Level playing field here. We all play DUST so I'm looking for as many opinions as I can get.
I can't quite seem to narrow down what equipment I'd like to carry (ie: specialize in). Logic would seem to dictate that I then pick a Logi suit, but alas, I am infatuated with the Minmatar Assault suit (a romanticism of my days in Eve Online). So, I have but one equipment slot and I'd like to give all my options a proper, thorough, verbal bashing.
So, let's hear it!
What equipment do you prefer to use? Why? Does it help you, your team, mostly one, mostly the other? How so? Is it specific to your playstyle/suit/weapon of choice?
What equipment do you hate? Why? Everyone else uses them? Too hard to fit? Not as much utility? Or perhaps you just hate when the other team uses it to beat your ass?
Want to just give me an essay on all of them worthy of Kant? Sure, I'm down. Oh, and uh, any secrets you'd be willing to part with? |

I find the equipment that is most helpful are nanohives. If you are worried about armor reps, I recommend you look at the advanced hive that gives both ammo and armor repair. |

Scanners, until people get serious about stealth (may never happen). Otherwise rep nanohives, get to dabble in resupply and triage. Plus you can keep yourself going for long stretches. |

I find the nanite injector in pubmatches more annoying than useful as i usally get revived infont of 10.000 wild raspberries. |

Im a Logi and equipment should be in this priority
1. Triage Nanohives
2. Drop Uplinks
3. Active Scanner
4. Nanite Injector
5. Repper (this would be 4. but with the current aiming of it, it's basically a squad only shout out if you need a rep tool'
Logi's will/should always have Nanohives on them and you would expect them to have Uplinks on them as well If you aren;t a Logi it's usually best to have either a Scanner/Uplink in your equipment slot, obviously if your a Sniper you'll likely go for Nano's if your red line sniping .. No good logi will stay in the red line with you to resupply just you lol |

Scanners for life.
If Commandos weren't god awful I would consider skilling into them just to use a scanner on a "Heavy"

Make 3 different suits.
1 with a scanner
1 with nanohives
1 with either uplinks/remote explosives or whatever you want

This is what I do. Whats usefuland what is not depends on how the match is going. There are cases when uplinks are needed and case nanohives are needed don't limit yourself. |

If you want to be a more general assault guy, go with nanohives to resupply yourself and your teammates. Some can even be used to repair armor, but the downside is you can only bnefit from them in he sites you dropped them down.
If you want to be more stealthy, go with active scanner to locate enemies to hunt down or avoid. Also great for helping your squad know enemy locations.
Go with nanite injector or repair tool if you want to heal your teammates. Repair tool is probably safest since it lets you heal from distance.
Go with uplinks if you want to set spawn points for your team, and watch as the war points fill up, works great for a fast suit like the Minmatar assault. |

I'm a Scout and usually go with Adv Quantum Scanner. However, Drop Uplinks, and Hives are my second and third choices. |
