I'm not going to write an essay here so just let me know why you agree or disagree.
IMO, and as being proto in all 4 logis, the problem(s) with Cal Logi, in order to do it right you must dedicate one of your lows to a cpu upgrade, leaving you only room for 2 complex shields and a repper or an enhanced
In addition with 5 highs, you will find an extremely hard time fitting anything over 3 complex shields and two precision enhancers. Not necessarily a bad thing, but your total ehp still peaks about 7 or 8.
All this is considering you are running your cal logi in order to reap the rewards from being level 5, so you should be running proto hives and a proto repper.
Cal logi is no doubt the slowest of all logis. Amarr might be slow, but the monster stanima makes up for it. Gal might be slow, but that's because all lows are filled with tank, you can stop that from happening from having the choice of using dampeners, reppers, etc, cal logi does not have that choice because one spot is dedicated to cpu upgrade.
Cal racial is extremely situational and only lasts for a few seconds, unlike all the other logis who reap the benefits all throughout the match. Once you drop a hive and people start spamming grenades because "oh lol" your hive pops in seconds. Also hives are popped by enemy numerous ways and through walls.
My suggestions:
If CCP does not want to give more cpu to Cal logi, give it an extra equipment slot. Seems contradictory but might as well force us to use a proto cpu upgrade then.
Buff the racial to strengthen the durability of hives, and the range they can affect the group. Would also do something to stop folk from being able to find your hive and pop it instantly by "oh lol grenade u".

But doesn't the Cal get 4 lows?
5 highs, 4 lows, 3 equipment @ proto level. Good luck having all 4 lows dedicated to HP though.
And i agree equipment is ultra useful, but it is so situational for the reasons i tried to explain above, while all the other logis benefit the group throughout the match. |

Amarr stanima is beast, and being able to sprint for longer periods of time, even if slow, is invaluable.
Also, gal doesn't need all that tank, because their best defense is scanning, and able to prep for the enemies and know where they are at all times.
Min with 4 equipment slots can equipt a proto scanner and benift sorta the same. Cal has none of these luxuries. |

the uplink used by a level 5 amarr logi, unlike the hive, cannot be destroyed by bluedots, only after 30 of them have cycled out. With hives a bluedot just walks up to it and throws four grenades in vague direction of enemy then pop, later. the uplink also does not have to be at the location of the fight, which also increase it's longevity, which also increases the rewards and total squad wp for orbitals.
because this game is 80% defense against scouts and the rest knowing where the enemy is the scanner even with a cool down, and the ability to do it throughout the match, and the ability it allows your group to transverse the map, is 100% necessary and useful at all times, any gal logi not running one OR TWO scanners is straight up on some weak sht. |
