I am wondering how the isk payout is calculated for logistics, I had a match where I went 1200+ wp more than a fellow corp mate who whent 1200+ wp also, I had 5 kills and 3000+ healing, and my corp mate made over 400k ISK with less wp and I only made 200k isk, is there an issue with payouts for logistics or are logistics roles just supposed to make less ISK even tho they have decent WP's? |

I believe the payout increase is based on what gear your opponents were wearing. You get a base 200k isk or so for scoring well but you can increase that if you kill a bunch of proto wearing enemies. Same with Tanks and Dropships! The more Proto you take out the more isk you make. Thats why you can get 400K one match and only 200k the next. Also you have to remember that you probably performed better in the 200k isk reward match because there wasnt near as much Proto running around!? |

logi ends up with lower pay out because they typically do less damage. its a pretty ****** system, considering that logis carry extra gear on more expensive suits and enable the rest of the team to keep moving and fighting instead of running for a supply depot every 3 minutes.
when you combine that with the crazy spawning mechanics constantly placing red dots on your six; buggy revive mechanics that leave the logi square dancing over revivable bodies until they get picked off; and the crazy amount of SP needed just to get into the lowest rank logi suit; it makes a person wonder why anyone would want to be a logi. |

Logis and pilots both need some help. Granted, I can get 35+ kills and end up with about 250k isk. I don't think its just you guys. lol |

There are several factors involved when getting paid. Its not only based on WP,
One factor id the "meta level" of the person you killed. Someone in a starter fit may have a meta level of 3 wile someone in prto gear has a meta of 9.
So for arguments sake: 3 meta = 300 ISK & 9 meta = 900 ISK.
One game i got 600k ISK and another i got 200k, all based on the effectiveness of my role.
Im a logibro btw |

Wow I swear this forum is on drugs. One second they're trying to nerf us to oblivion, the next they say we don't get paid enough.
Anyway, yes ISK payout is largely defined by the gear of enemies you defeat. I personally do not believe it is a broken system because the assaults deserve love also for actually shooting that proto geared up PFBH/SI/IMP dead. Logistics is super important and can mean the difference between who wins or who loses, but the assault member of the squad is still the one who fires the bullet to win in the first place. |

I was #2 on the leaderboard in the match I was talking about #1 in my squad by about 20 wp in this case the assault person who made 1236 wp to my 1255 wp he got over 400k isk where I barely topped 200k isk, so if the over payout is team based I should have gotten more isk in that situation, a few matches later I did score #1 on the leaderboard and made aprox 360k isk but still lost money in that match.
to be any good at your role you have to use min adv suits and adv equipment and even as a adv logi I am still squishy with 2 enhanced shield extenders and 3 enhanced armor reps and I still tend to lose money on 200-350k isk payouts, I truly believe that the isk payouts should be more for logibros when we work hard at our roles, yes there are some opportunities for abuse of the wp system with repping vehicles and turrets and so I somewhat understand why we dont get points for that but I really think that should change, ie if the tank or turrets have been damaged by a team member then no wp should be earned but if the tanks, turrets, and lav's were damaged by the enemy you should earn wp for repping them.
I honestly believe CCP needs to look more into helping the logibro earn isk and fix so many problems with that role. |

Logi suit is more expensive to load out than same level assault suit. Logi dies more often, being caught with an armor repper, injector, REs or some other equipment in their hands instead of a weapon.
A good logi, who works his tools well, can easily post at the top of the leader boards but his pay doesn't always reflect his contribution. I've seem logis go 0/5 or worse and place at the top of the WP; I wonder how much they get as a payout for that type of showing. |

I laugh when I go 2 and 5 but place second or third on player list because of my links and reps. Other mercs can worry about their kdr. I could care less. I cant help but wonder how well good corps do when they embrace a logi bro. |
