I expect to see some folks run it because they are new and have no choice, but there's a shockingly high number of people who never actually edit any of their fittings, regardless of how long they've played.
Is this due to
A) Stupidity and lack of knowledge that customization is possible?
B) Stupidity and lack of awareness that better equipment improves your odds of winning?
C) Stupidity and lack of balls concerning the fear of loss?
D) Stupidity and WHY ARE YOU DRIVING AWAY LET ME IN YOUR TANK DURRRRRRRRRRRRRRR |

Not everyone has the luxury of squatting on districts for free ISK out the wazoo. If you die more than once in a pub with proto you LOSE money. Eventually becoming flat BROKE. I don't see why this is so hard to understand.

Because it isn't true.
You make the money back so long as your WP gain is high enough. Also it helps to not die. |

The question is why would I spend it against a proto wolfpack? Think about it, why bother wasting it.
If you are asking why no one seems to bother putting up a fight, try runing solo once in a while, when you come across a wolfpack see just how much you loose.

They'd be too scared to run solo and in the marginal chance they did, they'd wimp out once they got pubstomped by O.H. or some other corp.

I'm starting to see this trend also. Let's face it. No one can make money with out PC. Also Why go 16-3 with proto when I can do the same with sh!t fits. I run proto also and with all the imbalances its not worth it

"Proto wolfpacks". Pffft.
I run solo 99.9% of the time. You run advanced the majority of the time, run proto when you want to have some fun smacking people around. That's how you make money and kill those people. |

I'm a MLT Heavy using summabitch. I have 2 racial Proto Heavies, but still just use the MLT. Why? Because pub payouts ******* suck. I could run Proto and Advanced fittings, die 3 times and be "in the red", financially speaking. I can run my MLTs, get the same number of Kills, a few more Deaths, and rake in the ISK like my district is Locked.

What a garbage suit. Because it averages 100,000 ISK cheaper than a fully fitted ADV or PRO and about 50,000 cheaper than a properly fitted STD. Those bonuses are so overrated anyway. If you can dance in a Heavy, know where you cover is, and be aware of your surroundings, the MLT really isn't bad. Not overloaded and slowed with Plates and apparently doesn't show up on a lot of Passive scans.

Or, the option may actually lie outside the realm of possibilities. You obviously narrowed this down to just stupidity when the truth of the matter, most people just don't give a flying f*** what other people think. You mistake apathy and indifference for stupidity.

Not everyone happens to be in the largest alliance of players Molden Heath has every known who holistically dominate a massive passive ISK flow and will never need to worry about ISK ever again, use this knowledge and power to destroy the assets of those who aren't ensuring they don't have the ISK to make use of Proto content against them and force them into earning ISK by ensuring they play to a set value to get a marginal profit.......
Fortunately I don't care...... I've been throwing away ISK and assets in the biggest ISK sink in the game for months now...... I'm choosing to be poor.

Let me give you a list of logical answers with no one using stupidity as an argument :
- some people like to use a lot of differents dropsuits and are forced to use militia/standard gear as a counterpart for their versatility - using militia/standard add challenge in a game, because yes, some players look for challenge - the redline slaughter in proto isn't fun or challenging, simply boring (redline in general is, no matter what your gear) - some players are ruined or simply want to have some (or a lot of) money in their wallets - proto players or pilots might want to have money so they can run dropsuits/vehicles in other games. - militia/standard gear is really effective when you want to try a fitting completely different from what you are used to - to have some expendable dropsuits like a drop uplink on a scout for the begenning or a standard HMG on a low cost heavy for close quarters combat is always useful - to do good ratio/wp in militia/standard increase your experience and awareness of gameplay and tactics - people have maybe noticed that since 1.8, HP don't really matter because any dropsuit is backshotgunned in a matter of seconds every game. Personaly I don't care, but I know it is really frustrating for many people.
And I bet there are a lot more reasons I don't think about that can justify the fact to play in cheap dropsuits on Dust.
Personaly, I'm proud to play in standard dropsuits and happy to have all the gallente dropsuits at my disposal. It is a way to play like spawnkilling and tankspamming.

