DUST Search - Logis, what would you do if the logi class bonus was equipment PG/CPU reduction?

I skilled into Minmatar logistics because (1) Winmatar, (2) I had the SVER, and (3) the module layout was pretty boss.

Then I realized that the Gallente bonus was way too good for me to not be using it. I don't feel the hack bonus is that great to begin with and it's not like there's a bunch of options for high slots (or hacking modules) anyway. I slap on my equipment first, my modules second, and then I gently insert whichever SMG/Pistol that fits last. That Gallente bonus was made for it.

At first I was going to say that i'd go back to Minmatar, but I think i'd stick to Gallente even if the racial bonus was changed to something stupid...as long as it wasn't shield related...probably.

You?

Erm, it's great that you guys have ideas on what the new racial bonuses would be, but I really only wanted to know what it is you'd do if the class bonus was changed to the Gallente racial.

Absolutely yes, the general Logistics bonus should be what is currently the Gallente Bonus. There is some more to what I feel would bring proper balance, but to be on topic, I completely agree.

People have come up with these things a thousand times in a hundred different threads, but seriously it should look like: General Logi bonus: Equipment CPU/PG reduction Caldari: Nanohive bonus Amarr: Uplink bonus Minmatar: Repair tool bonus Gallente: Active scanner and/or nanite injector bonus. Been Logistics since before it was cool.

I actually rather like the hacking bonus, I think it fills an important roll. But in short here is the summary from that report for Logistics. Logistics Role Summary Logistics Role Bonus: +% to reduction of PG/CPU cost of equipment / Lvl Caldari Logistics Bonus: +% to Nanite Capacity of Nanohives / Lvl Gallente Logistics Bonus: +% to Repair Rate of Repair Tools / Lvl Amarr Logistics Bonus: +% Reduction to Drop Uplink spawn time / Lvl Minmatar Logistics Bonus: +% Hack Speed / Lvl ADS Reports - Defining Racial Themes

It just makes sense, and prevents logis from being such outright superior armour tankers. That and the Assault bonus should be the Commando's reload bonus. But that's a story for another thread. No.
IgniteableAura Pro Hic Immortalis 371	Posted - 2013.11.28 05:42:00 - [9] - Quote I think it's a terrible idea. Reasons being it would only make the logi suit even more op than it already is currently. With the fitting bonus to equipment it allows you to fit a bunch of proto equipment AND buffer tank like crazy. Adding this across the board would be a mistake. If they cut the pg/CPU of the logi as well as made the fitting bonus that would be alright. All of the log bonuses need to be iterate on anyway. None of the really fit. Hack bonus needs to b on a scou suit. PHI Recruitment or PHIsh Tank in game Twitch

If they cut the pg/CPU of the logi as well as made the fitting bonus that would be alright. Yes I agree. Effective CPU/PG should remain the same, meaning reduce the cost of equipment and pair that with an equivalent decrease in base PG/CPU. Again, all outline in my report linked above ADS Reports - Defining Racial Themes

Lol no one wants to answer your question they are too busy with wild speculation. Anyhoo if my logi suit changed so the bonus of 1hp/s/level became the Gallente logi racial bonus I would stick with my suit anyway but considering I use the Gal logi anyway (have done since uprising 1.0 so don't start claiming I chase the FOTM) not a great deal would change except losing 5hp/s which is manageable. TEST signature please help me think of a better one.

Would also free up space on Assault suits running hives/injectors.

Funny I went exactly the other way round I started with gallente exactly for the equipment bonus, but made made me somewhat addicted to the minni is the speed advantage. The minmatar is the only logi that can keep pace with advancing assaults. And I like the hacking bonus although it is situational and depend strong on the game mode you choose.
