Pros: more slots for things like repair guns, nanoinjectors, droplinks, etc. And decent cpu/pg for fitting.

Cons: double up your tank because you are squishy as hell. not as squishy as scouts, but still pretty bad. no real role bonus for doing logi things. assaults can repair just as much as a logibro.

Type 1 logi suit

.....
The logistics suit is geared to support, not fight. The problem is, in order to be an effective fighter, you need to back off on the support, and in order to be an effective support you need to back off on the fighting.

Basically, you can use the logistic's extra cpu/pg to use a better nanohive, but that doesn't give you a whole lot of room to also equip a repair tool and a nanite injector. Also, if you decide to equip armor modules, you end up becoming slower.

I am a medic who uses the mass driver and can tell you that the exo-5 is the most you can equip while still having enough to fit three equipment; however, this is still very effective and rakes in the skill points.

If anything, don't worry about having a repair tool if you just want to focus on killing things. Use just the nanohive and a basic nanite injector to save cpu/pg for better modules that will help you stay alive.