This isn't about running proto 24/7. This also isn't about having DNS tags. The problem is that most people who complain about getting smashed simply contribute it to proto. Proto isn't all that great, all it takes is a good flanking and you're rightfully screwed no matter what you wear. What Himiko is trying to bring up is the fact that militia just sucks, and makes doing anything nearly impossible.
You can still be fairly effective running standard gear, and turn a profit. my average std suit costs around 1200 Isk per suit. You get approximately 150-250 thousand average per match. Which means you can lose about 9-20 suits and that will break you.
Not many people I know will lose that many suits in a pub unless it was a really intense match, which increases payout. Point being that Militia sucks, you can still run a decent STD fitting, be effective, and turn a profit. Spend the money.

Yeah but why run a std fit, when a comparable 'frontline' fit is free. I have a fit that costs me just 5,000 ISK a pop, and only because I shell out for the ACR, when it comes to a WTF/AE/DNS pubstomp I know no matter how much I loose Imwill still probably make a profit and if I can ensure that at least one of them doesn't get a perfect KDR then all the better.

Terminating an enemy Prototype Fit: Price less Isk is pointless if you never spend it. Himiko, maybe you should try playing with a fresh new character to see why the new players are forced into such situations. I know with my alts I need to filter money into the character due to how many deaths you endure when most characters are already vastly superior than the new players.

That domi fit successfully held off 5+ pilots simultaneously for more than a month straight because they were too scared to risk anything larger than a T1 frigate. It also managed to drop orbitals at the same time.
It was a super situational fit for a situational opponent that had to do many things at once, and I dare say it's an incredibly good fit for that situation.
If you want to talk trash, that's fine. My team needed orbital support and I had one account available to provide it with. I did it with the one ship using the one fit that could. If you want to talk trash about it, let's go into how long it took for your guys to actually grow a pair and do something about it? |

It's not, when a groups main source of ISK has to be Public Contracts maximising profits in the smartest answer for them as it shortens the time they have to far....whereas an Alliance that makes billions of ISK weekly can afford to naturally pay and subsidise their players losses if necessary.
If most smaller corporations could afford to subsidise their mercenaries costs they would not run MLT as often to farm the ISK.
It IS as simple as that.
BPO and MLT gear is the best in terms of ISK efficiency when trying to grind out ISK.

EVE is like rock paper scissors but a lot more complicated. If you are outnumbered or have the wrong fitting for a specific fight, then it was over before the fight even began.
Bad fits are fits that can handle no situation, or handle a situation in an underwhelming fashion. Genius here is pissed off because my fit was so good it managed to screw his friends over for a month. It's a particularly painful point because the ship is loaded with warp core stabs, which basically negate someones attempt to warp scramble you but make it so you can't target anything or fight back.
No one in their right mind fits a pvp ship with warp core stabs, thats like the worst fit ever! Or so the elitist paper pvp'rs would tell you, except I didn't need to target anything though, just drop orbitals. And I didn't need to fight back because my drones would do that for me the moment these clowns took any hostile action. And they always did. For a month straight. |

Currently scouts can survive longer than any opponent in the game due to radar+visual concealment, total situational awareness and first mover advantage.
I would probably be rocking advanced the majority of the time as a novice, and switch to proto when i got good at it. |

Well when you are running proto with 6 other proto players in a communicating and organised squad, tanks fit to competitive level play....against newberries, unsquadded, disorganised players with poorly fit vehicles...... thats not surprising..... and don't tell me this is just a precaution in case of high level competition, if you were out for high level competitive play DNS would not have the top 5 corporations composing its donut......

