It's been awesome since the cap has been removed, however I forsee a potential issue that may arise with the new FW mechanics.
What if we purposely inflict damage on a friendly target who recently has attacked an enemy (thus making repairers eligible for triage WP), to semi-farm WP?
Given, there are probably more effective methods that don't require being close to enemy units, but it could occur, and it could be abused.
I'd say Triage WP needs to be reduced by 10, to +15 WP per cycle, and guardian WP needs to be boosted to give the same amount as a kill, so +50WP. This would encourage logibros to use repair tools in the middle of conflict, which can only be beneficial to the team because usually too many guns at once in a FF-active environment means you're doing more damage to your team than the other side.

or we could use the current mechanic that only allows triage points when an ENEMY has damaged a friendly under x seconds ago.
If this could be exploited, you would see this kind of thing happen in PC matches where you could sit in the redline and collect massive WP for a quick orbital.

No this was the scenario I imagined:
You shoot enemy and enemy returns fire, damaging you into armour.
You run away, and a logibro comes and reps you.
Then the logibro starts shooting you, to reduce your armour so he/she gets MORE WP, because it's still within x seconds of being damaged by or having damaged an enemy.

They already have a mechanic in pc that disables triage points for damage done to your team by your team. I imagine this will apply here too. Now If only they would fix TTK.
No you kill this blueberry hacking the CRU we are camping. I already killed the last 2.
When will they learn!

Tried this in a PC. You don't get triage for friendly fire. And quit crying about TTK, it's not broken. Move on.
