sabre prime Crux Special Tasks Group Gallente Federation 281	Posted - 2014.07.02 21:38:00 - [1] - Quote Dear mercs, What are the best heavy suits currently in the game? I'm thinking of giving in to the temptation and spending some SP to officially become a fat boy. Considerations would have to include the commando role as well. I will only skill one racial heavy branch of the skill tree. Not spending more SP than that. I have a bias toward gallente and minmatar, and I'm a CR lover. So what's the best fatty? All opinions appreciated. Desperate attempt to get BPOs

Nothing has power over you but your own fear.
Arkena Wyrnspire Fatal Absolution 15101	Posted - 2014.07.02 21:45:00 - [4] - Quote That depends. The Gallente and Amarr sentinels are excellent at bricking. I'd lean more towards the Gallente sentinel for that. The Caldari sentinel is more self-sufficient because it can actually heal itself properly. The Minmatar sentinel... is pretty fun. As the fastest heavy, if you put kincats on it you can actually move at quite a rate. I think it's possible to run down assaults if you kincat it. You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake. Polka will never die.
Aero Yassavi Praetoriani Classiarii Templares Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris 8692	Posted - 2014.07.02 21:48:00 - [5] - Quote Amarr Commando is the best fat suit. It's main strength comes from out ranging all rifles with the laser rifle which becomes absolutely deadly with the racial bonus, and tear people to shreds up close with the assault scrambler, and can fit a high amount of EHP while still being able to move around. Amarr are the good guys Their way of the Commando seems right and noble
Zindorak CaUsE-4-CoNcErN 35	Posted - 2014.07.02 21:48:00 - [6] - Quote Gallente is probably the best then Ammar. Use Caldari for a dedicated Forge fit. Use the Minmatar sentinel....................for fun
Zelda Harkinian Isuuaya Tactical Caldari State 16	Posted - 2014.07.02 21:49:00 - [7] - Quote I think the Caldari heavy looks pretty cute. Kind of like a metal puffy cloud.
Atiim Fooly Cooly. 10134	Posted - 2014.07.02 22:18:00 - [8] - Quote Allow me to help narrow the choices down for you: How "social" are you? If you find yourself joining squads often, then chances are a Logistics unit will be following you often as well. This means that you don't have to worry about being as self-sufficient as possible, as you'll most likely have support. As such, you'd be more effective with an Amarr or Gallente Sentinel If you find yourself to be more of a "solo" player, then chances are a Logistics unit will not be supporting you. As such, you need to be as self sufficient as possible (or you won't perform well). In this case, you'd be more effective with a Minmatar or Caldari Sentinel. What is your playstyle? If your a "Stand-and-Deliver" type of player, the Amarr Sentinel will suit you best. If your a "Defensive, but Pushy" type of player, the Gallente Sentinel will suit you best. If your a "Back-In-Action ASAP" type of player, the Caldari Sentinel will suit you best. If your a "Speedy" and/or "Flanking" type of player, the Matari Sentinel will suit you best. What is your HP & Speed Preferences? if you prefer HP, the favorable sentinel choices are in this order: Gallente Sentinel Amarr Sentinel Caldari Sentinel Matari Sentinel If you prefer Speed, the favorable Sentinel choices are in this order: Matari Sentinel Caldari Sentinel \| Gallente Sentinel Amarr Sentinel How "good" are you? It should be noted, that the Shielded Sentinels are more difficult to use than the Armored Sentinels. This is due to the fact that you still move -relatively- slow while having a large hit-box, and the lack of eHP (in comparison) means that you have to be a quick thinker with good reflexes to survive ((That's not to say however, that the Armored Sentinels are for inexperience players however. It's just me stating that there is a higher difficulty curve with the Shielded Sentinels)). -HAND AVers: The Most Persistent Playerbase in DUST 514 -HAND
Rynoceros Rise Of Old Dudes 4127	Posted - 2014.07.02 22:40:00 - [9] - Quote Caldari - with a FG, is the best for AV Minmatar - best Heavy to use with a Rifle Gallente - the HP tank Amarr - a good mix of Armor and added DPS. A well-balanced, versatile fitting. (And the only one I don't currently have.) Your choice. PSN: The_Rynoceros Destiny beta SoonGäó Console Master Race
sabre prime Crux Special Tasks Group Gallente Federation 282	Posted - 2014.07.02 22:43:00 - [10] - Quote Thanks for the detailed response Atiim. I think my initial instincts were close, I'm going gallente or minmatar. I like to brick and push at the frontline so gallente maybe. But, but I also like speed and flanking, so minmatar looks good. I try to squad up as much as possible, so tanking might not be that essential, if a logi is around. The minmatar will also give me some high slots for damage mods. The minmatar commando bonus will also complement my vast selection of proficiency 3 combat rifles. :) Gallente sentinel and minmatar commando seems to match my playstyle best Desperate attempt to get BPOs

