Hi there.
I decided to go the logistics path in Dust, and as I like armor repair modules I chose Amarr because of the nice bonuses to it.
After 2 days now of playing I begun to notice something - the Amarr Logisuit is quite subpar when looking another, flat out better dropsuit -> the Gallente Logisuit.
Let me explain:
The T3 Amarr logisuit has 3x low slots, this results in one being able to carry 3x armor repairer modules at most.
The T3 Gallente logisuit has the amazing number of 5x low suits, making one being able to use 5x armor repairer modules.
Logistics Suit Bonus +1 HP to dropsuit armor repair rate per level.
Amarr Logi Bonus +5% to efficacy of armor repairer modules per level.
Amarr Repair Systems +5% to armor repair modules efficacy per level.
Complex Armor Repairer 5,0 HP/s.
These values only count if one has lvl 5 in the following skills skills:
Armor Repair Systems
Amarr Logistics Dropsuit / Gallente Logistics Dropsuit
Amarr Suit:
25%+25% = 50%
50% / 100 = growth factor 1,50
5 HP/s x growth factor 1,5 = 7,5 HP/s
7,5 HP/s x 3 low slots = 22,5 HP/s
22,5 HP/s + 5 HP/s = 27,5 HP/s
Gallente Suit:
25% / 100 = growth factor 1,25
5 HP/s x growth factor 1,25 = 6,25 HP/s
6,25 HP/s x 4 lowslots = 25 HP/s
25HP/s + 5 HP/s = 30 HP/s
6,25 HP/s x 5 lowslots = 31,25 HP/s
31,25 HP/s + 5HP/s = 36,25 HP/s
As you can see, the gallente dropsuit is superior in armor repairing because of its extra low slots.
I think it would be nice if the T3 Amarr Logisuit had one more low slot to make its suitbonus more useful for those (like me) who stack up on armor repair modules.
Need to end this thread now as I need to leave, but I will continue later about another amarr dropsuit topic that I have in mind.

Added second topic about the Advanced Amarr logistics suit.
RedBleach LeSanglant wrote:I agree. The Amarr logi or Captain Mediocre as I call him, cannot compete against the other logis. To do so he would have to proto two weapons on top of all the logi skills he must have and decide between his equipment slots on what to sacrifice to stay in the game. Don't assault suits get two equipment slots at proto level? Meaning that an ASSAULT caldari would be a better logi than and AMARR logi - or at least on par with him as the caldari has more slots. That shouldn't happen.
If his bonus applied to ALL armor restoring equipment the skill may be worth the sacrifice. As in the bonus applying to his repair tool, nanite injectors, and armor reppers. One would sacrifice the medium stats for an advanced repping skill. That I could go for, but as is he is sad.
I like this idea, in fact what made me want to go the Amarr logistics path in the first place was because I thought the racial bonus applied to both remote armor repairers and armor reparing modules.
