Please define what a "true logi" needs to fit and do to be "true enough". i dont see anything wrong here in that description aside from the fact i struggle having that much HP with my proto minnie assault without dropping some damagers. Because if i add damage mods i'm bound to use fitting modules too. But hell. That's not the issue. Issue is when dudes just scrub the equipments and fill themselves of proto mods like a giant christmas tree. And i'm pretty sure there's a way to let guys like you keep playing like you do without hurting your kill power while still preventing people from using logis as full tanks\DPS. Those hurts you as much as they hurt use imo. If someone wants to gimp their logi suit like that, let them. Might be able to pub stomp but it's going to be useless when they're fighting organized squads.
I tried to put a level into Amarr Commando once, but got a server notification saying "Why?"

The logi is 3/3 n 3equip slots where as the assault is 2/2/1equip
Now the assault seems to suck unless you use the SCR but since the ASCR doesnt overheat on a logi suit then you dont need the assault suit either tbh unless you go with the normal SCR, but the 2/2 means you either go all tank or all gank, ive tried a mixture of all sorts but my logi beats my assault hands down due to more slots/pg/cpu so more to fit and plus i help my team out so much more as a logi
Plus my logi can be tanked alot more or even ganked while fitting tools on such as a scanner/rep and hives so im more effective
Logi > assault currently First of I'd like you to elaborate on your first statement, just tossing it out there isn't doing much for your "argument". Secondly I'd like to know why you've been negative towards me on these forums for the last half year or so. In almost every thread I make you come in and say something negative, I doubt that it all comes from dissagreeing with me. What did I do to earn this hostility? And thirdly, we compare proto suits vs protosuits, not enhanced vs enhanced, at least its common practice on these forums. The Amar assault suit is currently the best run and gun suit due to the Scrambler rifle receiving its bonus. The gun is insanely good even without the bonus, with it its borderlining OP. Yes the Logi suit reps better and has the equipment slots, all the assault suit has is its overheat bonus, but what a damned fine bonus it is! I've talked to guys claiming that the Amar logi isn't neccissarily better than the assault, they're merely different. Its even been written in one of my previous threads, I believe it was by Mortadelo.
Never ask for someone not you call you something which you dont like, so quiet assault logi tryhard who spams nades
Hostile, you think this is hostile? lolno stop being such a girl
Proto suit i dont really care, adv is a good point for me having both it gives me a insight to the proto and if adv logi is beating adv suit then it may carry on into proto tho proto amarr ass goes 3/3 where logi gain 1 low slot but 5hp/sec which is 1 slot less used
Overall proto vs proto the logi suit is winning these days, they fill the slots up with proto and the equipment is left bare or maybe a the odd thing to benefit them like a scanner and hives but forget the rep or needle
Its not OP, ASCR doesnt overheat at adv anyways, proto it may do and thus be better with the proto suit but i stomp with adv anyways
Only thing which is OP is the aim assist which is more like auto aim |

Logi > assault currently It's an easy fix in my opinion. 1.) Remove the 10% across the board buff to weapon damage. 2.) Give assault suits damage bonuses to their racial weapon 3.) Increase the speed of the scout and assault suits to increase the speed gap. Like someone else said, change the name (although logistics doesn't mean medic in any language I'm aware of) like someone else mentioned. I think the Eve pilots are the ones that started all this mess as logistics ships in Eve are pure support only. If somewhere down the line when we have 100 vs. 100 or whatever I can see a logistics suit being pure support, but it's not possible with 16 vs 16. It's certainly not possible without a respec as there are far more logistics suits out there than any other suit. I have about 5.2 million invested in logi suits and I want no part of not being able to kill.
1. fine also reduce OP aim assist i means autoaim 2. fine 3. fine
In EVE most fleet setups have logi ships but they have no guns just pure logi to rep and help the pure dmg ships
Now in DUST a FPS would this no gun setup work for logi? lolno i dont think anyone would except it hence why they have no sidearm, maybe give them just a sidearm but then ppl complain they cant long range fight then

Please define what a "true logi" needs to fit and do to be "true enough". According to these forums, and anyone who isn't running a logi fit in game, a true logi is someone that does nothing but supports his/her team/squad. Absolutely no frontline battling. I constantly argue the contrary. You're doing it right, people get far too upset in this game when they die and instantly QQ on the forums. Keep up the good work, my fellow logi. |

