I was Heavy AR running proto AR for 5-6 months. Probably more. It's not as effective as you think as I couldn't be competitive against assault players who knew what they were doing.
It really needs a mouse/keyboard so you can make every shot count - if you're shooting without hitting you're going to cry a lot. It's not cheap being heavy and putting on a weapon that limits your firepower to 60 shots a clip is going to get you into very rough situations. We can't run - only fight or die. HMG is made for that sort of combat - AR isn't.
So I'd say it's great for pub stomping and countering other heavies who don't have back up - and that's it. |

SO true
To OP: the AR heavy has been tried before by solid players...it fails in the end

I think it's because most players play like the same applies to them in every other suit.
It doesn't. |

IMO Why the hell would I want to use a Duvolle? For similar cost, and less CPU, I can use the MH82 HMG. It's much better than even a Duvolle at mowing down everybody within medium range or closer. Especially at mowing down multiple people. |

But to the heavy fit thing, Sota is right. Heavies can't play the AR very well because they move too slow and their hit box is too big. People tend to get intimidated by a heavy suit and they run to get range, thinking it has an HMG, and the AR knocks them down. That's typically where the AR heavies kills come from.
Also, the turn speed on a heavy with an AR is slower than an assault suit with an AR. That can either be beneficial or detrimental depending on how fast/slow you like your turn speed. |

There's this one guy, Jack Boots or something, he makes it relatively effective, but it's not as useful as you'd think it would be surprisingly. The thing is, in close range, a Heavy can pray and spray away most people with an HMG, but with AR its nearly impossible. Also, ammo is scarce. |

Heavy ar isnt as good as Assault Ar because hitbox and lack of strafing ability.
Heavies would have it hard to beat a good assault at midrange because the assault can strafe but the heavy cant. |

It's a good combination among others.
Hvy+AR evades some of the HMGs (range+reload) weaknesses, but brings in some heavy suits own ones (strafe, running speed). Of course you get some bonuses as well. |

Probably players used to how sniper rifles work in CoD. In that game they can run around and quick scope someone without thought. The cross hair doesn't even have to be on you or slightly leading you; it can be an inch or two behind you and still kill you.
That's why snipers don't bother me in this game unless half my team is comprised of them. |

Seriously, if it's so easy mode, why don't you use it? In fact, why haven't I seen this combo often since every gaming community tend to gravitate towards the easy mode / OP stuff.
Why haven't I seen heavies using this combo go 100-0 yet? I mean it's suppose to be easy mode right? If tankers can go 40, 50+ then surely this suit set up can be easier than that.

And that's right. Imho If you have a decent aim it might make this game a bit easier. If you'r good at aiming and you always keep in mind that you can't strafe properly it makes you a killing machine. Really. |

No? Well, I don't think it's an "easy mode". You just die less, make a bit less kill and save some ISK.... It's just like the heavy with a sniper. |

How much less do you think you die using an AR? Have you tried this set up out or are you just speculating? Have you ever tried a heavy suit?
If you're a heavy, you'll know using an AR is not some magical solution to die less my friend. Playing REALLY defensive maybe.
Please, redline snipers in general die less. |

If anything - limiting yourself to a weapon that highlights your classes imperfections would mean you'd die more often trying to get into combat with players whose suit is designed specifically for the weapon almost.
AR Heavies have my respect - they're walking dump trucks waiting for someone who knows what they're doing to come pwn them. Otherwise it's a pub stomp suit - so I wouldn't build an ego over it. *Not that you are* |

Still comes down to how easy mode it really is.
Maybe you weren't in closed beta when swarm launchers were OHK infantry with dumb fire...THAT was easy mode, and it was made clear by the amount of people using swarms against infantry.
So I ask again, since it's THAT easy, where's all the people using it? Where's all the people getting 40+, 50+ with this combo? |

Assuming equal skill level:

Experienced Heavy < Experienced Assault
Pro Heavy <<< Pro Assault
Heavy suits are definitely beginner friendly, but they're a lot harder to use against more skilled opponents. Easy to use, hard to master. Proto heavy suits also suck... so yeah.

It really needs a mouse/keyboard so you can make every shot count - if you're shooting without hitting you're going to cry a lot. It's not cheap being heavy and putting on a weapon that limits your firepower to 60 shots a clip is going to get you into very rough situations. We can't run - only fight or die. HMG is made for that sort of combat - AR isn't.
So I'd say it's great for pub stomping and countering other heavies who don't have back up - and that's it. This. |

I've ran into it a few times so far...
Been seeing a lot more heavies lately. IMHO 1v1 with a heavy using AR, in an assault suit with AR is pretty damn difficult when its a up close battle unless the heavy is bad. Ran into one good heavy that used an AR and was able to almost win a 1v1 against him, on both occasions we both had full health and full HP. Though the guys only deaths were from dying to another player right after our gunfights, so it was a competent player. IDK how I'd expect it to work on a constant basis though, but from what I've seen it's a fairly effective set up.
I wouldn't call it OP, but I wouldn't be against trying it myself. |

