so stupid.
This only adds further ways for logis being able to WP farm
injector, nano (repairer), scanner = WP farm. 15s will be popping up everywhere, and injectors give 60Wp more than a kill.
Seriously, do you not want anyone to play the objectives? Or do just want people to play one suit and one role and WP farm.
WPs in this game are so messed-up. |

WPs in this game are so messed-up. I usually run a scanner on my assault suit. This will give everyone more opportunities to "farm WP". The thing is you need to be out and actively engaging the other team to get these points. This will not stop anyone from playing any objective, nor will this only benefit just one suit or role.
So if thats the case why in pubs do I use a adv min logi suit and not my cal assault suit? Because logi suits are the way to maximise WP which maximises SP
Its not about 'everyone getting more opportunities' its about CCP increasing the number of support ways to get WP which further promotes the logi suit and a certain type of gameplay, rather than promoting a more dynamic type of gameplay via WP, for example playing the objective where you earn WP for defence or attack in a certain radius of an objective.

WPs in this game are so messed-up. Ideally Logis wouldn't get tons of WPs from kills, but as long as the Logi suits are on par, if not even better than the Assault suits at the assault role there will be problems with this. Logi suits need a hard nerf (coming from a Logi) in combination with a slight buff to Assault suits. I could also see something like soaking up damage as a Sentinel give WP since the ability to get similar amount of WPs as an Assault from kills etc is nearly impossible in the Sentinel's current state (+Assaults can also get WP from their single equipment slot). They're not so much getting a nerf as getting a specialized role. I don't remember where I saw it but Logi's are apparently getting their bonuses changed so that they are more akin to their equipment, rather than the warfaring types they currently are. Which means we'll probably be seeing the passive +5HP/sec armor repair rate disappearing in place of something... useful. I think all the complaints about Logi's gaining more WP is unwarranted, honestly. You can have all the WP in the world but it's not going to win you the match. Maybe some of these guys should go check out Ambush again and see how bad it is -not- to get kills.
to those that think this its just about the 15 WP for the scanner its not. Read my second post. Its about logis having the ability to WP farm because they have weapon (kills) and numerous equipment slots.
As bendtner points out its because the suit.
my frustration is that CCP keeps rewarding a 'support' role. If CCP changed they way WP were awarded they would get different gameplay e.g. WP for defending attacking objectives in a certain radius.
Why use any other suit when a logi does everything and then some and can maximise your WP.
(also it was a stupid equipment implementation. Its breaks the passive and active skill trees. Though they were broken before the scanner was introduced) |

WPs in this game are so messed-up. seriously , NEVER SPAWN ON AN UPLINK.... EVER Dont ask for ammo Dont expect to win running 500m to the objective when you die Dont use the help of a scan stay away and find you own kills AND most of all dont expect me to care if you are under fire and need my support cause i'm turning the other way
You and logis are not special snowflakes
I repeat: I use an advanced minmitar logi suit to max WP/ SP in pubs
My suit consists of all the equipment you profess that makes logis a class and special.
Its the default suit to farm WP. Because CCP keeps on making stupid decisions on how WP are earned in this game.
To an earlier poster a squad regularly does 50 kills.
An assault who repeatedly goes 20-0 will still only get 1000 WP. A logi can go 0-20 and still hit 2/3000 WP by using equipment alone. They will have done little to win the game. Hence why logis are rarely seen in PC.
The incentives of gameplay are wrong |
