I would fine with a WP system that rewarded me based off of the percentage of armor repped and to be honest I think it would incentivize players to use better gear and suits for the purpose intended.

I have three racial variants of logi suits at the advanced level. I use my Min for uplink deployment because of the speed and hack bonus, I hack after I deploy uplinks. I have a Gal for my for my dual rep suit and my dual hive suit and if I want to stay in battle longer and rep better I use an Amarr with a needle, Six tool and rep hives. I said that to say this. I don't mind the racial equipment bonus and to be honest it would more fit my style of loging.

If you would like, I can run stater, standard, advanced and proto gear for a week each and report back with the screenshots of the end results. Nothing better than real world data. You make good arguments for progressively better rewards for higher tier equipment. It is good to see a merc who is out working for real #logilove (my # on twitter for good logi matches) I played about 10 matches today about 1/3 in a corp squad, 1/3 in pickups and 1/3 solo and I place second in WP on my team almost every time and usually at least 4th in the whole 32.

I am not debating to try to stop you, I am debating to determine who is more correct and help articulate the problem better, without good data or well prepared points we have no chance of being heard. Many people confuse my up front way of voicing my opinion as trolling or being mean but it is just how I think. I am serious, if you want I will run different types of gear for a week each and report back with the tally. I will play the same as if I were in my favorite fit, I don't have any proto suits so I can't go to that level but I can give feedback up to the prototype suit level. I mainly use rep tools, they are my specialty.

Joined a one man squad today and he only beat me once in WP and it was in the first match, about half way through when I first joined him. He beat me by around 750 WP or so with a 40+/around 5 match, never got within 1000 WP after that. That is the only reason why I say that a good logi doing logi stuff doesn't need any help in the WP department. My problem is going 0/10 and making 250K and my logi being 50k each. I don't really care that much because I usually go like 1/5 and I usually make a profit. Kind of drunk and need to stop typing.
