Active equipment, scanners and reppers should be the things the give you points!

Logi's need to be rewarded constantly for being a Logi. The more you can incentivise a Logistic class to run support the better for DUST 514 as a whole.

Logistics facilitate fights in DUST 514. The intensity and the stand off's you experience in DUST is almost 90% of the time created by Logistical roles on the battlefield.

People argue that this is a first person shooter and they should be just as competent with a gun as any class.. I dont agree.

I Believe Logi's should have a natural disadvantage in Offensive abilities... But have a Large Health pool to make up for it. As the large health pool will help them stay as active support on the battlefield longer.

The more we incentivise and reward Logi's for true support of DUST 514 the better the gameplay will get as a whole.


We are now discussing how all Logi equipment should be active and give rewards.. to make it more tactical and more rewarding then passive drops. Risk should equal isk. I would be pro making the active equipment even more SP then what it is now as passive drops.

AND an active drop uplink sounds wicked to me. I have 10 ways it could work... (example 1: Remote mine style) You plant it activate it when needed and it spawns in people for a given amount of time before popping.
with this I would also want to see more equipment carried or the ability to reload it at a supply depot.]]> Mon, 14 Apr 2014 22:43:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/1723737 <![CDATA[Logi dont NEED points for passive drop equipment - by Bethhy]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2052224#post2052224 Athena Sentinel wrote:

I actually agree, but I'd go a step further and suggest removing passive equipment entirely.

Instead of nanohives, create something like the repair tool that replenishes ammo for whoever you hold the beam on.

Instead of drop uplinks, have beacons that you hold, and that allow other players to drop down onto your position (similar to dropping out of the MCC).


Great idea man!! Risk should equal reward..

I think you should make a whole new thread on this topic! OR I will Big smile !]]> Mon, 14 Apr 2014 00:05:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/1720898 <![CDATA[Logi dont NEED points for passive drop equipment - by R F Gyro]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2051578#post2051578

We have almost completely killed off the medium suits, but they are still flopping around a bit, so lets give them the killing blow.

I'll give up logi WP when scouts give up all weapons in place of a pair of binoculars.

The idiocy that 1.8/scouts have brought to this game is ridiculous, and the threads (by scouts mostly) are getting stupider by the day.]]> Sun, 13 Apr 2014 17:59:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/1720230 <![CDATA[Logi dont NEED points for passive drop equipment - by Silas Swakhammer]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2051386#post2051386 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 17:08:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/1720162 <![CDATA[Logi dont NEED points for passive drop equipment - by rithu]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2051331#post2051331 Athena Sentinel wrote:

Buy your own links then.
Run your fat azz all the way from the CRU.
I would MUCH rather proto stomp anyway.





Um than due that.. The point is someone would WANTS to play logi does not need points for passive drops.

If you playing logi and would much rather play another style.. why aren't you?]]> Sun, 13 Apr 2014 14:31:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/1719876 <![CDATA[Logi dont NEED points for passive drop equipment - by The Headless Horseman]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2051031#post2051031 Athena Sentinel wrote:

I got few kills but I support my team in the best way through uplinks in the right place, nanohives that resuply and repare, and of course my ative scanner. all these cost a lot of SP and ISK. I use proto and advanced equipment.
Do you gave any idea how much it costs???
My scanner is 19 000 ISK]]> Sun, 13 Apr 2014 06:00:00 +0000 dustsearch/guid/1719312 <![CDATA[Logi dont NEED points for passive drop equipment - by Athena Sentinel]]> https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2050411#post2050411 Soldiersaint wrote:

Well if thats the case then i guess assault players dont need points for kills. but i know your trolling so i will leave alone for now.

Just like shooting enemies to stop them from hacking your node. I really don't see the problem of rewarding someone for using a piece of equipment as opposed to say... REs or anything else that directly blows someone up.

Even if it's a problem, it's about as low on priority as you can get.
