So I have two fits I mostly use these days, one which is proto, one which isn't. Here they are;
Non-Proto Fit
'Dragonfly' Scout
Rail Rifle Breach Scrambler Pistol Nanite Injector Stable Drop Uplink Enhanced Shield Extender Enhanced Ferroscale Plates Enhanced Kinetic Catalyzer Basic Cardiac Regulator
Proto Fit
Republic Assault mk.0
Republic Boundless Specialist Combat Rifle Republic Six Kin Submachine Gun Stable Drop Uplink 2 x Republic Complex Shield Extender Republic Complex Shield Energizer Enhanced Light Damage Modifier Basic Cardiac Regulator Enhanced Kinetic Catalyzer 2 x Republic Complex Shield Regulator
Now, the weird thing is, out of those two, I do MUCH better with the non-proto fit, which only has 335eHP, as opposed to the proto fit's 585eHP. It just goes to show that using Proto gear will not make you invincible, and that you're not getting stomped because someone's using proto gear. It comes down to their teamwork, and how your team works together to combat them.
I don't even think Proto-stomping should be a term for it. I've seen plenty of people say that they'd still stomp in mlt gear.
Thoughts?

It would be like saying "I do better with my Dren sentinel than my proto commando, therefore proto is not the reason people get stomped".
Bit if a silly statement don't you think?
Er...no. I'm not comparing anything, I'm saying I do better with a non-proto fit than I do in a proto fit. Whether I'm running them solo or not.
I am currently enjoying the debate between Nirwanda amd Thor atm though

Count me in!
Only way I see this backfiring is that the loud mouthed big corp proto runners may just see this as an opportunity to mow us all down like grass...but hey, all kinds of fun to be had!

If they are destroying you HARD in PRO gear, most likely they will destroy you hard in militia gear too, just slightly less so.
I've just made my mlt fit for next month, now to test it!

I've just made my mlt fit for next month, now to test it! My Quafe Assault fit is this if you're looking for one. 100% free. Quafe Assault Dren/Exile/Toxin Assault Rifle (Forgot which one) Syndicate SMG MLT Damage mod BPO MLT Armor Plates MLT Armor Repairer x2 MLT Injector That's not full mlt though Thanks anyway, but then again, I don't have any Quafe stuff except a random Methana I got from a box on Warlords day one...
What I like most about this event, is that in terms of suit, if a vet and a newberry have the same fitting, sp investment matters for bugger all. Gonna be one hell of an interesting month. Unless every game is like the test game I just had. Entire team of bluebs, against a pack of 10 reds who roamed constantly.

Read up, it's not a ccp official event, just something Nirwanda Vaughns wants to set up.

I don't think it's the fact that people have prototype suits, but more that you get 5 or more people running proto and travelling in a group. Attacking one flares the attention of the entire group, which fires upon a player with prototype weapons.
Again, no squad public matches.. So people that want to squad would do what? PC and FW? If they do this they should remove skirmish as a public gamemode as there is no reason or purpose for a skirmish if it's all solo players. People that wanted squads could run regular public matches, people who don't want squads could run squad free public matches. Skirmish would work just fine without running squads if they team members knew what they were doing. The point of having no squad public matches as an extra option is to prevent stomping. Why not just address the fact that the problem is with people choosing to deploy over and over again solo in a game geared towards squad and team play? I don't think there is a problem with running solo in a game geared towards squad/team play IF you accept that you are running at a disadvantage and gear your play style accordingly. There is no problem running solo. I always run solo in pubs, I only ever squad up in MinFW. With that Non-Proto Fit at the beginning of this thread, I often top the board on my team, sometimes both teams, and that's running solo.
