+1 for originality, but I'm afraid I can't agree as the WP is how you get SP. How do you propose determining how much SP each logi activity awards? This is why I don't agree as I don't think there is a clear way to give SP based on performance without involving WP. Let me know if you come up with a way to do thi.

If you're getting OB spammed, the problem isn't logis getting WP, its the 6-man squads and not increasing the OB requirement.

So then logis would exploit the system to gain mad amounts of SP..?

Logibro's get capped WP's, yea, but that never stopped me from going #1 in many games in the previous build. There were several occasions where I had 3k+ WP's and went like 3/0, 4/7...

The reward you get from being a logibro is the biggest pat on the back from the proto suit you just saved for someone. If you're in it for the SP or something, best find a different profession, because this one isn't for you.

Um, yeah... No.

My argument is that logistics get's paid the most for the risks incurred. That is to say that a good logistics isn't worried about his K/D ration, but rather plays for the team. This naturally means that his K/D ratio is abysmal due to the fact that a good logistics is dong his job 100% of the time. This in turn means the only time a logistics should be playing the role of a shooter is when he absolutely needs to (when the situation is so desperate that he has to shoot or risk death). If the logistics has to play a shooter role it is because he either doesn't understand his role and how to play it well, the team is either in the wrong place at the wrong time, has bitten off more than it can chew or that team is at the tip of the spear. Therefore CCP has given the logistics a number of ways to make SP and ISK in order to make up for the added sacrifice of a nasty looking K/D ratio.

I think the WP awarded for a logistics doing his job is not unreasonable, a team a logistics does not make. The orbitals are earned by the team, not the logistics alone.

This would result in an "uncoupling" of SP gain from WP that would be an awkward precedent. So now do snipers receive extra SP but no WP every time they 'ping' a target that results in a kill? Do I get SP but no WP for calling in an LAV that my team hops into? It's just... not ideal. I would rather have the amount per tick reduced and have it be constant. Say, 5-10 WP per tick healed or something like that.

I logi happily with no expectations for someone else to pick me up or a fatter check.

You don't logi for stuff. You logi to be helpful.

EDIT: It's not about the individual. It's about the team.

Some matches the triage WP gain limit kicks in and kills my WP gain, SP gain and makes me wonder if my equipment is being used or is destroyed. If anything I would say the triage limit should be removed. It does no good to give a reward then take it away because someone is exceptionally good at using the mechanic of the game.

LogiBros are the backbone of any good squad. I have yet to play a match this build where someone didn't tell me that they need ammo or reps or both. If you look into the SP needed to skill the modules that provide those things it will be apparent that it is a massive undertaking to skill into a Logistics role and rewards should be commensurate with the task.
