That should go to the most skilled not the ones droping militia logi and nanoinjecting people in combat to die again just for SP... You know its true! Awww It may use no skill, but it helps teammates out a lot. |

You are deliberately missing the point. Logis alone are useless, nobody here has said we should all be logis. At most 1 good logi a squad is all that is needed, maybe 1 every 2 squads.
Now to be fair, a squad of assaults with good planning can run without a Logi. However I've seen one logi and 2 heavies cream wave after wave of assaults and scouts when holding an objective. There is a time to shoot and a time to rep, the guys who don't know the difference are just not very good.
Think of time as a commodity and you'll see that an assault hacking an objective is redundant when i can hack it in half the time, while that assault is killing people. There is a point where too many people are shooting one guy for example, there is only one kill and the guy is already as good as dead. So what do the other people do? Other actions that help the team and facilitate the victory. |

Good luck slaying when you have no ammo and can't spawn outside of objectives. Two teams fight against one another, each have equal skill. The team the uses 2 or 3 logi will win over those that don't. Even the team with all logi would win because they have more flexibility.
Its actually 100x easier to play as a slayer, because you point and shoot. Logis must rep, place hives/links, scan and pick up teammates.
Just wait until they fix the repping mechanics, then you will see logi top the boards more frequently. |

lol, i have a .41 KDR and i am averaging 400K wp over my first 2 months. i apparently don't have a clue as to what I am doing!!!! I'm the guy that will stab you in the back to save your drop suit and if a red dot comes around the corner I run at him to take the bullets my self. So obviously I'm NOT a team player and I DON'T deserve the WP's for it.... Let me know when your down and I will be sure to let you bleed out if that's the way you feel... |

CCP was talking about creating squad based uplinks.
How do you feel about being able to create a "ban list" for your equipment? You could place mercs who clearly don't want your help on the list and said equipment wouldn't work for them.
Extend that to using another color for their bars and dots on the radar so we can decide whether or not to rez or repair them. |

lol is this guy like the most hated at the forums now?
The support for the dedicated ( not the assult guy in a logi dress ) was something I needed.
To al that have defended the logibro thumbs up.
The rest, don't spawn at uplinks other then your own, don't resupply at the hives and when you die don't w8 to get revived ( better to insta spawn at home base and have a long lone walk back to the lines if its a problem giving away "easy" WP.

Totally justified!! Without decent logibros the team will run out of ammo and can't spawn back quickly...or can't save clones.
KD ratio is totally irrelevant as a logibro, your goal is to SUPPORT THE TEAM. And since your kill rate will automatically go down if you do that, they should get compensated accordingly.
Often when I run as a logibro I make it possible for my entire team to hold a crucial location...without me, they couldn't do that...and that includes the heavy who ges 20 kill in return. |

If you drop a spawn point and go to a supply depot you can change suits drop a nanohive, change again and have a nanoinjector - all will work for you at the same time, even if you die a bunch. Its almost like cheating lol
it requires no skill and no game knowledge, but you will get the most WP and most ISK and most Exp from it...
Lame you're crying because ppl are gaining meaningless WP that doesnt even boost their SP much. and how is this effecting you? you seem to put to much importance on a pub match scoreboard that no one will even care about or bother to remember.
WP accrual in a match directly correlates with how much money you as a player gets. And each WP is 1 SP. |

Let him go on on his rant. He is only bitter that ppl play the game with al of its variables.
My guess is that he is a alt even! Slayer, lol know one person that uses that word a lot when had talks about the game but he is banned from the forums.

