In fact my proposal is no different from how vehicle skills are currently. That's my complaint about proto suits that they offer benefits that aren't marginal for a much higher cost.
what would those benefits be? because i think they are rather underpowered for the isk they cost. i do better in my standard, Assault G-1 vs other standard suits than i do in my prototype, Assault Gk.0 against other prototypes. sometimes i'll even lose to an advanced suit in a prototype suit. i think adding an additional slot or two is nowhere near enough to make up for a prototype's isk cost. they need something more
yet, i do agree that dedicated players deserve higher rewards. i like the fact that my Gallente Assault Lv 5 abilities carry over to my Assault G-1 and Assault G/1-series, not just my Gk.0.
im not understanding whether you are saying that Proto suits are Overpowered, or Underpowered.

if two meet who are of the same playing skill and are both Lv 5 in the same suit, but one is running a standard suit while the other is wearing a prototype, the prototyle should win. same result if the guy running standard is instead running advanced, since every other factor is the same.
in that case, isk wins over sp investment and gun game.
if two meet and one is a lv 1 while the other is a lv 3 of the same suit, the lv 3 is going to win. unless the X-1 has a higher gun game level.
in that case, gun game beats sp/isk investment.
there are so many scenarios i could go over, but the point is, you cant balance isk cost, sp investment and "gun game" perfectly. plus, who is anybody to say, for example, that "gun game" is better than Sp investment? or that sp cost is greater than isk investment, or anything like that? there are so many circumstances and so many other factors to take into consideration. playstyle, preferred weapons, distance between opponents, map, whether there is cover nearby to hide behind, is there fight, or flight going on, is ita 1 v 1 fight or 6 v 3? what about the other players if its not 1 v 1?? whats their playstyles, distances, sp levels, ect.

lolno. Skill > SP > Gear. It's how DUST has always been.
you didnt get what i said, did you. i said two players of the same playing level and sp investment. in other words, all factors are the same except for the suits being used.
