Washlee UnReaL. 133	Posted - 2013.03.12 23:18:00 - [1] - Quote Now we all die from time to time. When people level up they get good gear. When you get good gear that cost alot of money. When it cost alot of money you don't like dying When you die you rage When you rage your wife/mom bitches at you. Don't get bitched at But its come to my attention Im getting to that state where my suits are costing alot of money. So I do through alittle fit when I die. I know people with full proto gear and run this stuff in pub matches to try a stomp the little scrubys , and if they die maybe 2 - 3 times they already made negative profit. Because in Ambush you can make about 200K - 300K of ISk. Now if your dying 2-3 times and this is not alot of deaths your making negative profit. So you'll be begging for ISK towards the end. That why Im kinda scared to go into full proto gear because of money income. Even while playing Skrim you can make alot more money but still your only making if you do very very well 350 - 400K of ISK. Now alot people say save the Proto for CORP Battles. Im not super butt hurt at the moment. But its concerning me that if I run proto and my buddy is running STD or MLT he can possibly make close to what Im making every game ? Doesn't make much financial sense. There has to be some type of denomination change between money made depending on gear used. Anyone else agree of Disagree

Laheon Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 155	Posted - 2013.03.12 23:23:00 - [4] - Quote Even back in August there were these sort of problems. My advice is, get good at playing with lower tech, cheaper suits. I comfortably played with 30-40k suits, had a positive KDR, helped my team out all the time, and always had profit. I'd only suggest using proto gear in corp matches if you're getting paid well.

Don't use what you can't afford to lose, so just don't use it if you think you'll die too many times.

At the moment I can run a type A but have decided against doing it anymore. I have more durability in a type 2 with a complex shield and a damage mod than 2 complex and a damage mod on a type A. It just makes more sense not to run a suit that costs more but makes you more vulnerable. That being said, don't run what you can't afford to lose....

Gersh Raven beta Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 34	Posted - 2013.03.13 00:20:00 - [21] - Quote Just like Eve, you have to balance out your income and PvP costs. In eve you have multiple income options, in Dust we have just one. That will change in the future, but for now to you have to fight for your right to paaarrrrrrrtttyy. I run Logi and I'm not a 1337 player so I die about 4-6 times each match, and win on average about 180k isk. I use cheap or free gear if I'm lone wolfing it, advanced gear if I'm running with a good corp squad, and bring out the good stuff for corp matches or if I'm feeling brave. Eventually we'll be able to make money in different ways, be it industry or PvE. I hope one day I can send send ISK from Dve to Dust, then it will proto gear all the way.

I have enough money to rock proto.....will I where it when there is 3 enemy tanks on the board in an ambust map and Im playing with blueberries......Im gonna say probably not.

If you find that your team is getting steamrolled and you can't do anything about it- switch to a cheap sneaky scout and pad your WP. Why did nobody mention this earlier? Just because you have access to the best gear, doesn't mean it's the best option to use every time. When a guy who grew up in the wrong side of town grows up and makes a name for himself, he doesn't drive his Ferrari back to his old neighbourhood and leave it parked out in the street. That would be stupid. So is bringing your A-game gear into a pub match when there's a risk of getting it totalled. Also, when you bring your Protogear, it gives you an edge. Not always a huge advantage, just a little tilt of the balance in your favour. Often, that will be enough to edge out an opponent who might have beaten you in a "fair" fight. That victory means you earn more WP than you otherwise would have, and lose less suits (albeit more expensive ones). Your WP earnings in battle are a major factor towards your ISK earnings for the match, so if you're winning more encounters, and getting more WP from doing it, then you'll do better than the guy running cheaper gear, and as such, you'll earn more.

I'd only suggest using proto gear in corp matches if you're getting paid well. I run one or two A series Logi fits (my highest suit unlocked so far) at around 70-80k a piece then shift back to a Sver suit running about 22k if we're getting stomped. Being a Logi is expensive, I can't even imagine what a Vk0 or Vk1 are going to cost me fully outfitted. It's very possible to do well, be a team player, and easily be cash positive in this game.
Sontie VENGEANCE FOR HIRE 147	Posted - 2013.03.13 06:05:00 - [32] - Quote My go to suit costs me 148k right now. Because of this cost, I try to play very defensively. I constantly check my radar for possible enemy troops movements and where the lines of battle are being drawn. I try to engage fights that I will win only, and remember my role on the battlefield. If my shields start dropping steadily, or if they are getting kinda low, I tactically retreat. (don't always have this option with viziams and GEKS). I can normally avoid death in a standard death match, even against good players. Against great players, I can usually keep my deaths in the 3-5 range. Ambush of course. Manus Peak, I rolls whatever random crap I feel like losing to random bullcrap. Those 15 aurum suits are fun (fused locus grenades). And against a stacked team of proto, I still pull my good suits, if only for one reason; maybe, just maybe, I can force those frackers to go isk negative too. Isk negative; the only real loss.

