DUST Search - [Feedback] A Message From A True Logi

Let me start off by saying i pride myself on being a true logi and have been since i first gained a basic understanding of dust back in the early closed beta. I am not a logi because i have no gun game i am a logi because i enjoy helping others play the game to the fullest, i have a PSN alt on which i have a assault and i rack up 15-20 gun kills per match with no problem. On my logi i focus primarily on healing and supporting, but i do carry a light weapon of the same tier as the suit i'm wearing.

There are numerous times where i have just barely escaped with my suit and only because i had a light weapon. With the introduction of the rail-rifle and it's 100m range if i were stuck with a Submachine-Gun with it's 25 meter (rougely) range i feel that that is highly unfair and would punish the true logi's more than the slayers, the slayers can just switch to a assault and carry on, the true logi's get stuck with gimped defence capabilities.

I feel that instead of hurting the logi's you should help the assault, i think that you should change the assaults shield recharge skill to something more assault oriented. For example a damage increase to racial weapons (now that they all have one), a increase to sprint speed, an increase to scans, i'm open to anything. I'm just saying don't break the logi because the assault isn't up to par yet.

...... i felt it was my duty to speak for the logis.

Salutations, 843 & Ullysses firstly, because your posts are equally on target to me. I usually hate for any player to speak for me, but you did it with care and courtesy 843, so you've got my respect and thanks. Here is the unusual environment of New Eden (EVE): I am a DS operator. This gets me referred to as a pilot (and they even have a pilot's dropsuit in development), but I will always use a Scout suit--and have it pimped out to help me succeed more in fleeing/hiding/surviving more than an intentionally shooting it out. I stubbornly insist on using a DS for transport and light cover-fire only, never for ADS combat or headhunting. The only Logistics "label" I can claim is on my vehicle, Prometheus. Yet the game does refer to players like me as "Artificers" (those who commit to assist/support/repair even at the loss of WP and leaderboard hopes). They're talking about pulling my Logi vehicle out of the game soon, but I'll only respond be pimping out a standard dropship to serve my "Logi" purposes. My classification and gear has confusing and undefined borders... But that's what's GOOD with the New Eden playground. If someone wants to use the Logi suit because it "suits" their assault playing style better than the "assault-stamped" suit---rock on! Nothing needs to be nerfed/buffed/tweaked to undermine their customizing scheme. New Eden citizens should be encouraged to cleverly scheme as much as they want with their assets. And in this case it means a true Artificer like 843 (embrace the "artificer" term, 843... the word sounds so friggin' cool!), should go on choosing a Logi suit that allows him some "non-Logi" weapon room to defend himself when his position is overrun or he gets ambushed by folks who "don't respect the red-cross--WAIT DON'T SHOOT ME!" Pimping out a scout suit with non-scout modules is MY scheme for not getting captured and beheaded when I'm shot down over enemy country.
