How to fix Armor for dummies.
A guide made for CCP and it's absolutely FREE!*
Step one, change shield extenders buff from 22hp/33hp/66hp to 22hp/33hp/44hp.
Step two, reduce Armor speed penalty from 3%/5%/10%, to 3%/4%/5%
Step three, Change plates from 65hp/87hp/105hp to 65hp/90hp/130hp
Step four, increase armor rep speed from 2hp/3hp/5hp to 3hp/5hp/7.5hp
Step five, introduce the armor repairer efficiency enhancer, which increases armor rep amount by 25%/35%/45%.
Goes to high slot, has the same CPU/PG requirements as damage mods.
*Free with real money, not ISK. I demand 1 trillion ISK after you read this. |

Shields have inert 22hp/s, not including shield rechargers.
However, I see how that is problematic considering armor got much more HP, so I will remove the increased armor rep speed.
It will take 28 seconds to recharge the base 210 HP. |

Also, Fluxes and all these other shield eating weapons will make Armor tanking pretty sweet. I had this game yesterday where I was in a type 2 heavy, and I just lol'ed as the Flux hit me.
Shields have inert 25 recharge speed and can increase it even more.
Just reducing the speed penalty won't solve the problem that Shields can get near the same HP as armor (its like a bullet or two difference) while staying quick and recharging quickly.
Also armor is VERY vulnerable to any explosive, from grenades to MD to the flaylock pistol. |

Everything explosive is a counter to armor. |

Everything explosive is a counter to armor. True. My point is before they're weren't a huge number of weapons that were designed to strip shields. Now we're getting scrambler rifle, flux mines etc. not to mention we're getting drop suits designed for armour tanking, just saying armour tanking is getting better. So let's wait and try it in uprising first.
Scrambler rifle has only 10% extra shield damage from standard AR, and only -10% to armor.
The Flux grenade is really a hard counter, and armor having a hard counter would be too much because there is no third layer to the suit, you just die. |

Then tell me sir, how will you fix the clear advantage shields have in every way?
And don't say buffer, its the difference of one to two bullets. |

Armor has no benefits what so ever.
Shields are better in every single way.
That's not perfect imbalance, that's just imbalance.
And its a Extra Creditz video, just search for the name. |

Armor mods allow for high mods. More damage, shields or utility. Flux kills shields easily, it is balanced but probably not perfectly.
You can't fit damage mods unless you downgrade your AR.
Armor takes the same slots as PG/CPU upgrades, and you never have enough. |
