Why can't you do the same for the shielded suits? Not to mention armor is more vulnerable to explosive damage and they're slower. I must be really missing something. My main problem is the advanced suit being an armor suit. I just don't see any use for them.

your not looking at it right then, because if you level your skill up one more time you CAN get an advanced shield suit

although i totally agree.. armor heavy is totally overrated and shield heavy is far superior

Right, at level IV. You've got the armor suit at lvl III. I really wasn't clear on that point, little too tired and typing a little too fast. Any of the advanced armor suits really are inferior and don't really have a purpose. The other classes are going to have some uses for this stuff, but the advanced armor suits really just seem to be thrown in there. Especially if you missed the beta it's just going to be confusing. There seriously is never a time to use the advanced armor suit. I'm glad they moved away from every level of the dropsuit skill getting you better or different armor. Except these heavy suits were just nerfed and forgotten, leading right back to the SP dumped in to lvl III not even marginally useful.

armor ones need more armor..... that way armor ones could tank harder, but would be more weakend by combat and the shield heavy wouldnt be quite as tough, but would be more flexible due to being able to enter combat again at 100% quicker

If we only had hybrid, tje high slots would be filled with shield extenders, thus reducing how effective the forge gun can truly be. Just my .02 on the idea
