I am so tired of seeing armor tankers complain about shields. If you dont like armor then switch. They are not the same and will never be the same. What it seems to me is armor tankers want all the benefits of shields plus keep the benefits they have now like the ability to have others repair them, higher overall hp pools, and high slots free for damage mods. Now all of that is Overpowered. Quit complaining especially Cat merc.

I agree with the points you say. But when shield people can tank shield up to an including 500+ then have low slot mods help with shield as well. they can almost always have there shields up.

Armour is slow to regen. Unless you have like 4 reppers on. Or a Proto rep tool is repping you.

.......... No we don't we DO NOT HAVE ANY BENEFITS!!! What get slow as **** and have a bit more EHP than a shield guy has ?? oohh yeah sounds great.
**** man i don't want the high recharge rate which shield dudes have. I want a major EHP tank which no shield tanker could ever get and then i want to take ages to get up to 100% armor again and we got NOTHING LIKE THAT !!!
Right now we're beeing turned into stationary guns if we go all out armor plates.
Wtf dude ok imagine your shields won't come back unless you fitted a shield recharger, aka base shield recharge would be 0.

Nooooow suddenly your tank gets a lot weaker right ??!! Now also imagine equipping a extender and your overall speed gets lower... MUCH LOWER and there you got armor tanking. You stack 5 shield extenders ... we stack 2 because after that ***** getting ridiculous.
Ohh and of course we also gotta save some slots for armor reppers.

And oohh hell no i'll put Cat Merc up on a ******* pedist..... Scractching board and have him miav all over the ******* forums until someone from CCP comes out and says **** we screwed up guys sorry..

No benefits my foot. You still get shields.

Armor is about reps. You wanna wanna wanna all you want, but big buffer is the shield paradigm.

None? Really?

So you can't even think of one benefit?

Ok, lower my complex reppers CPU/Pg usage(so I can fit more then 2 on a proto suit without sacrificing everything else) or give my Gallente assault a rep bonuses like logis do.

Everyone has to sacrifice. It's why putting together a build is interesting. You can't just dump in everything you want and walk away.

Logis are supposed to be tougher to crack - they're about defense and Assaults are offense. I think Logis have too much offensive power, but that's an entirely different argument...

..................... WROOOOOOOOONG
Shield is about mediocre overall health but you get it back very fast.
Armor tanking is about having a major armor EHP pool you can take and tank from but that pool then takes forever to get back at it's maximum aka get in shoot and tank **** and then lay low for the next minute.

WTF if armor is about high reps PLEASE give all the armor suits an inherent armor repair rate then... hmm or fix armor plates OMG logic aahh !!!!

You're describing what you think it should be, and the reason you're upset is because CCP is continually "failing" to implement YOUR vision.

I'm describing the game that currently exists.

You can't always have ya shields up. All that stuff eats PG and CPU like crazy.
