So, the current problem with Logistics is their insane tank. Their beefed up CPU/PG - which was intended to allow them to fit equipment - is being abused to allow them to fit complete racks of complex mods. Something that other, non logistics suits struggle to do, or can only do if they sacrifice in other areas.

So, I propose the following: Lower Logistics CPU/PG to be in-line with non-logistics suits. Don't nerf it in to the ground, but rather put it at comparable Assault levels. Then, give all Logistics suits a bonus which reduces the fitting requirements of certain equipment.

And presto. Logistics, without the broken fitting options. Problem solved.

Good luck getting support from logis who opt advanced or higher equipment for survivability. Also if my CPU/PG is to be lowered give me a sidearm since i will now be an assault suit, oh and dont forget to give me my speed back please; hell give me faster speed than an assault since my HP would be pretty low now.

HP tanking is needed to make logis durable so it can perform its support duties. Welcome to life as any other suit. I've got 4/4/4 fitting skills, and I run a Proto Heavy suit. I do not have the CPU/PG to fit full complex high and low slots. It's simply not there. Same for when I run Proto Mediums. Logistics have the capability to fit more Complex gear than any other class due to their higher CPU/PG. As I said, it was meant for equipment. Forgo the equipment, and you create a suit that has more EHP than a Heavy, with more mobility, survivability, and offensive power than ALL of it's peers. Hope that answers that question.

Yeah.. 100% agree with you. Unfortunately, we're not likely to see anything on that front any time soon, what with them focusing on core mechanics and bugs..

Let me get this straight.. "Good luck getting support from the community that needs a nerf.". Yes, I think you're right. Nobody wants to get nerfed, so I really don't expect their backing. Having said that, I don't see many Logi's offering up a solution, so I suppose we have to take what we get.

Simple. Peace, Aizen Incoming or outgoing damage reduction? And are you saying, move the module bonus to equipment instead?

It's the 'fake' Assault logis that are causing the bind were in. How do we some their flavor of the month outrageous fits?
