*sigh* (here we go again)
A dropsuit's capabilities are determined by their base stats and slot allocation in regards of their race. If you look closely, the logistcs suits are actually inferior to their assault counterparts, usually base HP, movement speed, sprint speed and stamina. They also lose a sidearm slot (except the proto Amarr) too. Their role is actually determined through their equipment over other class's base stats rolled for their respective role. Those extra slots and boosts to CPU/PG make them more relaint on modules to match the capabilities of other suits. If you want more slots, you have to endure lower base stats and pay more through each fitting. Also, that sidearm slot has to go too...
I actually made a full stat comparison of all the logis and their racial assault counterpart to prove this. The only thing that does stand out is the Caldari logi's racial bonus of 5% shield module efficiency per level which does make them overpowered. The other logis are fine as is, but the Caldari's bonus needs to be toned down to 2~5% per level to bring it down to the standards of the other suits.
Assault suits could use better bonuses to make them more attractive but that's a different topic for a different day. |

I love your stat comparison, I wish more people did research before jumping to conclusion.
Glad someone appreciates it. I've been campaigning against this whole logi gate thing since day 1, and I'm thinking of respecing into assault just to avoid the drama. This nerf witch hunt is one of the things that's killing this game at its core and people are too stubborn to realize it. Also, thanks for quoting me. I noticed an oversight in my post. I meant to say reduce the Caldari's racial bonus to 2~3% for balance.
Kind of off topic, but do you get a lot of hatemail too? I've been a Minmatar logi since Replication and now I find myself getting more hatemail for being a logi than I used to for using a MD. It makes me miss the old days when people used to just cry about heavies and tanks. |

That racial bonus needs to be toned down or shields in Dust 514 need to work like in EVE where you get a bigger scan signature and a larger hitbox. Which one would you prefer? |

Larger hit box on a 600+ shield vs a scrambler rifle must hurt.
600+ shields and we're talking about LAV hit box territory. |

Even modern weapons have underbarrel grenade launchers.
Sidearm huh? That idea was so good, Iron Wolf Saber suggested it... |