Once upon a time there was a poor scrublet named Himiko (this would be a good place to end the story for most but I'll keep going).
Himiko played on keyboard and mouse, because rawr PC gaming. He noticed this game had a terrible frame rate and there wasn't a lot of hit detection consistency, and from a competitive standpoint this pissed him off too much to bother with CQC. So he decided to become a sniper because it seemed like a less frustrating way to preserve KDR and make money as threats were limited in scope (hur hur, get it?).
Once he had around 15-20 mil or so, he decided he wanted to experience more parts of the game outside of being a head glitching jerkoff. So he went from one extreme to another and jumped into a heavy suit with an HMG to get up close and personal. These suits were expensive, but then, if times were tough he could always fall back to sniping right?
Well here's the thing kids. Times never got tough. I raped, pillaged and plundered fifty thousand corpses and I'll keep on going for another fifty thousand more. A while afterwards I got picked up by some reputable gentlemen who noticed there was a lone figure still standing at the end of the long trail of broken dreams and whiny adolescents.
Then, when uprising came out, everything changed. My suits got cheaper. A lot cheaper. Suddenly I was allowed to die more than twice in a match and still make a profit.
And that's how Himiko saved Christmas.
Wait, what was this thread about? |

New Eden's economy runs on an isk-to-tear conversion table. For every amount of isk that is lost and/or stolen, a certain amount of tears are produced and inserted into the economy.
Without these tears being readily available for consumption there is a severe shortage of motivation to work, play, converse, or engage in sexual activities.
It is therefore imperative that you lose isk. Preferably to me. |

Unlike you, i do not treat this game like a life or death situation, i hv more importing things to deal with in life than dealing with the drama i see. sure i like to win, but there is no harm in having fun while doing it. if i want to troll proto guys like you with knives and the likes, dnt be mad about it, especially if ypu are on a deathstreak by some guy in a militia suit because you make some mistakes. i try to keep a positive attitude for everyone to enjoy the game as i care about the rest of the community and what they feel about the situation. you can try and throw insults at me like an immature kid if ypu do so. its not gonna help you much anyway. everyone has their ways to play the game so i see no issue in militia guys. dumb blueberrys however.....

Your a mercanary, your job is whatever younwant it to be. This holds no relevance to the gear used however.
My Adv Minmatar Fit 2x Extenders 1x Energizer 1x Plate 1x Repper
1x BK-42 ACR 1x M1204 ASMG
EHP: 480 Cost: 45,000 Isk
My Frontline Amarr Fit 2x Extender 1x BK-42 ACR 1x M1204 ASMG
EHP: 490 Cost 10,000 Isk
This means on average I am permitted to loose just 5 Adv suits before going ISK negative, while I can loose 20 frontline suits and still be in tne black. Assuming an even match that comes down to about 5 clones left, you are looking at 9 deaths per person not accounting for snipers or logis who tip this scale.
So if Im about to run into a Squad of stompers where Im likely to die 10+ times because Im 1 of 5 people not AFKing do I run the expensive suit with lower survivability or the cheap frontline? Also you still fail to account for fights either side where you don't see the person.
Although I feel, your entire purpose was just to troll everyonr, in which thanks sucker, because my first statement is worth 20+ likes.
Unless your a Computer Scientist don't tell me how Game Mechanics Work.

In reality the majority of the player don't own BPOs or get payed a handsome amount of isk every PC or weekly paycheck. These players tend to use militia to make more isk than they would running std or adv gear.
The real question is, why make 50k isk per match after expenses when you can make 150 to 300k per match by not investing a single isk.
I do this myself since I don't own a full set of milita BPOs; something I regret not buying to this day, although I do own a dren and a covenant pack, they dont supply all the modules necesary to be a complete fit. when I dont feel like rushing isk into my wallet for my various experiments I just run drens o covenants or std and adv gears.

