N1ck Comeau REGULATORS OF VALOR Orion Empire 47	Posted - 2013.03.06 18:11:00 - [1] - Quote Now here is some very important info on Dust 514 about skill training This advice will help new players and veterans of the game, I play daily and i learned a thing or two about this game http://www.psu.com/a018532/DUST-514-Basic-Skill-Training- Here is a small amount of info the site gives you Follow the link above to read the rest! Here are some of the basic skills you should get no matter what your play style will be. They offer you great passive stat boosts that will aid you every second in battle. Skills that offer a 25% buff go up in increments of 5% and those with 15% in increments of 3%. The numbers below reflect the skills trained to level V, however, training most to level IV is sufficient for now. Dropsuit Command V: unlock various tier dropsuits, -25% scan profile Combat Engineering V: unlocks Shield Boost Systems, +25% powergrid Shield Boost Systems V: unlocks Shield Control, +15% dropsuit/vehicle shield recharge rate Shield Control V: +25% dropsuit/vehicle shield capacity Field Mechanics V: +25% dropsuit/vehicle armor capacity Endurance V: +25% stamina Vigor V: +25% stamina, +25% staminastamina recovery rate Circuitry V: unlock sensor upgrades, +25% CPU Sensor Upgrades II: unlock profile dampening Profile Analysis V: -25% scan profile
N1ck Comeau REGULATORS OF VALOR Orion Empire 47	Posted - 2013.03.06 18:25:00 - [2] - Quote Also there is a section on Weapons and what to upgrade on them Weapon Capacity V: +25 ammunition Weapon Capacity Proficiency V: +15% ammunition Weapon Rapid Reload V: +15% reload speed Weapon Rapid Reload Proficiency V: +10% reload speed Weapon Sharpshooter V: +25% effective range Weapon Sharpshooter Proficiency V: +15% effective range Weapon Upgrade V: -25% CPU usage Weapon Upgrade Proficiency V: -15% CPU usage
N1ck Comeau REGULATORS OF VALOR Orion Empire 47	Posted - 2013.03.06 18:27:00 - [3] - Quote And a hugely important section on Shields Vs Armour Showing the upsides and downsides. Shield + Regenerates without needing modules (passive healing) + It has a high recharge rate (passive) + No penalty in movement speed + Offers independent survivability in the field (you donGÇÖt need anyone to repair you) - Scan signature increases with shield usage - Higher CPU and PG consumption than armor - Long recharge delay - Lower overall increase (lower hp per module) - You need more SP to get the +25% bonus shield capacity than you do for armor Armor + It has module enabled active repairing of upto 5HP per second + Regen happens continually even in combat, unlike shields + Higher overall increase (more HP offered per module) + Lower overall CPU and PG consumption + Less SP is needed to get the +25% armor capacity - Movement is hampered by the heavy armor plates - Lower recharge rate (2-5hp/second v 20+ hp/second) - Has to be repaired via repair tool or special hives Please read the full article to get even more details.

Delanus Turgias Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 69	Posted - 2013.03.06 23:17:00 - [7] - Quote Where are you getting that shields increase scan profile? I've not heard that anywhere else, so I have to doubt it's veracity.

I dont see your logic here... Why should shields increaase your scan profile? I've not heard this before either. What's your source?

What's your source? increased energy consumption means a hotter suit, though I'm not sure what our radar is based on the assumption that shield presence would effect our ability to hide from a scan looking for electromagnetic waves negatively is sound and, obviously, the same goes for heat signature detection.

Neither "it makes sense" or "the suit is hotter" are sources for the assertion that the devs have acknowledged these ideas and adjusted the scan profile of shielded suits. "What's your source?" actually means "Please link to an evidence." Nice thread, though.

I don't believe that it has been tested or confirmed by a dev. (There is a lot about Scanning and Scan Profiles that we don't yet know.)

I know you didn't write the article, but it seems kind of presumptuous and premature to put an assumption into a rookie guide which has no basis in fact. I guess we could hope to get lucky and have a dev come along and confirm/deny this. It would completely change the way i fit my scout suits
N1ck Comeau REGULATORS OF VALOR Orion Empire 50	Posted - 2013.03.07 01:14:00 - [14] - Quote Well the rest of the info is true and i have never heard about shields doing this either so we will have to wait and hope it gets confirmed or denied
