Hey guys. Thought I'd post up this thread for any new Logi's out there who need help. Who better to help you out than me?
I'll keep this thread up for those seeking knowledge into the ways of true logistics (it's more than just a rep tool). Being on the highly competitive end of Planetary Conquest since it's inception into the game, I've gotten to lead and fight the best players in Molden Heath. I see a lot of players asking for help in logistics, and lead astray by players with limited knowledge and skill into this vastly diverse occupation in the game. You want to know how to give your slayers the sharpest edge on the field and still be at the top of the list? Come to me.

Here we go. I placed the specs for you with range and dropsuit reps with the min logi bonus.
Minmatar Logistic Dropsuit w/ Racial Statistical Bonus:
Core Rep tool: Range: 22.5m Repair rate on Dropsuit: 87.5HP/s
Lai Dai Rep Tool: Range: 33.75m Repair Rate on Dropsuit: 87.5HP/s
Six Kin Rep Tool: Range:22.5m Repair Rate on Dropsuit: 110 HP/s
Rep Boundless Rep Tool: Range: 30m Repair Rate on Dropsuit: 112.5 HP/s
Core Focus Rep Tool: Range: 11.25m Repair Rate on Dropsuit: 156.25HP/s
With these bonuses in mind, your low slot choices should dictate around the advantage of the rep tool. Build around that starting as your foundation for the suit. Speed is always a plus. With 4 highs and 4 lows, you'll get a balanced outlook on the game. I personally like to go with moderate speed with enough tank to stay in the fight with my heavies. At the same time I still want to be mobile should I need to retreat and or engage in combat. One complex kin-Cat with two complex reactive plates, finished with a simple basic plate, will give you enough armor and reps (assuming you've maxed out all CPU and PG space as well) to fit your suit with over 700+HP combined with shield selection, as well as all proto equipment.
Hope this helps you out bud o/

When it comes to being a Logi, by far you are the easiest target to hit. Recently with the min assault stepping in place for many former scouts, high DPS I find seems to put them down fairly easy. In a tight CQC, I use shotguns and maybe a mass driver for the ones performing hit and run tactic. It's hard for them to escape the splash. Even a militia or basic is good enough. The best scouts in this game tend to use speed. Combine that with an SSD hardrive, and your looking at a demon. Stay alert and crack them with 2 concise chest shots and they're done. Once they start spamming RE's, then you've got them beat. The mass driver is the winner in this situation. Just sweep everything out the way.

Being the best Logi in the game is based on factors that separate you from the pack. Yet, for almost all, its personal opinion and favoritism of those who really are just sub-par. Most Logi's have a horrid overall K/D ratio. Since 1.8 in Uprising, my K/D dropped from a 4.0 to right below 3.0 currently due to game changes. I found that in doing PC of course, you'll find the most interesting and innovative tacticians. However The only "Logi" I found that was on par with myself in terms of generally gearing out 3500+ WP a PC match on a consistent basis while leading an entire 16 man unit during a highly contested fight, has only been myself and Reiselia from 0.H. back in her corps glory days. I have yet to meet another Logi other than her could multi-task a battle logistically the way I have. Back when I used to lead Gunfall Mobilization against Quickgloves in STB and DDB (1.4-1.6 UR), under my command we locked out QG and Jk40's team for about 4 weeks from district 2 on Skarkon 2. OSG had just lost their remaining districts, and my guys were the only ones left with any territory. We won about 75% of our engagements and prevented our district being flipped, until they had to come to me for negotiations. Upon which in the later days the district would be lost due to CCP's game defaults by DC'ing everyone but 6 players from the match on GF side. In FA's defining moment in single handedly taking on what would be later known as DNS, Zatara picked me up into the corp right at the start of the war. At first I had to earn my way into the squads of my choice. Once I got in we were able to form, in my opinion, the greatest PC team to ever play Dust. In one month alone, every district that was attacked by DNS was successfully defended... for over a month (we owned 16 at the time). Forcing Kain and Cubs to come to Zatara and broker a deal. Which we took with deception in mind. I feel I was lucky enough to play alongside the best tactical minds who gave me the opportunity to flourish as a logi. Skeletor Voltron and Himiko Kuronaga by far were the best heavies. When you paired them up, it was game over. We all worked together and because of that during DNS wars before and after we joined. 99% of the time I was right at No. 1 on the list with 4000+ WP by the EoM. (**** these guys even trusted me to lead them into many battles which was like amaze-balls). Public matches are... cute. However, the only logi's I would say are worth even the time are PC logi's. Even then most and almost all cannot FC and Logi at the same time effectively. I find that always my biggest challenge when I PC, more-so than the enemy on the other side no matter who they are. If your team is competent enough to get the job done, then you might be able to become the best logi.