Logi > assault currently You're wrong. I did a complete comparison of load outs for the Logistic ck.0 and Assault ck.0 ( HERE ). Both suits I have, proto level, all core skills lvl 5, weapon/prof level 5, etc. The assault variant is a FAR better slayer than my logi. The added speed and sidearm makes up for the on average 50-100 less EHP the assault suit has than the logistics variant. This differs per racial suits, at a very small margin. No logistic suit has a "god-mode" or clear cut advantage to the assault variant when it comes to slaying.
Do your homework next time you go talking about something you obviously know nothing about. I try not to troll, but your blatant stupidity needs to be corrected. |

Spectral Clone wrote:Easy solution: Switch high/low slot layout of every racial assault and their corresponsing logi while retaining the CPU/PG allocation for both.
Then assaults can be versatile in assaulting (by the use of different type of mod combos), and logis can be versatile with equipment.
Actually the Minmitar Logi / Assault kinda does that.
Assault Mk.0 High Slots: 5 Low Slots: 2
Logisitcs Mk.0 High Slots: 4 Low Slots: 4
I'm not really sure why they designed the Assault that way but I do notice there aren't a lot of Min Assaults running around out there. Especially with the Armor buff.
I started out with the Min Logi and am now working on the Assault. It doesn't really make sense though as my Assault is much much squishier than my log will ever be. even at proto level!
Now wouldn't common sense dictate that a front line soldier would have more HP than his support in the back? yeah it would! But that isn't the way CCP did it.
It appears as though the increased equipment slots on the logistics suits should have removed the high or low slots from the suit. However this isn't the case. My suggestion would be give logistics suits the exact same high / low slot configuration for it's assault counterpart, with an increase in equipment slot / PG CPU per respective suit, basic, advance and prototype level. |

I guess the purpose of this thread is not to find a way how to fix 'superior-to-assaults-logis' but to discuss the playerbases view on how the logi players are supposed to play the game.
Of course there has to be limitations, and on this thread here discussion is going on about it. (fix: reduce log PG+CPU but make general logi bonus a huge EQ fitting bonus)

The vets have seen the engagements go full circle. We've had CQC builds, the viviam laser build (when sharpshooter extended range) and everything between. For CQC builds the sidearm logi wouldn't be bad, but a lot of matches right now are at distance.
I don't think any level headed person could actually be serious about sidearm only for logis.
Remove time in battle from ISK payout formula and provide a bonus to winning team... Watch battles become fun again.

Stop being a ******
You picked caldari suits
I use amarr so far and the logi has a sidearm plus if your going assult a lazer rifle is best because of the bonus, or you dont use the bonus to lazer so you might aswell get another suit
Logi also has no slots filled, generally you can have a better tank even with some equip slots filled
Speed is also a nonfactor with aim assist turned to the max which locks on until you die and with TTK being so short it doesnt matter plus the speed factor is quite low anyways |

So I'd like some input from you guys and girls, this is what I do:
I run the Caldari Logi suit, no secrets there. In any given pub game where I don't use any of my assault suits I stick with this setup:
- Proto Scanner - Allotek nanohives (Gives you either 40 armor or 45 AR bullets per impulse, proto level and insanely expensive to fit (88/16)) - Enhanced medkit.
So since the Cal Logi has "only" 3 equipment slots I do use the allotek hives to get a dual function out of them. I do need to restock my ammo and sometimes rep myself. I normally lay down a hive on top of a dying merc before I revive him as long as he is in decent cover, this way I can use 2 equipment for more or less the same job as I would need 3 for if I were to use a rep tool. The equipment costs 161 CPU and 29 PG to fit which limits my tanking ability and I'm down to 667 HP.
(For CBs the medkit gets exchanged for uplinks and my bunny hop extender are switched to a PG uppgrade, which is stupid, I shouldn't be forced to use 2 low slots for fitting modules just to properly fit my logi suit IMO..).
I don't exactly stay behind my squad, I'm normally very aggressive and up front and attacking/defending/killing is my primary task, I support while I do my soldiering, as any logi should IMO.
So I ask the community:
Am I not a "true logi"? And WTF do you expect me to do? I'm just tired of all the QQ.
Please define what a "true logi" needs to fit and do to be "true enough".
Ever since I have had the pleasure of playing with you I have seen you do nothing but perform your assigned role to the best of its abilities in the context of the fight.
I find this new push for the Logi-bros to be nerved, especially in this thread by Logi Bro just goes to upset me. Much the same as the name calling is effecting you Babar.
Here is what I recommend people do in this act we are now calling GÇ£defining the logisticGÇÖs roleGÇ¥ in any battle or corp: SUPPORT your TEAM and your SQUAD to accomplish the battlefield objectives, I.E., WIN, SURVIVE, and PROSPER. The role of a logistics is to provide a walking options depot for the members of their squad and to provide additional assistance to their team as the situation dictates the necessity and the availability to do so.
Myself, since the entrance of the Amarr medium class suits have been an Amarr logi, worth the occasional reversion back to my Caldari roots of assault class. So what does that mean? Well my way of supporting my squad and team is both with options and additional killing power. I was assault originally so it only makes sense that history would shade my perception and implementation of logistics in the field. And that is in conjunction with the shifting conditions of battlefield necessity.
We may begin with a specialization, but all of those that have this erroneous delusion that because I support my squad, my team, and ultimately my corp that I need to be hamstrung because of my ability to effectively utilize my skill selection choices to the advantage of my brothers and sisters in battle is just a ridiculous.
Why donGÇÖt they learn to be more effective in the field and better negotiate their role in respective groups given the circumstances of the situations they find themselves in?
Babar, keep doing what you are doing and I look forward to seeing you in battler once again. Frustration or no! |

