True Adamance Praetoriani Classiarii Templares Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris 15051	Posted - 2014.11.26 00:33:00 - [1] - Quote Having noted the disparities between the fitting capacity of say a Shield HAV and and Armour HAV, and given the current AV climate of Anti Armour weaponry, it has to be said that the fitting requirement of Armour Module is simply too great to allow for competitive armour HAV vs Shield HAV. For example A standard Heavily Shield Tanked Gunnlogi might fit, and have room for both small and large turrets and additional modules... 2x Complex Heavy Shield Extenders [+1325 Shielding] 1x Advanced/Complex Shield Hardener [40% shield resistance modifier] Shield HP: 5300 Shield EHP: 7120 Total EHP (unmodified): 8620 A Heavily Armour Tanked Madrugar might be able to fit, however sacrifices it's capacity to fit useful high slot modules and higher calibre Large Turrets and forgoes the capacity to fit small turrets. 1x Complex 120mm Armour Plating [+1885 Armour Plating] 1x Complex Heavy Armour Repairer [137.5 Armoure Reps/sec] 1x Advanced Armour Hardener [25% armour resistance modifier] Armour HP: 5885 Armour EHP: 7356.25 Total EHP (unmodified): 8556.25 As you might be able to see the capacity to fit full racial tank, higher tier turrets, high slot modules, and small turrets is significantly reduced on the Madrugar compared to the Gunnlogi. Coupled with the current Meta of having many Anti Armour AV options means that statistically the Madrugar is the inferior option, and in many other cases all armour tanked vehicles are statistically inferior. This is partly due to the allocations of PG and CPU extender units solely in the Low Slots. Simply put an Armour vehicle cannot afford to forgo the fitting of its racial tank type in the low slots to accommodate for these options and thus puts itself at a great disadvantage when it compared to shield HAV. Additionally in many respects it is almost wholly pointless to consider the passive repair units Armour vehicles have access to as Shield Vehicles also have prodigious passive repair capabilities as their Shields Pulse automatically back up to full without having to fit a single module. The passive repair capabilities are essentially negligible on most armour HAV. Vs Ion Cannon - You repair the equivalent of one round of 7 per second Vs Particle Cannon - You repair the equivalent of 0.12% of one round per second Vs XT-201 - .... well we all know how this one goes down.... Part of what makes Armour Vehicles more specifically HAV not worth driving at the moment is that they cannot be outfitted in the same manner as Shield HAV which should be the direct equivalent. Is it possible to consider looking at the numbers for rebalancing? Does anyone have any tweaks and suggestions for how to rectify this relative imbalance?

Pokey Dravon OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 3600	Posted - 2014.11.26 01:23:00 - [3] - Quote Well first of all you're spot on with the Madrugar's lack of fitting resources. All too often my Madrugar fits have unfilled Highs because I'm completely out of resources from trying to fit what I feel is a satisfactory armor defense. Whereas on my Gunnlogi I can fit basically whatever I want and then have resources left over to stick armor plates, utility mods, ect in my lows. Secondly I think shield and armor is in a very weird place for vehicles right now. Shields naturally have the recharge rate which is a defining feature of the tanking style, in that (aside from a delay) the shields come back on their own at a steady rate. However their modules lend to a more burst tanking style, such as shield boosters having a large, single pulse of HP. So Shields are both a slow passive tank, as well as a high resist bursty tank. Armor on the other hand? It's easy to throw out the buzzphrase "stand and deliver" but what does that really mean? Ok it reps even while under fire, but how should those reps compare to the natural recharge of shields? Intuition lends to the answer being "more than shield regen" but by how much? If its too close to shields then shields are still superior due to the possibility of burst tanking. If its too high then you end up with unkillable rep armor tanks. So I guess my question to the community is, what is the proper ratio? Where does armor fit in in the grand scheme of vehicle tanking? Hotfix Delta Sentinel eHP Calcs

Well because the passive recharge is so good on the Gunnlogi, you can basically fit 2 hardeners and an extender, which means either more hardener uptime than a Madrugar, or double hardened which gets such insane resistances that yes...it stands and delivers via sheer eHP. Honestly the balance between armor and shield was so much better when HAVs had 5 Main and 2-3 Secondary slots... I'm almost wondering if shields are fine as is but armor needs to move to a massive amount of HP with slower repair.. Hotfix Delta Sentinel eHP Calcs

