I'll cut to straight to the chase: When is something going to be done to alleviate the problems Logi players have with the repair tools not showing health bars, losing our ability to get a triage overview, etc.?
You claim to be a Logi. Indeed, a Logi's "bro." But if this were truly so, you'd be mad as hell--like all us *real* Logis--that our ability to do our jobs was (and still is) severely hindered by an update to reduce visual clutter. Well, we need that "visual clutter" in order to see who needs our help the most. That's the job of a medic: triage. And we can't triage without information.
So, it's time to put up or shut up. When are we getting relief? Is this how it is to be? Is this "working as intended?"
Help us, Logibro, you're our only hope.

Yes, but as a member of the community team, he is our voice to them and their voice to us. As a self-professed bro for logis everywhere, he is our last, best hope to get this issue in front of the very Devs who have the ability to change it and restore our ability to effectively do our jobs.

If it were always visible it would clog up the screen. Imagine having four friendlies in front of you with a bunch of reds in the background firing on you. Itd be messy looking. I'm pretty sure this is why they changed this in the first place.
That being said. What I think is a better idea is making the little arrow above friendlies heads blink if they had low armor. The lower the armor in terms of percentage of total the faster it blinks. We would of course, keep the ability to look at them and see the full stats. I don't have to imagine it. I have played when all health bars were shown. Given the choice, I'd rather have the information presented so I can know who needs my heals the most. Having to swap to a gun to pan the battle, swap to a repper, remember who I just was looking at, heal them, swap to gun, scan the battle, swap to repper...is ridiculous. It's too many steps for a simple action. And on top of that, it's asinine that my repper doesn't show health bars for friendly targets. The tool should act in a way that it shows friendly health bars in range of the tool. I don't need to see reds. I don't need to see people who are too far away. But having an arduous process for triage isn't working.
