Interesting, every time I've seen a caldari sentinel its been a proto. Still goes down though, my ScR eats that shield like it eats the booty.

I've been solo playing heavy for years, it has never once changed outside of vehicle meta influencing our defensive positions.
Even when the HMG shot at SG range with marshmallows *Uprising 1.0* the heavy was quite capable at taking anyone solo, and if you're literally by yourself and your enemy isn't you deserve your death.

Flawed premises and lies are a great way to start a discourse. I have no pity for your HMG / sentinel woes, it sounds like you have a serious case of the bads. it sounds like you have the serious case of the butthurt scout who has been stomped by heavys for to long. but don't worry my little damped friend i still make scouts pee their pants when my assault HMG starts to feed.

I have had very good luck soloing with the Caldari sentinel. YES!!! I said caldari which I happen to like more than the Ammar. I do have to admit that the ammar sentinel looks many times better and it comes in different cool color scheme.
I like the caladari because of its fast shield regen. Put at least one energizer and either a regulator or a repair mod and you are golden. You have to play the caldari as a scout. You sneak around corners and spray the enemy with bullets. Then you hide for a bit and before you know it you are back at full health so you can attack again. I find that I was dying the most on the second or 3rd encounter. Once I tried the caldari the second and sometimes 3rd encounter where no longer a problem because my health would had been replenished. Also, since I don't use armor plates the caladari sent moves rather fast. I mean, it is not a scout but for protecting small areas the movement is good enough. In contrast the ammar takes more initial punishment BUT!!!! a second round feels impossible if you don't have someone repping you.
Like someone else mentioned earlier you need a good secondary weapon. I haven't tried the scrambler pistol so I can't say anything about it either way. However, the bolt pistol even at the most basic level does wonders. Especially if you can get a head shot. HMG for short range, bolt for distance. A deadly combo.
People have also had good luck with the minmatar heavy. I haven't tried it but, I can see why they would like it. It has fast mobility and that fits that play style. It could be the case that you are using the wrong heavy. |

Soloing with fatties is quite simple to do. Just use the Proto basic Minmatar Heavy frame, 2 kincats, 3 myofibrils, and a burst hmg. |

It could be the case that you are using the wrong heavy. I don't know If I'm using the "wrong" heavy, it's just... I chose to be gallente because I liked how their suits looked, I went for galassault for my first suit and gallogi was my first proto suit. The galscout was my most used dropsuit and after CCP refunded dropsuit SP when they introduced the racial commando's and sents I just took the SP from my proto logi and spread it so I could have level 3 on all galsuits... I've been trying to turn them all into proto suits since that day and have found myself investing vast amounts of SP into gallentean weaponry in particular with the AR since it was the first weapon I ever got a kill with. In the end I never chose my suits based on the playstyles they were good at, I simply liked the appearances of my gallente suits and kept skilling into them. I just need level 5 for my proto galassault and level 4 and 5 to reclaim my proto gallogi and I will have achieved my long running goal of having all gallentean proto suits and weapons... well, that and the Ion Pistol.

Yep sure cusetown. I play every type of caldari suit on mina, and have an alt for every race that is also skilled into every suit, but of course I'm just 'butthurt' about sentinels because I dared bring facts into a discussion that contradicted someones 'feelings'.
Instead of simply being sarcastic, I'll try to 'argue' like you do. You're a ****ing idiot go back to your moronic hugbox where facts don't matter and you can fellate each others 'feelings'.

No , Hell no , **** no , your momma should smack you!
I just watched one mop up a very good gallente FW team I was on the other day , with just 1 logi on his ass... almost 50 kills, so nope... it's working just fine. Don't use a big ass slow moving dude with a short range weapon if you want to go solo is my only suggestion, figure something out.. cus your idea sucks.
Use a forge gun if your rolling solo in that thing as someone already suggested.. or be more tactical with your HMG wielding fat arse if you think you should be a solo death machine. |
