Exactly. They're collectors items, not meant to actually be used. |

could not die? always an idea, my first game with the suit, the reds called in two tanks in ambush, I ran over and hacked one tank, jumped in and destoyed their other tank and then the blues went on to victory, I kept that tank I stole to the end of the game. Those black eagle suits bring to much luck to be destroyed! |

There are Zero low slots. The BE Assault Rifle is in the Side Arms slot and can only be replaced with Small Arms. There is one high slot. The equipment is all standard except for being the most screwed Scout Suit I have seen in DUST.
Now it might be better than the specifications because CCP still doesn't show us everything related to anything. The ranges or multipliers for head shots could be better. The suit Might Even have two Kin Modules built in but nothing is mentioned in the specs. The Sprint speed is 8.2 so it is not as fast as my normal Speed Scout nor is the Stamina anything but normal.
Since it cannot be restocked and is Not a Blue Print Fit this is just a pretty suit for swaggering around in the War Barge. Which screws up the default use of the Favorite setting to choose an Actual Favorite Suit. Maybe they need to add a Pretty setting for the prancers we are all supposed to be.
This turned out to be a waste of time. |

these things should come in quantities of 100, that's kind of the standard for any fitting.
i might not use it alot but at 100 I'd still take it for a few spins around the block. |

With that insane sprint speed you shouldn't die that easily....
Btw can you replace the weapons on it? I'd put a laser as primary and keep the AR as secondary |

Maybe the market place will open up in the next update in a couple of weeks so we can trade these out. My plan is to sell most of my BPO's once the market opens up. Thought my exiles were going to be worth something, but not so much anymore. |

Yes, only enough cpu pg for a low tier , and that would be a nasty range holding fit. I panicked when I replaced the AR, then came to my senses when all I had to do was make a new fit to get it back, |

I think people need to get their head arou d the fact that things in DUST aren't meant to last forever or have 100 copies.
The entire point of risk vs reward is that what you lose could be worth more than what you gain, and you have to make a call on what to do. |

I've used 2 of mine so far, one of which I got spawned into a bad situation. The other life was quite lengthy though, I did like the general idea of a scout suit holding two primary weapons. Hopefully this is CCP's way of testing such a suit (making the BE AR a "sidearm" so they could use the same template for the scout suit instead of making a new one). A Type III/C-Series/Vk. 2 scout suit with two light weapons but less low slots and equipment slots would work without messing up any balance IMO.

Yellow Slot Rule If you put a weapon in the Sidearm Slot and replace the AR, you can get the AR back by selecting the weapon filling the slot and hitting "remove".

^^ hitting "remove".Okay didnt think that one out since i panicked lol" but the black eagle AR is indeed a sidearm and im pretty sure no one would want to "remove" that. Yellow slot rule states that the slot must be occupied, and the best one could do without replacing the AR is to replace the hi and grenade slot with their basic, maybe enhanced, counterparts, and use a specialist variant weapon. |

Yellow Slot rule is exactly why removing the item you replaced the AR with gets it back for you. You can remove a weapon you fitted into the slot, but you can't remove the weapon that was "under" it. |

Yellow slot rule, but i got enough tank to replace that sober with an complex drunk.
As for you sir, yellow slot rule states that you must drink.

Next time Dork Promotions Inc decide to do something like this I will ignore it unless they Publish The Kitten Excrement Specifications First.
Hah! Fat chance that will happen. They have yet to publish the complete specs on Anything. That would mean they would have to update them when they constantly tweak leading up to their next QQ inspired Nerf.

If you want to get a feel for it why don't you just use the standard equivalent? The cosmetics don't change how the suit feels ffs. |
