Energizers give a bonus to shield recharge amount and penalize shield HP. You might be thinking of regulators, which give a bonus to shield recharge delay and depleted shield recharge delay.

The dark cloud The Rainbow Effect Negative-Feedback 2590	Posted - 2014.03.27 22:50:00 - [13] - Quote I dont think that the cal sentinel is weak. I use it myself and think its awesome due to its high regen capability. And i still have over 750HP shields. The thing is if im low on shields i get into cover and wait to recharge. Armor heavys have the problem that they are only good for 1 serious encounter. And then it takes ages to repair back to full. You can say what you want but a good player in a caldari sentinel is more effective then a armor suit. Simply due to the fact if you let that heavy have only a few secs he will have full HP again. A armor suit can be overwhelmed much easier. Another thing is shield heavys are better for strafing. I shall show you a world, a world which you cant imagine, a world full off butthurt n00bs at the other end of my gun

Kigurosaka Laaksonen DUST University Ivy League 723	Posted - 2014.03.27 22:53:00 - [15] - Quote For what it's worth, the fit I'm working towards is a proto CalSent with 2x complex extenders, 2x complex energizers (or maybe rechargers - the hit to shield HP is pretty substantial), and 1x complex regulator, because less delay is better.

Are you: 1) Being Fluxed? 2) Being Shot with Plasma and/or Laser Weaponry? 3) Not using cover to take advantage of caldari insane shield regen? 4) Running into full squads of people and wonder why you aren't owning them all? 5) Being hit REs If you answered YES to ANY of these its you and not the suit.

I have lvl 5 ao lasers and plasma shouldn't be soing much damage Cal sent needs 100 or 150 armor nerf and 50 or 100 shield buff to make it competitive in pc without stacking 4 extenders with shield op 5 Closed beta vet Tears, sweet delicious tears

Yea, it has good regen but it can barely to a 1v1... 626 shields is my adv suit, my proto has 702 You have more total HP than my scrambler can put out before it overheats. I think. I know most heavies have more HP than I can put out before I overheat. While there is no better place to be wealthy than the Gallente Federation, there is no hell worse for the poor either.

In fact forget the war and the blackjack.
