Are you seriously fronting that your the leader of the Guristas?

*sucks in breath through teeth and backs away slowly*

I'd suggest an anti missile system over directly destroying them.

Militia: fires one counter missile-missile

And plus one for every tier past that.

As a Swarm Launcher user I kind of like it. My only tweak to it would be to decrease armor lock time (by like 2-3 seconds), but increase all lock times with distance (acts like a wave, waves take time to move).

I mean a signature would be more dampened with distance.

As a vehicle user I don't like it. It means that my Myron is now worthless. The whole racial set up kind of means that a Caldari vehicle is now more prone to Swarms and forges and rails (because of the shield set up it has)

IGNORE: I thought you said extenders

Oops i meant shield extenders only

In that case, what would be your take on resistance amplifiers, crisis damage control mod, etc.?

They don't affect sig radius, I'm a bit "end of discussion" for keeping those awat from affecting sig radius

But you see now, there's an imbalance. When your HP remains the same, but your resistance goes up, it's basically like a shield extender except when your shields recharge, they are recharge more potential damage to be taken per recharge pulse.

For example, an uber shield extended vehicle vs. an uber resistant (shield) vehicle. They both take the same hit. One loses more HP, but it's a small proportion of total shields. The other loses less hp, in the same proportion though as the shield extender version (let's just say). However, when they're shields recharge, the one with the resistance amplifier wins, because it recharges the same HP, but it has greater resistance per HP, so it recharges more Potential Damage Taken (PDT). Without a signature, that's like an almighty win.

I like resistance amplifiers, but they make extenders purposeless.

But resistance amps don't raise ehp as much as shield extenders do, so this could be seen as an unnecessary nerf

But couldn't the resistance be seen as a boost to the amount of damage one can take?

I like the idea.

The only think I'd change is the lock on time for armor. It's very high. 7.5 seconds is just shy of the HMGs reload time. That's a long time to track a target as small and as fast as an LAV. They'd be behind cover as soon as you got the lock.
