Nausea1987 is the best matar heavy I've seen in a advance suit.

I think you may be a BOLD CAP freak as well

Gal sent....4 complex kin kats...for sprint of at least 7.81

**** the haters.
Speed tanking Heavies is gold for a former worthy Scout.

Assault HMG
2 Complex KinCatz
1 Enhanced Cardiac Regulator
Armor Reps in remaining Slots
Damage Mods in the High(s)
Sidearm & Grenade of choice (SMG+Flux, here)

Scouts are the only ones I've seen outrun the fitting, but only by a narrow margin on the bricked ones.

You're still a big blip on everyone's TacNet, so you have to be more aware of positioning. That's why the AHMG, to engage from safer distances. Damage Mods because it's a AHMG.

That's my 0.02 ISK...

Played against a Minmatar Sentinal that ran almost as fast as my Caldari Scout last night. Almost as fast and more than twice the HP. It was scary.

I have ~8.0 sprint speed. He must have had ~7.5 or more.

Im a speed freak.
I cannot live with a SLOW character.
Even pre 1.8 where i ran an Amarr Assault i had the most stupid of fits using my 3 low slots of my Ak.0 for 2 Cx Prof Dampeners and a Complex Kin Cat. (yes the Horror, A Shield Tanked Ak.0 ; around 450 shields at the time).
I suffered heavily in the times i used a Sentinel ( For the FG / AV purposes ) because of the same.
Now, I like being agile but i ALSO LOVE HIGH ROF weapons
My Gk.0 scout suit is already maxed out, i have all the passives i need at Lv.5 and the weapons i use on it too: SMG, ACR, CR , AR, MD & SCR/ASCR.

Im missing just ONE High RoF weapon, the HMG.
The HMG is a BEAUTIFUL weapon, sadly ( and thankful in the name of balance) My Gk.0 Scout cannot use it.
Now i cannot run in anything that runs below 7 at Sprint speed i JUST CANT so i come here to the Forums to ask for some advice, see what people think i should use for a SPEED TANKED SENTINEL.

Im thinking the best 2 options are the Minmatar and the Gallente Sentinels The minmatar because of the natural Speed advantage and the Gallente because of the NATURAL HP repair and high amount of LOW slots.
Im looking for a sprt SPEED AT LEAST over 6.5 (best would be 7) and SOME basic level of armor repair.The Armor repair DOES NOT NEED To be very impressive, but at least 1 or 2...Speed is of more importance.
The idea is to function as a Big fat scout,running behind enemies , shooting at them then ''hiding'' while i recover some HP, rinse and repeat.

Any opinions for this wannabe heavy?

Yeah,but how much stamina regen does that leave me at?Whats the point of running +0.10 sprt speed with -0.4 Movements speed and -25 stamina regen?
Plus only 2 armor rep per sec for an Armor tanker..

thats the problem here......

You're asking for a hybrid speed/stealth/attack heavy? Such a combination does not really exist. You can get one of any three, possibly two of them with lesser preferences, but all 3 is just nonsense.
You'll need at least 2 dampeners for casual "hiding" and 3 catalyzers or so to "Run", also one low slot for a repair or energized armor.
That's about 6 slots predetermined... if you can even fit that many slots.

Update: Gallente Sentinel
3 Complex Kinetic Catalyzers
1 Enhanced Cardiac Regulator

7.85 Sprint
4.25 Movement

~475/675 Shields/Armor

I outrun everybody. Scouts without any Plates are the only ones to get by me.
When I get my aim dialed back in, you will hear "Nerf KinCatz on Heavies" on these forums.

You fit is an optimal speed tanked Heavy.

But, mine has the advantage that it does not need to be Proto to run at 7.7 ;)

Today I learned that Minmatar Sentinels can strafe.
I was surprised and quite dead.

Minmatar sentinel is 6.7 sprint speed with one complex, 7.44 with two

As for gallente vs minmatar...yes the gallente has an armor repair bonus, but the faster shield recharge, and more shields on the minmatar is better suited for speed as the gallente will be good in the first encounter, but get screwed over in the second.

The thing is, the minmatar doesn't have the option to completely speed tank. If you do that, you're wasting 550 armor that would be more use to you if you could repair it back.

However, minmatar regens stamina like CRAZY, so while you might not move faster than a gallente with 3 sprint mods, you can recharge your stamina faster and sprint whenever you want instead of having to walk around slowly aiting for it to recharge.

Now for the HMG

You're looking at a weapon that practically immobilizes you when you fire. Because you can't sprint and fire your movement speed is what you're relying on, and the minmatar again wins in this category.

However, going up against other HMGs will be difficult, as the winner of an HMG duel is who fires first, who gets the most headshots, who can deal the most damage, and who has the most health.

Pretty much what that means is that the minmatar suit CANNOT go face to face with other heavies and survive easily. UNLESS you use the burst HMG.

Why the burst? Well unlike the standard one, you can deal an insane amount of DPS with one burst (we're talking enough to instantly kill std or advanced suits, or a proto if you can land a headshot).That's not the main benefit though...

The burst HMG allows you to move around while you're fighting. Burst, sprint jump, burst, hide around corner, pop out, burst, run away...

It's very similar to a shotgun because of this, and works well as a counter against scouts too. However, keep in mind that the burst is only good in 1v1 matchups. Unless you are really good with it, taking on more than one enemy will be suicide. As long as you stick to engaging one enemy at a time, the burst will do all the work for you, and absolutely melt other heavies that you will no doubt have trouble with.
