Wouldn't be surprised if CCP's favorite has some super resits.

Eyewitness accounts are shoddy at best, and I'd rather blame this occurrence on glitches/poor hit detection rather than some ultra conspiracy about the Caldari having some special kind of shield hardener the other races don't have.

This shouldn't be a thing. If you find out more let CCP know Ill keep tabs for this then.

Agreed . I used and use the suits myself and just did not notice any advantages over any other suit or weapons , I've herd people claiming that Caldari light suits can strafe better and now this .

Whatever ... they have no advantage over any other suit and dies just as fast as most .

Waste time figuring this out or you can inform CCP on implementing fixes for bugs and such IWS , also fixing the stats for the Caldari basic heavies as well .

Stop trolling
Your last thread had qq from the caldari stuff

Combination of the dropsuit model, strafe irregularity, and hit detection.

The give away was the AR.
Strafe speeds are always maxed in this game. Thats why heavies cant hop more than 3 inches front to back but can jump 12 to the left or the right.

Strafing in a light suit. Who'da thought?

I believe that it has something to do with hit detection as well because like I said , I use the suits and still die in an fashion similar to any other light or scout suit and I use Gal scouts as well so I would notice any difference but if you yourself and others can actually confirm this then that evidence can not be rebuked but until they fix the hit detection as with using sniper rifles ... then anything done or said does not really have a strong foundation .

One instance you might get the results that you claim and another or someone else may find otherwise so the fact that you have a known variable namely , hit detection ... then the results will be unstable or irregular until the problem is fixed .

I play games where I'm point blank with a HMG and a Gal scout can run right at me and not strafe and shotgun me while I'm firing and I notice that my bullets are not registering , other times it works just fine but to have a HMG in comparison to an AR and stand at point blank range and bullets are not registering shows a hit detection problem .

I just do not snipe like I use to because of the same , some games it works when others it just doesn't and I can be dead on and nothing .

Hit detection needs to be addressed .

I've heard the same thing.

I've never noticed it.

I use CR and ScR primarily, and I've not noticed CalScout being particularly hard to kill -once I hit him.
They're typically harder to hit than Gal, who often have plates fitted, and have higher HP totals than Minmatar, because of different roles, and the regen makes them a pain to kill.

But them taking too little damage? This isn't something I've noticed, no.

Since you say explosives are affected by this it is very easy to test. Find a supply depot in the redline and simply drop a grenade at the feet of your cal light 20 times, recording how much damage you take each time. If you want to be super scientific switch to a different light suit and repeat the test as a 'control'.

Just tested myself on cal scout alt:

Suit: scout C/1-series with level 3 Caldari scout, 308hp shield, 174hp armour

Test: stood on standard locus grenade rated at 400hp explosive damage ten times

Results: same outcome each time, shield removed and 4 notches of armour damage (about 10%)

Analysis: explosive does 80% damage versus shield, so it will take 96.25% of the 400 explosive damage to wipe out the shield on my C/1-series; explosive does 120% damage versus armour, so the remaining 3.75% of the 400 explosive damage will do 18 armour damage, about 10% of total armour

Conclusion: from this limited testing the caldari scout seems to take explosive damage as advertised