Did you read this post? You put too much emphasis on the importance of K/D. Helping your team with nanohives, uplinks, repairs, hacking objectives and installations, etc. is just as important (and in many cases far more important) as getting kills. This is why the end of match scoreboard reflects the highest WP in order from highest to lowest instead of highest kills from highest to lowest, because helping your team trumps everything. Sure, you can win a skirmish by cloning the enemy, but that's rarely the smartest approach unless you wanna risk loosing a lot of ISK in the process. |

I still don't understand this supply depot/equipment nerf that's in the works. People keep saying that spamming gear isn't strategic, but if you actually study warfare you know that logistics is largely a numbers game. The side that can supply more food, clothes, and bullets to its forces often has a huge advantage. In other words, quantity matters in logistics!
Again, why does the marketplace have so many similar types of uplinks and hives if we aren't supposed to be able to use them in suit switches? Why would I continue to regularly purchase every proto uplink and nanhive on the market if deploying one pops the other? It makes no sense. |

Pretty much this. It bugs me that people complain that it isn't fair that logis can switch between suits and get their equipment back to help support their team.
IT IS A LOGI'S JOB TO SUPPORT HIS/HER TEAM. Not everyone plays the "charges into battle blindly and shoot the bad guys" play style....some of us like helping and supporting our team. We should be able to utilize are equipment freely to do so without any type of preventative. |

That's it, !.4 is amazing compared to 1.3 for hit markers = damage... My KDR has gone up by 1.3 and still climbing every match :)
Heavies have an easier time dropping guys due to the hits actually hitting, one of my Directors Master Jaraiya is a dedicated heavy (see his posts from before) and like he stated Logi is key to his ever climbing KDR. yes there are logi out the that are not good at killing but they make more then up for it in supporting the team and get the WPs to show it....
That is how you judge a logis worth not his KDR his WP, hell thats how you judge all mercs worth plain and simple.

I tossed away a decent KD of 1.5 (before I got good :p) to receive a .89 KD so I can rep rez, and resupplying you frontline heavies and assaults. Do I get a thank you? Nope. Instead I get no cover fire while I try to revive more of you guys. Instead, I lay down my own cover fire and I often absorb more damage then a heavy can even dream of so stop QQing OP.
If you are on my team in a battle, ill make sure to be close to you when you get wrecked by the heavy I didn't demolish. |

From what I gather it's a way to get infinite copies of a single equipment such as militia drop uplink x infinity and that's what's being fixed. |

Agreed. CCP Logibro, throw us a (more specific) bone here! What, exactly, is the "bug" and how is it supposed to be fixed. If not currently "working as intended" then what IS intended?

If I had to guess, I would say:
One has 3 Fittings (3 for simplicity)
Fitting 1: Minmatar [STARTER FIT] with a Standard Nanohive
Fitting 2: Minmatar Standard Medium Basic Frame with a Standard Nanohive
Fitting 3: Minmatar Standard Logistics with a Standard Nanohive
I'm guessing by switching between these fittings that, because they are different dropsuits, one could deploy 6 Standard Nanohives instead of only 2.
Just a guess, I really have no Idea because I'm a Heavy. |

Bottom line: A team only of slayers will destroy a team of only Logi
A bunch of assaults attack a point and are introduced to the logi's MD A bunch of assaults defend an area but what they don't know is they will run out of bullets long b4 the logis do. A lone wolf assault try's to flank a bunch of logis and gets scanned then mobbed. An assault attempts to hack a point and is blown to hell with REs. The assault clears an area of logis but are then surrounded by the very logis they have just killed not 8 seconds ago thanks to there strategic uplink placement. Let's not forget the butt-load of WPs they will be getting from supporting one-another so I suggest you keep a roof overhead as the forecast is partly cloudy with a 100% chance of orbitals.
Oh, you thought it was just equipment that logis focused on? Lol only a fool fails to see the full potential of there allies/opponents.
As a scout, I have died many times by logis utilizing there many sub-roles and I can say without a doubt that a single logi can change the tide of an entire battle. Someone said that a logi is useless by themselves but this only applies to "Bros" aka "medics". A DemoLogi can easily destroy a handful of proto assaults (Logis in my corp have done it on countless occasions).
@OP: I get there your gripe isn't the logis doing there job but the way they are going about it(supply depot bug) but in all honesty I can't really see a problem with it. Not to mention the fact that most players think that the bug is actually by design. I am, however, grateful for the information on the bug as I was one of those not aware of it. If this bug is going to be fixed anyway then, when you think about it, there was really no point in this thread

No, This will result in your hives destroying each other.
Could be that you can resupply equipment by refitting but that too is just a guess.
