Simple idea... how about getting rid of the built-in armor rep bonus for shield-tanked logis and swap that out for something shield related?
Amarr and Gallente logis keep the passive armor rep... and Caldari and Minmatar get the bonus switched to a larger base shield recharge rate.
Right now with the armor rep bonus for all logis, this just encourages either dual tanking... or caldari logis stacking damage and running with plates.
How about the role differentiation starting with suit bonuses?

I never liked the rep bonus, and I hate the blanket bonus system altogether. I'd rather each class just have a pair of racials to better customize suit roles.
I tried to put a level into Amarr Commando once, but got a server notification saying "Why?"

I can see how that bonus is a vital part of a logis survival since he can rep/stab everyone bit himself. But bonuses that are essentially free PRO mods, independant on was is actually fitted make no sense.
I have a crazy idea: "additional 5% of repaired amount applied to own dropsuit per skil level"

The problem with that, especially in the case of Minmatar logi, is that you are assuming the racial suits are bound to a certain tank-path. Minmatar are very capable of both shield or armor tanking. I myself armor tank most of my min logi fits and run damage mods and precision enhancers in the high slots. |

I'd be okay with that if i could rep myself with the rep tool...
Aint such thing as spider tank here on dust im afraid, not because the mechanics, but the lack of reptoollogis on the field you see =)

That has less to do with the Minmatar combat philosophy, and more to do with the fact that Armor+Damage mods seem to be the current FotM. A real Minmatar suit would have an even mix of damage mods/extenders and Kincats/Regulators, maybe 1 Plate. A suit isn't a armor based suit just because it can armor tank. The Logi Ck.0 can armor tank, that does not mean its an armor based suit.
