Meh they can keep it, its not really overpowered, it doesn't help in combat!

That's with an advanced weapon and not using the best hives/repair tool you could use.
Remember logistics is the most expensive class to run.

I have proto scout suits that cost more than that with a third the ehp, advanced sidearms only and standard equipment. The most expensive part of your fit is by far the suit itself.

And besides, i don't see what any of this has to do with logis needing that repping bonus, especially since you've got a repper on it anyway.

Doesn't help in combat? It's a free complex module for survivability. That's a combat bonus.

Keep seeing logis saying this in all the balance logi threads when people say the innate bonus is stupid and it just makes me aww.

Yeah, who is going to rep the logi? The logi who can easily carry repping hives perhaps? Or maybe another logi because they tend to run with the pack? Or how about you Just use your many slots and masses of cpu to fit an armor repper?

The whole who's going to rep the logi argument is bull. How about you take a second to think about who reps the scout. The scout being the only player whose job is generally to run around alone because other players give away your position. And it's not like we have slots or cpu to spare like you do.

TL:DR - the logi bonus is BS and needs changing and anyone defending it is full of crap.

What the heck is this thread even talking about? I thought a Logi was a guy who stacks armor and damage mods and killwhores, while farming even more WP by setting down a hive...

what is this repping you speak of?

Yeah and who repairs heavies? Assaults? scouts...?

NOT THE LOGIS since they are too busy killing everything.

If the bonuses would see removed and changed for the very useful 5% CPU-PG fitting cost reduction to equipment,THEN we might be some repair tools on the field.

Logi's rep themselves with nanohives. /thread

Read the op mate. The reason i mention scouts is because i am one. No one reps me and i don't want anyone repping me because they'll give my position away! I know Im not going to get repped, so you know what i do? I have a repper in one of my 2 low slots!

Now you others saying logis need innate reps, that is BS. You want to be able to tank to the max and never worry about repair. You have so many slots that sacrificing one for a repper is really not that big a deal and it's not going to stop you running decent gear.

And Im not even getting involved in the whole logi vs assault argument. All Im saying is that if you want to have repair without having to rely on a logi to do it for you, you'll be in the exact same situation that everyone else is. We can't all just assume that there's going to be a repping logi following up around every game, especially in pubs! So we use armor reppers and sacrifice something else that might also have otherwise been very useful. That's the way this game works - you can't have the best of everything. But when i hear logis saying things like some have said in this thread it sounds very much like you think it's perfectly fine that you should be able to do it all.

That is BS.

This guy obviously hasn't met Reiselia or he'd know about her OP rep tool dropping 2 solo OB's in skirmish matches 1 of which was just from repping fools.

I may not know who is going to rep the logi, but I know who's NOT going to rep you.

Tech, I've always liked you mate but think we're just going to disagree on this. The bonus could easily be replaced with something else - Im not necessarily advocating a nerf, just an adjustment. Logis can easily fit reppers and don't need it built in any more than any one else.

You make it sound like just because some people like to use logi suits for their assault builds, no one uses them for support builds anymore. This is ridiculous. It's never been like this, and it's not like this right now.

I suppose we both agree that assault and logi suit bonuses are BS for the most part. Still, there's not need to pull some arbitrary claim out of your behind to make up for some actual arguments.

Who's going to rep the scout really?
Scouts are lone wolves, staying ahead of the team to relay intel.

Fun fact:
There are no logis without 4 low slots and above.
That's right, they can all fit as much armor **** as a Gallente assault, even the Caldari one, while still having that +5hp/s rep.
Let that sink in.

Yeah fair play, I just get mad being lumped in with the assault logis but here's the funny bit, I picked amarr logi and am now speccing in min logi because the sidearm no longer warrants the lack of speed for me lol.

I fked up big time.

I'd like the Gallente logi to have its bonuses switched. The Gallente seems to me to be the closest to the traditional 3 Rs of the logi; Repping Reviving & Resupplying.

The CPU/PG bonus on the other hand, is something that suits all logis perfectly, and doesn't give them a combat advantage.

The argument that logis can't rep themselves is a valid one, but still the armor rep bonus for logi suits is wrong. Of all the suits, the Gallente assault should get 5 HP/s free armor repair, but certainly not a shield tanking caldari logi.

However, since logis need to be alive to do their job, I see nothing wrong with a built in 1 HP/s armor rep for all logi suits, similar to the Minmatar assault. That would keep them prepped up over time while they do their job in the back row.

And if a logi wants to stay alive under fire on the front line, he needs to fit the modules for it like any other suit and slap on an armor repper. That's what the many slots are there for.

The skill is 1HP/s... per level. Otherwise it would take 4-6 minutes to repair all the armor - and rarely do any of us live that long. That is a worthless bonus. It would not keep them "repped up over time".

Logic failed. But you bounced back with a module suggestion so I guess we can discount the previous error.

We never said you were an assault logi.
All is throwing out logi proposals aren't trying to hurt real bros, but kill the blemish that is assault logis.
Actually, a few propose+és include a buff to fitting the equipment the truebros use.