One-dimensional-minded slayers need to STFU Out of a friendly sake of argument, why isn't slaying the enemy considered a support role? Wouldn't killing enemies near an objective or near your squad/team be supporting them? If your team is down by clones, wouldn't killing enemies to equal the clone count be supporting your team towards a win?
I'm by no means defending the assaultlogi, but it makes sense that slaying enemies should be part of the "support" role logistic players should fill. Clones play a pivotal part of winning battles in this game. If I can take out enemies as well as revive fallen teammates, wouldn't that be more of a support role than just brining up fallen teammates? |

Why the necessity to quantify things? It doesnGÇÖt speak to any more truth or credibility than the use of your subjective interpretation of those results.

There is no "true logi"
While they are the best fitted to do so, the Logistics class was designed to be versatile, not a "GFT in the back and rep me and give us ammo" class.
The "true logi" argument is something spawn by people who think that the Logistics should be nothing buy 100% medics.
And this is coming from someone who uses their logistics suit for triage.

If you play your first couple of matches in dust as a sniper, you will always be a sniper in the mind of people. Probabily you have been assault for a long time and now nobody believes you are a logi.

"True logi" is one who doesn't want their support playstyle gimped in a CCP over-reaction to the (perceived/real) ability of logi suits to out-perform assault suits in the assault role?
Dunno. I wouldn't use the term "true logi" myself. "Assault logi" and "support logi" work for me; makes the distinction clear without denigrating either approach.

*note to self: **** off Barbar by calling him a tryhard*
Nothing wrong with being a logissault. It's CCP's fault for not making actual assaults more appealing.
However a "true" logi runs an exile at best. Not to toot my own horn, but I was at 16million sp before I put a single point in handheld weapons. Up until then it was a Toxin & REs at best.
No.

So I'd like some input from you guys and girls, this is what I do:
I run the Caldari Logi suit, no secrets there. In any given pub game where I don't use any of my assault suits I stick with this setup:
- Proto Scanner - Allotek nanohives (Gives you either 40 armor or 45 AR bullets per impulse, proto level and insanely expensive to fit (88/16)) - Enhanced medkit.
So since the Cal Logi has "only" 3 equipment slots I do use the allotek hives to get a dual function out of them. I do need to restock my ammo and sometimes rep myself. I normally lay down a hive on top of a dying merc before I revive him as long as he is in decent cover, this way I can use 2 equipment for more or less the same job as I would need 3 for if I were to use a rep tool. The equipment costs 161 CPU and 29 PG to fit which limits my tanking ability and I'm down to 667 HP.
(For CBs the medkit gets exchanged for uplinks and my bunny hop extender are switched to a PG uppgrade, which is stupid, I shouldn't be forced to use 2 low slots for fitting modules just to properly fit my logi suit IMO..).
I don't exactly stay behind my squad, I'm normally very aggressive and up front and attacking/defending/killing is my primary task, I support while I do my soldiering, as any logi should IMO.
So I ask the community:
Am I not a "true logi"? And WTF do you expect me to do? I'm just tired of all the QQ.
Please define what a "true logi" needs to fit and do to be "true enough". on my amrian depending on how i wanna run my suit it require a complex cpu and pg module either both or one ..its pretty stupid..as an amarian it pulls from my tank sadly... let them qq the assault logi qq holds no water |

