CallMeNoName PIXXXIE 34	Posted - 2015.09.06 20:58:00 - [1] - Quote Hey guys, I've been playing with a FG for a REALLY long time, and almost always went with an Amarr Sentinel. I just wanted to know, is the Amarr sentinel good for the FG in general? I use it for a mixture on AV and anti-infantry, and prefer getting up close to my targets. I've been using an the Amarr Senti for the longest of times, but am wondering if another race would be better to use in general.

Sicerly Yaw Corrosive Synergy No Context 993	Posted - 2015.09.06 21:16:00 - [4] - Quote generally the fg is meant to be used on a cal sent as it is caldari weaponry meant to be used mostly at range and the long charge times make it mostly a peeking weapon so the cal sent is best for that however if you chose to use any other sentinel suit thats perfectly fine it all depends on how you want to play if you want to get up close and personal then generally and assault FG with either a good regen suit when running solo or high tank if running with a logi for ranged anti infantry generally a cal sent with the vanilla FG so you can line up shots easily for up close and personal any other sentinel is good the min is best for positioning while the gal is the best for solo regen and the amarr is the best for tank with a logi and up close and personal the assault FG is recommended however it does require you to have more skill in aiming and timing shots as well as leading shots and just in general takes more skill and effort to use it to its full potential while it remains the best for AV if you can mange to get the hang of it and consistently land shots as it has less charge time but its not able to hold a charge as I am sure you are aware of click here if you are making a new account and want some free BPO's

Min and Gal are the best on the ground , meaning .. you can hit the field and be about as effective as you can with a forge , Min because you have that speed and maneuverability ( nice bonuses as well with one for the shield and one for the armor ) and the Gal you have the self reps with nice defensive bonuses . Cal is long range unless you have a logi or two next to you , your stamina and stamina regen isn't that good as well as having the least self reps and only ONE low slot . Amarr is fine if your on the ground with their bonuses as well as you can armor rep with a decent amount of tank but the fact that they aren't strong in the high slot makes them the least effective IMO and it's funny that their given the FG in the mix , just shows how the DEV's don't play the game and know zero about what they develop . I like all heavies and I play both , Commando and Sentinel as well as Logistics , I spend time enough following them but this is IMO and just that . For me I like the Min / Gal but I went full racial , so I use the Cal . Teamwork is really important - said the Tyrannosarus Rex from Kung Fury .

Megaman Trigger OSG Planetary Operations 697	Posted - 2015.09.07 00:12:00 - [10] - Quote Cal is probably the best Forge suit because of it's superior shield regen potential making it a nightmare to drop at range or CQC (if there's cover) That said, I do use the Gal if I plan to CQC Forge, usually AFG for close Tank hunts or pushing an objective, because of it's armour and reps. I use Cal for range Forges or just free fits. Purifier. First Class.

You seem to really care, trying to make yourself seem the superior keyboard warrior saying you have 80m SP and wasted over 40$ on repecs, which really doesn't make sense as you did not mention anything related whatsoever to Forge Gunning. Also, what was nice to know? The fact that others don't want advertisements on their threads? And yeah, sure, keep your "advice" to yourself next time.

Let me get this right , you try to check me on saying something to someone else about something that they mentioned , after I gave my advice to you after YOU ASKED .?. what a jerk , I mean I didn't think about trying to get people to trade with me using your thread , that wasn't my intention understand that , it was all being caught up in the moment . I make threads about helping newer players , I talk about how Q's and big name corps are ruining the game by doing so and making this game less fun for newer players and yes , I mentioned my SP's but that was just to make a point , I could do another respec and use all OFC gear if I choose to and now you wanna try to belittle me .?. your a joke , frack you and trying to give you advice , instead of understand ... man just forget it . I'm not even going to come at you like that , it's not my style ... think what you like bout me because from what your saying now , your wrong . Enjoy .

Breakin Stuff Goonfeet Special Planetary Emergency Response Group 10	Posted - 2015.09.07 09:58:00 - [16] - Quote Any sentinel is good for forge. Damage mods are mostly placebo except on the breach. Caldari recovers fastest. Minsent is fastest. Amarr and gal are capable of taking a STD forge shot (unmodded and not skill maxed) without dying instantly. ADV and PRO still instapaste them. WoW has taught me that Purple means Legendary. This means Quafe suits are the optimal loadout for killing all of you.

Jack Boost Zarena Family 938	Posted - 2015.09.07 11:18:00 - [19] - Quote I still sugest cal sentinel (CK0). (advance tier you can use too) In some way is unique. This depleted shield regen in 1 sec. If you configure it to maximize shield regen (around 70-80HP/s) you can join fight at rooftops. If sniper hit you you can take cover, 'fast' regen and continue fight with ADS or Tanks. (coninue firing is the key of fight) Also you can counter sniper (but no fork or thales cus OHK on any sentinel) or ignore it for AV fighting time. This works But be varned that this depleted shield regen don't help you much in CQC. If you miss FG shot or there is more then one infranty you are dead. Also I suggest use AFG. Fast charge is a key for me to AV. Average+ speed help a little too (at heavy class) (climbing hils, taking cover etc) Some tips: Be quick, Be avare Keep distance. Not much time left...

Shooter was running a Caldari CKO two or three well placed shots should be doing about as much but insta pop is doubtful it is more likely that you took damge over time from that person making it read that much as the assault FG only does about 2k damge per shot to armor with the right fit a bit more if you hit weak spots but there's no possible way an assault fg can do that amount of damge in a single shot it likely takes 3 at the least while it would only take about two well placed shots from a breach FG as it can do 3k to armor plus the bonus to whatever weak spot click here if you are making a new account and want some free BPO's
