New idea! Help me shoot holes in it :-) It occurred to me today that if the Devs can add a property bestowing more jumps to a module, they could also add a property bestowing less jumps to a module. Could this be a way to cure the stack-moar-armor meta?
Idea
Add to all armor plates a slight but noticeable decrease to jump height (inverse the myofib effect, though at a lesser degree).
Upsides
* Adds a new and significant downside to running [over-utilized] loadouts focused strictly on Armor and Damage Amps.
* No more heavily tanked Mario Bros.
* More loadout variety; less King HP.
* Better Armor v Shield balance.
* Better "HP tank symmetry" ... heavily shield tanked units require at least one Regulator in Lows; heavily armor tanked units would now require at least one myofib in Highs to retain otherwise lost jumps.
Downsides
* Heavies would be unduly impacted. Can't think of any other downsides beyond general discontent among King HP supporters. Help me find more downsides.
Offsets
* Make all heavy frame units immune to the penalty.
Revised Idea
Add to all armor plates a slight but noticeable decrease to jump height, inverting the myofib effect though at a lesser degree. Make all Heavy Frames immune to the penalty.

Packed RE are essentially useless in actual combat.
Also Amarr Mando with Scr and AScRGǪ Zero Overheat due to switching weapons at an unbelievable rate. Kinda sickening how fast I cut through multiple opponents. Drawbacks to ScR nullified.

Yes, I believe so. Thang.dk hasn't been updated for a month or so, but nothing substantive has changed which would've affected low-slot balance, armor-v-shield interplay, or the prevailing meta (armor + damage amps).

If I'm not mistaken the reduced speed from the plates has the side effect of reducing the jump height already, and part of the goal of Myofs was to counter act that. So you'd end up whacking on a double penalty to the same thing.
I'd also imagine that some would look at the two penalties on Armour and only one on Shields and request shields got a second.

Agreed on Packed REs. I tried over several matches and was unable to kill a single infantry unit. Unfortunately, also found them to be useless on HAVs.
Hadn't thought about skilling AM Commando. Sounds pretty nasty. Wonder why we don't see more of these?

1. Not following. Pretty sure jump height is unaffected by plates. I've seen some very high armor pools on mario bros.
2. Perhaps, but no one can deny that Shields are pretty much crap at the moment. Buffing shields is an alternative, though I strongly suspect it'd lead to less battlefield diversity rather than more.

I was running on my Amarr character. The spouse had every suit up to 3. (I added scout when it was introduced, she does not play anymore... to repetitive.)
Thought I'd try out fitting out the mandoGǪ holy crap. It's not even maxed out on DPS yet

Pretty sure we tested speed penalties and jump height and it was affected. That was a long time ago. Bojo proposed that it did, I confirmed through testing the rail beam beam jump. Appia confirmedGǪ Yeah that was a long time ago

Dreis ShadowWeaver wrote:Do you guys prefer to use Flux or Quantum Uplinks?
Ever since the Max Spawn nerf I've preferred Quantum Uplinks because the Max Spawns on Flux Uplinks are just pitiful. That, and a lot of the time it doesn't seem as though the Uplinks are reliably having an effect on spawn times.
I like to just drop Uplinks at the start of the match then switch to a different fit, so Quantum Uplinks suit me better since I don't have to worry about replacing them as much as I would have to with Flux Uplinks.
When respawning -- which I do often  -- I always spawn on the lowest available timer provided it isn't in a terrible place. For this reason, I run Viziam Flux ... to maximize WP. I don't find spawn count to be a problem.

Gotcha. Either way, I believe there's ample room to amplify the penalty. If a jump penalty already exists, that'd make implementation easier.

Implementation may be easier, or not.
If it is a value that is adjustable then yes.
If it is an effect of speed total it may not be easily dialled up or down.

If I'm not mistaken jump height is a factor of base movement speed, so a lower movement speed means a smaller jump.

For AV thread I am rechecking my data on thingsGǪ I would like others to confirm and critique my assessment. Also need input.
Packed Re are intended to be the go to AV choice for RE.
As such they fall short
Throw distance is supposed to be better than the basic RE. Minor increase may help.
Damage is inconstant. Placement is key, and hard to actually achieve. Possible solution is increase blast radius to the same as regular RE, but dial damage Vs infantry to 0. (If that is possible)
Hardenners may be nullifying damage, not a problem except that hardeners run in constant cycle. Also getting an RE on and not having a Hardener be activated as soon as you get one or two PRE on is virtually impossible.

You're not taking into account a vitally important factor, which is the way the game feels. This change doesn't really offer up a significant enough nerf to armor plates - I'm sure they'd be run even if they disallowed jumping altogether - but it does make them feel worse to use. So in effect, with this change you'd be spending players' enjoyment of the game for very little return. Not a good change, imo.
I think armor plates just need more number tweaking. Less HP, tweak the speed penalty, increase fitting costs, etc. They can be balanced within the confines of the system we have in place now, they just haven't gotten much dev attention as of late.

My two cents:
1. Blast radius of Packed REs is presently too small to deal damage reliably. Increase radius; split the difference between current blast radius and the radius regular RE. Requiring precision placement is impractical and counter-intuitive.
2. If REs stuck to a tank still fizzle when the tank enters the redline, fix it. It wasn't the case before, and it's pretty crap.
3. Adding a homing property (like AV grenades) would be better than increasing toss distance, in my opinion.

I'ma noob, I finally found out how to charge up the knife on planetside2. Been running around with an adrenaline pump (makes you run slightly faster and takes up the slot extra armor would usually go) and a Lumine Edge knife (knife u can charge up as u run with it). It 1hits peoples, except maxes because those things do not qualify as people. However I do have two c4s I can feed them when they are hungry. Now I just need to figure out a shotgun I like and I'm set. Plus I'm purple and polka dotted XD