Triple rep forge gunners can't survive swarm or forge alpha, much less a rail tank. Triple reps are a niche fit that only really counters small rails and AV nades. They are much less awesome than 1.7. Very situational. Part of the problem is that because of Adamance's statement that AV is focused towards armor (no one uses plasma cannons because of dropships) that means an 8000 HP madrugar has closer to 5-6k EHP because of resists and proficiencies vs. Forges and swarms. The 7000 raw HP gunnlogi jumps up to 8-10000 roughly because of weapon deficiencies vs. Shields. Fully tanked madrugar explodes if I drop four shots into a non weakpoint. The gunnlogi takes six. The whole six shot gunnlogi becomes a problem because escaping destruction is too easy. The madrugar is a deathtrap. Unless we get a shield killing heavy weapon and one for lights that can reliably hit dropships the Gunnlogi will remain the more efficient fit versus anyone not using the PLC. But the PLC has problems getting kills because the tanks we have are very fast compared to the original. Their escape window is fairly open and easy to use. EVE Online is what you get when engineers attempt to create "fun" without consulting someone who comprehends the word.

I agree with that general principle. I'd also say that a reworking of the PG/CPU of both the hulls plus the modules themselves would be much more healthy since there fitting of the two chassis's is wildly different: shields use a lot of PG and CPU,while armour takes a lot of PG - but the Maddy only has slightly more PG with a lot less CPU, comparatively. Personally, I think we need to do a good few things to make HAVs internally balanced with one another: - Shields need to rep passively at a lower rate and only delay when fully depleted - Armour needs strong active repair modules that are short lived - All racial hulls: Caldari with strong shield buffer; Gallente with passive rep(??); Amarr with higher armour buffer; Minmatar with higher shield repair rate(?) (Something like that anyway: racial hulls and turrets are incredibly important) - All racial turrets (as with hulls it's hard to balance when you have very little anti-shield weaponry) Those are my spitballs.

Indeed reviewing how the armour and shield modules work in Dust 514 for vehicles is a must do. Now as Dravon mentioned before we'd been discussing how vehicles and how the associated tanking types should work for vehicles and one of the things he mentioned was about how Shield vehicles passively regenerate their shields is something that needs to be reconsidered. Shield's in EVE (most comparable examples) do not regenerate in pulses (Gunnlogi pulses 167 per second) but instead slowly and constantly passively repair X Shielding per second over time. I definitely believe that Shields should have a passive regeneration but it should not be anywhere near its current regenerative capacity. Additionally as Pokey Dravon, Velo0cet, and myself discussed in his vehicle rebalance thread we came to the conclusion that Shield Tanking in Dust should be about powerful short terms spikes of efficiency which equate to the longer in duration armour tanking modules which cycle more but all roughly equate to the same values. E.G- Heavy Efficient Armour Repairer used to pulse for 414 Armour Repairs every 3 seconds for 5 cycles. 4145 = 2070 reps over 15 seconds The Current Shield Booster instantly repairs 1900 Shield for a one off pulse. Imagine if this was broken down into three consecutive pulses over a 12 second period. 1950 / 3 = 650 over 12 seconds (pulse every 4 seconds) Comparable HP regains with Armour accounting for its typically larger HP values and lack of passive regeneration. We also discussed the rebalancing of vehicle hulls so they better account for racial tanking types and all hulls from highest EHP to lowest have only a 10-15% difference. Amarr 800/4000 Gallente 1000/3625 Caldari 3200/1000 Minmatar 2750/1300 Or something like that. Thoughts? I said, "Empress, I do this, I thought that you knew this.

This+1 I fundamentally do not believe so. Shields vehicles especially HAV can attain ungodly and frankly too high EHP values armour 9-10K which is a number that should be solely relegated to Marauders if they make a return. There is no reason that it should take 6 PRO forge gun shots to drop an HAV..... if Marauders ever make a come back it could take AV in the region of 8-10 to down such a vehicle...... For Example - To prove my point HAV have too much EHP I will pick on the Sica "Shameless EHP ****". 1x 80 GJ Particle Cannon 1x Complex Heavy Shield Extender 1x Complex Shield Hardener 1x Complex 120mm Armour Plate 1x Complex PG Extender Look at that fit right there........ on a Miltia Tank...... good god a Madrugar or Soma Pilot should weep for the injustice. Shield HP: 3975 Shield EHP: 5565 (1.2 = 6678 vs explosive and kinetic AV) Total Unmodified EHP: 5565 + 3385 = 8950 (9386 vs Explosive and Kinetic AV inclusive of anti armour bonuses) 9K EHP on a militia tank able to fit all prototype modules......... that not even accounting that the Sica will have passive reps after 4 seconds of 168 Shield per second........ better than any armour repper any day of the week.

