But at 3x the cost it Doesn't feel any better than the Advanced aside from the fact that I can put a boundless HMG on it. 
Any Heavy's out there wanna share some good fits, or is it rule of thumb to just stack armor plates?
Edit: Basic Frame Proto heavy by the way, Sentinel Heavy looked very unappealing. |

Hope it doesn't give you buyer's remorse, but you can fit a Boundless, Flux, SMG, 2x Complex Damage Mods, Complex Repper and Adv. Plates on an Advanced Fat Suit with the right fitting skills... The Proto just isn't that shiny.  You may as well abuse the broken armor system, though. Combine Complex Armor Plates with one Ferroscale Plate in your lows. Then take a look at your movement speed and cackle maniacally. (ED: Works best with Sentinel, I'll admit.) I refuse to do it, but my brethren fatties may as well get every bonus they can.
Wow, so the Basic Proto is pretty much a waste of SP. 1 extra low slot feels like I've been ripped off.
As for the ferroscale plates I'm Definitely going to try this. Thanks for the info! |

-Gastuns/Boundless HMG
-Specialist Flaylock (Core is on the way)
-Enhanced Precision Scanner on the high (this gives me ~47 dB scan precision, enough for revealing medium dropsuits on radar)
-1 Enhanced Armor Plate (ferroscale PG cost is too high)
-3 Complex Ferroscale Plates
-Flux Grenades
Before 1.2 I had 4 complex armor plates which gave me 1000 armor HP, but I was super slow and easily killed. After equipping ferroscales I realized how important speed is for surviving in this game. Even aiming got better because turn rate is affect by speed.
This gives me 800 armor HP without sacrificing speed. I don't equip reps because they're so slow repairing armor, and I always try stay with the logibros. If not I just go to the nearest supply depot and change fit to regenerate armor to full. The shield energizer seems useful for this fit as well.
But you're basic heavy. Maybe you could stack 3 kinetic catalyzers for fast heavy. For the 2 highs idk, I wouldn't equip extenders because you'll only get 130 more shield HP, which is not that noticeable when you got 500 shield HP already (if you have the core skill at max). For damage mods I always try to have 3 so they don't apply for heavy, unless you're using a Forge Gun.
I would equip 2 energizers or rechargers so that HP gets regen as fast as possible. Another fit would be 3 regulators and 2 extenders/rechargers/energizers. Another one is basic shield/armor tanking, 2 extenders and 3 ferroscale plates. It's really up to you which one you think is better.

So are Damage mods not as effective for heavy's? Tank > Damage? |
