As a Veteran I know a lot of Vets that won't pick up a killing game. If they do play a MMO they pick up a medic/support role class. And it got me to thinking about how flimsy logistics are in the game. Unless you are one of those guys that uses it as an uber tank with no equipment what so ever. But also the fact that you have to fit a gun to every-suit.
During War a medic isn't suppose to carry a gun or be shot at by the enemy. I realize that New Eden doesn't follow the Geneva Convention much like modern insurgents/freedom fighters and thus making players not shoot at a player with a medical symbol is just crazy.
Suggested Idea
A heavy that has as much hit points as a normal heavy or more, with the speed of a Minmatar logistics. But no fighting ability at all. So no grenade slots or weapon slots. Unable to fit remote explosives. Melee still allowed (maybe no effect on troops)
Special ability Idea's
1. Could cast a protective shield or wall for short period of time. EXAMPLE: reviving a person in middle of field under sniper fire safely.
2. Could Carry two items at once. EXAMPLE: needle in left hand, repair tool in right hand.
3. Destroy enemy equipment with one melee punch.
Reasoning behind the tank and medic
Assault drop ships / Proto-grenades / Blaster tanks - Are all to strong against current logistics that comes under there fire. and a heavy player try to keep his logistics alive really has no way of protecting against these attacks. I'm thinking of a heavy that can save a logistic after there death. A guardian angel.
Skills required
Any logistics lvl 3 and Amarr heavy lvl 3 (till race heavies)
CPU/POWER GRID
Make it impossible to fit two dual wielding proto repair tools with out greatly sacrificing tank.

In Dust, a lack of weaponry is silly. The opposing team needs to take out the 'medic'. The Geneva Conventions doesn't exist in game.
And you can run suits with 5 plates on it with up to 960+ Armor as a Gallente Proto Logi.
That 'Oh crud, everyone just went down and it's just me now!' moment and you want me to have no weapon and die with the squad instead of shooting the red-berry and then picking everyone up? That's not sense. That's silly.
There are times when you use a rep-tool or injector ... there are times when tossing a grenade around a corner and using suppressing fire is needed before I can use the repper or the injector and make sure my teammate is up for more than 2 seconds. |

It's a useless class to be honest but if i wanted to troll this suit would be a fun way to do it but to make it a legitimate decent medic suit it should carry secondary weapons only

Eh, why not? I wouldn't play it, but if someone else wants to, I support that. Role-based combat all the way. |

and since its extremely gimped
it should have a native +5/8/11 armor rep for std/adv/pro (not due to a skill just from the suit its self)
tac-net, all my scans show up for my team
class bonus +15% efficiency and range of all equipment per lvl (so faster reps, wider nano hives, faster spawns, long range rep tool scanner lasts longer has better precision and scans wider and farther)
and its not a slow suit, at least faster than assault suit
racial idk

Roles should come before frame sizes in my opinion.
