In order to have all the logistics suits aligned I must petition the removal of 20 base CPU to Amarr, Gallente and Minmatar Logisitcs dropsuits from standard, advanced and prototype levels.
It is all for the sake of the game and balancing, so we must be fair if one dropsuit of the same class is getting hit we shall hit the others.
This is what happens when people ran to the FoTM (flavor of the month) gear/weapons. I find it funny because the people using Caldari Logistics were the same people saying no to re-specs but now they're the ones asking for one. So they did take 20 CPU away, it was needed since: 1.) shield tanking was easier to do on the logistics class instead of the Caldari Assault 2.) Caldari Logistics completely outdid the Assault variant in every way possible 3.) People were not using it for the true role 4.) FoTM, just like the TAC Rifles. 5.) You have 5 high and 4 low use a freaking cpu upgrade module
So no the other logistics suits do not need a cpu nerf. |

We already considered the CPU usage of High-Power and Equipment modules so we can concur that a difference in CPU usage is not a "factor", if we use the same logic from "quoted Text #2" then a decrease of 20 CPU to Amarr, Gallente and Minamatar logistics is viable given the following path of thought. The Gallente logistics dropsuit has 5 Low-Powered Slots and Minmatar has 4 Low-Powered Slots which are more than enough slots to fit a CPU chip, now if we bring Amarr to the picture we must take into consideration that having less slots also means less CPU usage which alleviates the CPU pressure of the dropsuit.
They have more PG than all of the other logistics suits now (all gained a plus 3 PG base). The reason Amarr had 3 high and 3 low is due to the fact that they're the only logistics suit in the game with a side-arm slot (which is now gained at standard level). Name me any other logistics suit that has that slot. Also (saying this like a broken record) your caldari suit has 5 high and 4 low
Also if you further read the article, the Amarr prototype logistics suit gained an additional low slot at pro tier and their third equipment slot at advance tier. So the Amarr logistics prototype suit now has 3 high and 4 low while still maintaining 390 CPU and 66 PG both are base values. Also if you threw in core upgrades with the electronics and engineering upgrades you can have a max of 512 CPU and 87 PG before putting on any modules. |

Let us mark out everything on a caldari logistics suit shall we: 1.) 5 high slots 4 low slots, if you lose 20 CPU use a module to fix it. The 20 CPU shouldn't even be that big of a hit if you spec into skills that lower CPU/PG of certain weapons and equipment. 2.) Even with the 20 CPU gone, you still have the highest EHP and the fastest shield depleted/recharge delay compared to other logistics suits. This means that you can just jump around a corner and rep your shields back in under 4 seconds 3.) You have the best combination of high and low slots to do dual tanking. Minmatar can do that but would have to give up a lot to do so. Gallente can do nothing but armor tank and Amarr doesn't have the option to dual tank 4.) At advance tier and standard tier, you still outplay the majority of logistics suits. I will agree that the 20 CPU loss is not needed at standard tier.
When I step back and look at the changes taking place, I would say it an okay change. the 20 CPU gone at standard level isn't needed but at advance and prototype levels it is needed. But if other suits were to obtain the 20 CPU loss then Caldari would be the FoTM/ungod like logistics suit again with the 5 high and 4 low at prototype level. In other words, applying the 20 CPU loss to all of the logistics suits would put us right back at the problem people had with Caldari Logistics suits.
So no to applying the 20 CPU loss to other logistics suits |

Who is the man who doesn't have toes to count with? 5, 4, 3 cal 4, 5, 3 gal, 4, 4, 4 min? Looks like 12 12 12 to me . in the end of the day Minmatar, galllente and Caldari do have 12 slots total. However with Amarr now gaining an additional low slot they now have 13 slots total. So in the end this is good. +1 |