So realistically, it can be said that if you run cheap all the time you're really just being a horrible person. *facepalm* guys...dunno how to respond to this interesting logic.... Tell me how you really feel. Do you feel you have an obligation to try your best to win, within reason? Or are you of the mentality that you have no obligation to your team and everybody can go **** themselves? Your a mercanary, your job is whatever younwant it to be. This holds no relevance to the gear used however. My Adv Minmatar Fit 2x Extenders 1x Energizer 1x Plate 1x Repper 1x BK-42 ACR 1x M1204 ASMG EHP: 480 Cost: 45,000 Isk My Frontline Amarr Fit 2x Extender 1x BK-42 ACR 1x M1204 ASMG EHP: 490 Cost 10,000 Isk This means on average I am permitted to loose just 5 Adv suits before going ISK negative, while I can loose 20 frontline suits and still be in tne black. Assuming an even match that comes down to about 5 clones left, you are looking at 9 deaths per person not accounting for snipers or logis who tip this scale. So if Im about to run into a Squad of stompers where Im likely to die 10+ times because Im 1 of 5 people not AFKing do I run the expensive suit with lower survivability or the cheap frontline? Also you still fail to account for fights either side where you don't see the person. Although I feel, your entire purpose was just to troll everyonr, in which thanks sucker, because my first statement is worth 20+ likes.
I don't think you properly understand what it means to be a mercenary.
They aren't supposed to be paying you to try and lose. If losing was the goal, they wouldn't be paying anybody anything.
Also I think you are further confused as to how winning is achieved. Getting likes on the forum does not cause victory. See, nothing is popping up on the game telling you that you won because somebody liked your post.
I do find it valuable information however, that most people seem to believe they will lose an average of 350k for running advanced suits. That's pretty poor player performance I have to say.
If it's really true, I can only assume that standard equipment is indeed the only way for you guys to remain profitable. Kind of sad, but there it is I guess. I suppose the most logical thing to do would be to simply quit Dust altogether as there is clearly no hope of ever actually attaining good equipment and using it correctly for profit, let alone actually contributing to a win. You're really just letting everyone around you down, and that's not really acceptable if you have a conscience. You do have a conscience, right? Might be better off with Halo where all equipment is equal. That would be a lot less stressful and you might contribute more. |

I've always found it odd too. I've always run the best gear I had skills for. STD gear is just so much better than MLT gear and is still dirt cheap. When I see people using MLT gear I feel like they deserve to be protostomped.
Get some real gear!!! |

Is this due to

B) Stupidity and lack of awareness that better equipment improves your odds of winning?
C) Stupidity and lack of balls concerning the fear of loss?
D) Stupidity and WHY ARE YOU DRIVING AWAY LET ME IN YOUR TANK DURRRRRRRRRRRRRRR looking over your eve online fits, i'm not certain you're the guy to be calling people stupid. Show me them please. okay, but it's not going to be pretty. one sec. http://eve.battleclinic.com/killboard/killmail.php?id=21614834if anyone has every seen a worse domi fit, please let me know. That domi fit successfully held off 5+ pilots simultaneously for more than a month straight because they were too scared to risk anything larger than a T1 frigate. It also managed to drop orbitals at the same time. It was a super situational fit for a situational opponent that had to do many things at once, and I dare say it's an incredibly good fit for that situation. If you want to talk trash, that's fine. My team needed orbital support and I had one account available to provide it with. I did it with the one ship using the one fit that could. If you want to talk trash about it, let's go into how long it took for your guys to actually grow a pair and do something about it?
after that we can talk about how you ride my pilot's coat tails now :P

You are saying they're idiots for not wanting to lose money fighting against teams that WILL have proto in them.
There is no logic here that computes. Calling people out on what they want to afford is absurd, we all value ISK differently. Do not force your perspectives on others.
If you wish to avoid being on bad teams - Qsync. That's what HvLP does.

I went 24/13 in all standard fits and made money. It's not about the Militia fits. SP sunk into passives and proficiencies is the real disadvantage for new players. Or specialized alts. I only use proto when I click the wrong fit when I want to up my game to an advanced.
Oh, except my forge gun. Standard AV is like using a balloon slingshot full of Tickle-Me Elmos.
