Edau Skir2 Nefantar Raiders 557	Posted - 2015.02.21 12:46:00 - [1] - Quote This is talking about heavies vs heavies, so bear with it. Firstly, all Sents mainly use HMGs, one of only two heavy weapons. These are of course projectile weapons. All Sents get bonuses, but what makes them so unbalanced is that the Amarr and Gallente Sentinels get bonuses AGAINST Projectiles vs Armor, whereas Caldari and Minmatar do not get any bonuses against Projectiles whatsoever, just Hybrid/Laser. Now if there were Hybrid/Laser Heavy weapons (Gatling Laser anyone?), this would be a little more balanced. But as it stands now, in a straight up sent fight, Gal/Amarr Sents will wreck the other two in no time at all. Thoughts on possible balancing tweaks? Discuss Logistics mk.0 / Logibro's Modified Logistics mk.0

Discuss I believe your assessment is incomplete and not entirely accurate. Some parts of it are OK but your assessment of plasma/laser making it easier for shield suits to even the odds vs. Armor is ccounterintuitive. In my experience, Hmg is 50/50 between a calsent and amsent In who kills wwho because the HMG does 15% less to shields. But it really boils dow to who fires first. AV

But also bear in mind, that an Amarr/Gal sent at Dropsuit Level 5 gets a 10% Projectile damage reduction vs Armor. Plus as they are both Armor tanking suits, it's pretty much cancelling out the Proj bonus vs armor. I'll explain again. I think adding Laser & Hybrid heavy weapons will definitely even the playing field. Not by races using their own weaponry, because that will never happen, players will use whatever they want to. But by allowing Minmatar and Caldari Sents to have a weapon that is as effective against Gal/Amarr as the HMG is now against Min/Cal. Logistics mk.0 / Logibro's Modified Logistics mk.0
Joseph Ridgeson WarRavens 3256	Posted - 2015.02.21 13:41:00 - [5] - Quote There's more to it beyond that. Gallente and Amarr Sentinels also happen to be able to pull over 1,000 Armor which allows Logistics to benefit them more than if they were Caldari or Minmatar. Amarr is 15% Armor Resistance against Projectiles and 10% Shield Resistance with Rail. Adding in a weapon that is +20/-20 would be far worse at killing them than even a weapon that is -15/0. If we assume that Forge Guns are the only Rail Weapon, then nothing really changes as anyone hit with a Forge Gun tends to go bye-bye. A +10/-10 Blaster weapon is likewise worse than than the HMG. For Gallente, it is the same. +15 Rail and +10 Projectile Armor Resistance. We run into the same problem: +10/-10 and +20/-20 is worse than -15/+5 against Gallente as they are so Armor focused. Arguing that "Gallente and Amarr Sentinels are unbalanced because the weapons that they are naturally strong against are not in the game" is very strange indeed. "This is B.S! This is B.S! I paid money! Cash money, dollars money, cash money!"
Joel II X Bacon with a bottle of Quafe 6306	Posted - 2015.02.21 13:46:00 - [6] - Quote Caldari Sentinels and arguably the Minmatar as well, use shields as their main tank, so they have an innate 15% resistance against it.

Thats not my point at all, my point is that Gal and Amarr Sents have armor resists against the only viable heavy weapon for other Sents. Put a Minmatar sent against am Amarr Sent, with the same health, the same damage, and the same level of suit skill, and the Amarr will win. That's what makes them unbalanced.

Potentially, but with the current ScR issues, Armor tanking has become more common. I mean, if the devs ever pay heed to the demands for Racial weapon parity, we'll no doubt have Heavy Laser and Rail weapons (Not Forge) soon anyway. Logistics mk.0 / Logibro's Modified Logistics mk.0

Mexxx Dust-Slayer Negative-Feedback 329	Posted - 2015.02.21 14:34:00 - [11] - Quote Assuming that the HMG damage profile significantly benefits the shield tankers and is the balancing factor is ignorance. The gal/amarr sentinels also have 487 and 450 shields respectively that are benefited by the HMG damage profile, this equates to 560 and 517 eHP against HMG respectively. Whereas the cal and min's armour (487 and 575) equates to 341 and 403 eHP against the HMG. 3 extender cal sent fit = 1346 eHP vs HMG 4 ferro amarr sent fit = 1435 eHP vs HMG 3 ferro gal sent fit = 1283 eHP vs HMG 2 extender min sent fit = 1159 eHP vs HMG I haven't factored in damage mods either but the amarr has the most eHP and deals the second most damage (1 damage mod less than the gal). The amarr sentinel is the best sentinel overall. From my PC experience, the HMG heat nerf has made the amarr sent being the best gap a lot wider - it is now far more harder to down an amarr heavy that is on reps in my cal sent since I have to be cautious with the HMG heat, in the time that I wait for the HMG to cool down a bit the amarr sent has repped at least a third of his armour back however, the min sent with a burst HMG seems to be the best counter but is also extremely hard compared to being an amarr sent on reps. The only buffs I could see helping is giving the gal/cal better base regen to compensate.