First off: don't throw the "if you know what you're doing" argument in my face, I do know what I'm doing, check my stats on the leaderboards if you have to confirm this.
Secondly: Yes its true, I met a squad of 3 fatsuit AR guys +1 Logi and they played tight and had good aim, so yeah, a litttle butthurt I might be. It was quite clear that these guys were using KB/M kombo, they were extremely accurate and had a surprisngly high strafeing speed.
And I have tried this combo on my "Another fat Bastard" alt and I do think its way to easy t just go in there, gun blazing and simply out tank anyone. An almost 3 KDR on a character with very little skillpoints and not least using a basic tactical assault rifle which almost no one uses cause its utter crap.
If I'd skilled that character up to 4M skillpoints instead of my main I believe I could easily have gottten a 10+ KDR. You don't see many getting 40-50 kills simply because its a slow moving build dependant on others or ammo dumps to resupply. You do however see many of them going 15-0.
And lastly: I have not called it op, and I have not asked for any change. I merely think that most of these guys who use it aren't as good as they might think.... Its easy mode.

nope not really I can dodge most rounds he can't, also I rep faster, an AR heavy may be good against one play of equal skill, but loses against one of better skill or more then one opponent almost every time.
not to mention is less useful on the field then a scout, tho we will see what bonuses the heave with out a H slot has that might be powerfull as ****. |

From long time I run only this hybrid. If you think about shinny glory of it.. just try. Easy mode: no
It can be useful: yes.
The only one thing on plus is more hp.. and only this. This is not for 'man I fight you around 30 sec and you still alive'. But for getting surprised and you get additional about 300ms to decide what is your next move/target/etc. Wrong choice you are dead. Your HP buff dissappear and you dead. Be aware what you do, where and timing. Be cool and precise. Anyway you dead.
Pros: Little hp buff for more time to decision.
Cons: Heavy :( (regen, ammo, move/turning, no jump at all, from type-II to proto not enough slots to counter adv and proto assault dropsuit) AR - soon not enough DPS for combat.
And I can tell more about balancing: Heavy + AR < Heavy HMG - in close to far mid. Hit box and move speed. So easy things for assault dont work here. I must relay on my DPS and precision. No way to outcome DPS from HMG
Assault + AR < Heavy + AR - any range for AR. Hit box and move speed - again. Things that you can do for type+II assault you cant do to adv/prot assault. Why? Same weapon? When you barley hit assault with all clip, he just put all into you. No fast regen, little work and you loose any fight. If you dont have decent DPS .. forget. But How you can do more DPS in 2 slots ad far less CPU/PG? (Dead end?: yes)
So CCP if you read this. Show little love for decent heavy dropsuit. And give 1-2 slot more and additional amount of CPU/PG for it. Heavy can back to do things that you design. Win 1 to 1 and loose in 2+ to 1. Now this is broken.
If you cry now for heavies (any), you will cry for assault soon when people skill up for adv and proto dropsuits.
If you can manage hard time when you are heavy (any), welcome and have fun with us.
P.S. And yes KingBabar ;) you can play better. |

A decent reply!!!!
Yes I can always play better, there is always room for improvement. I did get a 13-3 round if I remember correctly last time I faced the Polish wing, so not that bad. It is however very frustrating to face 3 of you at the same time...
I guess my question is JB, why use it then? If the only benefit is the HP (Which is quite the big benefit mind you) then why do you use it instead of an AR suit? You could carry a nanohive or a medkit and help your team out better and get more kils. Would your KDR go above the around 7 something you have now when using an assault suit? I'd like to see it.
And for the record, I have tried running a fatsuit AR comvbo and I found it to be way too easy, even with the useless tactical AR. If I had OMS or a logi available I'd use a 60 round AR and I honestly think I would dominate the field.... Like you guys do... |

Going to agree with Jack on some points. The fit is very useful, especially to provide heavy sniper an easy branch for when assault is needed. Been playing 50-50 sniper and assault, and even unspecced and pretty bad in cqc I make it work. Head on with another heavies seems to be the hardest fight, as you cannot dodge a forge blast and you soak a ton of HMG rounds due to fat.
Shield build + armor build allows nice supply depot juggling, and the shield build with p2w grenades eats other fatties regularly. That said, the regen timers are not too good. |

For now it is only SP shortage. As I mention before for some reason heavy is dead end now. We stil at begining of our way in the Dust. No one knows where this road follow. I can (I think) do more in future skilling only AR and heavy for now and jump over any nice nerf that CCP make.
My target will be adv assault or prot logi for more easy mode ;)
BTW: try scout with AR so much fun.

I was having a certain personal vendetta with a fatsuit a while back. The problem got solved when someone drove over him. |

The word "crutch" has been thrown around a lot on these forums...
HEAVY with a Duvolle, GEK, Killswitch, HK4M Shotgun, Shotgun, Laser rifle, sniper rifle... Seen it all...
Personally, a HEAVY with anything other than HMG or FORGE is gay... |
