Return when you learn a bit about the lore of this game..... and stop being a backwards Minnie weakling. Oh I know the lore. I will hold all Amarr accountable for a near millennium of slavery and oppression. I hold NO QUARTER! There may be other Minmatar out there that aren't as hateful as I am, I accept that. I on the other hand will NOT forget the Day of Darkness. See you on the battlefield. Eriknaught out. END TRANSMISSION. I like you a lot. Purge the cluster of these vile slavers.
We will see. A Templar is worth ten normal mercenaries.

My alt is a big boned Minmi guy. Only XXXL Dropsuit that fits me is the Amarrian one. I can not run the battlefield naked, right? Would prefer to have our lovely HMG on a minmi suit, but these are not available.
On the other hand my primary is Gallente, but he loves simple stuff, so runs full Minmi all the time. |

Minmatar are not above stealing amarr tech and using it against the Amarrians.
Amarr on the other hand are more prone to NOT solly themselves with minmatar gear.

It wouldn't be appropriate to use those weapons as a LOYAL Amarrian, but that doesn't mean you can't do it. |

I am thinking of creating a Minmatar character with ties to the Amarr Empire and is able to use both Minmatar and Amarr dropsuits.
Minmatar hold their ships together with no-more-nails and moxy. They'd cream their knickers for a chance to run around in Amarr gear. Although in terms of gameplay, I'd sooner recommend Minny suits and Amarr weapons than the reverse. The exception of course being if you're a heavy. |

I have a Minmatar character in EVE that I recreated in DUST. I don't role play in the since of acting out a character. I'm from the old school D&D days of just having some kind of idea about the character and defining them accordingly.
I made her half Ammatar on her mother's side (Brutor father) and grew up in the Derelik region. So she doesn't care about the politics of either Amarr or Minmatar empires but she would just as soon have access to Amarr tech as she would Minmatar.
However, you are dealing with mercenaries. Just like capsuleers they would use whatever they would personally prefer and any tech is available anywhere no matter what the region or race/culture.
I gave her amarr armor only because I ended up making her a scrambler rifle character and you need the amarr assault role suit to reduce feedback on the rifle. |

So the Amarr are against explosions then... Well what weapons would be appropriate then? |

I think the point of the whole DUST immortality thing is that it has allowed a lot of soldiers to become independent, so they wear what suits works best for them. Those mercs who choose to remain loyal to a faction would theoretically only have access and training for their faction's suits. The point being that it is a choice to have those restrictions. |

I use Amarr Assault Suits with a Scrambler Rifle and a SMG. I tried going full amarr with a scrambler pistol as sidearm but not having a weapon with bonus to finish-off armor was being problematic. Also, the SMG works better at CQC than the SP, at least for me. And I only play at the Amarr side in FW, gotta show those slaves their place.
That being said, I have nothing against using Minmatar tech. My favourite faction in EVE is the Blood Raiders and they make use mainly of Amarr frames modified with Minmatar tech. I know that one day I'll have my Blood Raider Dropsuit, one very far day...
So, yeah, I picture my character as an Amarr Merceneray that has secret ties with the nuttiest pirate faction in the game, so I'm not ever going to touch Gallente and Caldari gear, but Amarr and Minmatar are free to go. The things you do for the lore... For the ones that care about it, it does give something more to the game. And its not like it doesn't suit my playstyle or anything, plus the amarr dropsuits are awesome. |

The Ammatar were thought to be a traitorous tribe amongst the Minmatar because they supposedly switched sides. What actually happened was they switched sides to protect the last remnants of the Nefantar (or was it Starkmanir) and have recently rejoined the Minmatar Republic.
RP'ing an Ammatar/Nefantar in an Amarr Suit, who has just rejoined the Republic makes perfect sense. |

Yeah that comment about "just" being religious nationalists lost you a whole lot of respect points Kirk like most people you haven't even bothered to learn anything about the Amarr and yet you still want to judge them as if you had....
The Amarr are a Theological nation ruled over by an imperialist mandate, with the express goal of retaking the star in the name of humanity and bringing peace to New Eden in the name of God.

They aren't against explosions in general. Just the ones produced by their former slaves. |

Flamethrowers and incendiary grenades sound like fun.
I tried using the laser rifle and scrambler rifle and they're just horrible for me. I can sort of work with the scrabler rifle but the charged/weak shooting system is strange. I feel like a short range sniper with bb gun back up if it doesn't work lol. |

Scrambler Pistols have a 450% modifier on headshots. I'm pretty sure the Rifle's modifier isn't that high, but I'm told it's still good. Try that sometime. |
