Meh... Proto suit does not = god mode. One little flux grenade and a few MD and you die like the rest.

Okay cool. Unless you plan to share your set-up, though, I doubt anyone but you cares.

You underestimate me.

P.S. Good job CCP for making a great suit, I would write some paragraphs describing the Logi's full potential but I fear others would eventually use it against me.

Its no secret that you can get 1000+ HP on a Logi lol

Oh I know the possibilities as we have discussed many times in Corp chat, Ill have B-series this week and then work towards proto next. How long did it take from B-series to Proto? 2 weeks or 3?

BTW GJ on getting the suit soon, can't wait to see you beast in it.

LUL'z whats better 1000 HP or 4 damage complex damage mods ?

2.5 With both boosters running. 2 if you manage to get about 150 1500 WP games

Um I reallly like using 4 damage mods but its best not to get used to them 1.55 x damage is really cool with any weapon. I can take out Suryas with 2-3 swarm volleys.

I use 2 damage mods for some of my weapons and 1 damage mod for the MD.

I go back and forth on 1-2 damage mods. I have MD up to Prof 2 at the moment and it is basically an extra damage mod on my MD. But I like the 2 complex damage mods for Heavy's it takes a least one less MD shot to get the kill.

I know many of the MD players going for Proto soon, but until we get some real reason to use them (tournaments) then I see no real point in them yet. Probably will use Series B for most of pub games and proto for matches or rare pub matches vs good players.

Still waiting on a officer MD ;)

Thanks, I wanted a time frame.

Whats suprising is you havent got your B Series yet? I got my B series in the first 15 days of gameplay. Were you focusing much on CPU/PG/shields/Armor and all that other BS?

I have my MD at level 3 (not proficiency just the base level) and I use the Cyclone MD on my Logi. It does plenty damage. I dont even need flux grenades any more. I have OHKed inf and taken down heavies in 2 shots. I just use a complex damage mod. The rest are shields and armor. Prefer the B or Vk1s. I like my survivability on it.

Ran into Kaughst the other day. Wasnt too impressed with his MD game play. Too much reliance on damage mods and logi to help him out. I would either take speed or tank over damage mods.

And that would be nice to have an officer MD.

'I don't get it, without support skills, and the ability to fit proto type shield mods and such the prototype suit is a waste. There is no way you can have your support skills up in time if you go straight for prototype suits.

You need fitting skills, armor and shield skills, and so on. Those will make an advance logi beat a prototype logi every time.

What this guy said.

I don't have a sexy black suit to walk around the warbarge in but my Type-I and A-Series are solid fits.

Actually....it really depends on what gear / equipment you are running / plan to run.

Once you start stacking ADV gear all over the place let me know how many of those things you can fit on your Type A.

First few builds I focused on the primary weapon, sheild skills, and other core skills. Personally, I found that every time I upgraded nanocircuitry to fit the next hive or injector with say an ADV AR and my other goodies I was having to spend SP on more core skills for fitting or light weapon upgrades....and then I'm looking at the next suit.

This time around I went with the suits and shield skills first while dabbling in LW SS and Weaponry along the way. Still using an STD AR simply because I can't decide on a primary weapon and CPP keeps teasing me with the Scrambler Rifle.


Both paths have valid arguments but your crazy if you think going for PROTO suits fairly early is a poor option. Especially if your corp is actively battling.

Youre late this has already been achieved...

I bid you good day Sir

I have all advanced gear on my A-Series except for the shield extenders, which are next on the list. I now have plenty of cpu and power grid to support those as well since my rank 1 fitting skills are all maxed. After that it'll be weaponry support skills and then onto prototype mass driver.

Only then will I start training for the prototype suit so I can start hanging prototype modules on it.

Like I said....both paths are effective. Are you arguing that only your way is the best way?

Which route do you think is more effective?

1. Unlock expensive suits first and equip them with less effective gear but with plenty of free CPU and power grid.

2. Maximize lower cost suits and gear and move to the more expensive suit when you can't squeeze any more benefit out of them.

I know the route I'm taking. The first thing to train to the next tier will also be my weapon.

That depends...If you're talking about Assault....

You can't get near the tank a PROTO suit can nor can you carry as many equipment items.


I'm not going to assume you haven't been here for a while but most of the older closed testers have seen the difference between the gun variants narrowed to where many of us think you are better off using STD or ADV weapons for the fitting benefits.

A PROTO suit player with complex extenders will not only out tank you by a mile but he will also likely have RE's to go with the hive or a hive and injector combo....or a repper...or an uplink. We do CB quit a bit so having more fitting options is important and that extra equipment slot is a distinct advantage when you have a whole squad of Assault guys with 2 equipment slots.

Personally, I've done it both ways but I'm glad I knocked PROTO out early this time. Especially considering I can't decide on a primary weapon specialization.

To each their own....just saying your dismissing the thoughts of very successful corps who have been at this a while.

Going proto suit 1st doesn't work with heavy

I've been here since closed beta.

The point brought up earlier was ignoring core skills to get into a prototype logistics suit as fast as possible. At this point unlocking a prototype suit means the vast majority of your SP is in the suit and not much else. I have 3.2 mil SP entirely in logistics and core skills and nothing else and my best suit is the A-Series. Others probably have a bit more SP than I do because I've been working overtime since before the reset. If I had aimed for the suit I would have no other skills trained today.

:''''( I feel your pain.

Luckily we can still strap on a Boundless and 2 complex damage mods easily enough

<3 my proto logi suit.

I tried to tell him he wasnt the first

You underestimate me.

P.S. Good job CCP for making a great suit, I would write some paragraphs describing the Logi's full potential but I fear others would eventually use it against me.

Going proto too early can be hurtful. I pwn protos all day with my advanced A. I think any logi, as long as he has 2.5 mil sp or better if speced right could afford to go proto, plus it would be the biggest upgrade they can get. I just decided a few days ago that saving for it would yield the biggest return over minute upgrades at this time. Now that players have started getting those higher tier weapons, all the shield and armor you can fit on a type a is not enough to stand up to but a few duvolle burst, or that dreaded instant pop shotgun rounds to the head.
