And here we go with another one. You can check my post history in better topics with better arguments and even better counter arguments on why logi > assault isn't true, but I'll break it down like this: If you fit a logistics suit to be fully tanked at the cost of equipment, it's gimped down to a slightly tankier, more expensive assault suit that doesn't have a sidearm. Sure, it might win a couple of 1v1 engagements, but Dust is a team based game, that's why we have squads and that's why we have heavy suits- to enforce the teamwork dynamic.

This logistics vs assault drama has long been resolved when the CaLogi was nerfed. Back then, the CaLogi could have the highest buffer through its racial bonus, while still having an insane fitting flexibility thanks to its larger CPU/PG pool. Shield vs armor imbalance at the time also made the CaLogi more dominant as well over the other logistics suits- in fact, the Amarr actually needed a buff at the time. The killer bees died with the CaLogi, but people still complain because they want to blame something for their own shortcomings because through mental gymnastics, they believe that they can do no wrong. I die to assaults all the time, but I don't cry about it on the forums because the suit doesn't make the man.

Are the assault's bonuses underwhelming? Depends on who you ask. Is there room for improvement through better assault bonuses? Ask any Gallente or Amarr assault if they shield tank. Scouts and heavies? Do I really need to ask? Is nerfing logistics the answer? Hell no! All it's going to do is screw over another niche role and if you look around, we have enough of that. I don't know what the other suits need, because frankly, I don't use them and it would be better for those users to look for ways to improve them instead of complaining about a role they don't play because they rather drag it down to their standards. This kind of nerf everything logic is like if I posted a topic to nerf all the other weapons because the plasma cannon sucks.

Lets's face facts: Logi AK.0 is the best "DROPSUIT" in the game right now
Can do everything an assault can do.
assaults run faster with a better strafe speed but nobody will miss too many shots with a aim assisted AR.
More slots than assault
Scouts are a skinny ginger grandson (no offense to anybody)
heavies will survive for .2 seconds longer with the hp buff against a duvolle
Cal Logi has no sidearm so towards the middle or end of the match no sidearm will render it useless (unless you die)

I couldn't put it any better.

I much prefer the Gallente Logi. just because the skill bonus helps with the equipment and role. you can get a great balance of good hp, damage and equipment on it

I am done with this thread. It has turned into a gangbang 1-v-all ignorance contest between the OP and everybody
I will leave saying this.
1. with killing items used in equipment slots (please note that i am using an amarr proto logi)
2. with maxed out tanking moduels
3. with duvolle AR and six kin burst SMG
Logi is more of a threat than a assault.

we are not the selfless people who want to help people but the slayers who want to boost their K/D ratio (not everybody)

go to market>go to weapons>go to light weapons>go to SMG> scroll all the way down(it's around the bottom)

point 2 makes me want to throw up as i have been proving that wrong throuought the thread (again nobody reads my post)
point3 isnt all that bad scouts will have a purpose instead of LAV's in the beggining of the match. and that might atleast give me a reason to continue skilling into assault

Also, Ammar assault and Amarr logistics have the best dynamic. Both are front line oriented suits, but the Assault has a better offensive bonus with laser weapons while the logistics has better survivability. In the end, it's a matter of play style and weapon choice. Neither one is better, just different.

notice how assault is only better with lazer weaponry. who in their right minds use ScR over AR. (people who put sp assault and don't want to switch to logi) i am actively working on getting proto amarr logi and forgetting about my ADV amarr assault
(I wasted sp going to proto heavy frame)

you keep saying this optimal range are you including charge shots?
i will kill u before you finish that awful heat inducing charge
with both guns out of optimal range AR wins.
also in CQC AR wins as better accuracy and damage per shot and RPM makes it the obvious winner
