Much has been said up until now about the new bonuses but perhaps this angle hasn't been looked at by most people.
I realized that the Gallente Logistics bonus is the only one that you can only share the benefits with a limited amount of players in your team.
A Caldari Logi can share his improved nanohives with his entire team.
A Minmatar Logi can share his improved repair abilities with his entire team.
An Amarr Logi can share his improved uplinks with his entire team.
But a Gallente Logi will only share his improved scanning abilities with 5 other people, at most. He'll only reap WP benefits if it's his squad mates killing the scanned enemies. I know scanning has quite an impact on the dynamics of a battle but it still seems to me these bonuses come from a flawed perspective.

Most people will only be dropping nanohives for their squad, or healing there squad, and dropping links where told by their squad.
It's a team/squad based game where everyone has the same goal in mind. Winning. Just cause scanners arent shared by team doesn't make it bad, just means you need 3 gallente logis.
No idea on my guns right now. Getting majority to level 3 at least, then deciding.

That's incredibly flawed reasoning. Independently of how squad minded the use of nanohives, uplinks and even repair tools, it's a fact that every single member of the team willbe able to share that bonus. That isn't true for scanners.

its cus scanners being shared by the whole teams really OP.
But hey if u dont want the bonus and the give a respec just spec out, but as it is now if we get a respec I'll be going gallente logi, because since scanners are getting so nerfed, they'll probably be rare, so someone with a proto gallogi one is gonna be rare and super helpful.

If this is an issue, it's an issue with the equipment itself, not the suit with a bonus to it.

I don't really mind the logistics bonus. I know it's Meh at best, but whatever. More scan powuh!
Thing that bothers me is the assault bonus. It sucks so bad! This is coming from a guy who has Assault 1 and Scout 4. |

I agree, the bonus kinda sucks. What i also dont really understand is why minmatar get a bonus to rep tools. If you read the description the rep tool is a mixture of all factions technology. In my opinion all logi's should get a bonus to rep tools, and the minmatar should get a bonus to nanite injectors or something.
I think it will also encourage logi slayers to stay logi slayer. Right now a gallente logi is a pretty good slayer, and if they dont have good support bonuses the gallogi will stay the same. There will be people who run a gallogi and just use scanners to go kill people. |

I've made some calculation:
With gallogi bonus scanner precision is: STD 34.5, ADV 27, PRO 21 or 11.25.
Scouts have a profile of 35, with dampening at lvl 5 it's 31.25, with a basic 26.56, with an advanced mod is 25, with one complex mod it's 23.43.
This means that you will not be able to scan scouts with an advanced scanner if they fit a dampener.
Medium frame suits without dampeners but with dampening skill at level.5 can be scanned by a STD scanner.
So the ADV scanner is almost useless, you can't scan scouts with it, but you only need a STD scanner to scanner to scan almost everyone else with a few exception.
BUT the A-19 adv scanner cost less cpu/pg than basic scanner.
For the last thing i want to say that i don't like those bonus on equipments because they force our hands, fit the equipment which we have a bonus is not mandatory, but only a stupid will not fit it.
1.8 it's so secret that nobody know what will be in it, even after patch notes...
