bamboo x Eternal Beings Proficiency V. 831	Posted - 2014.08.11 20:29:00 - [1] - Quote So you might be wondering, with this CPU/PG nerf, what should I skill into to get the most out of my fittings? Well, you might as well spend the SP right now on taking heavy weapon operation from 3 to 5 if you haven't already. It'll be crucial, especially for Forge Guns. And although it doesn't seem like much to get an extra 1% CPU and PG from taking your Dropsuit Core Upgrades from 4 to 5, if your Sentinel has as much PG as the Amarr you'll wind up increasing your PG by 1 (which is crucial) and you're only getting an extra 3 CPU, it'll be worth it. Especially if you don't have your sidearm proficiency to 5 which gives access to your sidearm fitting optimization. http://www.protofits.com/fittings/shared/337/6443 For my fitting, the Scrambler Pistol is where I'll have to spend my SP - on sidearm operation for that extra CPU and eventually scrambler pistol fitting optimization. This means that although Sentinels will get an inherent 15% bonus to CPU and PG at proto level, you'd still be better off spending it on your ScP because it actually takes up more CPU and PG than the HMG does after you take off that 15%. I'm not too knowledgeable about the fitting requirements of other sidearms, but I took a look at the SMG, which for some insane reason requires less CPU than a ScP and the post-Sentinel bonus HMG. But it still has more PG, so you'll definitely benefit the most from your sidearm fitting optimization, as you can use your sidearm on both HMG and Forge Gun fits. Which brings me to the coup de gras. It's going to be a rough time for Forge Gunners especially if you're a more HMG-focused Sentinel. That Forge uses a TON of fitting space and in general is going to make them weaker until they take the time to diligently skill every single fitting book up to 5... *Eternal Beings* - #76 in All Time WP - #90 in All Time Kills.

Oh, the humanity. No, Arkena. It's going to mean I can't use AV grenades and probably downgrade my sidearm. I'll make a fitting in a minute and update you. Calm your *****.

I'll update the OP with a new paragraph about it right now. *Eternal Beings* - #76 in All Time WP - #90 in All Time Kills. Member since day one, 10 months ago.

If this post is meant to be informative, you should thank him for doing you a favor. No, it comes off as rude. It's not our fault CCP attempted to bait us all into skilling into heavies with the easy fitting requirements. I didn't choose it for that purpose, and I find it offensive that you think we expect being a Sentinel to be easy mode. Not all of us are FOTM chasers and game exploiters. And to be completely honest my Logi doesn't have a problem fitting everything proto because he has too many module slots. So your fitting problems must've been a Scout and Assault exclusive problem. Don't speak for Logis if you're not even using one. *Eternal Beings* - #76 in All Time WP - #90 in All Time Kills. Member since day one, 10 months ago.

Let me show you an example of what you're claiming: [Logistics] Boundless CR* As you can see, every single module is at the Prototype/Complex tier, and the Character is maxed (272m SP). I even took the liberty of placing a Specialist CR (the easiest-to-fit rifle in DUST), and Reactive Plates (lower CPU/PG than the base variants, but decent buffer and HP/s in Charlie). The suit is still 40 CPU and 13 PG over the limit. I don't remember speaking for Logistics users in this thread, but I've been a Logi for over a year now. Look. I'm not talking about making my Logi a perfect, module stacking killing machine. http://www.protofits.com/fittings/shared/337/6463 This is my scanner fit. I was talking about I have every slot except one proto without even having any fitting optimization skills. For me that fitting has 503/507 CPU and 114/115 PG. So as you can see, my Gal Logi has NO trouble fitting everything proto, because I'm not focused on MODULES, I'm focused on EQUIPMENT and using that equipment as efficiently as possible. It quite honestly wouldn't be worth it to me to skill into Assault Rifle Fitting Optimizaiton, because what's 15% of the 6 PG the Federation Specialist gets? Hardly even 1 PG for all that SP? Maybe the option not to run Gallente anymore and use the ISK Duvolle instead? No thanks. *Eternal Beings* - #76 in All Time WP - #90 in All Time Kills. Member since day one, 10 months ago.

Go back and look at the post I JUST MADE BEFORE YOURS. http://www.protofits.com/fittings/shared/337/6463 There's only one slot missing that's not being used. Every other slot has a proto module in it. *Eternal Beings* - #76 in All Time WP - #90 in All Time Kills. Member since day one, 10 months ago.

You can fit : (ill write, cant post protofits link on my phone) Amarr sentiniel Ak.0 2x complex plates 2x complex repps 1x complex dmg mod Boundless HMG Six Kin SMG flux. Everything proto. Flux is flux, makes no differnce. Running 2 complex reps with your HMG is for Pub matches. You might want one for some extra assurance in case your Logi dies or you want that extra kick when a Min Logi isn't around, but... No. Plates over damage mod any day of the week. And as I said in the OP, for some screwed up reason SMGs take up less CPU than ScPs, with the same PG. *Eternal Beings* - #76 in All Time WP - #90 in All Time Kills.

bamboo x Eternal Beings Proficiency V. 837	Posted - 2014.08.13 02:32:00 - [10] - Quote Well, I think if I was a no-life douche who wanted to throw something like a shield recharger or precision enhancer that doesn't take up any PG, I could skill into things like Light Weapons Operation and Explosives to get the extra CPU, if it's even possible to get enough to fit a proto one. Matter of fact I think I do have one that's got a basic shield energizer or something... Hold on and I'll find it. *Eternal Beings* - #76 in All Time WP - #90 in All Time Kills.

bamboo x Eternal Beings Proficiency V. 839	Posted - 2014.08.13 19:14:00 - [11] - Quote Update now that Charlie's dropped. Here's what heavies will have to do now. I've spent around 3/4 of a million SP to get that fitting with 335/335 CPU and 76/76 PG. Basically you keep the complex mod, you stack four plates, and you use a basic flux. No need for the pro flux. I basically did exactly what I said in my previous posts with the Forge fit, except on my damage mod one I downgraded my ScP to a iA5 Tactical, with a Wyrkomi AV, 2 reps and 1 plate. I'll update you guys as I get my more detailed fittings worked out, but for now it looks like I only need to take my Sidearm Operation to level 2. *Eternal Beings* - #76 in All Time WP - #90 in All Time Kills.

Had room for the switch between DMG mod and Complex plate. I will have to update this in game when I log in. You're gonna want to get that HMG proficiency to 5 and put a point or two in fitting optimization because it'll let you use a pro SMG or a better flux. I can see you've already got some spare CPU to help you with it. Right now I'm kind of in a bind whether or not I want to dump any more SP into my heavy fitting. I'll probably do it on forge guns because quite honestly I've already spent almost a mil on pro grenades and I've spent 3/4 of a mil on hotfix charlie sentinels... Not sure I really want to sacrifice any more SP just for a ***** flux grenade. But I could possibly get myself another proto module if I put some points into Forge fitting optimization and things like Sidearm Operation.
