zzZaXxx The Exemplars Top Men. 224	Posted - 2013.10.22 04:29:00 - [1] - Quote Not being able to see teammates health kinda headshot my play style. I got busy anyway and haven't been playing much but if I'm able to use a repair tool again it would give me some motivation to log in. Any word on that?

Kallas Hallytyr Skullbreakers 11	Posted - 2013.10.22 11:59:00 - [3] - Quote I would very much like it if Logistics could see friendly health bars. It would let them focus on helping teammates without giving them an offensive buff. Maybe Assaults could see enemy health bars! :P
zzZaXxx The Exemplars Top Men. 228	Posted - 2013.10.22 23:05:00 - [4] - Quote Have devs given any indications on this?
Artificer Ghost Bojo's School of the Trades 1126	Posted - 2013.10.22 23:20:00 - [5] - Quote Can I get likes for having the Repair Tool show a percentage amount on the machine, instead of having to guess that he's fully healed by looking at the health bar? I want to milk those heavies of their WPs...
KAGEHOSHI Horned Wolf Dominion of the Supreme Emperor God-King KAGEHOSHI 6635	Posted - 2013.10.22 23:38:00 - [6] - Quote Ideally aiming a repair tool at someone should show their health bars.

Cosgar ParagonX 6354	Posted - 2013.10.23 00:46:00 - [8] - Quote Gave up on my repper and have been using triage hives ever since.

Yes, this is absolutely necessary, and different reppers could have varying scan ranges. Flux being longest, Core being short, etc.
zzZaXxx The Exemplars Top Men. 230	Posted - 2013.10.24 02:47:00 - [10] - Quote I think they'll probably do something about it. It makes no sense for them to have this equipment in the game that's supposed to be a core part of the game mechanics but is useless in practice.

Skihids Bullet Cluster Legacy Rising 2327	Posted - 2013.10.24 03:31:00 - [11] - Quote Logi tools get neglected by CCP. Expect it to take another 4-12 months to get the health bars back. My guess is that the code doesn't easily allow for different mercs to get different displays so they have to pick one and that was decided in favor of snipers. It wouldn't be a high priority for CCP since the tool still works and with the backlog so deep, well...

CCP Wolfman C C P C C P Alliance 2630	Posted - 2013.10.24 03:36:00 - [12] - Quote We've fixed this and are aiming to get it out in 1.7. We are also looking at the repair rate and considering an increase.

Vyzion Eyri The Southern Legion The Umbra Combine 1551	Posted - 2013.10.24 04:40:00 - [13] - Quote It kinda varies for me. Sometimes my repair tool shows HP bars, other times it doesn't. And if repair rate is being increased I recommend increasing HP overall, for both dropsuits and shield extenders/armour plates. This, plus the repair rate increases, should jack up TTK enough to make sustained combat possible, and fun.

This, plus the repair rate increases, should jack up TTK enough to make sustained combat possible, and fun. The enhanced shield extenders should be bumped up to between 40 & 44 because there is no middle ground. It goes from 22 to 33 to 66 and they should lower the computer necessity the programming can stay the same. I know none of you care seeing as most of you are prototypes anyway. I was just trying to expend on this good ideal.
RedBleach LeSanglant Hellstorm Inc League of Infamy 436	Posted - 2013.10.24 07:09:00 - [15] - Quote CCP thanks for the response, we need to see the status of our comrades and I need a faster lock time (or alternate solution like an AoE seeking the lowest or highest armor if no aim lock is present).

We are also looking at the repair rate and considering an increase. Will you change the race/look? Since minmatar are the shield transfer race it feels like the current logi tool should use a blue light and heal shields you need an ammar armor rep some day.

Do you feel that the active tanking capability of repair tools isn't stacking up very well to the current TTK?

My Repair Tool is so neglected lately. +1 It's not that it's to neglected it's just soo hard to actually help someone out when you can't find out who is low on armour. You actually have to be in squad on comms, recognize their voice and then find them ... before their dead. CCP Wolfman wrote: We've fixed this and are aiming to get it out in 1.7. We are also looking at the repair rate and considering an increase. HEEL YEAH !! It's also nice to see that you WILL INCREASE !! repair tools repair rate because right now the only use of a repair tool is just after a combat when there's no danger because repairing someone while in a gunfight you'll only grant that someone a few milliseconds longer (especially against someone using a SCR or duvolle) What i'm pretty sure a lot of people want to see is having a bit more of eve logi kind of fighting where actively repping someone while he's in a fight will actually make a drastic impact on his survivability (would also buff the heavy logi combo) Arkena Wyrnspire wrote: CCP Wolfman wrote: We've fixed this and are aiming to get it out in 1.7.

He sooo Arkena how much time does most of your kills take ?? what a few seconds with that SCR of yours ?? THAT'S F****** WAY TO FAST !! And if someone is getting repped while in battle he'll get what a millisecond more to live in being able to do hmm nothing. It's kind of wierd saying this but have you tried playing TF2 ?? even been up against a heavy with a medic repping him ?? Kind of tough to kill.

Tell me how your Logi-tools aren't working well enough for you, while CCP is removing the ones I use...

Are you doing anything about the way WPs are earned from repairing? Currently the same number of points are awarded at the end of each cycle regardless of the rate (amount of HP repaired per cycle). This actually penalizes the use of higher level repair tools as they require fewer cycles to do the job. This rate increase is great for game play, but would result in reduced Logi WP earnings if the award mechanism doesn't change.
