The price jump from normal and type II proto suits is completely outrageous.

the real problem here is there are not enough heavies. Mr. Zitro hates them so please please every start using them. Also he really loves it when you drive an LAV towards him and jumped out.

I honestly love doing that.... Drive your LAV past the redline, cap a few fools, get back in and drive away:D

They need more slots, armor, and CPU/PG tojustify the cost in SP and ISK for heavy suits tbh. A general across the board buff

I see no reason ever to go beyond T1 stats suits, simply because ever since the change to reduce uber guys killing everyone they all have the same armour and shield amounts.

I have also noticed there is a huge jump in price with the heavy dropsuits vs scout, assault, or logistics. While heavys should be more expensive overall, I'm not sure if going from 80k a dropsuit (proto heavy vk0) to 240k (proto heavy vk1) is balanced.

Although I could be wrong and that vk1 is just that powerful? O.o

In any case, I agree with them being more expensive than other dropsuits but the scaling of the heavy dropsuit seems too expensive. Still working up to a proto heavy suit however.

Just checked the prices of assault suit type-II variants. I should rage, right? I should. *Looks at corp tag* I'll do it in a closet later >_>

Awww! Sota, you do not need to hide your rage in the closet. You can rage. Just remember to Brooklyn Rage! when you do. That way it is epic, and funny. Ha-ha. I'm serious though. You should not be afraid to rage out once in a while. Zion TCD or otherwise. Just remember to keep it well.. Chilled I suppose. Hard to aptly describe here, but you know what I mean. I hope.

Anyway I agree, and this is coming from someone whom is not a 'Heavy' class soldier. The dent in a 'Heavies' pay stub is steep. Utterly too steep if you ask me. Especially considering how much they have to dump into skills alone as it stands. Being or even wanting to be a 'Heavy' class soldier (Duster) is pretty much a kick to the balls, and handicaped. It's like playing Demon's Souls with one hand. It sort of feels like CCP does not want 'Heavies' in their game. That is my honest opinion. Especially considering how hard it is on them, and how hard it is to be a proper 'Heavy' in-game even. It's worst then playing an LJN game. Yeah it's that bad. I'm an 'Assault' class and I call it "easy mode". Simply because, it is. That said the game itself is so utterly unbalanced at the moment it's like being thrown into a 32X title, and told play it smiling. It's not a lot of fun. I love Dust514, but the fact remains there is a lot to overcome in this beta and this build. It's a mess and that is me being generous. Being a 'Heavy' though is as I said; getting kicked in the balls repeatedly. CCP are you biased towards 'Heavies'? Seems like it.

Increased PG/CPU and slots means you can equip more and better stuff to buff the suits.

The best fitting you can manage with a Standard Heavy suit will still be a LOT easier to drop than the best fitting you can make with a Proto Heavy.

Lol he rages at me every time i catch him with it. Its really the only way to compete with proto assults for us heavys. Cant run proto armor so we wont survive the extremely slow sprint to close the distance to the proto AR, thats really our only option. No other real way for us to counter that other than a lucky close quarters encounter around the corner. Wish he understood that

Is once we get to level 4 on our suits, we may as well stop. Do you really believe 60 or so more CPU is worth 250,000 ISK? It's not, even with another mod.

they run like a fat person eating cake...