And how does adding a weapon that Gallente and Amarr are more resistant to going to fix this? Lasers are +20/-20. Projectiles against Amarr work out to be -15/+0. Which is a better weapon to use? Blasters are +10/-10. HMG's are -15/+0. Which is better to use when Amarr have much more Armor than Shields? Put another way: "Even with the 15% or 10% Armor resistance against Projectiles, it is still a better way to kill the Armor focused Gallente and Amarr Sentinels than Laser Weapons or Blaster Weapons."

Breakin Stuff Goonfeet Special Planetary Emergency Response Group 7353	Posted - 2015.02.21 14:53:00 - [13] - Quote There's more to it. The caldari sentinel is by far the LEAST dependent upon native or logi repair. Operating as an ambusher or pointman tends to work best. But max caldari (with necessary cores plus armor skills all at 5) is comparable in utility to the amsent, easily able to trade HMG fire for HMG fire without any feeling of futility. Inroutinely use my quafe calsent to cut down proto amsents. The minsent doesn't work when put in the typical sentinel role. It is a **** poor defensive suit but a phenomenal skirmisher and can be used as a moderately slow assault. Combined wwith the burst HMG the minsent is ideal for running side by side with assaults. The galsent is the oddball. I've had remarkable luck damping it, putting scan range extender, a rep, two damage mods and playing ambusher for assault suits. But I'm weird. AV

You probably feel this way because 90% of pub heavies are bad. The amarr sentinel has more eHP than the cal sent and ideally deals more damage. The amarr sent is superior in 1v1, the cal sent is useful for brawling with already low on HP amarr sentinels then running away to regen.

Believing that this is the balancing factor is ignorant. That innate resistance equates to about 10% or 6% resistance depending on which armour heavy you go up against (damage mods). The armour heavies also have shields that benefit from this resistance which is likely to not be contested by damage mods when going against shield heavies.
Big miku Nation of Miku 410	Posted - 2015.02.21 15:18:00 - [16] - Quote I've been running min minsent, proto and std, and it just feels to slow and too tender.. You can stack kinkats to achieve 7.44 sprint speed at the behest of fitting anything else or you can use one and make a somewhat decent fit that is still out preformed in a stand up fight and only slightly faster than another heavy. I understand what they were trying to do, make a fast DPS hose, but as I said, it is too slow without having to gimp your fits. What did CCP want the minsent to be? Fast damage hose, shield tanker, omni tanker, something in-between? Whatever it is, it is out preformed by every other sent.

The armour heavies also have shields that benefit from this resistance which is likely to not be contested by damage mods when going against shield heavies. Exactly I use the min sentinel in pc where as mex uses the call sentinel I know this :p and I can happily say and I think many agree the amar gets too much shield 450?! That's insane, it's not viable to armour stack shield heavies the hitbox is so large our shields will melt then the armour is gone instantly. The bonus to the shield heavies isn't enough, that's how I see it. When you verse an amar heavy, the six kin which I use takes forever the first burst is mainly the shield then you go in to armour with the same resistance.. Whereas call and min? When the shield is gone bye bye and it is not viable to shield tank honestly, you win a fight? And regeneration is crap. You'll die on the second fight unless you play speed. So let's say a call heavy around 800 shield and that's without Dmg mods. Which the gal and amar use.. The min I don't use shield what's the point? I want shield heavies to have a resistance to flux grenades and a higher resistance to lazer and plasma. And there is no point hating this post I run all heavy suits and amar is most comfy suit iv ever seen and the min is my baby haha :p Swaglord of dust Role model - valwhore CEO thedick "oh no he took my lucky charms"

Armor heavies have around 400 shields, while the Caldari can reach up to what? Low 700s? That 300 makes a huge difference when going up against another HMG, so what is your point again?

Ardos 130297 Prima Gallicus 2	Posted - 2015.02.21 15:38:00 - [21] - Quote Personaly, I play the Minmatar sent with a cardiac regulator, kinetic and burst HMG, the sprint speed and the sprint time are very powerfull on this dropsuit. You straf, attack by the side or behind and destroy all other heavies ! If it's a caldari or an other you think you can lose the fight, the solution ? Flux grenade ! I have the Allotek version on my fit and i kill every heavies when they haven't shield. You do not win a war by making what is just... You win it by making what is necessary...

Izlare Lenix Pub Stars 1281	Posted - 2015.02.21 15:52:00 - [26] - Quote My min sent chews through gal/amarr sents very frequently in 1 v 1s. However since most amarr/gal sents are scubs and can't hmg without support they always seem to have logis attached to their ass so 1 v 1s can be rare against them. But there is an amazing thrill when I kill the scrub amarr/gal sent and his scrub logi. The only real truth in history is that it was bloody.
