but it's always more exciting than in DUST, where PvP allows you to literally print money. PvP should be an isk sink, not an isk source.

Do you really think that we care if we lose 5 suits in a game? Do you really think that your efffort makes us sad in any way?

Know this:

Many, myself included, have hundreds of fittings in stock or 100+ M isk, or both. Many of us go game after game without losing a single suit and the ISK just keeps piling up. Pubstomping has come to a point now where I don't even bother to rack up as many kills as possible, these days its more fun to pick people up, shield them with your body and see the poor bluedots scramble back into the fight.

I don't have a single fitting that cost under 200K isk and I'll gladly get drunk and waste 50 of them like I did last weekend, my KDR went 0.09 in just a couple of hours but I did have lots of fun!

My point:

Stop sending me messages like: "I killed you twice, you lost money you scrub", or not least: "If I had a protosuit I would have destroyed you", like the extra shield regen and extra equipment slot for a medkit makes me a God. So chill....

This is not XBLA dammit..

rofl - so true. Wait till corps actually start paying me for being a ringer and my own corp for CB's. I throw out 10 million this weekened in kamikazes just for lolz. "That guy in proto would never drive his LAV into the red line... .. would.... he? OH CRAP JUMP OUT!" Too late suckers, mwahaha.

Lets see, the highest I saw a person do in proto gear is 900 HP.
That's without any damage mods, any kinetic catalyzers, ANYTHING other than health mods.

An Exile AR has 60 bullets in its clip, and does 750RPM (12.5 bullets per second).
60/12.5 = 4.8
You can unload an Exile clip in 4.8 seconds.
Now, the damage done by a single bullet is 31.4 without any skills what so ever.
34.1 * 12.5 = 392 DPS.

So it would take 2.2 seconds to take down the tankiest of assaults you can get.
I hardly see how it would take two clips in the back and a bunch of locus nades.

Mind you, most people have around 550 HP, because they equip damage mods and don't want to lose speed from armor plates.

So that means less than 1.5 seconds of shooting.
Now, include the damage skills, which add 25% bonus... (Which comes to a total of 490 DPS)
Yeah.

It is an advantage, but Proto suits aren't the source of the power those players have.
Its only a slight aid.

It's because you all stand out, "which do we shoot!?" "THE ONE WHO STANDS OUT!"...."Well I see alot of white..oh! BLACK GUY!" seriously this game creates racism

Why is no one asking OP how he managed to get 100+ Million ISK running all protogear?

Because a lot of people do. If a family didn't jack me out of 13 mil a week ago I'd be at 50 million right now and I never run stuff under STD for losing games - suits that cost me over 200,000 ISK a death lol

Must be my problem, even when my team is getting steamrolled and I'm getting death after death, I never switch to a free/cheap fit.

How much ISK does farming in the MCC net you? I'm not planning on doing it, just curious.

(...) like the extra shield regen and extra equipment slot for a medkit makes me a God. So chill....

What I don't understand is if the protosuit doesn't make you good then why run it? If people are so good that they don't need the protosuit why don't they just run militia gear? IT's like saying the difference between a lamborgini and a mustang are not the big a difference . the reason I won the race was my driving skills. No you have slightly better gear too.

I have a feeling in about 32 days there are going to be all black suits.

Right, it is the art of cooking that does.

quick edit - I'm nearly 1100 HP.

KD/R

Are you sure you're not a heavy in denial?

Wouldn't know. The only tme I afk farm is real life emergencies mid game, but from what I gather it's 200,000 ISK

Oh you were speaking of assault suits? Who cares about assault players - scrubs all of em. Runnin' around jumpin like frogs'. :P

Real men wear heavy suits.

Well this is more a flaw on CCPs part. You should never be able to run full proto 24/7 in public games. The point of the proto gear was for it to be used in corp battles and sparingly at that.