Arcturis Vanguard Red Star. EoN. 145	Posted - 2014.07.03 00:10:00 - [11] - Quote I'm an amarr sent. Reason I went amarr was because with racial bonus maxed, the suit nullifies full proficiency on hmg (projectile). Gallente sent only blocks 10%. Also amarr can stack 2 complex damage mods where gal only has one. So in my eyes the amarr is superior to the gallente until a logi is involved and then it just depends on ehp, which class is repping and head shots put in with hmg. I usually run reps, kin kats and enegizers when solo (which is more often then not) and wreck most heavies. That build has less ehp then base ;) Amarr Heavy V Amarr Assault V Caldari Scout V Caldari logistic IV Prof V HMG & FORGE Prof IV CR, SMG Prof III ScR

Thurak1 Psygod9 805	Posted - 2014.07.03 03:48:00 - [13] - Quote I play 2 different heavies a cal and a gal. When i know i am going to be in the middle of a lot of firefights often and especially if i have logi support i play gal. They have better armor and there is no rep tool for shields so its better for me and the logi supporting me. When i am playing larger mostly outdoor maps i play cal for the speed and i pick my fights more especially if i am running in a squad without a logi.
Nocturnal Soul Immortal Retribution 3397	Posted - 2014.07.03 04:14:00 - [14] - Quote FG-Cal CqC-Amarr/Gal Speed-Matar Its alright everyone, no need to worry it's just an Amarr scout :(

Cody Sietz SVER True Blood Dirt Nap Squad. 3454	Posted - 2014.07.03 04:34:00 - [16] - Quote Got a Logi? Plug it into a Gallente! Super mobile heavy take can move from engagement to engagement? Caldari! Wanna use a MLT frame only? Try Minmatar! Want to do everything better then all the heavies listed above AND beat every heavy in a 1v1? That would be Amarr. Amarr is hands down the best heavy, no ifs ands or buts. They also have the best Assault and Logi(don't to mention a amazing rifle that they will always say is UP for some reason) "I do agree with you there though. shudders" -Arkena Wyrnspire

This or you can Gal CMDO like me :3 Wherever the Wind (Aero) might take me, may it ever be True, for the way of the Commando is noble and right.
LT SHANKS Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 2858	Posted - 2014.07.03 05:58:00 - [18] - Quote Amarr Sentinel with 2x complex damage mods, 3 complex plates, minlogi with core focused reptool and hives, and a Six Kin Burst HMG. None shall pass.
Hakyou Brutor G0DS AM0NG MEN 822	Posted - 2014.07.03 07:47:00 - [19] - Quote Minmatar heavy! Like a scout with a motherfluxing HMG! "I never pull out" ~Ace Boone, 2014.

But looks like fatsuits are bread and butter for anything carrying a bolt pistol. Joel II X wrote: Best fat suit, is a dead fat suit. Agreed. In the end I never did skill into the fatties. I'm a one suit guy I guess. The slow blade penetrates the shield.
