It's not going to make a difference because if need be, a logi assault can put 3x compact nanohives for hardly any CPU/PG cost.
Personally I think a logi with no equipment is gimping himself. The module slots and CPU/PG of the suit itself don't make it OP, it's the access to equipment. If more logis are playing assault roles and not using equipment then fine with me; it means their team is less effective as a whole. |

Let me say this first: I always use all equipment slots so this doesn't really apply to me.
However, as I said before I don't think this will make an appreciable difference.
Morte, I guess you have an issue with advanced logi suits using Duvolles/Core Locus and as much tank as possible by dropping their equipment?
I tested fits with a Advanced Gal Logi, and I can get around 901 EHP with 2x Complex Extenders, 1x Complex Plate, 2x Enhanced armor plates, and no equipment. To equip 3x Compact Nanohives I need to replace one enhanced plate with a basic, dropping my tank to 873 EHP. But I gain the ability to heal my armor and spam at max 9 grenades. In this circumstance I'm better off with the nanohives and slightly less buffer than without them.
On a Advanced Cal Logi I can get 797 EHP using 3x Complex Extenders and 2x Enhanced Plates, or 742 EHP using 3x compact hives and 2x Basic Plates.
In either circumstance there's not a big difference in tank, whereas having ammo/grenades to restock yourself affords a much greater advantage in my opinion. |

If I must use three pieces of ADV equipment on my ADV Gal Logi, I lose about 57 HP worth of armor in exchange for an A-45 Active Scanner, KIN-012 Nanite Injector, and K-2 Nanohives. Still running a Duvolle and Core Locus. Not a bad trade by any means.
On the Cal Logi, there's a significant difference in EHP due to the CPU nerf and now requiring one slot to be used up by a CPU upgrade. I lose around 148 EHP running the same equipment as above.
Proto Suit requiring Proto equipment only will never happen. Not unless they require proto modules and proto weapons/grenades too.
CCP is all about making this game a sandbox, and allowing customization. The worst they will do is change CPU or PG as they have done in the past (unjustly) with the Cal Logi. |
