Alain Le Victorious The-Devil's-Rejects 22	Posted - 2014.11.20 19:54:00 - [1] - Quote I played this game since chrome as a heavy, and all these nerfs are not making any sense. 1. you nerf the damage the HMG does to shields, which turns out to make a Cal Sent the hardest one to kill with the HMG 2. you buff the over heat time, so that way we over heat even faster, you can barely hold down the trigger now maybe kill 3 people then you have to let go. All these nerfs are so annoying I can barely get any kills the only place right now a heavy is any use is Dom since ccp nerfed there range, and there damage twice. The only people who were complaining about the heavy's being to overpowered were scouts and people in militia gear. I am a heavy that no one really knows but I only use adv gear in pubs so that way people will not yell at me for using proto. Sometimes the kill charts show a heavy getting the most kills because people wouldnt stop throwing themselves at you. Is there anyone else who feels like heavy's are just being targeted because everyone thinks it takes no skill to play them, and would like ccp to stop nerfing the heavy to a useless piece of armor on the battle field.

I used to use the basic HMG, now I use the advanced in order to offset the heat build up. So now I just wipe people out faster-not a friendly nerf.
Alain Le Victorious The-Devil's-Rejects 23	Posted - 2014.11.20 20:01:00 - [7] - Quote you can't even kill an entrie squad anymore only about 3 of them before it over heats, the sad thing is i bet this is only the begging of more nerfs to come towards the heavy's way.

Cal Sent has the second lowest EHP, even against projectiles. It's my fault FA exists. Direct your rage to me.
Jynx'D Heaven's Lost Property Negative-Feedback 39	Posted - 2014.11.20 20:04:00 - [13] - Quote As a heavy of 2 years plus, I have to disagree with OP. HMG, even at the standard level, is incredibly strong in it's optimal. It can down 4-5 people, easily, if it just plays smart and doesn't let the DPS stack against them. The increased heat build up makes it so heavies have to think a little more then just, "Oh, look, a bunch of reds!~ CHARGE!~" Because your gun will over-heat, meaning you can't just spray and pray, you will need cover or support to chill your fire down for a second to keep in the fight longer. It was a great move imo in creating balance for the heavy.

I kill, wait if I can, kill, wait... you get it. Heavies are OP as FCK and I run heavies sometimes so I know, well it's either they are OP or I'm destined to be a sentinel which I keep ignoring.

You're likely an up-close-and-personal type of player. I'd recommend Combat Rifle if you rocked at Heavy and just shield/armor stack the suit.

Thats why CCP targets heavy's for nerfs we never speak as one on almost any topic, not saying my topic is the right choice but almost any topic theres always those heavy's who go out there way to make CCP feel like what they did to use was for the best.

Fox Gaden Immortal Guides 4992	Posted - 2014.11.20 20:15:00 - [20] - Quote I have been an HMG Sentinel since 1.3. I use the Milita HMG much of the time. Here is some helpful advice. If you can fit a quick pause in the middle of a fight, taking your finger off the trigger whenever you get off target, when you over correct or while switching from one target to another, it will increase the rounds you can get out before overheat by quite a bit. I like the heat change, because handling Overheat defines the difference between a casual Sentinel and a dedicated Sentinel. Now not everyone and their dog can do it as effectively as a dedicated Sentinel. Hand/Eye coordination cannot be taught. For everything else there is the Learning Coalition.

My goal is to always get 30+ kills on the battlefield since im kind of locked down on one game mode which is Dom. Seems to me the only way to be able to get 3rd or 2nd on the weekly leader board as a heavy. Im so use to just fighting with my logi and not even looking at the over heat on my HMG but now i listen for the sound it makes that way i know to let go before i over heat.

I play that fit regularly. I also run Minmatar Sentinel with Burst HMG, or sometime with Assault HMG depending on the map. If I know I have to take on a squad of 5 or 6 guys that are working together, then I break out my Boundless HMG, but I don't bother for anything less. Of course my default fit is Raven Amarr Sentinel with Militia HMG. Hand/Eye coordination cannot be taught. For everything else there is the Learning Coalition.

Watch the color of the tip of your HMG too. It goes from dark to red as it heats up, and darkens again as it cools off. Just practice looking for those opportunities to stop your fire for a moment, and with practice your will find more and more chances to do so without effecting your damage output. Only shoot when your are likely to hit something. Or use the Burst HMG for a while, and then heat management on the standard will seam easy. Hand/Eye coordination cannot be taught.

The scouts are weak, they band together because they'll fail otherwise. We heavies? We are the strength in your back holding you together. But **** with our HMG too much without giving us another Heavy Weapon and you will see us come together like scouts wish they could. Heavies used to be considered a community, we just haven't needed it since we've been a bit more powerful then the rest for a while.

Pro tip: Use uplinks on free suits to farm WP. Having a closer position to spawn in will also help you when you switch back to heavy, as you will have a quick way back to the area you want to be in. Heavy suit ... just isn't very capable for making WP's if you aren't Forge Gunning.
