It really depends who's using the Proto, if its an AUR suit you can bet the user has nowhere near enough skills to properly use it, if its an ISK suit you (if you have 500k sp) unload almost an entire clip into it if they are a bit over your medium range, if you meet em up close that total 300 hp won't stand up to a direct hit from a duvolle, lest alone double damage modded.
Tried it yesterday 500k sp, nothing more basic assault fit and while i could get 17/3 milage in that piece of junk dropsuit and i did manage to drop a few that i think are good players where if i was my protosuit and head on idd say our skills were equal and both could die 50% chance, in a militia fit it was a real workout and i had to get creative with grenades holding the pulled grenade up to the last milisecond and losing a hand to blow them up when they reared that corner.
At the end of the day i managed a low 1.18 KDR against single, double & tripple stacked teams on the opposing side, tanks, tanks, more tanks & getting spawn killed because you just cant react between the loading screen & still being alive when you are done loading and protos, duvolles creaming you before you can say Sh*t...Viziams giving you a face shave in a flat 0.3 seconds.
I really had to go back & use tactics, vs brute forcing myself trough the opposition.
All the solo newberries should be praised for hanging on against the brute force that is the Proto-suit.
While it was all hilarious and giggles for me, it has to be pretty frustrating for new people trying out Dust, one single time and never again. |

True you could, but you would need 88 of them to start making my shields go red just a little, eve & dust don't really compare directly.
Quote:BPOs are gamebreaking but most received them for dirt cheap and would cry if we removed them. Instead we have militia tanks for $.50 a pop (before fittings!) and say the game is on the right path...
Never used a BPO, and i am at 90m running proto gear, how is that crap even gamebreaking ? |
