ill have to respectfully disagree with your thread my good sir.
by your account, you imply 2 teams of equal skill, 1 team in basic gear and the other in full proto is on even keel with the team in proto having no advantage what so ever...this is... and I mean this respectfully... utterly ridiculous.

I kill my fair share of protos in my dren gear, using explosives and running them over... but this doesn't mean we are on even keel... it means the guys in proto made mistakes, i.e. not checking for remotes running out in the open with no cover or simply lacking a good gun game... or even having the wrong mods in their suit.

most pub matches where one team is being proto stomped usually has more than just a gear disadvantage, they don't have organized squads or communication and usually lack the in game experience the proto stompers possess, but even if this was not the case and both teams were even in all these things the protos for their gear alone have the advantage... they are also usually more broke then the guy running bp or basic/militia gear, because we can die 20 times and still make isk where as the protos die a few times and all the have to show for it is an empty win to go along with their empty wallet. Big smile

If your enemy doesn't happen to be a Caldari Logi Proto with unlimited shields (these are the problemativ guys) you can easily kill them with the Militia Assault Rifle. Of course you shouldn't run directly at him with guns blazing. infinate shields are defeated by flux :P caldari logis fear my fluxes, mass driver and remote explosives :P