Pokey Dravon OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 3625	Posted - 2014.11.26 21:25:00 - [15] - Quote I think the fact that you can fit armor plates of any sizable amount on a Shitca/Gunnlogi is a damn crime since you can't do the same with shields on a Soma/Madrugar. That's a glaring issue right there. I mean let's just take a typical look at the main rack you're gong to see on a Shield vs Armor HAV Shield 2 Hardeners 1 Extender Armor 1 Hardener 1 Plate 1 Repairer Now, the Shield extender is less HP than the Armor Plate, but not by a huge margin. And again you have a shield hardener giving less benefit than an armor hardener, but you have 2 of them which pushes its eHP significantly above that of the armor tank, even with the lesser resist and buffer. I guess it comes down to, ok shield tanks, you get natural reps (and really good ones at that) without the need of a module to do so. If that's the case, even if armor reps remain comparable to natural shield regen, that armor HAV must have more eHP than the shield vehicle. I mean hell look at a typical Caldari Sentinel fit vs an Amarr Sentinel fit. The Caldari tends to be more focused around short delays and fast regen instead of stacking nothing but extenders, whereas most Amarr Sentinels stack on 3-4 plates and have insanely higher HP.

Hell having talked with Quasar Storm he suggests to me that there are only two kinds of competitive fits. Spiked Gunnlogi - Damage Modded Sponged Gunnlogi - 2x Extenders 1x Hardener As you either need to be able to dish out more damage than your opponent as quickly as possible or have enough EHP to brawl them into submission. Also I think you got mixed up there as the Shield Hardener gives 15% more resistance than Armour Hardeners. I said, "Empress, I do this, I thought that you knew this.

Harpyja Legio DXIV 2215	Posted - 2014.11.29 05:58:00 - [27] - Quote Why not just decrease the CPU cost of armor modules? Then increase their PG costs and buff armor vehicles' PG. Should be easier fitting armor modules to armor vehicles than to shield vehicles. I also think that another problem at play here is the lack of module variety. I will admit that I have a complex light armor rep on my Gunnlogi (advanced large missiles with small blaster and railgun, and all complex shield extender, hardener, missile damage, and CPU). But tell me, what else am I supposed to fit in my lows with all that extra fitting? (I can't add any armor modules if I have proto large missiles, so keep that in mind). I've already ran fits with ammo expanders, but the armor rep is more useful, though so far I haven't needed it since I added it about a week ago. And I don't mind running to a supply depot every once in a while. I'll gladly trade my armor rep for some chassis upgrades, and maybe the CPU mod as well if removing the light rep frees up that much CPU. I also hate it when people bash Gunnlogis on the forums when all they have in mind is their potential EHP abilities. Look at my fit above: 3950 shield, 1500 armor. First, AV always gets the first hit on me so my shield hardener is never up for max EHP when I'm attacked by AV. Second, aside from the armor rep which I'd trade for a chassis upgrade, my Gunnlogi is properly shield tanked. I even forego a potential shield module for a damage amplifier. I feel like the Gunnlogi is properly balanced when fit as intended. What needs to be looked at, as I said at the very top, are armor modules themselves and armor vehicles. Just simply nerfing the Gunnlogi's fitting will nerf fits that are already at fair play. "By His light, and His will"- The Scriptures, 12:32

