Sup fellow duties. Here is my guesswork about the usefulness/abilities of all APEX suits. I'm looking for intensive feedback before I put this into video form. The 5 APEX suits that I already own are indicated, also R= Recommend DR= Don't recommend
Amarr suits in general- omg imperial scrambler pistol, what a garbage sidearm
Amarr 'Dominus' Sentinel - I own this one, have footage. Great suit compared to many APEX, but weak choice for veteran heavies. Amarr 'Paladin' Commando - Can't tell if this would be any good, might have no answers for CQC Amarr 'Opus' Assault - Initially thought this suit would be good, but I heard it's unusable due to texture problems, DR Amarr 'Seraph' Logistics - Pure craziness of the sidearm makes me prefer another logi, DR Amarr 'Dragon' Scout - While I like uplink suits, I'd prefer the gal scout, DR
Caldari suits in general - obsessive need to put bolt pistols on suits that can't get the maximum benefit from them, as well as state regulator modules, hampers these suits
Caldari 'Shogun' Sentinel- Would generally take gallente's sidearm, but in certain situations could be good Caldari 'Samurai' Commando- I dislike regular sniper rifles, give me a tactical sniper rifle any day, DR Caldari 'Ratetsu' Assault - nano hive doesn't really seem needed Caldari 'Kampo' Logistics - only 3 equipment makes me prefer min/gal logi, DR Caldari 'Hawk' Scout - with this suit's layout, it's only real purpose (scanning) is better served by gal logi, DR
Gallente suits in general - decent layouts all around
Gallente 'Atlas' Sentinel - meh Gallente 'Cenurion' Commando - vid review up, fun suit and great for learning new weapons Gallente 'Spartan' Assault- not that big a fan of basic Assault rifles Gallente 'Chiron' Logistics - vid review up, my favourite APEX by far, breach AR and 4 logi tools for free is a pretty damn nice thing to have, R Gallente 'Serpent' Scout - Shotgun, dampening mods and an uplink, seems like a decent combo, R
Minmatar - a couple silly modules, but overall great suit choices
Minmatar 'Warlord' Sentinel - much weaker hp then Amarr sentinel, but better sidearm, prefer Amarr Minmatar 'Renegade' Commando - video review up, silly modules, but I love the weapon pairing. Minmatar 'Nomad' Assault - meh Minmatar 'Shaman' Logistics- another 4 equipment logi, probably the best APEX for WP farming, R Minmatar 'Tiger' Scout - video review up, great rush hacking and noob trolling suit, R
Please check out my youtube channel for tons of video apex review coverage.
Looking for lots of feedback before I start offering up these opinions in video form. If you have lots/important feedback on a particular suit, I will try to mention you with quick shout outs.

I use a non apex calmando the same way the apex is set up although I do have a tactical spiper on it, it works great for long range when they are to far out for the RR then I take a knee and start shooting the ground near infantry with the sniper.... Lol Im not a very good sniper let's say that but I prefer to snipe from up close. Gonna be the suit I go for even if it is bad.
Hello? any one there?

ya, i love my calmando, but reg sniper rifles are so much crappier then tactical that i consider them almost unusable. APEX suits are such a big investment, so I'm choosing not to recommend any APEX suits if I could build a better suit for under 12k ISK.

Why would a logi having a sidearm cause you to not recommend it? Amarr and min Apex are the best logi ones. |

The 'Nomad' Assault is actually one of the more awesome tactical collection of gear in the game.
Anti Scout - When those pesky scouts sneak up behind you, turn and aim at their feet and spam that flaylock trigger. If the framerate is nominal, then this is a splendid way to rid yourself of hostile shadows.
Point Defense - Always mount a few REs around objectives, and set booby traps for enemies. Keep an eye out and detonate them for +50 kills!
Anti Vehicle - 3 REs can do a lot of damage, especially to a LAV. Make certain to mount at least one by the driver's door.
Anti Heavy - Strafe just outside of their range and pelt them with lvl 5 proficiency std CR rounds. They'll drop dead as they run for cover.
Anti Assault - Use your cover wisely, or lure your enemies into RE traps. That CR will make mincemeat out of armor-based opponents.
Attack around corners - use the flaylock and REs to blast hard to catch enemies hiding around corners.
The overall well-roundedness of this suit grants its wearer with a strong armament, superior speed capabilities and a variety of tactical options. It is for the strategic player, and for those who enjoy toying with their opponents.

basically, my DR's go to suits that either seem either far inferior to another APEX suit in a certain role, or if I could design a much better suit for under 12k. The pure crapiness of the scrambler pistol causes the amarr logi to fall into this category, since I would much rather taken one of the 4 equipment slot logis onto the field. If you think I'm being to hard on this logi let me know, production on the vid is starting soon.
A basic Amarr logi (not APEX) designed with a good weapon set is actually seems like a very good suit indeed.

Thanks for the tip. This was actually quite helpful.
Soo... v.X.1s different then other versions of the APEX suit? it looks like the dragon scout from the profiteer pack has RE instead of uplink, and the nomad assault has a nano hive instead of RE's, and the gallente sentinel has submachine gun instead of ion pistol. Did I miss anything?
Hopefully that's all the info I need. If anyone has more APEX information or videos, don't hesitate to let me know about it before I start production over the next few hours.

The gal and cal i DR because those logi bonuses are only good with proto variants imo. |

OK, so I gotta ask, how good a weapon is the assault scrambler rifle? Might be the only weapon I've never touched. I will definitely give the amarr logi a better recommendation than planned based on what you've said here.
I can def tell you the gal logi apex performs very well for me, but then again I am skilled into gal logis and AR maxed as well. The basic scanner on it is capable of scanning far more people then I would have guessed.

Bought the Caldari Assault APex suit and I'm happy although I really want to change that Rail Rifle to the Assault.
