the reason the issue is stacked in favor of the AR is the fact that both weapons accuracy are inverse.
ARs start with almost 100% accuracy and then open up, hence the 90% accuracy in the time it takes to kill a heavy.
The heavy starts with a massive cylinder of fire that tightens, so most of the shots miss the assault then tighten up, hence the 60% accuracy over the time it takes to kill an assault.
the reason the AR wins 2/3 times is higher alpha damage. over sustained fire the HMG has advantage so the longer the fight goes the less chance the assault has of winning. But my EK-38 pumps out a kill spray faster than an MH-82 tightens to killing focus.
also not factored is the fact that heavies slow down moving when charging a forge gun or firing an HMG.
It's kinda like the blasters Vs. railguns thing.
Rails get higher alpha but if the blasters get close and spend a few seconds firing first a rail tank is toast. |

it wouldn't take a huge HP boost at worst. Maybe 20% even would be too high.
But what heavies need is active repair modules that operate similarly to HAV armor repair units that have a cooldown. scouts need more speed. past that another option would be to give heavies one more low slot. |

I play logi secondary.
i'm just as lethal with a sever logi suit with mass driver as most people are with HMGs. but I also set up shots for maximum pain.
the problem is that most people run right at their opponents.
If I'm running at you it means I'm being a lemming and the real threat's flanking you (or I think it's flanking you) |

And yes, scout is broken. A scout can sneak up on a heavy, hit him square in the back, and the heavy will have time to turn and mow him down before he gets a third hit off.
I want about .3-.5 more base speed on scouts. It's .1 faster then the version with the additional slot and still slower then any Assault. Again, im not trying to be critical of the Assault but "Dem's da numbers."
the proto logi suit with complex kinetic catalyzers is the fastest dropsuit in the game. This is pretty typical for minmatar equipment. |

we need the other racial basic suits in order for a solid comparison.

it's a stealth "buff heavy and scout proto suits" thread.
because endgame logis are absolutely potent when you specialize them. You can stack four shield extenders and four armor plates, or four reppers, or something equally silly on them.
but heavies are pretty much meat socks at the proto level. seen the end of the last closed beta build. proto logi, scout and assault all over the place in pubmatches.
never saw a single proto heavy. |