I've already ran fits with ammo expanders, but the armor rep is more useful, though so far I haven't needed it since I added it about a week ago. And I don't mind running to a supply depot every once in a while. I'll gladly trade my armor rep for some chassis upgrades, and maybe the CPU mod as well if removing the light rep frees up that much CPU. I also hate it when people bash Gunnlogis on the forums when all they have in mind is their potential EHP abilities. Look at my fit above: 3950 shield, 1500 armor. First, AV always gets the first hit on me so my shield hardener is never up for max EHP when I'm attacked by AV. Second, aside from the armor rep which I'd trade for a chassis upgrade, my Gunnlogi is properly shield tanked. I even forego a potential shield module for a damage amplifier. I feel like the Gunnlogi is properly balanced when fit as intended. What needs to be looked at, as I said at the very top, are armor modules themselves and armor vehicles. Just simply nerfing the Gunnlogi's fitting will nerf fits that are already at fair play. That does not make armour module use any more viable vs AV. Vs explsove AV I can afford to ignore swarm launchers. This is only at best a Standard or t1 vehicle it is not a T2 or advanced vehicle and should not nealy have so much EHP. Now I'm not suggesting nerfing shield in anyway more the dropping their passive reps to something more manageable and to consider a vehicle rebalancing whereby players can use Armour HAV competitively vs shields.

He "balanced" the madrugar to be much weaker vs infantry. Forums cheered. And now its completley outclassed by its shield counter parts. Bad vs Infantry, and bad vs tanks, the maddy was dealt a serious death blow. Without returning to the bad old days of duna and his ilk, certain things can and should be reveresed. - Momentum needs to be back to what it used to be. Yes you could jib back and forth but thats how you survived in a maddy vs rail fight. - Defensive measures need a serious buff. Armor Hardeners need to be imporved to the point where a maddy vs XTs should be a good fight, and not a mugging. Redline for Thee, but no Redline for Me.

Ehh, I was just giving my .02 ISK on fitting capabilities. I was going to post something here about being able to take on AV, but I realized it is just too complicated to work out a decent solution to this. You can give armor vehicles a stronger active tank (by reintroducing stronger active reps), but shield vehicles are supposed to be the better burst tankers (burst > active DPS tank) so you're just back to the current situation where shield HAVs can survive an AV engagement more easily. So I don't want to get involved with any of that right now. Though all I'm going to say is that shield vehicles should either rely on high regeneration or maximizing EHP through resists (or a combination of both) and armor vehicles should rely more on maximizing EHP through armor plates and not so much on regeneration.

While this may not matter in direct close quarters combat, at long range and vs AV this amounts to a significant advantage. Basically on a competitive tank fit I can achieve greater EHP values and have comparable repair values (outside of short ranged combat) due to natural resistances to primary AV forms and 15% more efficient hardener modules.

I will also being adding in another category PGU/CPU who's importance I'll get to later. Complex Hard Shield Extender - 2.22 PGU/CPU Complex 120mm Plate - 7.11 PGU/CPU Large Shield Extender II gives a ship 2625 shield hit points for the cost of 46 CPU and 165 PGU with a penalty of 25m Signature Radius (For those of you who don't know, signature radius works both for the time to lock onto a target in eve, as well as being used as one of the factors to determine quality of a hit, so heavy shield buffers take less time to lock onto and are easier to hit). This Module Has: 57.07 HP/CPU 15.91 HP/PGU 3.59 PGU/CPU The 1600mm Reinforced Steel Plates II (Yes I know rolled tungsten are just better) gives a ship 4800 Armor HP for the cost of 33 CPU and 575 PGU with a Mass addition of 3.75 Gigagrams (Mass determines acceleration making an armor tanked ship more sluggish in combat, and therefore easier to hit since it has a harder time outpacing turret tracking, but also making it easier to catch up with the ship). This Module Has: 145.45 HP/CPU 8.35 HP/PGU 17.42 PGU/CPU The 800mm Reinforced Steel Plates II gives a ship 2400 Armor HP for the cost of 28 CPU and 230 PGU with a Mass Addition of 1.5 Gigagrams. This Module has: 85.71 HP/CPU 10.43 HP/PGU 8.21 PGU/CPU Now the actual sizes of the numbers are irrelevant here (as we're dealing on a different scale) what is important is their relative sizes. I know Eve informs DUST Design, not dictates, but I'm using these numbers to try to help people draw comparisons in the modules (or maybe I'm just muddying the issue with needless numbers, if I am I'm sorry). Later I'll try to get the relative fitting amounts of ships in eve, but anyone have an idea of which class of ship to reference? I was thinking T1 Combat Cruisers. Khanid Logi and Tanker, sometimes AV Heavy or Sniper. I believe all these roles are support for front line soldiers.
