the secret is you are not meant to use the rep tool... no really that's why the lock on is the longest in the game. |

I'm having the same problems, never noticed it reaping me though. Acctualy, I haven't been able to repair a dropsuit yet. I can lock on to people and activate the rep, but so far it hasn't worked once yet. |

They turned the tool back on, but it only works half the time. |

I can't even figure out how I can lock onto people with that, I've locked a friendly once, and he was beside me, and locked myself a dozen times. |

What I don't get is that the repper and shield transfer modules work for the vehicles, but the repair tool doesn't work for the LAV.
If the problem is something that's built in why not just make an equipable tool but raise the CPU/PG high enough that only the Limbus/Charybdis can use it. |

I know I have a Charybdis.. seems pointless nothing has that kindof shield to rep for a minute and still hold LOS on them after the 6 second lock on. really why is that long? its pointless, managed to reps 4 people and told them I was but every time the LOSed me and lost the rep and they died. |

So what do I do to initiate the lock? I didn't even have LOS the first time I used it. I just clicked on it and it seemed to auto target. Then every other time I click it and I look at my mate and it sounds like its locking but when I click it again it does nothing then shows a square around me occasionally and reps me >.<

They should really just make all the repair stuff proximity based at this point. When they can properly code radius on a 3-D plane that is. All of the vehicle modules are too cumbersome to use. My corp found out the hard way when we were trying to make spider tanking with vehicles a thing. |

well vehicle to vehicle can be kindof bad but the LLAV is worse. its clunky and takes way to long to use. |

Once you've selected the module from the radial menu (R2), you should have the targeting box. Hover over a player with that for a few seconds, and a blue square ought to appear on them...they're locked. Aim at another player until they lock, rinse and repeat...I've heard the max is five. Activate the module (R1), and hope they don't move out of Line Of Sight...
If you normally play KB/M, just pick up the DS3 for this...aiming for lock-ons is impossible with the mouse unless they're right in front of you, since the camera keeps re-centering. |

Thank you sir, see people the Dust community can be helpful at times :P Seriously, thanks mate, gonna bust out another ten and tandem drop them for me and a mate and test it a bit. Thanks for your help gents, appreciate it. They definitely need to make that interface a bit more intuitive |
