Is it worth a damn now or does it still reduce speed by ridiculous amounts? Thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis. That's why I'm asking about dropsuit speed. 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....

Cat Merc BetaMax. CRONOS. 691	Posted - 2013.04.29 09:35:00 - [6] - Quote It seems Jenza is busy packing, she has a plane to catch. I will just leave her 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/

Would the new plasma cannon, replace the forge gun for taking out vehicles (and obliterating people), or does the old forge gun still have some life left in it, now a better, lighter and newer vision has come out? The Plasma launcher has firing arc and needs to be reloaded after each shot. The forge gun can snipe vehicles and has multiple shots.

That being said, sweetheart, I'm gonna drop you a hard one right now. You see, every time I'm having a conversation with the dudes, the armour vs shield conversation rears it's ugly head. And I'm talking about the dropsuits specifically. I know I speak for a large portion of the community when I say that the shield seems a lot stronger than armour at this moment. So what's your take on this whole shields vs armour discussion after seeing the new build and has CCP taken any steps to alleviate the situation or do they think the scrambler rifle, with it's increased damage on shields, will be enough to balance the situation? One weapon isn't going to fix it. Especially when they introduced a counter weapon, the flaylock. If there is a weapon that does equal damage to both, and one is superior to the other, then you know there is a problem.

One weapon isn't going to fix it. Especially when they introduced a counter weapon, the flaylock. If there is a weapon that does equal damage to both, and one is superior to the other, then you know there is a problem. CCP has a "plan", but until that plan is executed armor will stay weak. I asked about that in the Q&A and that's basically the answer. "We have to either balance for the current situation or future situation that we have planned" The problem is that with CCP that future will not come for a minimum of 12 months. I appreciate the answer, bro, and let me be the first one to tell that you're exactly right man. One weapon won't fix the situation but let me tell you something right now, Cat. Some of the dudes will be happy to know that CCP has a plan even though it might take them a while to execute it properly. And speaking of CCP, I've got a little message for you guys: Hell offa fanfest! Nothing but positive vibes man! Keep up the good work. And one more thing, Cat. Keep on trucking in the CRONOS train man! Choo choo!!!

BANG! Especially with the flaylock, its a frigging missile pistol for god's sake. Everything in Dust goes pew pew

Also, is that the fastest suit in the game? Thank you for your time and effort. i had 3 complex damage mods on that one, the minnie has a higher base speed but less light slots Low slots you mean? And what did you have on the low slots?
