Rexo Buff ?!? Is it true?

[Mognoc]

If it were up to me, i wouldn't buff the armor at all, I'd just make it so that the armor has to be completely depleted for your health to take hits. I'm so sick of dying with 50 or so armor left over.

Currently each set of armor has its pros and cons that are built in that make a �give and take� trade off. You get more armor and more inventory at the cost of foot speed.

Standard:
Fast mobility, but at the cost of light armor (50) and small inventory space

Agile:
Medium mobility, but you get more armor (+50; 100) and medium inventory space

Rexo:
Slow Mobility, but you get the most armor (+100; 150) and large inventory space; However, you now suddenly lose the ability to drive/pilot most vehicles and have to spend 3 full cert points for this privilege.

So "Riddle me this batman": Why are 2 armors free, while the one with the worst cons (slowest foot speed and can�t drive) costs 3 cert points? I say just get rid of the asinine and crippling drawbacks. I think the only "buff" the REXO needs is to increase its movement rate to be the same as agile armor and allow it to drive any vehicle. Then it will be worth the 3 cert points as you would GET something for your cert expenditure.

IMHO: I�d like to see the foot speed of all 3 to be the exact same. Agile should cost you 1 cert point and then Rexo 2 cert points with Agile being a prerequisite. So for your hard earned cert points you could purchase a benefit. In any FPS game foot speed is KEY to success. Slower armor will get you shot many more times then the meager armor increase will possibly compensate for.

I don't think Rexo should move as fast as Agile. No way.

Make its movement 4 or 4.5 m/sec(current is 3.5), along with the damage absorption.
For reference, Agile is 5.5 m/sec, and Standard is 6.5m/sec.

Keep the armor restriction on vehicles; I don't wanna shoot down some reaver pilot only to have him bail on my ass and pull out a Striker with 15 rounds to spare.

Rexo should be able to drive any land vehicle period

Ehhh that space in the driver seat of a TR prowler is quite cramped.

You guys are using the rexo for outdoor activities. That's a bad thing, it's ment for inside, where the extra armor comes in handy.

As a cloaker that uses a NC scatter pistol, know what the differance between Agile and Rexo is to me? The Rexo is slower and easier to catch up with. That's it.

Point blank NC scatter pistol:
Agile: 3 hits = dead
Rexo: 3 hits = dead

conclusion: The extra 50 armor is a JOKE. People use Rexo for the added inventory space and the 2 rifle slots. <---stress on the PERIOD.

Would be nice to see armor with higher integrity to certain weapons. Making rexo more resistant to plasma grenades for example.

I happen to love Rexo. I use Rexo with surge when I fight and I spend more time owning then I do getting owned. Most members of our outfit use rexo very succesfully. The additional armor that causes the mobility decrease isn't as bad as most of you think. I have gone against Markov's best in our "duels." In these duels the majority of the INVITED PLAYERS ONLY use agile + surge + HA. One on One I have only lost once! When you mix Rexo with surge, personal shield and of course second wind you are damn near unstoppable.

Outdoors - Surge to the target turn on personal shield and tear that @$$ up.

Indoor - Surge in Rexo armor tear that @$$ up and let second wind do its thing. Repair health, Armor and repeat.

TR Heavy Assauly users would be much better off if they all used Rexo and learned to strafe, surge, strafe, surge!

[Rayder]

Except Rexo uses up more stamina with surge for the same speed.

[Christian]

So? learn to hit you surge key on and off every 3 seconds or so and you conserve stamina while still utilizing a faster foot speed. This also confuses your opponent.

[Rayder]

Just stating a point.
