Pre-1.8, the standard Amarr Sentinel and Basic Amarr Heavy had the same slot layout (1H, 2L). However, the Sentinel cost 3,000 ISK while the basic cost around 10,000 if I remember correctly. Spending a little more SP to save ISK in the long run was worth it for me! |

Adapting to overcome, eh? As far as I can remember, with each build, I had to switch my primary roles aka skill into something more viable for the current setting of the game.
And also to the SP comment, that's so true. You need to have versatility in New Eden. It's imperative for survival.

I'm not sure how having my Complex Damage mods turned into Advanced damage mods give me more variety...but sure...if that's what you think lol. I could flood you with examples but there is no point.
You can still use Damage mods, can't you? They were nerfed for everyone and not for you exclusively. That was just about balancing and increasing TTK and by far didn't make Damage mods useless.
And of course there is no point in trying because you damn well know that you can't flood me with examples.

May I remind you that pre 1.8 scouts were considered absolutely useless and that people said that CCP hates scouts? Look at the game now. If you judge your versatility only due to the current state of the game you probably don't belong into the new eden universe anyways. If you want to see it like this you will always have "wasted" SP. Hell: I have all shield skills at level 5 and all armor skills at level 5. I too don't make use of them all the time.
Not really true; it was pre 1.7 scouts that were considered worthless, and they'd been getting closer and closer to balance at that point.
And damage mods? Please show me, with maths, at what point a damage mod is useful in the game as it is currently balanced? Armoured heavies are the only suits for whom a damage mod is more useful than a shield extender.

Two high slots FTW
Although proto sentinel was pretty badass with 4 lows. 2 armor reps, two plates, 900 armor and 12.5 armor rep. (or if you were like me, two complex sprint mods instead of plates

Pre 1.8, I had Basic and Sentinel at Proto...
I rep tanked the Sentinel, but it was just for fun. The Basic frame not only looked more badass with its black and grey color scheme, but it was a beast for stacking damage mods for FG and HMG use. |
