Again, one hundred times ovr - Armor should be first and foremost a resistance type of tanking - not a raw HP type of tanking.
If you're just going to copy paste what makes shield tanking shield tanking over to armor, why even bother? It's unimaginative.
Armor tanking should be constant low reps, damage resistance, moderate HP.
Shield tanking is delayed high reps, high HP, no resistance.
It makes them different and different players will find different situations in which they are useful. |

GAH, no offense to your hard work, but I don't even want to see a spread sheet... It's all SSDD, only it's called armor and not called shield - and it's half arsed.
Make armor tanking unique and dump this stupid speed drop. |

I think a good shield extender penalty would be that they make you look fat in those pants.
The "I totally couldn't go out looking like that, I'll just throw on a pair of sweats" penalty. |

My Idea is as follows - First of all, no movement penalties on any armor anything, Dig? Here's some numbers, they're probably a little on th high side so just use it as reference.
Next, armor plating - High slot.
Basic - 5% damage reduction to armor
Advanced - 10% damage reduction to armor.
Prototype - 15% damage reduction to armor.
Stacking penalties apply
Armor Re-enforcement - Low slot
20hp - 40hp - 60hp
Armor repair - lowslot
2hp/sec - 4hp/sec - 6hp/sec - or whatever it is now... I swear I don;t really care.
Now armor tanking is unique and not copy and paste half assed shield tanking that has to be carried. Also putting the plating resistance module in the Highslot keeps shield tankers from fully dual tanking without sacrificing a slot that could be used for an extender and those suits built for armor tanking with limited high slots from stacking too many.
Kneel, before McDustingham.... Kneel |