Well clearly you aren't a true logi
True Logi's don't have an equipment loadout that fits all ... they have different equipment loadouts for different situations
eg If your attacking a point or in Dom/Ambush you want to start off with :-
Uplinks/Nanohives/Scanner .. Give your team/squad a frontline with ammo and scan for enemies
If your defending a point :-
Injector/Repper/Repair Hive to maximise repping or replace the rep hive for a scanner to make sure you are reviving people in safety
if you combine those 2 loadouts you can basically have uplinks/nanohives/repair nanohives/injector and repper at the frontlines
You can also combine with remote explosives on objectives etc etc
The key point here is a true logi changes the equipment they use based on the equipment of their squad/team and the situation they are in .. the fact that you referred to the hives you use ' I do need to restock my ammo and sometimes rep myself' indicates that you aren't a true logi .. I run rep hives and a repper/injector because it acts as a stationary rep area for my squad / team to go to if i am otherwise engaged eg reviving a fallen comrade/repping someone else/dead .. if the main reason you run equipment is to benefit you then you don't have the mindset of a logi and are infact an assault logi
I often switch my equipment out at a supply depot because the situation on the battlefield changes and I need to support my team in a different way
PS Using an injector and only a triage hive really makes no sense .. Triage Hives have a limit in the number that can be placed which means you restrict yourself to the number of people you can revive and repair // Restrict your own range of being able to revive and rep people ..

A true logi must have no gun game!
lol, jk. but seriously, why do you care what those tools think? If I don't get at least 2 hate mail per day I feel like I'm not doing good enough.

This line is what you are not a "true logi" Babar, no offense intended obviously.
This line in your though make me think that you are a "Teamplayer" but you don't want to gimp yourself for the team.
As a Heavy ( class that NEED logibro to shine) a core repper or a proto Hive make the difference for me, on how and for what time i can defend a point. Having a Logibro on my back help me in my push on Letters and Enemy holdings
If we want to use a catch phrase:
For Ass.Logibro: First come myself, then the team.
For true Logibro: First the team, then myself
just my 0.2 ISK
...and may the FORGE be with you.

I don't pull out 15 different fittings in a match. I coordinate with my squad mates to make sure we've got everything covered. A few tweaks to everyone's fit and you are good to go.
The beauty of this game is the combinations one can run with their suit. It just so happens that the logi suit is capable of more, but that was clear for anyone that can read for plenty of time for folks to choose their suit.
The assault and scout suits need to be better. We don't need to make logi suits worse.

Why the necessity to quantify things? It doesnGÇÖt speak to any more truth or credibility than the use of your subjective interpretation of those results. Why shouldGÇÖt I be able to slay and support my brothers and sisters? You apparently like living the smallest possible box you can construct for yourself. I, on the other hand, have no desire to be confines. That is why I CHOSE to become a merc and shed the coils of a single mortal body.
You misunderstand. He wanted a definition, I gave him a possible definition; people like maths to prove points in this game so it seemed appropriate. Personally I think if you prioritize equipment and have few or no fits that have open equipment slots, you're good in my book. Besides, saying that at least 1/4 of your points should come from something besides kills is hardly restrictive!
(My only restriction is that I do not have world class gungame so for me to go in Rambo style is a bad idea. I need a pretty big box to hold my 30 different fits including sniper load out, bomber load out, CQC load out, AV load out, infiltrator load out, etc.)

There are many ways to support a team. The problem with logi is that most of the community locks it into doing one thing (medic).Thats pretty much most of the communities idea of logi.Then you have the bend over support players who follow the communities idea of logi and bash other because they don't bend over like them.Then you have the assault babies that cry if anything other then assaults kill them or your not shinning their Ars.
Last time I checked there is no logi only equipment.Logi Suit also have racial bonuses that player spec around.But like other games the dps always want support to server them their way.How ever you want to support your team as a logi is fine with me .This is supposed to be a sandbox game no one's going to tell me what to do with my sand.Its you sp ,your time invested and if you us aur , your money.
SO +1 STFU to bendover logi who look down on other support type logis. +1 STFU to Assault who cry about ever logi not running all medic role. +1 STFU to Assaults who cry about logi players messing up their k/d. And +10 STFU to any scouts and heavys(non medic logi complaints)because you have enough problems. |
