Depends upon what you want to do?
I have both, and use them, in vastly differing ways, only bringing out the Assault when the enemy is really proto-ing it up.
Are you supportive or more assault? Do you run in squads or solo?
A two sentence post asking a question like this is kinda useless. |

Logistics. The 5 HP/s bonus as well as the 5th low slot make by far the best armour tanker when combined with its numerous equipment slots. |

According to CCP they will change the armor repair bonus that logis have, so in order to avoid any future regret just go with Gallente Assault. |

Go both, it's only about 12k sp to get each so just wait a day and you can both using the passive SP
NOTE: it's 12k sp once you have basic gallente suits to level 3 |

I'd tell you to go logistics, but I hold out some hope that CCP can at some point give Gallente Assaults a proper bonus.
If they just moved the 25% fitting reduction from the weapon to the low slots, they would actually be competitive. |

I would like a source on this as well, I have heard many people say this and it would be good if its true, I know they are going to redo the racial bonus's to be equipment based but I have not seen any confirmation they will be removing the armour rep bonus. |

I apologize about not being more specific. I already have proto Cal Logi. I like some do not feel the bonus justifies going assault or logi but just sticking to basic, also the basic Proto Gallente reminds me of a really Bad A** batman. So that is why I am asking what would be the best course to go with knowing I have a proto Cal Logi. My opinion the Logi is the best to go with due to its 5 low and 3 high with HP repair bonus would make this a better assault than the current assault build. So what is your opinion on which is the better of the three to go with? |

Choosing the proto basic frame will save you a lot of SP, but will cost you a hell of a lot of isk. I have Minny logi fittings that are tougher, faster and cheaper than equivalent light frame fittings.
Right now, there is no doubt in my mind that the current GalLogi is a better assault than the Assault. But we've seen this before. You especially. |

the Gallente medium frame is not worth it imo, and the reason is you really need the fitting bonus in order to get a good proto weapon on and decent enough mods to survive.
PG is gonna be your main problem with a Gallente assault, but you should be able to get around 700-1000 ehp and 6.25-12 HP per sec with max skills.
some people even go max ehp with no healing besides a repair nano hive.

Are you going to use the Logistics as a Field support Logistics or another assault suit?
The Gallente Logi is too slow for a assault unless you get your speed up.
The Gal. Logi is the best suit for equipment based logistics work. |

If you already have equipment skilled up to proto, I'd go with the logi.
But if you are looking for a second suit I'd go with the min logi. The hacking bonus is great and overall the min logi is the most versatile suit.
The calogi is the best assault suit in the game at the moment though. Speed matters not. Dual tank the calogi and throw a damage mod on. If you are short CPU just drop an equipment or two. Apparently CCP didn't want people logi'ing in that suit anyway.
In your situation I'd stick with the calogi and dump SP elsewhere.

Also triage nanohives are only a good idea if you are shields and need a your armor repaired because you got scratched or carry a lot of them and expect to die a lot.
I work on the philosophy of playing like you're not going to die a lot so I don't do that crap (guess what I don't die a lot)
Repair tools are pretty good but have been crippled because you can no longer see the health of enemies.
Repair tools will always be better than triage nanohives unless you're a shield suit. |

Agreed, for calogi I'm only running a combo allotek hive and a scanner. If I had that 50 CPU I'd run an uplink as well.
Instead of running regulators I run plates. Shields don't recover as fast but I can drop two alloteks in dire situations and be full enough to finish off whomever comes around the corner with a grenade.
I used to run a proto ammo hive and triage hive with a proto uplink. I could set an excellent front line for pushing points with two triage and an ammo hive near a choke point, set an uplink a little further back and it was on.
The level of stupidity nerfing the CPU of a logi to prod us from being assaults is hard to comprehend. It's like taking water and soda from the designated driver at a bar. Perhaps it's nothing like that, but both are stupid things to do.
I don't even refer to myself as a logi anymore, but I honestly miss it. But it makes zero economic sense to run over 70K of equipment on a glass suit in this build. |

It's not my thread, but I still feel the need to point out that the question was Gal Assault vs Gal Logi.
Not equipment vs KDR, or both vs Minmatar.

Gallente Assault. Logi suits in general are very risky to skill into due to unpredictable changes in the future. If you want to support though go logi. |

Well the OP is in my corp so before he dumps 2.4 mil SP into a new suit that won't perform any better than the one he's got I'll throw out my opinion.
And the best advise I can give to anybody is to not chose things by using a crystal ball to anticipate nerfs. That is as stupid as it gets in my opinion. |

How can one be disappointed in the calogi? This build killed speed tanking. I questioned people dual tanking a calogi when people were QQing about it.
Dual tanking a calogi is beast mode in this build. Nerfing the CPU suit gave it one purpose, beast mode assault suit. |

For competitive play, I would say logi offers far more versatility, being able to tank more than assault, get more fitting space and slots, more equipment slots so you can resupply, revive, and repair. With the reduced armor penalty, logis wont be as slow as a heavy.
For assault you have a bit more speed and base health with only one equipment slot which would probably end up either being revive or nanohive. A sidearm although I dont use it as much. If you need to reload, find cover, if you need a weapon to fall back on, use a grenade. A sidearm is useful but not necessary.
I am currently making the same choice. Heavily leaning towards logi simply because I can do more than an assault while retaining high kill ability with even more eHP and a built in complex rep.
Surprised that CCP cant even balance logi/assault right. Logis want high eHP since they're vulnerable despite the fact they're meant for support/backup and shouldnt be in enemy crosshairs. Most people fit their logi to be a heavily armored/shielded assault class with more equipment and no sidearm. If CCP wants to do a better job at seperating the classes, they need to do a better job at seperating what they can or cant use. |

Go assault. Cheaper to use SP/ISK wise, racial bonus wil be even better once we get hybrid sidearms, good at hybrid tanking and you get better overall stats. |
