I think too many logis have their rep tool out when they should have their weapon out. It's a balance, but sometimes that heavy would be better suited with some additional DPS rather than reps.

My min logi nets me crazy amounts of wp and isk. It fits my playstyle perfectly. However, its not a great solo suit. You need a team to be successful.

Brick tank it, carry all Hives, your weapon an ADV CR. Make sure you have Prof. 5, and use at least one Damage Mod. You'll tear people up!

i agree the min logi is awesome, I disagree its a poor solo suit...

Up until two days ago the Mass Driver was the only weapon the Combat Engineer. With nearly perfect fitting skills it still doesn't work on the 'Sever' Logi frame so I finally caved and trained SMG. However an Assault Mass Driver is on all the Advanced M/1-Series. If you can roll with a tight squad/team it is a fun weapon. Solo play is pretty reckless or an adventure if you want to put a positive spin on it.

Going Combat Rifle was smart. Especially if you are serious about clearing an area before needling someone.

There is an A.R.C Thread all Commandos should check out.

I wrote some words on the Minmatar logi for our corp wiki :

The good ones are invaluable and I would have their babies

The bad ones are useful to draw fire away from me and thats about it

I'm sad to say I used to find them far more useful; however the logi role has devolved into either spam equipment everywhere before switching to a slayer fit or attach yourself to a heavy and hold onto the leash for dear life.

I'm an Assaul player, GalAss to be exact, and I'm at the bottom of the list of priorities when it comes to supporting. I have to build my suits to be self sufficient, High amoro repair rate, carry my own nanohives, put on a dampener or scanner when needed, etc. the only time a logi notices me is when the heavy is dead or we don't have one, scouts don't need ammo, and they dont have acces to a supply depo. They go "Oh you have armor! Stand infront of me and soak up bullets while I rep you."

Remember Assault players Logis, we need support too. :(

Maybe if they actually repped me rather than leaving me with half health after reviving me I would respect them more.

I try to rep everyone, even gal scouts. I am more likely to rep an amar heavy first, but hey, they probably have way more armor than you do and can soak damage if we get ambushed while I am repping other people.

I'm fine with that; my problem is the Logis who sit there with their rep tool on a heavy despite the fact that they aren't even in combat, all the while I have a clip and a half of ammo left with a fourth my full armor.

Short version: do people like having them and are they helpful?

So i've been playing for about 2 months, loving Dust. I've branched into Minmatar commando because it suits me well and I have been loving the Mass Driver/Combat Rifle combo. During the accelerated SP week, i branched out and tried Logi for the first time. I have the Templar Logi BPO, so had a 2/2/2 suit to play with, sporting militia injector and repair.

I had a blast. Heck, i had one match where I had 27k SP earned because of a really tough, long corridor fight. I had some 7k Hp repaired.

Still, we'be all bewn rezzed by that guy only to be shot before we even stand. Hell, I'm made that logi mistake too.

So is it worth it to skill into logi? Do people like having logi in the squad or is it a pain? Is minmatar logi a good choice?