Solid State Hard-drives give players a faster play rate due to the immense complexity of what the game delivers in terms of customization. Every match you play includes the market, all of your drop suits, chat channels, etc. Now multiply that by 32 mercs and here comes the lag. PS3 is no more different than a computer. So if you have a faster processor to deal with the game, your in an overall better "state" lol.

Not in my experience, having played extensively with and without an SSD and knowing a bit how computers like the PS3 work.
Said a bit differently, while playing the game (i.e. not looking at your suits), there is virtually no difference in game performance (i.e. frame rate) between the two.
Said even more directly: The game isn't reading disk much during a battle, and thus any performance gains are minimal.
Loading the game? Sure! Moving between your quarters and the warbarge? Absolutely. In the battle? Not as best as I can tell.

Example. Outer Heaven to my knowledge has the most players with SSD. In PC they will always get to the points before anyone else UNLESS we send players with the same advantages to counter them.

I'm open to the idea, but I've simply not seen it nor heard of it in my discussions with other players...which is why I reacted the way that I did upon reading your note.
Tested this on multiple occassions. You get a 1.5 second at best lead. There is a hold function on spawn in that got rid of the "squad leader spawning 5 secs earlier" problem too. |

Why the eye roll? Not completely accurate. The ps3 only has 256mb of ram and 256mb of vram, developers tend to use a larg pagefile on the hard drive to compensate, and this gives the SSD a noticeable advantage in high lag situations. Changing only the hard drive, performance changes almost night and day between the two on the underground depot map. |

Good question. Since bandwidth was implemented, the max uplinks I've found to be able to drop are up to 10 consistently without fail. Unfortunatley in PC, out of the 10 uplinks I drop only 3-4 will survive the initial first wave of attacks once a perimeter is established. I have 9 individual drop suits geared for PC in a domino effect of logi work so to speak. the first two are geared towards uplinks primarily. Usually if my team can gain control of the match early, I won't have to go outside my two initial suits. A good strategy to develop would be to base each suit around a certain scenario that you happen to find yourself in. Pending on the fight, I even created a suit in which I equip two rep tools. The options are endless.

Do you prefer to stagger your uplinks with multiple suits or equip multiple links to 1 suit then switch out? I know that both methods are useful for link coverage but which do you think is a better tendency to develop. Good question. Since bandwidth was implemented, the max uplinks I've found to be able to drop are up to 10 consistently without fail. Unfortunatley in PC, out of the 10 uplinks I drop only 3-4 will survive the initial first wave of attacks once a perimeter is established. I have 9 individual drop suits geared for PC in a domino effect of logi work so to speak. the first two are geared towards uplinks primarily. Usually if my team can gain control of the match early, I won't have to go outside my two initial suits. A good strategy to develop would be to base each suit around a certain scenario that you happen to find yourself in. Pending on the fight, I even created a suit in which I equip two rep tools. The options are endless.
To back this up:
Remember, Links aren't solely the Logi's job. This job MUST be shared by the whole team. Yes, Logi's should have a link spam suit for when you NEED links, and you probably need one on at least every suit. HOWEVER, as he said, most get destroyed fairly quickly. It's common PC etiquette to kill links the moment you can safely do so (And some people have jobs that are solely link removal). In FA, we have the scouts helping with uplink control, both with removal and placement.
What does this mean? Just like Silly said, Links should only be dominant on fits in the early stages of the match. After the initial dominance is established, its normally very easy for two logis and two scouts to keep a good 8-10 links on the field, scattered about. After the team has established a perimeter, the suits would focus more on sustaining troops against assault (With reps, needles, etc).
Now, maintaining the Link net is a topic in and of itself, but I think that should answer most of your questions.

Better Gun =/= Better GunGame
Get that through your head right now. Gun Game has nothing to do with the tier of gun you are using.
Universal Gun Game Tips:
Know when to hipfire, and when to ADS
Know your recoil, and how to burst to reduce it.
PREFIRE CORNERS
Take Corners wide if you don't know whats around it.
Know how to strafe and use cover. As a Logi, your goal is primarily to avoid death until your HMG death machine comes to get your attacker. Knowing how to strafe and use cover WHILE MAINTAINING LOCK is huge for a Logi. If you AREN'T repping, you need to quickly down your target, or at least drag him to an area with friendlies. Preferbly the second. People love logis that don't die the moment they are primaried. You gotta know how to survive, and take people down.
You'll know gun game when you see it. You will shoot at someone, watch most of your shots miss, and quickly be downed. Or its that guy who you get the jump on, and can't seem to finish off. Then he kills you in reload. Those are people with gun game. Its a combination of shooting ability, situational awareness, and strafing/using cover.
Hope that helps.

