Do you know if racial skills give their particular bonuses to the suits? There were quite a few on Singularity, for instance: Logistics gave all Logistics +1 HP armor repaired per level and Amarr Logistics gave +5% Armor Repairer Efficiency per level. |

Interesting. I foresee the Gallente Assault suit being the king of infantry, given it's associated bonus. |

Did you happen to see the Burst SMG which was in the Singularity market database? If so, did you use it? Further more, if you did use it, how terrible was it?
Edit: Actually, did SMGs get any semblance of a boost at all or are they still as inaccurate as Storm Troopers? |

Try hip-firing those damned things dude. It's a nightmare. That and they don't do much damage... If you want to get anywhere you're practically -required- to have Proficiency to at least 3 and use the Assault variant. |

Actually, really good question, did you notice any differences in Uprising on armor tanking? Is it worth a damn now or does it still reduce speed by ridiculous amounts? |

Amarr would most definitely (or at least should) be the slowest with Minmatar being the fastest. If it's not this way, then someone really jacked something up. |

Gallente are the get close and strike hard kind of people, which is why the Gallente AR will have pathetic range but high DPS. The base speed needs to be high to compensate for the armor, just like its SUPPOSED to be in EVE. In reality you have to equip a MWD or an Afterburner because of how slow armor makes you. But in Dust the kinetic catalyzers take up the same slots as armor.... so yeah....
Never understood that ****. That and the fact that hacking modules (ELECTRONICS NO LESS) are in the same freaggin slot when they should be in the high slot.
Just saying, Minmatar Logistics + Kinetic Catalyzers + Hacking Modules = WIN.
Hell, even the Profile Dampeners are in the Low Slots when they should be in the High Slots.... |

It's a nightmare. That and they don't do much damage... If you want to get anywhere you're practically -required- to have Proficiency to at least 3 and use the Assault variant. Using the M209 Assault with Level 4 Operations and wrecking people with it. Should probably practice a bit more honestly, I've got a tanked up Type II (eHP=600) with just a SMG and I'm able to go 14/0 easy enough and I'm a vehicle scrub.. just sayin'.
I used to role with the M209 as my primary weapon as a Scout - it's good, but it's not nearly as effective as it could be. High fire rate is great and all but if the rounds don't do **** (which they don't) then it's going to need a high ammo count, and the fact that it has about 3-4 mags means that you're going to be hitting up the nanohives A LOT.
Just easier to use the Assault Rifle. Using the SMG is a nightmare as the hip fire is terrible and aiming down the sights at the ranges needed to use it effectively is just a death sentence. I keep it solely for the sake of finishing off a target who somehow survived the sheer onslaught of the Assault Rifle (which I am so glad is getting the sharpshooter nerf). |

I will just leave here what she told me on the IRC:
"What changes did they make to make Armor tanking viable?"
Jenza: Well, there is a suit with 5 low slots.
No more 4 slots limit \o/
Stack them all with Complex Profile Dampeners. INVISERBIRITY!!! |
