Running proto is almost always done at a loss, however it is done because it's *fun*.
If you're sitting on a few million isk and playing with a decent squad, the amount that you actually lose when running proto goes down drastically. You can run BPO's / Basic / Advance gear when playing solo, or not trying too hard... and then pull proto out when you actually want to use it (and are in squads that support it).
One of my characters is still sitting on 100+ proto suits from when I spent about 50m and bought something like 400-500 proto suits *months* ago.

Not a protostomper, but to run proto I dropship. Believe it or not you can go isk positive running a standard DS with mCRU and scanner while helping team and being cautious. Drop some links on rooftops for extra points.

Have you ever built a proto suit?
They're seventy-five times as expensive as a solid militia-gear build.
They're ten times as expensive as a solid standard-gear buld
They're fivee times as expensive as a solid advanced-gear build.
Yet, unless you HP tank them with massive shields/armor, they die just as quickly as any above.
What makes proto stompers so powerful is not their gear. It's that they run in squads who keep their group tight, within about 25 meters of each other. This allows them to rotate in and out quickly if one is low on HP. The injured soldier can fall back while the others move to the front and act as a shield. They can pick each other up. They can all focus their attack on a single soldier who just spawned out of a CRU. They can all focus their attack on a single soldier left to defend an objective. They all focus on a single solder, and when they do, he drops in under a second.
If you want to stomp, you can do it in militia gear:
1. Find a group of people you can play with every day for 8 hours in a row.
2. Always stay within 25 meters of each other in battle.
3. When you get hurt, move behind those who are not hurt and let them take some damage as they finish off the enemy.
4. Pick each other up.
5. Use comms so that you can call out which soldier you will all focus your attack on.
6. Have someone run scans.
7. Have a knifer or puncher to run up in people's faces. (optional but trendy)
There is synergy in a group. That is the power; not the meta level of the weapons/armor. |

Couple different ways:
1. Not actually being ISK positive. My prototype suits run at over 100k so if I die just twice in a match I lose out. However, I also have 50 million isk so if I am losing 200k a match I have 250 matches before I run out. Those that have hundreds of millions extend it even further.
2. Not always using Prototype. Only some matches will someone use Prototype gear and others just stick with Basic/Advanced. It is like a cheat day on a diet.
3. Getting an absurd amount of money. You can die spend 400k a match if you are getting 400k a match.
4. Not dying. You can use suits that cost 300k forever if you never, ever die.
5. Being efficient. You can make a prototype suit 110k that is more isk efficient than a 220k suit so you end up saving despite "prototype suits are 180k+"
It is usually a mix of the above. 1 + 4 + 5 is how I have been able to restock my prototype suits to 100 and by the time I needed to restock, I had slightly more money than when I bought them to 100. I use fits that are not the top end of price but at still ultra effective like using an advanced weapon rather than prototype weapon and trying to only die 1-4 times between two matches so that my "number of matches before bankrupt" increases sharply.
For me, I was using basic suits for the longest time. Each suit cost less than 20k as I found myself saving to a large amount of money (for me). Eventually, I realized that I was nearly ISK positive so it didn't matter what I ran because it would take longer to become destitute than my interest will be held with the game. I started with 45 million several months ago when I went with my "use prototype gear" shtick. After several months, I am at 48 million. I basically have no reason not to use prototype suits given my SP and ISK.

Don't die.
If you're not on that level yet, then play in cheap suits.
And it's not about running in squads as they say. It's about how you play.
If you're more than good, you won't lose isk using proto.
If you're not good enough, you won't run in proto without losing isk.

