Is it worth the money? I tend to run budget suits since Im mostly solo, in good games they work out just fine. 20% of the time on the losing end of a gunfight, Its just that last hit that takes me out. I can live with that since its only minimal loss.
Building a proto assault suit for when I feel like cautiously blowing money (if that just don't make sense), and wondering if its worth losing the 45k isk whenever the inevitable happens, or should I be a little sensible knowing that I can do just fine with at least a gek, or is the duvolle just that much meaner.
I budget my isk well but I'd hate to be so determined to take on "sometimes" the impossible that I forget I'm burning through way more than I'm gonna make back. |

A advanced Gek 38 with proficiency 3 and sharpshooter 3 will tear up clones just as fast. Add on a damage mod, or two and it will really melt. I only use a standard Toxin AR with prof 3, Sharpshooter, reload, ammo all at 3. It is great for all occasion's.
kinda what I wanted to hear, I have prof to 4 and run complex mod usually run the gek the rare times I run around with adv suit. Kinda felt maybe I'd want to protect a proto suit with a proto weapon, and maybe luck out during the often occurrence of trying to rambo a group of 3 dudes alone instead of running like a smart sissy |

It's a good weapon, but it sounds like you need a corp bro. Find a corp where the members work with you, and you won't have so many handicap matches where you are on the latter end of a three on one?!
I know, but then again its a sense of accomplishment the rare game when you hit the top of the nooberboard by yourself. Or the times when you can communicate with a group of strangers with no comms, only digital stares, but figured out a way to co-operate together just for that one game and win. Kinda cool coming across random acts of comrade-ery. But, I agree I need to find a corp. |

Hindsight being what it is, I wish I would've skilled into the combat rifle first, bare bones w no proficiency it has more power it seems than my maxed out AR. Without having tried duvolle yet. Guess I'll grind for more sp and work on CR. The six kin in republic store is pretty cheap for a proto weapon. Wont bother me as much to lose it. Oh well just picked up a few duvolle's if they don't turn me on then lesson learned. |

someone recommended that earlier, I'm def gonna check it out. Guess i need to grind for some federation lp. Its really the only way to justify the cost of proto gear. Now is there ever games where its gal vs min and would it affect the standings between the two? |

Well my RR must have a defect cause I can't use that thing. Poss if I skilled into it higher it might be better but I do decent with gek, and if duvolle is a step up I'll buy it with LP. Still haven't used the few I paid 45k for, maybe I should, the money is already spent. |
