Shield suits will not be able to run or hide when this comes out because of the range and power of a charge shot+volley from a viziam.
Armor stacking will be the only form of survival.
-Crazy theories by Gav
(Just like when i said Cal scouts would be OP post bravo) IT a good theory, but invalidated by the fact HMG's,RR and Combat rifles dont give a s**t about how much armor you are packing.....CR/RR>Amarr assault + sCR > Shield based suits > CR/RRits a cycle Balanced. No it isn't Scr nearly 5 shots all shueld based med frames ir scouts no matter the shields they stack it's insta win, aka op.
Never have I lost to a shield suit with my scr unless I'm using a low hp suit and they come from behind with a cr.

Well,never have i lost vs a Armor suit with my Six kin ACR either .... and it doesnt even have the CPU-PG requirements NOR the overheat threat of the SCR rifle. The ttk on shield suits is just way to low, they don't have 1% chance of winning 1v1, aka op.
Something needed to be done vs shields, as long as the scr maintains its shield damage, shields will always be up, unless we get an armor version of the scr.

I don't know what about the changes makes you worried shield-tanking will be disproportionately negatively effected.
Amarr assault currently is on par with non-cal scouts and non-gal/am heavies All other assaults are not. Amarr assault gets equal buffs to all other assaults. Amarr assault remains best assault and becomes FoTM=more common on the field=shield tankers get more screwed. ^^Thats how i came to my conclusion I reject the premise of the Amarr assault being currently so far ahead of other assaults, and on par with a bunch of scouts and sentinels. Has the same slot count as other assaults of the same tier, slightly more base HP but at the cost of speed. The only thing I can think of that truly gives the Amarr assault an arguably unfair advantage is the PG/CPU. It could be argued that Amarr and Minmatar assault are better because they're the only ones with useful bonuses or their weapons, but CCP Rattati has better bonuses on his to-do list. When damage mods get their buff, tell me that this will be balanced-- http://www.protofits.com/fittings/shared/0/6077 Remove the grenade and put an armor rep and a shield extender or something.

JONAHBENHUR wrote:shield tanking in the game has always been one of the hardest things to do. the first weapons had stronger affect on shields, the massive cpu and pg requirements with little hp return and as the game progressed the most OP weapon ever the scrambler rifle just melting people. Shield tankers will not experience anything new some will over come, but most have a back up armor tank suit by now. I don't have a singke armor suit specced into...cal sent, scout, and assault proto.

No it isn't Scr nearly 5 shots all shueld based med frames ir scouts no matter the shields they stack it's insta win, aka op.

Have u not seen the omnipotent RR. ...problem solved Proto rr vs scr 500 armor suit. I get instaganked and get 3 shots off or so before I die.
