Today many poor guys suffered the fury of one, unkillable guy. Smart guys tried to take out the logi first, but they couldn't. CCP: You know you broke the game again, right?
What do you guys think? Are reppers ok the way they are right now?

You should be glad that a logi as using their repper. Especially since we still can't see health bars yet.

Saw you doing that the simple answer is to use a massdriver. This means i hit the heavy and the logi at the same time.

Yes, for now. We all know that mass drivers are broken because they deal more splash damage than what it is intended to. There was a vid last month showing it

My apologies for being a nitpick here but spider tanking would require each person to be repping each other making it impossible for anyone to have a firearm out.
That aside it may be the perverse joke by CCP for how they are going to fix the HMG Fatty.

Well, actually it is possible, but I'm not going to spoil anything n.n
Anyway we tried that: me and a mate were in the center of the map ringing around the roses! It was awful how nobody could kill us... but, yeah, we didn't kill anybody xD

Considering that In order to have one hard to kill Heavy or Assault - 2 - 3 Logi players must drop their weapons to rep them continuously.
So where there were 16 guns there are now 13.
I would class this as a tactic. |

I would love to see more spider tanking! It is a very rare thing to witness. I'm guessing that it is hard to do or it's not profitable because it is so rare (in pubs). |

Like ive sayd use area of effect weapons to counter a logi repping a heavy. Once the logi is dead the heavy follows him into his grave. Ive tried this aswell but usually the logi gets killed when a core locus grenade is beeing thrown. And you are talking about pub matches where the majority of players barely know how to hold their gun. In competetive matches 2 AR's pointed at you will neglect by far any repairs you have.

Its very profitable. Its not really easy or hard, you just have to fight every instinct you have to take cover or return fire.
You will die often and have few kills,
Lotsa WP
Lotsa isk
Lotsa suits burnt in a fire
you are always sniper bait
hope you don't care about your KDR if you do this often, but yeah profitable. |

What you saw was not overpowered.
It's smart tactics being utilized by smart players who know how to work together as a team. The reps are fine according to some folks I spoke to. These tactics are a clear indication that the logistics and heavies are being used in a way that is intended for their design and those players are executing it flawlessly.
Don't nerf their success. Just buff your tactics to counter it.
CCP, please fix the Nova Knives. Thank you.

Basically it's when you are all repping each other at the same time.

thats the point, logis are able to assault better than assaults because of better hp, the logis and assaults need to trade high/low slots to be balanced |

I know its pretty clich+¬ but teamwork is the only way to counter this right now, and honestly that's probably as it should be. I mean..... it takes teamwork to pull off the repper OPness, so it should take good teamwork to counter it. I kind of like it honestly, it adds more to the game in terms of fighting dynamics.

Logis only have the most slots at proto. I run advanced 90% of the time and only get 3H/3L/3E and have to use a CPU enhancer for my equipment that probably costs as much as a proto assault.

I encountered this with a friend yesterday.
Unfortunately for the spider tanking group, we were both carrying core locus. It pretty much hard-counters anything with 'armour' remotely involved.

Spider tanking in Dust is pointless. The entire structure behind spider tanking is that one repper can out-tank multiple opponents and you can operate those reppers while shooting the enemy.
In dust, even with the repper buffs, a single repper cannot tank ANY opponent. DPS will always win the race.
It's more akin to having a non-combat logistics ship that can't even save one person.
Reppers in Dust are worthless. Even now. |

Spider tanking with vehicles used to work pretty well when a few of us from TSOLE did it in Codex or something but I don't know if it's any good these days. But you're right 1 logi repping is useless and it's not really worth it taking out 3-4 guys just to keep one guy alive, as it would be much easier (and faster) to all shoot the enemy and kill them before they even have a chance to do damage. The only place I can see this strat being even semi-viable is in pubby ambushes and domination.
To the OP it's only going to be good until people realise that burst damage counters high regen per second.