The two main suits you should have as a logi are the Minmatar and Amarr; everything else is preference. The Gallente Logi is making a bit of a comeback in terms of E-War against Scan-dampened enemies, and general all purpose sit rep of the enemy location. However, still I find the suit struggling to compete with the amarr and min drop suit. Outside the suit as a whole, it wouldn't be a bad move to spec into the Gal logi. There is a use for it competitively. Master your hacking skills. Cloaks are worthless for a logi suit, leave that to the scouts.
Hope I answered some questions

Situational. Awareness. Knowing who and what is around you is one of the most important factors in being the best logi. Know your limits and never try to be a hero. Only shoot to stave off attackers, or to get a confirmed kill. Never take on what you cannot ultimately defeat. It WILL result in your death and possibly the death of teammates around you.
Also try to stay away from the killzone, keep a distance between you and your teammates as they confront the enemy. Strategic placement of deployable equipment, such as nanohive, uplinks, and Remote Explosives/Proximity Explosives can also make a world of a difference. Whipping out your rep tool acts as a sort of scanner for yourself, as you can read the vital signs of friendlies in about a 20-25 meter radius. Keeping an eye on team member's status is very helpful, as it tells you who needs repping, and if you're attentive, you'll get an idea of what is going on on their side. This is done by seeing how fast their health is going down.
Taking account your own expenses is also paramount to your success. Never run what you can't afford to lose, UNLESS the match seems to be in your favor.
These are simply just a few simple steps on the path of becoming a great, if not the BEST logi out there.
Good luck, and happy hunting. =ƒÿè7

I do prefer squad lead due to the extra points and access to orbitals. Command points are always a plus. Furthermore it does help in terms of spotting those that can't be seen as an immediate threat, though I would prefer the feature of secondary command orders for other players in squad in case I can't see what my teammates can.
Pilot logistics are vital in my opinion. They have the ability to place links in high places immediately, which is why the amarr logistics would make a perfect pairing in ADS. The amount of time to call an ADS, get inside, and fly to a said objective from the ground would take over a minute. As crazy as it sounds, one minute is all it takes to be on the losing side of the battle. Having your Ace already airborne from the start of the match will give you access to strategic advantages later during the match.

Said a bit differently, while playing the game (i.e. not looking at your suits), there is virtually no difference in game performance (i.e. frame rate) between the two.
Said even more directly: The game isn't reading disk much during a battle, and thus any performance gains are minimal.
Loading the game? Sure! Moving between your quarters and the warbarge? Absolutely. In the battle? Not as best as I can tell -- outside of the time of initial rendering of certain sockets which doesn't affect game play one iota.
If you have direct experience to the contrary, I'm all ears!
Why the eye roll? Not completely accurate. The ps3 only has 256mb of ram and 256mb of vram, developers tend to use a larg pagefile on the hard drive to compensate, and this gives the SSD a noticeable advantage in high lag situations. Changing only the hard drive, performance changes almost night and day between the two on the underground depot map.
Lag is network based, not PS3 performance based. So perhaps you meant to say "slow framerate situations" instead of "high lag"?
And FWIW, the performance on the Gallente Lag Facility didn't change much for me outside the initial loading of the socket -- performance is still spotty for both SSD and non-SSD players as best as I can tell. What's worse is that it often changes if you go outside and then back into the city for some odd reason...for both SSD and non-SSD PS3s.
What led you to say the difference in performance is "almost night and day", because I didn't notice anything outside of initial rendering/loading of the socket. Once it's loaded it seems to preform the same regardless of if you have a SSD or not...but perhaps I need to play around some more as it's been a while since I popped the HD back into my PS3.

Carry a proto needle and rep hives. Set up shop on a point with a heavy and defend. Everyone says the amarr is the most assault-like, but I would have to go with the caldari. The thing that hurts the cal is the nerf they recieved many moons ago. They are not the slayers they once were.

i'm lazy so i'll paste what i was saying recently about cal logi: "cal logi is underpowered for many reasons, and i'm sure if ccp showed us the numbers on how many people use them they would be shockingly low.
in order to run cal logi at it's max potential you have to do a couple things. 1 is run it proto in order to get the 3 equipment slots. 2 run a cpu upgrade, which makes the 5 highs and 4 lows worthless because ultimately you have the same eHP as everyone else, but with less regen, damp, stam, speed.
because of the cal logi's bonus (which is an awesome one) 2 of your equipment slots will be dedicated to various hives, making you lose out on a needle, uplink, or scanner as the other one should be a repper. problem is there is very few maps/situations where hives will stay out long enough to benefit the team. i would say the best use for a cal logi is just run proto hives in all slots, drop them then switch out to another 32 BW logi/cal logi with repper, needle, scanner or hive
because of how easy it is to destroy hives and the other problems stated above, cal logi is the absolute worse logi for PC." |
