How the hell are you effected by this? A Gunnlogi is a Shield Tank, they nerfed armor. The Swarms thing may be effecting you, but leave the bloody Forgers alone, they NEED this.

Come back when you know what you are talking about. High end shield amps went from 25% to 15%.

Almost no one uses shield resistance amplifiers, never have I witnessed one being activated. It's like saying they nerfed the Scrambler Pistol and saying that Assault suits are now useless. Meanwhile, they nerfed the passive armor resist modules, and armor doesn't even HAVE an equivalent to Resistance amplifiers

In summary, Shield lost a bit from something extra that Armor doesn't have, armor lost something that everyone uses, and you are kittening about the nerf to shields? You need to return after learning exactly how idiotic you sound.

...wow. passive shield resists is what I am talking about, so STFU. A shield tank has no more armor than a armor tank does shield, quit whining.

High end shield amps went from 25% to 15%. They did the same to armor, but armor actually has the weaknesses of not having shields and constantly burning, while taking burn damage. Shield lost a bit from something, armor lost the same something, and you are kittening about the nerf to shields, who don't burn to death from lack of shield energy, and have higher resists to explosives anyway? You need to return after learning exactly how idiotic you sound.

A shield tank has no more armor than a armor tank does shield, quit whining. I noticed what they were after posting, forgive the slight, but refer to the edited post. You take less from swarms anyway, and you don't die in a fire by using your primary tanking methods, so you still have enough of an advantage. Besides, you don't lose anything from your other modules either, like armor tanks lose speed for trying to get more HP. The problem with my reasoning came from CCP Frame saying 'active shield hardeners' in his post. Now I know there is no such thing, so... yea, the kitten did he mean?

Zero Harpuia Maverick Conflict Solutions 422	Posted - 2012.09.14 18:07:00 - [5] - Quote And I just compared them. Shield Booster 1 110 HP per pulse 5 pulses 1 pulse every second 30 second recharge Armor Repair 1 130HP per pulse 5 pulses 1 pulse every 3 seconds 30 second recharge So... it is now still stronger than the armor repair unit due to the pulse rate (and also therefore reaches the recharge phase faster), so... it used to be better?
