually more shield tanked than armor tanked, the slot layout, and that it's supposed to be a speedy, flanky suit, I think the Minmatar Sentinel should have 435 shield and 390 armor instead of 390 shield and 435 armor. This would make the suit much better overall and would make the 3 high 2 low slot layout make sense, as well as make its main resistance (15% shield resist vs lasers) be on its higher HP value rather than its lower HP value to match all the other sentinels. |

HELL NO change them to:
435 Armor 435 Shields
and buff the rest of the minmatar suits to their highest current hp value.
I could give you 10 reason why the Dust team cant get the Amarr tank style right but they are all out of care.

I'm fine with Minmatar getting only 160 Armor and 160 Shields :P They already have the worst Sentinel out of the 4, so why not just chop off a limb or 2 and call the job finished? Isn't like the Amarr isn't going to turn them into piles of meat at the end of the day.

No.
If you want a more consistent answer look at the min logi
They swap armour and shield specialisation. The commando is the more shield orientated heavy

Why would you want more shields anyway?
Even with the suit to proto you'd only debuff the laser weapons proficiency - they'd still get damage mod bonus and +20% damage off the bat. Its a perk
Now look at the armour bonus. Really look at it. Then come back to me and say you want less armour.

Debuffing proficiency is sort of the entire idea of the sentinel resistances. And so what about the armor resistance - 10% armor resistance to blasters, a shield-damaging weapon... Woohoo. It makes no sense compared to Cal and Gal who resist weapon strong points and is a major downside for both Amarr and Minmatar when it comes to resistances, on top of the fact that the mixed resistance layout is weaker than Cal's both-shield and Gal's both-armor resistances.
The Min sentinel is supposed to be a hit and run suit, meaning shield tanking makes more sense for it. And again, 3 highs and 2 lows means more shield tanking capability, and its main resistance is for shields, making it the only sentinel with its 15% bonus on its lower hp value... I feel like I explained all this in my first post. |

Minmatar in Eve Online use both Shield and Armor tanking, depending on the ship. This isn't so outlandish

If my Amarr Sentinel can tank every other Sentinel with a HMG I'm happy. I might have trouble against other Gallente Sentinels, would be nice if my armor resists hybird - rail, but the Caldari could use the handicap Atleast it would be very reduced shield damage from Caldari weapons, it might take awhile for them to shead awhile my shields, but my shields will come back alot faster then my armor will

Shotguns doing -20% damage with no proficiency bonus doesn't appeal to anyone then

for those of you who dont know... In EVE, Minmatar are (obviously) dual tankers. but that doesnt mean they always have more of one thing over the other.
some ships have more shields than armor and others have more armor than shields, so if ccp give a matari suit with more armor than shields, it doesn't bother me because not all minmatar suits should have more shields than armor anyway unless its balanced between shields/armor anyway.
so stop complaining that one suit has more armor because they are dual tankers for a reason anyway and any suit can have either more shields/armor
