Hw about if it worked like at kinectic catalyzer but reduced your armor/shields working similar to shield energizers. Say base gives you 8% sprint bonus but reduces ehp by 5%, enhanced gives you 11% sprint bonus but reduces ehp by 10%, and complex gives you 13% sprint bonus but reduces ehp by 20%. I tried to give percentages a little higher than normal kinectic catalyzers so they are worth using but I'm not sure if complex could be 13% or 14% without screwing with hit detection.

That's kind of why I didn't want to go with a speed increase, whilst it would be kind of cool to sprint like the guy from Crysis, it would eff with the hit detection too much.

I like the idea that we can have more active modules or equipment; like the cloak or active scanner. I think perhaps the cardiac regulator could have another variant: The cardiac energizer. This module uses the energy of the shields to overpower the base stamina pool of the suit, allowing the user to sprint for longer at the cost of shield energy. This type of module would work wonders for the speed tanking issues we are having and would allow heavies to move a little more freely.

At the cost of armor your weapon damage could either be quicker or higher. You could keep going until armor ran out. Higher costs for heavier suits. At the cost of sprint speed your armor either be auto repair faster or last adding more HP. You could keep going until you stand still for 2 seconds. Higher costs for scouts suits. and the list goes on. If you want speed use kinetic catalyzers.

Well I was thinking that it could be like that or it could act as extra stamina. It would be nice for those moments where you want to get around that corner as someone opens fire. I think it might add some interesting risk vs reward stuff.

The active module ideas are great however you don't need to sacrifice any health. Just make them a little more effective as the passive with slightly more fitting costs, since afterall they are only in use part time. This wouldn't be game breaking but would give you marginally better gains for short bursts of time. They'd work similar to how the old vehicle modules worked, passive modules give you a constant benefit while being easier to fit while active modules give you a larger gain for short periods of time with higher fitting costs.
