Injecting people with my nanites always sounded dirty anyways.
So my Medic ALT is no longer a Logi Bro. It was probably long overdue. Between the changes in social revive/KDR dynamics and the generalized cruelties of Dust 514 (Uprising) a change has been long overdue. I don't think Time-To-Kill being lengthened or a Mass Driver buff can tip the scales.
Yet thanks to a Skill Point grant from Uncle CCP my soldier has received important job training so that he can remain competitive in the modern battlefield.
Meet my Winmatar Combat Engineer. His Adv or Proto Mass Driver can now clear potential Danger Zones of Remote Explosives freeing up Fluxes and the Nanohives needed to resupply them. The Adv Q-Scanner let's him keep tabs on most enemy movements or to check for those tricky invisible HAVs hiding behind the fortification walls. Lastly depending on squad needs either Hives, Uplinks, or my new love Remote Explosives.
If I get ballsy enough the proto might get pulled out with its four equipment slots.
If I get angry enough there's a Mad Bomber fit ready for the scandalously low price of 24k ISK.
Uprising 1.8 is looking up for my Combat Engineer ALT. Should CCP apply half as much effort again the vehicles issue could be solved within months.
Here, have some candy and a Like. :-)

IMO its always been better for a scout or assault to run needles and leave the reps for their passives or a logi
in 1.8 I will be running a combo of needle an reps on a scout
the advantage is my speed, and passive scan range assuring there is no predators around
plus i'm from MAG where you made sure you can revive at 100% in a light frame

Really I don't leave home in my Commando suit without atleast a KIN-12 or soon to be Wyrkomi injector.
Nothing like winning a fire fight, watching one ignorant SOB rush me thinking I am alone because he downed my buddies......only for me to revive them with almost all of their armour.

TL;DR
Yeah, running logi as in medic or corpsman if you will is a lost endeavor unless you are a heavy's prison *****.
Bur, running links, scans and RE or hives on a logi is golden. Yes, carry a mass driver and push the enemy team back is best logi role.

UPDATE
My Eve alter ego is in tight with Lozdod Pousel a high ranking Security Agent for The Sisters Of Eve stationed in the Osmon star system. We are close to negotiating a trade-in program for Nanite Injectors. The ISK value is still being worked on since there is no open market to compare. She also left open an option for special weapons that should interest every dirt-side Merc.
The trick of course will be in bypassing the current sanctions between us and the Capsuleers. We might be able to smuggle the weapons through orbiting POCOs (Planetary Owned Customs Office). Those tend to have more lax security than the Empire ones.

Post Uprising 1.8 having the Minmatar Logi skill at 5 is incredible. The 25% savings on equipment has opened so many options that I'm having to force myself to keep under twelve saved fits. Both my Sentinel and Minja only have four fits each.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
The trade-in deal is off! That skanky ***** is seeing some guy from CFC who downed the most Titians during that star system being flipped awhile back.
I even went to the dump and dug up the other needles. A 'Sever' fit is ready. Currently looking for a griefing buddy in order to exploit and damage the player base.
Bob's dirty needles, coming to a battle near you.

Edit: There is a rep tool on there. That much should be obvious.
I saw a guy today that was cloaking with injectors and would decloak inject on the run and cloak again. It was surprising effective.

I just finally went to level 5 hives to get those sweet triages, so I can throw them on the ground, die, come back as a heavy and bask in the armor repping goodness.
Don't remember when I revived someone last though.
Now I also play BF4 and revive all the time, and they even nerfed WP per revive. So what is underlying fault of needles in your opinion?

Quite simple. People prefer nanohives over injectors because they are selfish and want to have the ability to carry more ammo. in my opinion there should be a ammo expansion equipment so that those people dont need to carry nanohives. Something like +100% max ammo carried on proto lvl. Ya know something like the vehicles have to increase their ammo bay.

Funny, iv seen maybe a handful of people run hives in 1.8. Wish more people would run them.

1) never happened to me, but ok 2)not really bad for me as a needler, who doesnt revive under fire and rep tools immediately 3) circle revives without shifting to needle 4) not really a huge problem, maybe once in a while its not where it seems 5) a bug, no idea how frequent 6) a bug, no idea how frequent
so basically, bugs are the reason, not really gameplay issues
The most annoying thing as a logi is to get killed while reviving and see your patient killed again, much sad, I assure you that wasn't the plan...
And on the receiving end, deny revive would probably be an improvement.

All my points but the blueberry one are bugs. I understand this. I don't understand why all of them arnt on the known issues list since they have all for the most part been around for over 4 months time.

Everyone would love the needle if it actually saved your life. If you get needled or not it still counts as a death on your KD; and NOTHING is worse than getting needled and be shot back down.. I absolutely flip my **** when a squad mate needles me.(If I die again or not) All the people I play with know better. I don't give a **** if I lose a proto suit. I'm a kd *****.

The problem is that unlike in BF they still count as a death on your record.
So it's better to regroup somewhere safe where you won't get farmed.
Anyone who tells you otherwise is a liar.
