Noir-Agent wrote:So I've been thinking of going Amarr assault on this toon with SR and I'm wondering if anyone can come up with any cons to shield tanking them. They all are 180/180 and early on have the high slots to do it so I was thinking of, when I get to proto, 2 complex extenders, and a recharger high, complex armor repper low, speed booster and the shield recharge rate module low. An SR and drop link with Ava's. Is this a fail fit or a good idea?
Fun fact, you don't need amar to run SR..... the heat build up is manageable on ANY suit really.... so if your looking to go shield tanking because you want speed then use another Suit. Also..... the only difference between amar logi and amar assault is the racial bonus and the fact that one gets extra equipment slots while the other doesn't..... (amar proto logi gets a sidearm slot) Otherwise they have the same module slot count.......
Really you can go either way with amar, but armor tanking is a good way to also stack damage mods on. The extra damage compensates for when your fighting amor tanked enemies (as the SR does 25% less damage to them).
So again..... Amar is slower then most other suits, if you want shield tanking to net you speed then you should do either minmatar or caldari. Unless you want to spam the charge Scrambler rifle like a tact rifle...... then amar might be the way for you. However if your only going to use the assault SR you should look into other suits. Hell, you could use the charge one on other suits you just have to be careful, that's all. |

I think more base health would make this suit MUCH better...... but by much I mean EVEN with other suits..... 225 HP on both armor and shield as a base stat would be great..... it would compensate for the lack of module slots, and would help the "balanced" role Amar was meant to be out a lot. |

Im sure he runs caldari or minmatar. Run what suits your play style. Here is my setup on just an advanced Amarr logi suit or proto assault. Yes im a bit slower but nobody seems to notice that the suits sprint speed is slow but stamina is high. I run my advance logi like an assault suit because I need uplinks and nanohives at the same time. Highs- 2 complex shield extenders and 1 enhanced Lows- 2 basic plates and complex self rep equip- nano and uplinks This is just advanced and cant wait till proto because ill have proficiency sidearm with this suit because its the only logi suit to fit a sidearm. My armor with the logi 1 HP per sec plus the Amarr 5 percent per level efficiency for your tool or yourself plus my complex repair gives me over 10 HP per sec armor repair with no delay like shields. Im basically half and half so I work well against anything and if I duck for cover in a sec im a fresh guy and ready to go. Very good suit for a tac or burst rifle because you can keep distance and back out for a sec and completely recover. Here is what I will have after respect. Proto Logi Amarr- Just skilled into this gives my suit 5HP per sec armor repair and 25 percent efficancy to repairers and tools. Highs- I have proficiency weapons so no damage mods needed. 3 complex extenders is what I will have. Lows- Enhanced plates, complex shield regulator or basic plates, complex armor repairer. Equip- Drop uplinks, nanohives, repair tool LW- Proficient ARs and Scrambler Rifles SW- Im going SMG proficiency here becaue I have range with the Tac but hip fire suck now so proto SMG
I should have 12.25 armor repair per second that's nuts for in and out or distance and just my advanced has close to 650 HPs so I should be about 700 HPs come this morning after respect with crazy armor repair rate, a badass sidearm, and shields that come back fast. Ill be a mix of armor and shield. For everybody that says they are slow run with a caldari suit and in a full run from MCC to objective they barely beat me. Why because the Amarr Logi actually has better stamina and recovery rate so he is a touch slower yet can run longer. Don't let anyone tell you what to use. This is what I like and im just helping clear up the Amarr to ppl that don't run it. I like it. You may not.
Not bad..... But I think im going to go proto gallente tomorrow..... it just seems like the way to go. ill have 21.5 HP regen per second with over 400 armor and over 500 EHP, PLUS 3 complex damage mods (or shield extenders) and ill have a suit that has either close to 750 EHP or a suit with over 500 HP and a gun that shoots almost 50 damage per shot. |
