Oooook... I guess we will all be respec'ing logi then...
My problem is this... I do NOT run dual tanked suits, but I am getting a nerf because some people do. Amarr assaults don't run dual tank either... typically they fill the high slots with damage mods and then stack reactive and armor reps... same with gallente. So then... I see this as a buff to the armor meta and a nerf to min and cal assaults.
Honestly, though, Rattati, wouldn't you find it more "fair and leveling" to make the armor plates more synergistic in their effect? as of right now, each plate is treated as a separate entity and the decrease in total movement speed is not compounded. Someone can stack 3 reactives and will only miss 3% of their total run speed, which is laughable. Why don't you make it follow a curve? 1% for the first, 3% for the second, 7% for the third, etc? That would make much more sense, and it would allow the shield purists a bone to gnaw at... albeit, a bone with nothing left on it. Essentially, if we're discussing power consumption over time, 200 lbs requires twice the force as 100 lbs... 400 lbs takes four times the force (for all of those who missed high school physics, Force = mass * acceleration; and I understand a pound is a measurement of weight ant not mass...). So, considering the increasing taxation on energy requirements, a small, linearly stacking decrease isn't enough... it should follow a curve, and so that if you stack multiple plates of any type, you face the hidden curve.
Armor tanking has been the meta since 1.06... it finally needs real alignment (not just the suits), and shields do need a buff, as they are, currently, to high risk in a game that promotes stacking eHP.
Please note: grammar and spelling may be off due to posting onmy phone...

As an old school player, I remember when 90% of all deployed suits in any match were cal logi for this very reason.
Out of that came the logi nerf AND the AR nerf... as they also only used the tac ar

On a second note... making sure all equipment slots are filled is almost useless, too...
Slayer logi with 3 or 4 compact nanohives?

Slayer logi with 3 or 4 compact nanohives? Make all equipment slots mandatory + increase CPU/PG fitting bonuses for logis + reduce CPU/PG for logis = plenty of CPU/PG for equipment but not much left for brick tanking and proto weaponry.
Sounding good, to be honest.
I would like to see that + the curved impact of stacking plates

I would agree, but I already put my own pet horse in the race (see wall of text on page 4) that I think would work without having to drastically lower all assault movement speeds.