CCP Eterne C C P C C P Alliance 1005	Posted - 2013.03.13 10:08:00 - [35] - Quote Keep in mind that eventually matches will not be the sole way to earn ISK. So running in full proto gear more frequently will be possible, though it might not ever become entirely profitable match-to-match. However, we're pretty confident we'll make it so that you want to win battles so that your use of higher end gear will make sense in the long run.

King Kobrah SyNergy Gaming 48	Posted - 2013.03.13 10:20:00 - [36] - Quote I run a 0 aur proto suit every match, pub or corp. right now it costs roughly 230k per suit, and despite the fact i literally never use any other suits, i still manage to make marginal profit every set of 10 suits I purchase. Anywhere from 0-500k isk depending on how many games I can go without dying. Not a ton of profit, but I'm constantly in proto gear and I'm not losing isk. running with a squad makes this much more efficient, it's harder to run solo with proto gear, but i still manage to make it work.

KEROSIINI-TERO Seraphim Initiative. CRONOS. 254	Posted - 2013.03.13 10:47:00 - [40] - Quote "If you cannot afford to lose it, don't field it" I like the current balance as it doesn't make sense for everybody to run proto suits all the time. Promotes choice and variation which are both good. As items get slightly better as their meta level rises, it's imperative that their price rises logarithmically. If +3% mod would cost only 3% more, who would use that? Example from current beta market: Vehicle damage mods, almost the same price so everybody will use the Type-II one. Even more borked example, the jovian thruster. However, as I said this current balance is good I'm afraid it won't stay that for too long.

Makes me feel =) P.S. The best way to establish pricing for proto gear is to wire up beta testers to stress monitors. Adjust pricing upwards until using proto results in elevated heart rate and a cold sweat for 99.95% of the playerbase.

Even my heavy was one shoot with your thale sniper repeatedly. I think you ended with around 68 kills and me hiding in a cheap tank Normally I try to teamkill with grenades if I see one on my team afk farming, I need to upgrade my grenades for the heavy afk farmers which are becoming more common.
Your Absolut End SVER True Blood Unclaimed. 28	Posted - 2013.03.13 14:26:00 - [48] - Quote I think one key might be to max out you suits over the top before skilling in dropsuits. Right now I am running the Assault A-Series which fully equipped costs like 61.000 ISK Mostly I can handle the money well with this fit. I concentrate right now on maximizing everything I can with this Suit, so +25% Shield skill +25 Armour Skill maximizing CPU, PG lower costs of armour plates, shieldextenders, main and side-weapons all stuff like that. When I am done with this I will go for the B-Series and skill for better weapons. One of the reasons for doing this is to get the maximum out of every suit, so when I'll reach the proto suit, I'll be a protobear and no scrub in a black suit. I tried this already with aurum, it was very expensive just to learn something about Dust btw ;) Another reason is the racial variants of the dropsuits. Nobody knows when they hit the market, so Maybe I'm still stuck on my B-Series when they hit the market and I don't have to rage because I spent 1,2 Mil SP just to see another variation of DS which fits my way of playing better. I already spent like 3,5 Mil SP on my main, with even if its hard to admit, alot of wasted SP because I was kitten too much around. But yeah I spent 3,5 Mil SP and still running the A-Series. I just calculated my next skills and will need another 1,4 Mill to finally maxed out my A-Series and then be ready to switch to the B-Series.
Travi Zyg G I A N T 31	Posted - 2013.03.13 14:28:00 - [49] - Quote Im perfectly comfortable running my assault B-series suit toe to toe with proto. I see no need to rush to my proto gear at this point, unless your never dying, its not cost efficient at all in pubs. You can get SOOOO much out of a B-series with your core skills capped and if you have some good gun game you can absolutely step to protobears. Talking about B assault btw, i know people prefer their logi A or heavy A and such but as assault at least, you can run that suit for a LONG LONG time against proto and still have your survivability and make more ISK than the protobears.

It's no different than a newer player losing 10 wellfit type 1 assault's, the risk is the same. I call bs... No one is stupid enough to use proto heavy Sorry Marauder I killed one guy 2 times yesterday in skirmish who was running proto heavy, with his proto scout buddy beside him. There are those guys.

Most of the time i run D series assault forge gun with type II heavy. Sometimes ill run darth mode if i feel like pub stomping.

I really wish we could see how mush ISK you lost and how much ISK you cost the other team. I run militia gear about 85 percent of the time. I hunt Proto/Adv gear players, because if I kill you three times or more your ISK efficiency just collapsed. So keep wearing that great gear, their are predators like me just waiting to see that on the kill feed.
