I cant get to my ps3 right now, so I'm wondering if anyone has ran a shotgun on a logi? Thanks to the fitting tool, (damn I'm glad we have one) I've come up with a build that uses active scanners, remotes and a nanohive on an advanced winmatar logi, 7.8m/s sprint speed, 230 shield and 150 armour with advanced SG. Anyone have any experience with a suit like this? |

Essentially the shotgun is the perfect niche weapon, it is useless out side of its optimal range, but nothing else can put out the raw power it has at CQC. The problem with a niche weapon is you need a sidearm to make yourself viable is areas farther than 10m, and the Minnie logi lacks the ability to do this.
Besides, as a logistics unit you shouldn't be getting into point blank range with the enemy.
The Idea behind it is to use the active scanner to be able to choose engagments rather than the run and gun style of SG on a scout or assault. The suits got an enhanced shield energiser rather than a third complex shield extender, just to free up the PG to fit on the equipment on the suit. Really need higher fitting skills, they just take ages to get and I'm easily distracted by new weapons... |

You also NEED Dampners, don't listen to the people that say you don't need it.
So, Scan-
Then Flank the most vulnerable enemy. I don't run any Armour modules since you need all the speed you can get. If you've been spotted, then run the hell away until you lose them. Too much trouble to engage multiple enemies in CQC, this won't be a real option until aiming is fixed.
The wide and slow (DS3) acceleration is what's getting me killed the most. Correct me if i'm wrong, I don't use the scanner, but doesn't it give away your position when you use it? I would assume that would render the dampeners useless....
Wait what? The scanner turns me into a lovely yellow christmas tree for all to see? If I drop the scanner then I could fit a second militia kin cat, taking the speed to 8.1, but that means no extra stamina from running a stamina mod thingy. Basic build idea I have so far is:
K5 or CRG shotgun 2 complex shield extenders enhanced shield energiser 2 militia kin cats cpu enhancer compact nanohive remote explosives
That last equip slot is starting to bug me now.... |
