I'm not a dedicated logi at all, but I spend more money on my logistics suit than any other, and always have. I use proto rep tools, injectors (and sometimes hives, but usually an advanced uplink instead).
Bearing that in mind, think about how often a logi does compared to a sentinel - they're squishy, yellow and no matter how many times I try, my rep tool does no damage to the enemy! In the time it takes me to switch to my weapon (which isn't long, considering I use a mouse and just have to scroll), I'm often already dead.
More WP means more ISK. Before I got my blueprint suit, and Assault Rifle, breaking even wasn't always as easy as it was for my friends who were playing as assaults, sentinels and scouts.
I've been in matches where I was the only one to break 1k WP before, because we were redlined. I've also been in matches where I didn't break 1k or come in the top 5 because my side was doing the redlining and the other team were hiding from us like cowards. The scouts got most WP that match cause they could run in and out the redline fast enough to catch people before the timer ran out.
Logis risk a lot when they are following fat guys around, and more risk = more reward.
So no, they're not OP any more than a heavy is OP at their role, or a scout is at theirs. |

When I'm running as a heavy, I always kill the logi first. And if there is more than 1 enemy, one will always kill the logi. |

You say your getting an avg of 2.5k - 3k wp with only reps and and a ***** M-log build. That is a load of the lowest quality bullshit I have ever heard. its not hard to get - dren logi + advanced equipment. you may die a little more than an advanced logi.....but not too much more. Prove it. what you want a SS? seems daft that you can't take anyone on their word when there are so many spawn in with dren logi fit 3x's advanced uplinks set uplinks in the appropriate area's where people will use. find supply depo or wait until death (i.e. go slay for a bit) change suit into dren logi advanced hive advanced needle advanced reptool support the team and stay with large group - slay when needed when you die check if uplink needed. choose logi suit with least uplinks online or th least relivant placings adv up adv needle adv reptool stay with team and stay in large group - slay when needed ect ect.
You don't even need to put out all those uplinks to get 3k WP. I've done it with 2 uplinks, adv rep tool and needle in the past. I've seen people get 2.5k with a basic needle, adv rep tool and basic uplink since the changes to revive points came out. Both of these on BPO suits with a BPO weapon.
It really depends on the map though.

Out of interest, how much do you think would be the right amount of ISK? You can be top 8 and get under 100k in some matches (with 500WP+), or you might be 15th and get over 100k with 300WP. I always assumed this was because the person at the top was getting a massive share of the ISK compared to those below them in some matches (this person usually being a logi with 1k more points than the person in second) |
