And really that slot doesn't count. It's a CPU mod if you want a remotely decent fit. |

What if you had a light weapon slot on a logi, but the suits were bonused fairly heavily with sidearm bonuses?
I hate the idea of sidearm only, but I think the slayer logi thing is such a sticking point for many. The logi suits aren't being used as slayer platforms anymore by competitive players but maybe something like this opens up the possibility of rational talk about logi suits by the masses. |

The logi suits aren't being used as slayer platforms anymore by competitive players but maybe something like this opens up the possibility of rational talk about logi suits by the masses. I think the sidearm bonus is more effective when you are only carrying one weapon since the LW will remain the primary weapon option for the logi (really any suit that carries LW / S). You would have to have a really serious bonus to the sidearm that essentially upgraded the sidearm to being at least as effective as the carried LW. More grenades carried (no more than 2x extra) and and mild fitting bonus to weapons seem like it might be a little better option.
Being able to carry a sidearm where the proto fits like an ADV and gets a bigger clip or something. Giving you the further ability to fit a better tank while carrying proto equipment.
I'm not saying I like it, but gimping the module slots on the logi suit just seems like a terrible idea (not saying that's what you are proposing, just looking at other proposals). It's too damn expensive to carry 4 pieces of proto equipment on a glass cannon.

I don't think it will buy as much CPU / PG as you think....you would have to at least be able to trade the appropriate amount of CPU/PG to fit the requisite tier tank mod (buffer or regen).
You are right, it wouldn't. Like I said, I don't particularly like the idea myself. More of a possible compromise for all the folks with hard-ons for logis.

It may have been discussed already, but I'm just now getting the stomach to even talk about logi stuff after all the QQ for the last 6 months.
To me the spam issue would have been solved by removing the 480 variants of each type of equipment. Then provide a skill bonus as you level up the skill to V. Further bonused by the logi suits themselves.
This way the max deployed comes into play, instead of just having suits set up with all the different variants allowing for 20+ nanohives or uplinks that some people throw out.
Sorry to derail what looks like some solid suit bonus/slot discussion, just thought it should be mentioned as the spam issue is something people hate on logis the most for. |
