Implying that a good assault is more important than a good logi
Implying that a good assault does more work than a good logi
Implying that a good assault has more impact on the outcome than a good logi
implying that a good assault deserves better rewards than a good logi
Implying that logi is not a force multiplier
Implying that your K:D is more important than keeping your team effective

Do you see why people might be taking issue with that fact that you think n+1 > 2n ?

Is sticking your rep tool up the arse of a good heavy ludicrously easy? Sure
Does it always help your team? Not necessarily
Can it help your team a great deal, and do you get more WP when it does? You bet your Paridae
Is just this enough reason to change the WP gain of reps? No. Stop whining.

I still feel that rep tools, while already having a wp threshold, should also have a capacitor or overheat function to prevent spam, as well as a sort of diminishing return based on how many rep tools ar3 active on a single target. To counter your argument, smart reps, coupled with players who know when to stop getting shot, is a valuable asset to the way the game is currently played. You cant fault players for using this system any more than you can fault players for using the strongest fotm fit rather than using elevated skill to augment their playing.

Maybe we rep because we WANT our squad to have ammo, links that aren't 15 second timers, or a proto scanner to keep them aware. Maybe Im thankful I get that payout when I die 10 times in a suit carrying proto scan, hives, links and my favorite FW repper. Sprinting around in a scout suit sounds fun. Shooting the Jump fit Officer MD fits sounds fun too, I cannot. I die. I come back and still help my squad however I can and that huge payout SOMETIMES helps me break even. Ill work on that running away (not getting shot) thing, but I cant leave my squad behind. Have fun with your tanks. In a perfect world you could just not die so much? I rep, revive, link and resupply in a bpo logi suit with nearly no hp mods and still have above 1.0 kdr. I'm not a slayers slayer, but I'm not a punk either. Knowing who to rep, when to rep them as opposed to just letting them eat it and reviving them after you clean up, where to drop links that wont be farmed, etc etc are all a part of being a good logi, as much as having situational awareness, tactical I.Q and things that are combat related. Not knocking anyones playstyle, but being a logi doesn't in any way shape or form mean you have to rush headlong into death to get points. (Gê¬n+Ç-´)GèâGöüGÿån+ƒ.pâ+n+ín+ƒ. LASERS BTCH!!!!!!

The entire basis of your rebuttal is based on the fact that you assume he is talking about a good logi vs a rep hooker. Not. The. Same. (Gê¬n+Ç-´)GèâGöüGÿån+ƒ.pâ+n+ín+ƒ. LASERS BTCH!!!!!!
