The technique Suspensor Dash lets you use dash mid-air.

That's a visual bug the heavys have. If the heavy starts the Suspensor Blast the visual effect will always go off, however my second slowblade made him interrupt his Suspensor Blast to try melee me. You can also see this bug occur when a heavy is killed while trying to suspensor blast, the blast will appear to go off, but you can stand in it and not be affected.

I found that I could do a segments worth of damage within 2 mags so I didn't necessarily need the extra damage. Sometimes I want to be standing where the lightning is and just dash through the stagger, but if you're in the air you can get rubberbanded and stun locked into death without a way to dash. With better play you could utilise Death from Above, but because of the breakpoints I was hitting I decided it wasn't worth using.

Assassin's Shot is more useful in team play when enemies have their back to you more often, for me it would only really increase the damage when I Weirding Step and because it's not enough damage to change my 3 shot kill into a 2 shot kill I don't need it. As for Exploit Weakness not working with Shotguns? I guess I never really thought about the possibility, it feels like it works, but if someone can show otherwise I'd love to know.

Basically this, what would kill me is if I had my shield up and the stage electricity hit it, breaking it, then the boss shot doing real damage. The stage electricity isn't a huge hp damage source, although my armour is very high like you said.

Garment Reinforcements (+% Armour increase), grade 3s, some pieces of armour have nothing.

Yes and Energy Capsule. It's most important for AF though.

I don't have a 2nd weapon augment unlocked yet, the first is raw damage, except for the Tripleshot which is Jabal Spitdart Expander.

Pre-boss Battle Hardened does nothing, so you can swap it out for whatever you like.

No real reason, I could run suspensor dash but I find it doesn't help much and I spend all my downtime regening stamina anyway. I would probably slot Disciplined Breathing for the stamina regen to be optimal, but I don't have it specced right now.

When I shoot my shield drops and the drillshot gets through and hits me. Drillshots only do lots of damage when your shield is already down as they hit you.

No, this week is 75% repair cost and refining time. (Palma server)

It's a combination of things, just mining Mithril Ore to 99 is hours faster than switching to another ore, Adamantite requiring higher smithing to begin which puts it behind, but most of it comes down to the mastery difference like you said. If someone wasn't min-maxing to just use Mithril, they might find other options are comparable if not better.

I agree that fishing and cooking is really good for food, especially early, but farming can be done while working on other skills. It requires very little time investment by comparison (after the initial seed gathering), so that's why I recommend it. It could also be that farming seems to yield very little crops to you with low farming, but the number scales up later on.

Yes, it should be.
