I have some really nice 80% Kinetic Compy armor. but the secondary rape is increadible.

What do you guys wear?

I wear 80% kenetic composite.

what do you mean the secondary rape is incredible? youre a doc, your secondaries should be buffed incredible. after buffing the secondary encumbrance is irrelevant, the only thing you need to worry about is mind encumbrance and that can be eliminated with stat migration and not wearing a helmet.

I personally wear ubese, provides good enough protection for the few times i actually get hit (we're carbineer's we arent actually meant to get agro unless KD'ing) It also doesnt have overly high HAM costs, after buffing my H and A never move no matter how much spam specials, M either if i get that buffed.

Composite for carbineer is just overkill... usually yourself.

I wear compo stuff.. about 80 Nrg and like 72-76 kin . .. was a bit pricey and yes the secondary mind stats get hosed.

I have to use ''breath of heaven' just to put on my armor as 400 focus justisn't enough

Luckilly my will power is still postive 300after armor, that combined with equilibrim, muon + fish drinks I do okay in battle. Still looking for a better solution though.

Just as an aside, i highly recommend those fishtak drinks.. wonderful stuff.

well ham costs are not that big a deal if your str and quickness are 2k + and you are regenning like a mad man. only trouble is mind.. I found that ubesse was not quite good enough as I solo alot. I mastered pistoleer before carbine.. i think carbie is terrible in comparison. just my opinion.

Actually, I spent some time as a carbineer/doctor and I can tell you from experience that it is one of the nastiest combos in the game.

Carbineer is a great profession except for the amazingly high HAM costs of all the specials. As a doctor with full buffs, you can ignore that. For the mind pool, I used stat migration to max out all of my mind attributes and the others are horrible - my character is tailored to be buffed.

As far as armor goes, I usually use ubese and try to focus on creatures that only have melee attacks.

By the way, just last night I happened upon a Peko Peko Albatross (well, actually, I stumbled upon 6 :smileywink. I recently gave up carbineer, but I quickly called up a friend of mine that is still a master carbineer. He took down 4 of them all by himself using carbineer skills and some nice composite armor. Just for reference, a Peko Peko Albatross has about 75K HAMs, Medium Armor, 100% Kinetic Resist and 80% Energy Resist and a KD/Dizzy attack.

So, now that I've gotten well off topic, let me get back to my point. If you're fighting things with only melee attacks, ubese rocks. Otherwise, a nice set of composite can be a great way to go.
