DUST Search - DEATH COMES TO US ALL

I've been playing Dust 514 for just over 4 or 5 months or so now (+- 4,5mil SP). I've been working towards acquiring a Logistics ck.0 for what felt like 2 years. Up until yesterday I've been using a Caldari medium basic suit to successfully fight in instant battles. Eventually, yesterday I was able to use a logistics ck.0 for the first time. Everyone new to Dust can imagine how excited I was. I equipped my dropsuit, and immediately set out to find the some pub matches to stomp in as I heard that this suit was beast!

I'm still suffering from shock of what happened to me. I've lost so much isk today I don't know what to do. I know DEATH IS SUPPOSED TO COME TO US ALL, but I'm still not sure how it all went down. I made my fit and was exiting the redline like all of the other players seem to do. Sometimes I would spawn on the alien looking things but this suit just doesn't stay alive. The total value of my loss today was approximately 15 million isk. What a complete idiot I am.

I had two precision mods equipped, but was still unable to see anyone before they killed me. Why would this be?

Can someone please tell me if instant battles are supposed to be done in a group, or can you actually do them solo?

I now have skilled into a useless suit and have no leftover sp, and have to literally start over again. I am so unmotivated.....

I guess I should stop complaining, and get back to fighting red-dots again. I suppose I should buy some more basic suits, and slowly work my way up to 20 million ISK again.

ANYONE OUT THERE WANT TO DONATE TO ME???

I am not a vet or a pro but I do run this suit and do OK. First of all, what are the Precision Enhancers for? You need to be Shield Tanking as a Caldari. Also, why are you running ADV shield extenders on a protosuit? You should really, really, really work on your Core Upgrades first (Shields/CPU/PG). And get those dinky armor plates off of that suit. You are not a Gallente. And the reactive plates are crap. You need Shield Regulator or Armor Repair much more than Range Amplifier. I am sorry but I can't believe someone would go Complex Range Amplifier before first getting there Shields up to snuff. Good grenades, those can stay. The equipment is more of a personal choice but I would seriously think about getting at least ADV nanohives and drop uplinks. Well, this is honest advice and not a troll so do with it what you will. EDIT: Also, for most cases a GEK will do just fine and that will save you some CPU-PG. GEt you AR proficiency up too.

In the lows you can keep the armor plates if you don't mind moving slower, but take the range amp off and use a shield regulator since the suit gets a bonus. Take an uplink off and put a nanohive on just in case you run out of ammo. Edit: You might want to get your shield extenders up to complex. Until then I advise you to buy some aurum ones or just don't use that suit until you do.

semperfi1999 Internal Error. Negative-Feedback 699	Posted - 2013.07.30 20:12:00 - [20] - Quote listen to the ppl above....also dont use 2 of the same kind of uplinks....you get no benefit from it. With the stable you can only have 1 active uplink and by having 2 uplink slots that means you have 4 uplinks with the ability to only have out on the field...its a waste. If you want to uplink alot more then use 2 different types of uplinks so you can have 2 uplinks on the ground at the same time. Honestly armor tanking in that suit is fine if you arent very good at straffing but you have to get rid of your precision enhancers and use shields only. 4 complex shields and 1 recharger is pretty decent. Also you can take advantage of your suits racial bonus by placing shield regulators on instead of only armor.
