You are correct. There is more to being a good logi than repping a heavy.
1) I use 3 complex precision enhancers on my Amarr-Logi so I know where I should go and where I shouldn't. If a heavy is running into a group of 3 or 4 reds then, even the best heavies, will likely fall. You being there won't change that.
2) I like to stay where people are "protecting" an uplink or objective and support them there. Protecting a strong uplink or an important objective (i.e. if you have 2 and the enemy has 2 and you are in the lead against their MCC) is way more valuable then following a heavy so he doesn't die fast.
3) Ammo shouldn't be spammed. How many times has someone just tossed stupid nades and used up all of the ammo. You should drop one ammo at a time as your squad mates or team mates need it. Besides, as you learn to survive better you might see yourself not dying and needing the ammo yourself.
4) A good heavy peaks around the corner and then moves back before rushing in. Don't follow reckless heavies b/c you will pay the price
5) Save uplinks. How many times are you near a null and a whole lot of fluxes show up? Often enough that you wish you kept an uplink in your clip right? Save at least 1 whenever you can
6) I don't care what anyone says, the Rep Tool that reps two people is far superior to the core focus when running solo. If you are squaded I would STILL run the double shot rep tool.
7) Don't weigh yourself down with speed penalties (i.e. armor plates) if it can be helped. Sometimes, you need to escape and get an uplink in a strong spot to provide re-enforcements
8) All logi's should have a complex dampener to keep mediums and heavies from seeing them on their tacnet. I've experimented with 2 at the same time and didn't see much of a different. While you are repping that heavy, it's kind of nice they think that you aren't there don't you think?
9) I, very rarely now, do a LAV logi thing. I'll roll around in my LAV in an open field, run over someone that just killed someone else, nanite the other person, rep them, and move on. Right now I am on this Forge Gun kick but I am craving going back to this.
Hope some of this helps.
