Right now, you can only earn a certain amount of WP from triage bonuses with the repair tool over a certain amount of time. Basically, once you've earned your first bonus, an invisible timer starts. You can only earn a few more bonuses afterwards until you "cap" off. After the timer ends, you can start earning bonuses again.
This is to prevent exploits where players would damage themselves, then have someone repair them for an endless cycle of WP gain without having to participate in combat.
BUT
What if this timer automatically ended whenever you scored a kill, or an assist, or a guardian bonus?
So as long as you stay in combat and help support your teammates, you can keep earning wp, without ever having to worry about it being exploited! |

Good approach!
I often find myself in the situation where I am close in combat repairing mates who fighting the bad guys. Keep armor up on Heavys and treat collateral damage on others.
In return I get not that WP reward what others will have by killing and shredding the enemy.
Some love in that direction would be appreciated. No huge overhaul but a little treatment maybe  |

Exactly! I don't see why this would be hard to implement at all. |

Interesting idea, I'd love to get a CCP comment on the tech side of this but that notwithstanding it sounds like a good way to keep things more fluid while still preventing prior exploits.

Guardian bonus resetting the timer is a fantastic idea!

Anything that will help the logis to continue repping me instead of running off once they hit that cap. |

It'd be a great way to make exploits harder to use (never say impossible) while not stopping a dedicated logi bro from getting a reward for their risk. |

altough im sure a group whit a crapy logi versus a group whit several logi's geting alot of wp = orbital heaven
will get them to ask for a nerf for either repair point's or removing of the reset of timer on gaurdian
wich we are requesting atm
a sad truth but the enemy will do wathever they can to make there enemy's lose WP
even if this screw's there logi's wp gain aswel |

Better ways to reduce Boosting than punishing the incentive to heal your team. |

+ 1. Had the same thoughts myself, as I'm a dedicated logi. Hopefully CCP will look into this. |

A solid idea that will keep random logis on point.
However, eventually the repairing isn't about the WP it's about helping the team. I want more incentive to help the team verse trying only to get MY WPs. |

As a full time logistics player, not earning wp for healing makes me have to go back and forth between killing and healing. While I wait for the points to be able to come back, I help with cover fire. The problem with this is that the game doesn't give me an option to go full logi in battle. I have to have a good gun in order to continue to earn wp.
By giving logistics the ability to continuously earn points while preventing exploits, that essentially supports the idea that logistics should be helping the team at all times. This is at least a step in the right direction. |

Any chance we could get a comment from devs on the feasibility of implementing such a change from a programming perspective?
Please and thank you! |

I'm gonna edit the title of the post to see if I can get a reply from a DEV on this. So far I've got almost 30 likes and not a single person against this.
Also, this seems SUPER simple to add into the game. I'm not a coder, but I know quite a bit about game design (used to use Games Factory a lot) and can say from personal experience that it shouldn't be complicated or take a lot of time at all to implement. |
