You could have entirely new class in the game that revolves around this. Combat Engineer class that focuses on building stuff. A heavy frame logi :D.

A heavy frame logi would be brutal think about it a heavy that can take multiple hit dropping uplinks reviving down friendly and repping other heavies plus about 14 to 20 kil kills and stuff 5000 warbarge every time lol

I threw up a little in my mouth as I read this.

As much as I love heavies, "Utility" is not a niche that this grouping of dropsuits can be placed into without repeating the "slayer logi" days of yore. And I do not use "slayer logi" casually because most people poorly understand what happened and why it was a thing.

The reason for this was the period when you could get a logi to near-sentinel levels. Because they could outstrip assaults in HP by anywhere up to 40%, they were the go-to combat suits.

Making a heavy logi would, by definition, be repeating this exact mistake rather blithely. Any time logis of any stripe are more durable than assaults with more urutility options, we will see a resurgence in the phenomenon.

also these shields have shield and armor like an infantry or vehicle
