INTRODUCTION
While CCP is deciding to give all logistics the same amount of fitting slots i recognize that the caldari logistics is missing something. A simple bonus to nanohives does not create a good enough incentive to use caldari logistics. Shields being what they are and nanohive being on the bottom of the food chain in terms of importance since they already do their job efficiently in any suit and, nerfing them more to make the caldari logistics relevant would break nanohives in general, it is imperative to give the caldari suit an equipment bonus that would entice normal users to want to specialize in it.
IDEA
The current caldari bonus to nanohive and the "nanites" inside them I would suggest a bonus to nanite injecters. A 20% bonus to nanite injector effectiveness would be very beneficial to the suit itself
REASONING
While a 20% increase per level sounds like a lot, It would help bump their effectiveness in fast paced combat due to the nature of being able to revive fallen allies with a greater HP pool, circumventing the necessity of reps and the immobility of nanohives.
- How would this work?
The answer to this question is simple, with more levels into caldari logistics, apart from regenerating armor with the injector after you reach 100% armor repair, the injector will also revive someone with the percentage of shields left over. To explain this further lets use the prototype injector as an example:
Example:
Prototype nanite injector: 80% armor bonus
Caldari logistics level 5: 200% efficiency
Total %: 80% * 2 = 160%
This would equate to 100% armor and 60% shields.
HOW WOULD THIS IMPACT GAMEPLAY
This is simple. Injectors are currently used in a trollish manner and their relevance to hardcore gamepley like PC is minimal. Being used in conjunction to a fully specced caldari logistic will make the use of these very powerful, specially at protoype and factional level; making these two variants a very very powerfull and making the basic and advanced noteworthy when used by specialized caldari logistics.
DISCLAIMER
This is just an idea of how to make caldari logistics more relevant. The caldari logi has fallen out of relevance and I fear that even with the changes CCP is thinking about giving logistics it wont be enough to make this suit as useful as the minmatar and the amarr with gallente being another exception. Comment if you like it or explain why you don't like it.

I beleive that equipment spamming is detrimental to the game in general. RR triage camping goes away with 1 flux/mass driver round/plasma cannon round/grenade. Not really an effective tactic against seasoned players

Why 24% per level?; well if I have an 80% needle, to revive somebody fully (shields and armour) I would need 120% so 5 x 24=120.
Yes but you are not taking into consideration that there exists a caldari factional needle that already hass 100% armor revive.
So as explained 20% bonus at level 5 means you are getting 100% efficiency of every needle. Basic will be 60% revive, adv will be 100% armor, proto would be 100% armor and 60% shields and caldari factional needle woulde be 100% armor and 100% shields. Factional needle should stay best of the best simply because it's specialized.

There's nothing wrong with shields if you compare them to armor suits with the same speed

This thread is about making caldari logistics more advantageous to have. Shields are for another topic.

That seems simple.
The idea is so the caldari logistics can also give benefit to shield based suits. As many would know, reviving a merc that is shield based, even using the best of the injectors, still results in their immediate death. By making it high enough for the repair when revived "bleed into shields" we make it viable to effectively revive not only armor based suits but also shield based suits.
