Unfortunatly Logi's are slow, even if you equip them to move faster, it goings to be tough to use the shotgun effectively with it. If you're interested in running a semi support role with the shotgun, I actually suggest you try using a Scout suit with either a repair tool or nanite injector. It allows you to move around quickly while still providing some support and able to handle yourself in a fight.

You wont be able to run a full gambit of support fuctions due to the lack of more gear slots, but its very effective. I generally pull a 3+ KDR with it, all while keeping the armor of my teammates topped off. Trust me, Heavies will LOVE you if you're zip around the battlefield repairing their armor.

And trustme, this guy knows his way around a shotgun scoutsuit. Pokey, you prolly don't remember but you and I had a stand off this morning or last nite on the plateaus map. It may have been around the B objective area.

I was logi (smg I think) and you were scout shotgun, you had just finished off one of our guys and held the hi ground while I was trying to line up a shot...you pausedbehind cover and then leaped up into the air,over head and landed below & behind me, spinning shooting and my mouth was open....

I just laid there bleeding out and saying to no one in my living room," damn, nice kill."

I've noticed this as well, and I'll admit I've been guilty of bleeding out myself. It stems from the fact that 95% of the time when I see a Triage unit in the area....they never come to pick me up. Literally had Logi guys standing on top of my body, and just run off without picking me up. I think this has basically led to the death of nanites being used in pub matches....even so when you're running with an actual corp I know we'll see a resurgence of them. Hopefully.

Use them, be asset to team. Great idea. If more assault fits used injectors, maybe more people would end up waiting for a revive. At 60 points a pop and clone reserve counters, it would be just fine if they weren't nearly a complete waste of an equipment slot. Its why I use the repair tool more to be honest, you can always find someone to repair...however it works even better when someone gets revive and then you repair the missing armor, now THATS how its supposed to be done.

Yeah that was a tricky situation, I was not in a very good position because I know you had me with range so I was trying to move in without getting totally torn apart. You almost had me to, good game!
