So ive decided to spec into minlogi to see how OP a minlogi is for a armor tanked squad. And holy cow i was right, its the #1 armor tanker crutch in the entire game. Now i undeerstand why people where against my idea for a shield recharger tool. They just want to have a armor exlcusive crutch, they do not want to compete with faster moving shield squads, they do not want competition on their logistic turf. Seriously this is just batshit insane, i can rep a dude accross the street with a lai dai flux reptool and minlogi 5.
I demand that the cal. logi gets reworked to be a shield logi and introduce a shield recharger tool.

I love my Cal Logi but it would be nice to get some Nanohives that repair shields or something. I guess the drawback to this idea would be a player throwing out a Hive that reps armor and then throwing out a Hive that reps shields, could be a little OP I guess lol. I do love my Cal Logi tho

I was thinking an Amarr or Gallente Heavy standing on em, but your right there would be a counter to said move.

For every Logi repping a Sentinel, there's one less slayer or Scout on the field. Logi + Sentinel is better than just Sentinel + Sentinel. That's called teamwork though. It's very easy to kill a Logi, and a Logi can do little without the help of it's team.
Logi is not OP. It's called teamwork. A Logi is also defenceless whilst repping.

Yeah right try to take the objective on the gal. research facility during DOM while there are 6 heavys and 2 minlogis sitting behind them. Its not just that you aswell get a insane WP advantage and earn OB's insanely fast compared to any regular squad.

The Original Post, while pretty inflammatory in message, is still pretty spot on that the repair tool is a big advantage to armor that shield absolutely does not have.
I agree that logi/reptool isnt OP, but it is an imbalance in the meta game that armor has an option to have a logi around that not only completely eliminates but dramatically outperforms the only advantage that shield suits have right now: regen speed.
Some kind of shield support equipment needs to be introduced so that shields can compete and break the armor meta that exists right now. Its just one of the many things that happen that need to be fixed before shields arent a crap choice. |

As if this isn't what we are all doing every time we play that map, lol.
So you want a sheild rep tool that reps through damage, to use on a sheild tanked heavy with reactives on the lows, and native armor reps? Meanwhile, the armor tanked heavy is over here with no sheild recharge whatsoever while under fire. Hmm, seems a little unbalanced, don't you think? |

I personally would love a shield rep tool, but I see a minor flaw in how useful it would be.
Take for a moment a gallentae sent. (just as an example) if you had this rep tool on the heavy, after the shields are gone, what does it do?
rep through damage like the armour reppers?
and if so how would that work on the shields?
The way I see it it would only work if the shields were repaired only when armour is full, so it may be better to make the current rep tool be able to rep both armour and shields.
Again not saying I don't want one (totally do, really want to see some more cal sents on the field), but rather I don't see how one would work, and if someone else does, please explain. o7 and happy hunting :)

It would be way more insane if one minlogi had an armor repper and the other a shield repper. That heavy would be friggen invulnerable; weapon parity would be completely defeated. |

You make it sound like there's a lot of people against a shield rep tool, but I can't recall very many being apposed to it. For the most part, again from what I can recall, whenever it gets brought up the majority are in support of it.

NO
I main caldari, I run nothing but shield based fits and I disagree with introducing a shield rep tool, shields need a boost in power not a rep tool. if a player can be rep for armor and shields they cannot be killed. it breaks the game.
IMO shield fits should be rebalanced to be faster and more resilient then armour fits on a 1 v 1 bases
armour fits being rep'd should be more resilient/take more punishment then shield fits with the balance being someone on the team is taken out of the fight due to manning the rep tool.
Its as simple as this people

Cloud, id rather get a Remote Shield Booster. Activated for a certain amount of time and an area of effect, with a cool down.
I feel silly with a Caldari Logi and a repair tool on a heavy. I'd rather deploy this and use my gun. I'm not a Minmatar slave.

Being a support logi I'm in favor of a shield rep tool, but Atm there are not many Cal heavies around, and most mercs don't even blink when their shields are down.With the ability to increase the already fast shield recharge rates there would have to be some incentive to carry a shield rep tool.With the addition of armor rep on every suit support logis are over looked for most sqaud repping strategies. We are used for heavy reppers mostly, taking away another layer that makes logis useful to a team.The shield repper would have to have something that would make it viable for a sqaud to have (increase the amount of shields for a short time?) .

Its not a asbtract concept it was allready there for vehicles. You could do shield logistics with the charybdis logi LAV and armor logistics with the limbus. So the coding would be there allready and you just have to take the reptool model, make it heal shields only and add a new skill into the game for that.
And i do not understand the point of people that when a shield logi and a armor logi healing 1 dude would be a apocalyptic thing. Amarr sentinels with 4 complex plates whos aswell getting repped by 2 minlogis is aswell unkillable if you go up against him solo. We are talking here teamplay and people think that 1 guy with a gun should be 1 heavy+2 logis? I dont see the logic behind that due to the fact that you are basically fighting 3 people, not one.
Plus you should allways focus on each suits primary tank. Its for example useless to try to rep a cal. assault with a reptool due to the very low amount of armor. In every scenario it is better to support the main tanking capabilitys.
2 armor repping logis> 1 armor repper+ 1 shield regnerater 2 shield regneratering logis> 1 armor repper+ 1 shield regnerater 2 shield regneratering logis = 2 armor repping logis
You have to aswell keep in mind that shields cannot get over 1000HP the maximum that a cal. sentinel can get is 946HP. A amarr sentinel can get up to 1344HP on armor. Thats 398HP more then the cal sentinel. So the cal sentinel has less base HP then the amarr and cannot even use a damage mod with that high amounts of shields.

You aren't wrong about any of that, but I strongly feel that both of the points that I raised merit discussion, particularly the point regarding the imbalance caused by the cessation of native and module introduced shield recharge by damage. Sentinels supported by shield reps will have an inherent advantage over an armor-rep because of native armor repairs and repair capable modules. |

What are people talking about repping through damage? It takes 2-3 proto rep tools to even negate the damage of a single rifle, let alone rep through damage. Put two rifles on any heavy in the open and he will drop, repper or not. If he is using cover, well thats just smart play. I understand that heavy logi trains are frustrating, but people are blowing rep tools way out of purportion.

If we have shield repping then there really is no difference between shields and armor, no reason to differentiate them. I agree though that there is an imbalance between shield and armor tanking but I think it is best addressed by looking at damage profiles. Too many things just melt shields.
The logi problem, with Caldari having no role to play is another issue and I think repping provides way too much WP.
Because, that's why.
