That's pretty much what the Cal heavy's gonna look like in hotfix charlie now. Glad I didn't spec into it like I was going to.
I'd definitely either downgrade the sidearm or change one of the energizers to a recharger, so you could fit an extra shield reg in that new low slot you're getting.
And it's unquestionable now that you're going to need a shield extender instead of a damage mod.
Oh and by the way? They can't even afford to fit a grenade now.
Anyone skilled into Cal Sent willing to weigh in on the situation?
I want a respec.
You could get 729 shields, but at 50 rep rate, my assault has 600 shields...cal heavy needed a buff, not a nerf...
Max level brony.

Actually I just found out all the sentinels are losing a slot across the boards. You're losing a high slot. Yeah, I'm pretty much quitting this game because CCP stealth nerfed heavies.
Don't amarr get 4 highs?

now we get 1 high 3 low. and a massive fitting nerf
do you realize i'm going to have to spend over a million SP just to be able to use the suit that i've already spent tens of millions of SP on?
AND we're being nerfed? i've had it with this crap.
goodbye dust hello destiny
Goodbye heavies hello assaults.
Well, to be fair, j was going to do that anyways.

You know what I'd do with a respec? Dump it all into Minjas and lol knife everything. That would just be like, the biggest rush after being a SLOW, HEAVY, EASY TARGET FOR 8 MONTHS. No... Melee everything. That's what I'd do.
It really is fun.
But, get an assault asap, proto the crap out of it.

Caldari sentinels need two lows for a armor rep and a regulator...complete bullshit.
BTW, if you're going to leave this game then get off the forums and stop spamming threads. If you have something constructive to say, join the conversation in the stickied threads, otherwise please leave. ^THIS  I am level 3 Cal sentinal and really looking forward to the 3/2 layout actually...Im thinking I might now just go all the way to level 5. Your setups are all wrong dude..In this fit I would run 1 Cmplx shield ext, 1 Cmplx Dmg mod, 1 enh shield energiser, 1 complx kin cat and 1 cmplx rep.. now my Sentinal has 1 less damage mod but is a whole lot faster..
Meanwhile, my assault has 600 shields, 50 reps per second, and isn't fat.
Meanwhile, my proto heavy has 700 shields, 50 reps, fat, slow, in hf charlie.

..but has a HMG which has an effective range of 52.5m lol or a Forge gun on a tower with even more range!? Exactly
Still not necessary to nerf the high slot, I don't firge infantry.
I needed 810 shields and my 50 rep rate just so I don't get instablabbed by the armor heavies, who could have reps btw, and I have to have relatively low hp for a giant hitbox to get hp/s.

youd recharge 345.93 shields by the time you finished reloading the HMG lol
Burst, not sure if it will beat a boundless...but whatever I'll try it, on a suit with 152 more shields than my assault with a bigger hitbox and slow speed.

you arent losing a slot, its being changed, caldari will have an extra low so you can fit some armour or whatever you want to it.
Which. Is. Bullshit.
Amarr are primary armor tanker, 1/4
Caldari wre preimary shield tankers, yet 3/2
Wtf, and same layout as minmatar.

I need 1 more level if dropsuit electronics aka 744k sp to get it which needs to be toned down btw. I gues I'll use an adv weapon and gimp myself further in cqc... the burst isnt meant for multiple targets though. its been redesigned to destroy single targets, particularly targets that are being repped. so im thinking itd be good for popping in and out from behind cover. its keeps you out of the line of fire while dealing extreme damage with each burst. itll be interesting to see how it actually hndles when charlie finally hits release
Which I hope is no later than next week.

DeathwindRising wrote:this just in: CCP Rattati wrote:All of you who have pointed out the Cal sentinel slot layout. Thanks.
During the slot layout discussion (40 pages), we were debating the "universal" matrix, and the fact that 5 slot Caldari suits had differing needs. Specifically the Caldari scout needed 2 slots to be able to dampen properly like the other 3. The discussion went back and forth, and into whether double regulators in low or an armor rep woudn't be a solid choice for CA sentinels.
The final result was to go back to 4-1, and make the CA scout exception to the universal matrix, and footnote it for everyone to remember why that happened. And then we (or I to take the blame) forgot to make that change because the 3-2 argument was pretty good.
All that said and done, we are reverting the CA sentinels to 4-1, effective immediately.
Again, thanks everyone.
Please don't be trolling.
Alright, nm.

They don't.
630 base shields 400 armor vs 275 shields and 155 armor, for caldari.
