Ludwig Van Beatdropin Royal Uhlans Amarr Empire 195	Posted - 2012.12.03 16:35:00 - [1] - Quote I was thinking on changing my role from assault to logistic. Would this be worth the change or no? I mean If you think about It 4 high and low slots, 3 equipment slots, and you run at a faster speed than assualt. It sounds nice but I want to be sure about what I'm getting myself into. it would also be good for a lot of other players try something other than assualt tbh. Any advice from Logi bros would be helpful.
Garrett Blacknova Codex Troopers 1849	Posted - 2012.12.03 16:39:00 - [2] - Quote Well, firstly, there isn't going to be a reset, so you'll still be skilled into Assault. But beyond that, you should be fine for skilling into Logi as well if you want to. If you were there for the Skinweave event, you should have a free Militia Logi suit, so you can experiment with it if you want to get a feel for an equipment-heavy playstyle.
843 pano 843 Boot Camp 200	Posted - 2012.12.03 16:44:00 - [3] - Quote Logi gets a 15% hack speed bonus, so there's that too.

Any advice from Logi bros would be helpful. in the next build logibro will get 2 new forms of sp rewards so that should help. We play logis as combat medics so you are suppose to have a gun game anyways. If you already have your assault skills where you want then its not a bad alternate to play. I would try it now when sp doesn't matter. So if you dont like it you wont waste sp when it counts the negative is slower strafe and movement speeds and that does make a diference against a good player shooting at you. Also there isn't a b series with more sheild its just more speed. the positive is that do get higher cpu/pg and if you stick with a squad you easily can use injector/hives/reppers consistantly but still carry gek or duv.
TEXA5 HiTM4N ROGUE SPADES 49	Posted - 2012.12.03 16:49:00 - [6] - Quote most of those slots would need to be armor and shield upgrades, even then you would not have as much shields as an assault. you probably knew this since there is no difference between armor and shields on the base stats of the basic suit and the proto logi suits. I myself use the armor plates to beef up my logi and can stand up to pretty much anyone even a heavy at the cost of slower movement and not being able to jump over railings. If you want a speed logi you are gonna need to stay at range with either a laser or tactical rifle, otherwise you'll be too squishy to go toe-toe with a type II assualt. however if you do decide to go logi make sure you pack explosives, doesnt matter if its a 10,000 shield gunloggi or a militia tank if you set five of them on that tanks path they will destroy it. well those are the basics if you got anymore questions feel free to ask. I don't know if you've seen me in a game but i usually have over 15 kills in my assualt logi and 25 in my sniper logi.
Lavirac JR DUST University Ivy League 129	Posted - 2012.12.03 16:52:00 - [7] - Quote As a Heavy, who really don't have LogiBros around me usually, Logis are my favorite people in Dust. One Logi and One Heavy working together can do a lot of damage. And any Lady Logis out there, I'm single and run a small manufacturing business. Just saying, you're my type.
Paran Tadec Imperfects Negative-Feedback 902	Posted - 2012.12.03 16:54:00 - [8] - Quote If you are online tonight ill give u a rundown on logi
Sentient Archon Red Star. 690	Posted - 2012.12.03 16:56:00 - [9] - Quote Ludwig Van Beatdropin wrote: 3 equipment slots Logi Protos have 4 equipment slots on the Vk0s. It it great for the REs and PMs. Combine that with a nanohive and nanite injector and its all drooly. I say forget the ARs and go for SMGs. Put a code breaker mod and increase your hacking skills. I <3 Logis.

Any advice from Logi bros would be helpful. I am doing the same thing. It is very easy to make WP's with a logi and catch your isk nut, even if you do dismal on the boards(specced into laser rifle on my logi alt to try it out) Logi suits are not faster than assault suits, they are slower than them. They have less hp then assaults as well. I think it is viable. Forge gun was a disappointment.

Scheneighnay McBob Bojo's School of the Trades 1058	Posted - 2012.12.03 22:22:00 - [11] - Quote Find a good gun, and logis can be better assaults than assaults. Right now I'm running a sever logi suit with a TT-3 assault scrambler pistol, some great mods for improve my shields and armor, and a very useful (but non-medic) selection of equipment, such as remote explosives and nanohives. Might trade in the repair tool I use with my LAVs for an active scanner.

Any advice from Logi bros would be helpful. Look at the Logi suit with 25 stamina RECUPERATION per second. Endurance L5, Vigor L5 and Mobility L5. Run like a bunny on meth!!! no pause!! non stop running!!!

Active Scanners are very useless most of the time Also, Logi's are important cai vrai, pero I don't think they run faster, they have to have a good gun to keep up (Logi Sniper is a no no), and can find themselves outmatched against an Assault with same mods and tier. They do rack up the WP though.
Reav Hannari Red Rock Outriders Red Rock Consortium 295	Posted - 2012.12.03 22:58:00 - [14] - Quote With all the LAVs that have been swarming the objectives lately I've found my AV grenades to be quite useful. Can't quite bring myself to trade in my remote armor repper for proximity mines even without the WP gain but those would be very useful too. I park myself at an objective and keep any visiting slayers up and running and provide fire support with my mass driver and AV grenades.

Tiel Syysch Imperfects Negative-Feedback 633	Posted - 2012.12.03 23:14:00 - [16] - Quote The only real drawback is the lack of a sidearm. If you're used to using one, you'll have to adjust your play style some. Other than that, there's really not that much of a difference between logi and assault. Advanced and Proto level logi suits can have more hp than assault suits too. It's not much (~35-65 hp depending on which comparison), but I think a lot of people assume they're squishier when they're not.
Enderr Wigginn KILL-EM-QUICK RISE of LEGION 57	Posted - 2012.12.03 23:27:00 - [17] - Quote If you have aurom to spare from say the merc pack you can run a completely free logi setup at low level, that is how I got into loving playing the logibro and then decided to put sp into making it better. The setup is Server bpo logi suit then just bpo nanohive, injector and repair tool then varied bpo high, low slots and gun depending on play style. I still run with this setup because it is completely free.
lDocHollidayl Imperfects Negative-Feedback 171	Posted - 2012.12.04 00:04:00 - [18] - Quote FYI Proxy mines are junk. The damage is crazy low. (for a stationary AV mine) I hesitate to say but I believe only the proto type can kill a vehicle miltias like...and I have to say I usually hit it with two so that may be a lie too. The range is short too. i have placed 3 on a road only to have the LAV drive through them untouched. They need a little work.

After losing a plated Gurista's LAV to proximity mines I threw enough points into them for the standard version. I managed to catch four LAVs in the next battle and none the rest of the evening. I switched back to my normal load out after that and haven't tried them since.