Budgeting.
DUST is a giant game of learning how to budget for your aspirations.
At first it wasn't cost effective to run Proto-tybe gear much without taking ISK losses but learning how to survive in STD and ADV equipment makes you more efficient at it along with skill acquired over time in the game.
You figure out what your average death is per match and budget your suits around making profit. For some they can only do this in STD and ADV gear... Or be forced to run BPO's.
For others they still make a profit running proto.
I really don;t care about ISK... haven't for years.. it just keeps building up... I Have had matches where i have lost a couple million in Proto suits... then have 6 matches i won't take a loss and usually land in top position for the team and get high payouts.
I Feel these days i take more losses cuz i really don't care about the results anymore aslong as i have fun... And my wallet still keeps gaining ISK faster then i can spend it... And i frequently give friends 10 mil so i don't have to hear them complain about being broke.
Budgeting just becomes second nature. |

You get the idea, this way you dont waste 2 million isk on a losing battle.
You can use the more practical fit for the map you are on.
I recommend sticking to advanced gear or lower until you have 20 million isk minimum.
It really sucks having anything lower since a stack of 100 proto can cost 5 million or more. |

You didn't get 330 billion running ambush. It would take constantly running ambush matches for over 32 YEARS straight, without a break, to earn that much.
(My calculations: Ambush match, 8 minutes, ambush payout: 155,000 isk. 330,000,000,000 isk / 155,000 isk per match = 2129032.258064516 matches 2129032.258064516 matches * 8 minutes per match = 17032258.06451613 minutes / 60 minutes per hour = 283870.9677419355 hours / 24 hours per day = 11827.95698924731 days / 365 days per year = 32.4053616143762 years / 10 years per decade = 3.2 decades)

Lol git gud, then proceeds to say "I throw RE's and snipe."
The real answer is to get scrubby, most proto players don't care about the team, or even winning in pubs. They only care about their K/D and isk efficiency. I see a lot of proto players run cloaky scouts and camp CRUs/points the entire match. They usually end up something like 20/1 at the end of the match, while their team loses horribly. So just grab a cloaky scout with RE's/shotgun and camp.

Absolutely, bro! I will never forget the time our terror troop went full bolt pistol. Good times. Hit me up in game this week and let's wreak havoc! |

"how u proto stompers make ur isk?"
A combination of PC matches, teamwork, skill, and squadmates that run needles.
Clone, A squad of only pistols? That's child's play. Try only melee. |

Currently at 330 billion isk.
Then when a map pops i like to play,
I go all out with best proto fit.
Have many different types of fits to use for the right maps.
I have some fits like this for example.
Ambush
Cheap Massdriver
Cheap Uplinks
Hi-Massdriver
Hi-Uplinks
Cheap AV
Hi-AV
You get the idea, this way you dont waste 2 million isk on a losing battle.
You can use the more practical fit for the map you are on.
I recommend sticking to advanced gear or lower until you have 20 million isk minimum.
It really sucks having anything lower since a stack of 100 proto can cost 5 million or more.
Pic of your character sheet to validate the following statement please.
"Currently at 330 billion risk"
See you on the flip side brother

I only run proto in an organised squad, sometimes If we're just versing a rable of randoms I'll run proto as well, otherwise I run adv when playing solo and std/mlt when i come across another squad of proto and I pick of their teams std/mlt and the proto squad usually goes for the bigger targets on my team and leave me alone to flank and kill
also, injectors, so good youll see some proto squads with a few "deaths" but theyre being picked up continuously so theyre not losing anything and not really dying |

I have no idea how I do it.
I'm a very aggressive and often suicidal (for the lulz) and yet always remain ISK positive at the end of the day.
I don't budget, I don't change my playstyle, I will charge into a pack of enemies for the lulz, losing suits, but at the end of the day remain ISK positive.

I had a militia turret and almost no vehicle skills.
I use it for uplink spam and ramming.
Good dogfight though lol

There is a very large sum of ISK floating around dust from when holding planets paid you.
And from a very early refund we got, that's where I got my pool of ISK roughly 190 mil.

