jump off of a high structure regular building height should be enough, with the shiled suit simply jump off and see how much damge you took, for the armor suit hold a flux till it detonates then jump and calculate the difference between the damge you took to armor and the damge you took to shields
as for what you said about being rammed with a DS, armor DS will always win a ramming contest at least in most cases with a few exceptions if you know how to deal with it
I was actually in an armor Ds... I had a couple in inventory and decided to try em out... Got rammed other DS survived...

Still, I wish people wouldnt do this just because they are loosing the fight.
I have a feeling this guy was the earlier ADS I was fighting, I was about to kill him, but he withdrew(He ran away like a little ***** after initiating the fight in the first place, I just kept wailing on him with my Missiles) I was distracted killing his team when all of a sudden boom I get rammed by a DS and I go down hard. Died with my ship... But its a serious pain when a mlt can do this, not even showing up on my mini map until he hit me.

On the flipside there are times I can morally justify ramming someone, sometimes its unavoidable in a dogfight, both pilots get so absorbed in shooting each other and staying on top of the target that it just ends up happening. And then theres what i call fancy fliers, who will flop and swing about spending 90% of their time being fancy instead of fighting, then run away the moment they take more than a few shots in a row. Those pilots I will ram with glee, because anyone that will only shoot at you while your back is turned is so risk adverse that they need to be punished harshly.
The only time to back down from a fight is to go back to your supply depot to get more ammo, also pilots aren't really prone to accidentally ramming each other...

My vast experience in ADS dogfighting begs to differ.
Really? I've been in a couple and the only ones that the ADSer rammed me was pretty much when they were about to die, they put those afterburners and just fly towards me..

I have a feeling you took me out before... You might be the reason why every LAV I see on the field I take out before it even drops out of the RDV...

Like something out of a video game/Movie. If only small blasters on ADS' actually worked, we could have those helicopter gunner scenes and the lav just barely dodging it. Then get like a background explosion like "BWAAAAHHH!"

That's actually one of the better evasive maneuvers if you can judge their trajectory cuz if you can move up on them fast but just miss them you'll over shoot them, gain the height advantage, and you'll be out of their LoS long enough for a full repair in most cases. But that same maneuver can easily wind up with both ships exploding.
Evasive maneuver? I do nothing but barrel rolls, backflips, and aerobatics. This works better and doesn't result in accidental rams.

Almost 100% win rate in Dogfights. Only losses was when an ADS had extra gunners and another time when I ran out of ammo in the middle of a fight

Well keep at it :3 Should I ever see you I'll show you why those evasive maneuvers aren't as good as they seem :3

Are you flying a python? cause yeah those will get love bumps from any incubus they get too close to, thats not so much getting rammed, its more akin to getting sand kicked in your face in a duel its not very honourable but you use the tools you have available in a scrap.
No I was winning a fight, he retreated. Moments later I get full forced rammed. People have no class
Also suicide anything should only be used by LAVs, or regular DS, but for a person who sunk a similar amount of sp into ADS, to use a cheap tactic. Very low class
