DUST Search - Logis and KD/R

Been playing the game regularly since December and I currently run 2 types of suits...

-Minmitar logi (80% of the time)
-Caldari Scout (20% of time)

When I run the logi, I usually have either my six kin or core focused repper out and I use it to support my team-mates while they do the killing. I make reviving downed team-mates my priority and I'll only break out my assault rifle when I'm playing alone or when I'm forced to due to an enemy flanking our position and engaging me directly. The end result of this style of play is that I mostly end up having a KDR under 1 and I score a shitload of WPs.

When I run the Scout, I basically just focus on killing enemies and end up having a KDR above 1 and I score an average amount of WPs.

So my lifetime KDR is under 1, yet I feel like I contribute more to the team as a logi then as a scout.

Question to the community... How do you perceive logis who focus on supporting their team (especially heavies) as opposed to being slayer logis? Should logis strive to be slayers? Kill, kill, kill, then rep whoever is left standing after the fire fight. Or should logis keep the repper on the big boys and make sure they can mow down the opposition without worrying about their armor?

My opinion is, Logis were meant to be the equipment carriers/reppers. So dont worry about the KDR if thats your suit. If you are racking up points repping and such, you are contributing to your team/squad in a big way. Of course...you can use the logi suit however you want and turn it into a slayer suit I guess. Id say its really up to the player wearing the suit in which direction they wanna take it. Are you drinking my saki kimosabe?! http://youtu.be/Nv7Ts4v5_Bs