They're seventy-five times as expensive as a solid militia-gear build.
They're ten times as expensive as a solid standard-gear buld
They're fivee times as expensive as a solid advanced-gear build.
Yet, unless you HP tank them with massive shields/armor, they die just as quickly as any above.
What makes proto stompers so powerful is not their gear. It's that they run in squads who keep their group tight, within about 25 meters of each other. This allows them to rotate in and out quickly if one is low on HP. The injured soldier can fall back while the others move to the front and act as a shield. They can pick each other up. They can all focus their attack on a single soldier who just spawned out of a CRU. They can all focus their attack on a single soldier left to defend an objective. They all focus on a single solder, and when they do, he drops in under a second.
If you want to stomp, you can do it in militia gear:
1. Find a group of people you can play with every day for 8 hours in a row.
2. Always stay within 25 meters of each other in battle.
3. When you get hurt, move behind those who are not hurt and let them take some damage as they finish off the enemy.
4. Pick each other up.
5. Use comms so that you can call out which soldier you will all focus your attack on.
6. Have someone run scans.
7. Have a knifer or puncher to run up in people's faces. (optional but trendy)
There is synergy in a group. That is the power; not the meta level of the weapons/armor.
If the whole f*cking team fights ^^^ this is possible regardless to what you're wearing. Do it in advanced gear all the time. The issue with proto stomping is when the majority of your team stops fighting because they saw a proto rifle in the kill feed.
THIS Community is largely a bunch b*tches worried more about their kd than winning battles. As soon as they see a real challenge they leave or snipe. This puts the rest of your team into a relentless camp fest?! The "6 v 16" situation. Sometimes all it takes is a slayer logi with links, needle, a scanner, and a proto rifle on an adv su it to get you back into an area. I can guarantee a f*cking sniper rifle won't do that!
Sometimes when getting proto stomped stop and check the map. You'll find that you and about 4 other mercs are actually fighting. The rest of those p*ssies are in the redline watching you get obliterated knowing full well you could use a hand. Sorry for the language, but this bothers the f*ck out of me.
To address your cash issue there are a number of different ways to make isk stack honestly.
1. Manage your PC activity
Stop xing up for every d*mn match! Some maps aren't good for your role. Close maps generally get assaults blown away while open maps have claimed many a sentinel caught running across 50 meters of plain. Foolishly going into PC with under 10 mil in your account isn't smart. Make sure you have atleast 25 of the suit (s) you intend to run in that PC. If you don't you don't X.
2. BPO's are awesome!
With your upgrades and proficiencies maxed a merc can turn a cheap bpo into a killing machine. (Still waiting on gal logi, sentinel, assault, and commando bpos CCP, and not those sh*tty apex suits) I would invest in a bpo before those d*mn keys!
3. Set goals!
"Today I'm gonna grind up 10 mil isk!" Simple right? Take your time, perfect your abilities, and watch your isk stack. Tell yourself "I'm not running proto until I reach my next million skill points!". I guarantee you'll have some isk saved up.
4. Do math!
Calculator? Check! Price tags? Check! Brain?...... eh?!
Calculate up how much 100 prototype dropsuits will cost you. You can also do this with weapons, mods, equipment, etc. Grind up double your calculations. You will have 100 ready to go plus some buffer. Simple.
5. Run in squad with mercs that have scrots! If your in a squad of guys that see a corp name, and instantly mentally quit? Call them all p*ssies, exit squad, find some f*cking fighters, and squad up for some 16 v 16 barn burners!
I know there are corps that you know for a fact are just not worth you burning isk on as they all out experience you by leagues, but you won't get any better not fighting will you? If nothing else lock down one point, and make them earn it every time they show up. If they take it move to the next, and stack up! o7

I play solo and proto equip. all the time. still can gain back my drunk night donations (20milISK) in week.
My gungame suck so I throw RE's and snipe when not supporting blueberries with my reps and hives.
go to mirror and ask your self "well, tell me your own opinion, how did it go?"
and stop rushing. Lol git gud, then proceeds to say "I throw RE's and snipe." The real answer is to get scrubby, most proto players don't care about the team, or even winning in pubs. They only care about their K/D and isk efficiency. I see a lot of proto players run cloaky scouts and camp CRUs/points the entire match. They usually end up something like 20/1 at the end of the match, while their team loses horribly. So just grab a cloaky scout with RE's/shotgun and camp.
Rotflmao! I totally missed the scrubbery posted there lol! Omg what a scrub! "Get gud" lol! Man I almost p*ssed myself when I read that lmao! Directly after telling a man to "get gud" he suggest throwing remotes and sniping lol! I can't breathe lol!
