It used to be pretty balanced, choose Minmatard heavy for flanking and speed, Caldari for AV, and Gal and Amarr competed for HMG heavy. Amarr would typically be slightly better at facing other heavies - but Gal could be more versatile with 4 lows. And with Gal low stamina - 4 kats on it wouldn't overwhelm everyone. Stacking 4 armors would keep it up with amarr who still had 3 lows plus a good amount more base armor.
But now?
Amarr is just the choice suit for heavies. Caldari is still the AV heavy pick choice - but Minmatard is doomed.
With resistance to HMG, 4 lows to stack armor, reps, speed, or hack - and good stamina - why would you pick any other heavy?
With gal it made sense - but Amarr? It's just OP.
What data could you of possibly gotten to make this decision? It seems absurd.
Amarr is slow as all hell. The Gal sentinel is got the power now. Anyways I respec into amarr. 1344 armor on that proto sentinel. Proficiency 5 in my hmg. 1 complex damage mod. 4 logis. Welcome to the s**t show

Two high slots also made the Amarr favorable for forge gunning, being the all around best suit to use for any type of heavy play.
Now each race has a specific style and isn't stepping on the other's toes. Also, Amarr should always have the most lows.
If the Amarr sentinel got a 2/3 layout again we would have to give the assault a 4/4 layout, and the scout a 3/3 layout in order for things to make sense.
I respec into amarr sentinel because it used to be my old gallente fit. Amarr are so slow it's not funny.
