DUST Search - Logis Should Be Able To Rep Through Damage

Only annoying thing about rep tools is when there's a full bunch of people with them- especially when they're holed up in an objective.

Don't get me wrong, I understand that it's teamwork, we should definitely preserve this playstyle, but the repping logi needs a tweak in my opinion. I know the repper can get flanked, get hit by splash damage and always gets prioritized by enemies... but, how are people supposed to do that in those super tight areas where you can't flank?

Think about how powerful two logistics players are in that same area with 8 heavies- repairing them as they switch out. Why use anything else? It ultimately amounts to spam of the two least skill intensive playstyles... Heavies with HMG's and logistics hiding behind a corner holding R1...

Repair tools are part of why dealing with heavies is so annoying. I've personally started using a forge gun to breach through all the heavies lately- think about that for a second... I've given up on using my combat rifle or even my own HMG and I'm using a FORGE GUN

I think there could be a few more tweaks to them personally...

Capacitors...

Overheat...

Finite repair nanites...

Logistics players constantly say that they give up their ability to fire while using the repair tool to make another more powerful, yet they can instantly switch to their own weapon to defend themselves? Well, just add a "switching from equipment to weapon delay" similiar to what they did with the cloaking device.

Hell, even a PG/CPU tweak could probably give the logistics players less room for fitting so they become a bit easier to take out.

Logi suits are equal to wet tissue paper now, we die if you give us a dirty look.People like you forget about the logi who saved your precious KDR by repping you, or dropping good uplinks so you could get back in the fight without having to run the map, dropping good hives that don't pop after 3 bullets were taken, and if your pride would allow being picked up with a good pen instead of those dirty needles somany run around with.You seem to have no concept of what it means to be part of a team and your post reflexes your narrow view. This is not COD, and it appears that you are upset that everyone cannot be killed with one shot.
