Battle rewards of all types other than PC need a rework, ISK vs Risk is completely skewed. Obviously you should be able to pull a better reward from any battle with better gear ie more functionality/survivability but such is often not the case. Even with the better rewards offered by the Pub matches it seems worthwhile to point out that one side wins and the other loses and Scotty is often drunk enough to make all the mercs on one side fresh out of the Academy but for a smattering of proto users, while the other team is fully squaded and plays PC on a regular basis. Risk vs reward then tanks for the side from the Academy and skyrockets for the PC players just by being in the battle. Higher Risk should entail higher payouts, and in this case the main risk is that Scotty is going to take a dump on you.
As for the number of suit that you can purchase if you do exceptionally in a Pub match, invariably it comes down to how many you can afford to replace after the match even if you win the WP ticker. I say this after being in several matches today where I was running only standard and advanced gear, and seeing first hand just how bad it can get. There is no way to really cut your losses other than to run starter or bpo suits if you are up against a stacked team. You will die more often and you will lose. Plain and simple. As a logi the problem can be a lot harder because without your good kit you stand to make far less wp than if you were to run even advanced gear. While you may be able to replace 4 or more suits if running standard suits in pub matches you will be receiving mid grade pay as well and still be receiving the equivalent pay to a WIN in FW batlle with only enough isk to cover your 1-3 fits listed. Certainly not what you want if you are looking to maximize your earning potential.
FW payouts though are terrible. There is no way at all to recoup losses, or to consider funding your gear by running faction gear.

You should make a thread about public battle rewards, and propose an alternative system.
I have this has been said, what did they do? Released Uprising, then with each subsequent patch it has been said as well.

This actually might make sense if you take into consideration the lower SP cost to use all the faction items. Basically it evens out the need for the user of the items to have the SP to use the regular gear, but until we have the ability to sell stuff this still is a lose lose system that we have in place, look forward to a market soon (not TM).
