I made 369K in one match last night, and the one guy I was running with made 420K. We wondered why our team was doing so badly then we realized that it was 5 vs 16. The rest had quit or gone afk. But him and I stayed, I started using my advanced suit after I lost my first proto and he only died once cause he is better at retreating then me.
Anyways for those that don't know, isk payout is based on the gear you're wearing vs the gear the enemy is, how many warpoints you get and where you place in the rankings. The cost of all the equipment and gear that the enemy team brings in is put against your and how well you do determines how much you get, that is why it's worth losing a couple of suicide militia fits with remote explosives to take out 2 or 3 protos.
The entire game is stacked against newbs but even when I had under 2 mil SP I still topped the leaderboard, it wasn't in kills like it is now (I usually did 0.86) it was smart placement of drop uplinks, staying to the outside and hacking objectives, picking off the lone guy here and there, sometimes I would rep and stay in the middle of a group but I could usually pull over 1000 warpoints a game. Use equalizers like remotes, it doesn't matter what suit they have if they walk into a bomb. |

Militia & basic gear is for new starters, advanced is for established players. Proto is for going the extra mile every now and then, when winning is more important than making ISK.
There are a few places this doesn't quite work though. One significant one for me, as a logi, is the fact that only proto suits have 4 equipment slots. Give the advanced logi suits a 4th equipment slot and I'd almost never run proto. I'm sure there are other situations where proto suits enable something that is just not possible with advanced; scan precision thresholds spring to mind as an example.
You don't understand there is me, who saved up 36 million since I started the game 6 months ago and am now down to 26 million because I started using proto and advanced for the last month. Then there is ONE MEMBER from Dirt Nap Squad that makes 80 million IN A WEEK. Anything to make it harder/easier on us to make/lose money means NOTHING to a corp in control of a district. |

I'd pull out my proto to combat proto if I didnt die once and go negative
Proto has a small increase if effectiveness for alot more price, not worth it
And lol proto doesn't stomp, ive stomped in std gear with my squad.
Thank you for defeating the OP's argument.
Well I like to speed tank as a scout, Unfortunately you just don't have enough cpu/pg and slot layouts to do it at basic so I have been forced to run advanced, oh, yea, also, someone had my Gal Basic suit messed up for like 3 weeks. |
