Does anyone know how strong Syphon's lifesteal is? I'm trying to see how effective this loadout is:

Juggernaut

Spoiler:

OJ Lucent Guardian MK3:

• T4 Vampire Shield
• 3 T4 Nano Initiators
• 5 T4 Damage Diffusors.

Weapon:Syphon Hallow Point Assault Rifle/SMG modded with a T2 Catalyst Injector

Shield:

• Ironclad / Rhino Booster V ARK (extra HP) or Berserker V ARK (to synergize with Vampire Shield)
• Rynclad ( Ryronclad ) / Ryno ( the maybe bugged shields from S1-E2 missions, although I don't support it's use because of Plates and because of PvP unbalance)
• EXL Ironclad Rearm IV EX / EXL Darkest Hour(Wetwork Synergy or Firewall is recomended)

Perks:

• Insult to Injury
• Bloodsucker
• Fortitude
• Blast Shield
• Celular Armor

This brings us to 10% + 6% + 10% = 26% Base Lifesteal and 5% + 6% + 10% = 21% Base Shieldsteal.
Factoring in Vampire Shield, we get 26% + 8% = 34% Shieldless Lifesteal and 21% + 8% = 29% Shieldless Shieldsteal.
Now the Injectors and the Syphon Proc: 10% + 15% + 6% =31% Syphon Proc. Chance on Critical shots and 10% + 15% = 25% Syphon Proc. Chance on Body shots. Why does Syphon's Proc. matter? Because it heals.
Now for the mitigation: 6% + 5 x 2,5 % = 18,5 % damage mitigation.
Congratulations, you're now a Tank. You deal less damage but you also take less damage.

Notes:

• In some uncommon cases, it may be better to use an Omni Instigator with 5 T4 Syphon Intensifiers;
• If you're trying to resist a specific nano (Expos and, to a lesser extent, PvP) , it's better to install 5 T4 Resistors instead and equip the correct nano resistance Perk and nano resistance Shield;
• If you are able to see what you're aiming at, a BMG user with a high HPS VOT Spanner Protector can help boost the loadout's Tankiness even more.

The Defiant Few Bloodhound MK2 is amazing for PvP.

I have a question for those who are playing PVP.

You met with the person, which can’t be seen and you can’t kill him, but he can kill you?

I explain: guy was standing 3 meters away from me and shooting at me, causing me the damage, I know he was there because I saw a flash coming out of the barrel, but I didn’t see him and my bullets flew through the empty space and they didn’t causing him any injury. He doesn’t use the Cloak, because I didn’t seen this specific glow / outline.

Mr. kevtom59100 wrote on the chat: it’s a hacker (!) But how could hack ps3?! Perhaps this is another bug of the game?

It is a bug. It can happen if the connection of the invisible guy is slow.
As for kevtom,ignore. He thinks that anyone that can kill him is a hacker.

Yep, it's an old bug usually happens to those who are playing with bad connection

LOL
This guy is a little strange, as his team loses, he goes out of the game.

Probably you are right. It remains for me nothing but pray for me to be with him in the team.
Anyway, it will not be WhiteStrike, it will tarmim, or someone else with whom I can’t cope.
Unfortunately I can’t play better. But there is no need to give up, I have to fight to the last…
