I like the Spartan, but is a little (just little) miffed that it didn't come with an Active Scanner as was advertised. I don't know when and why this was changed, but now it has a Nanohive instead. I was thinking about getting one of these myself. Just to clarify, can you post the full actual fitting here? Thanks, Regis. This is the most recent thing I can find... This is so u can see all the suits incase u change your mind on one.. But beware.. Three are subject to change.. As someone mentioned, the scanner on the gal assault is now a nanohive https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/trbNwYwlfKHzKjcBsdYCuUg/htmlview I know they can change, and I am kind of ok with that. But the changes use to be preceded by discussion, like we had during the announcement of the APEX suites. Both the excel sheet you linked and the official batch post by CCP Frame stated the Gal Assault to have a Active Scanner. I have searched the forums, and can find nothing to indicate why this was changed. So, I have a hunch the current configuration is not intentional, but a mistake. If not, I would love to hear the reasons why this was changed. Who knows.. I don't think it was this thread, but someone had mentioned they bought it and it didn't have the scanner, but a nanohive, and he was cool with that.. I hope they at least pop in and say "hey, sorry for any inconvenience, but we changed something." Just so people who are still mulling over options know what they are getting

I personally prefer the nanohive, since the AR can eat up ammo quickly, especially when laying down suppressive fire or attacking shield/armor tanked enemies. ISK Trader channel: blitz

But if they did change things, it would be nice for an update so people aren't surprised.. Some changes may not be as welcomed as this one (if it was really changed)

What do you think about the change from Locus to Flux grenade? Since the Assault Rifle has a bonus to shield damage, it would be preferable to have a Locus to finish off the armour. Now I thave to throw the flux first, and then have a weapon which is -10% to armor.
Eruditus 920 Nemo Malus Felix 956	Posted - 2014.12.06 18:03:00 - [37] - Quote Thanks for the feedback everyone. It seems the general consensus is to choose one that you already have skills into the suit or weapon. But I was leaning towards getting a couple of suits that were new roles and/or new weapons for a change of pace. I know they won't be as strong but they are BPO's. I am still torn. The Shaman would give me a logi which I don't have plus it has a CR which I have at max level. Both the Min and Gal Commando look interesting with the MD and PLC but I have no SP in the AR. Oh, and as much as I loathe Sentinels, I might consider the Warlord just to have one. "Stay gold, Ponyboy..."

Heh. It's not his fault that the Amarr rarely put up a fight. It is his fault. The amarr rarely put up a fight because GAL and Min can only Q sync protostomp. Who likes to fight when there is no chance of winning...? maybe if cal and amarr stepped up their lp stores and actually had good things to spend it on maybe ppl aould fight for them. Also why do you have to bold eveeything you post? He bolds his posts because he has vision problems, and bolding what he says makes it easier to find his posts and replies to said posts. Though there are many good things in the Caldari LP store, such as Swarm Launchers & Caldari Assaults. As for the Amarr LP store, they have their Uplinks, which many people stock up on for PCs.

SILENT GIANT FATHERS-AND-SONS 194	Posted - 2014.12.06 18:58:00 - [39] - Quote For those that have the "shaman" and "tiger", which one do you feel was a better buy? I almost have enough for one and will eventually grind for another, but for my first; which do you feel was the better value? I am flexible in playstyle depending on the match so I don't have a fav, fit. Kinda leaning towards shaman only because I don't have any sp in one and it would give me a free fit to try one out. Add that last bit of variety to my fittings and would prob be most expensive suit to fit if had to spend isk.

It will take a while but its a BPO suit and ive been wanting BPO assault for a while. Already have BPO gal scout so no need for Serpent. Im getting cal assault and Tiger scout. Cant wait. Tiger scout is fun. Have cal logi not assault so I can't say. Min assault isn't bad though. About to get probably an Amarr heavy so I can spam heavies like everyone else.

deezy dabest IMPERIAL SPECIAL FORCES GROUP 1213	Posted - 2014.12.07 03:19:00 - [44] - Quote I have all 5 of the LP Amarr suits and love them. This is mostly due to the fact that I have all the skills for all of them maxed out aside from 2 levels of proficiency on the laser and 1 level on the commando suit (the commando is still awesome tho) I definitely would not recommend running them as a main suit unless you have your cores maxed out along with atleast the suit and primary weapon maxed as well.

Guess I'll have to start the grind all over again so I can collect them all. Still doesn't help my current problem of what do I get first. Went to bed w 96.5k lp. @ 1:30am, I just couldn't stay up any later. 2 more wins and I better have decided. lp is burning a hole in my pocket already

Sure its cal tech, but gets no bonuses, the min has a MD and SWM, should have been MD and CR, or SWM and CR. Gal and amarr commando, every weapon at adv or above. Don't give a damn bout my kdr, I will kill you.
