It just keeps getting worse for the Caldar logi. In total, this is what the nerf is going to do to my character's abilities at the proto level:
-91 HP reduction because of the change to the bonus.
-40+ CPU reduction simply because the devs has said so (this makes no sense).
-An expensive but necessary investment in shield regulators (because it's the new, albeit temporary Caldari logi bonus) of almost 1 mil SP, which will result in obtaining a module that will return my shield recharge delay to a level that is just barely better than it was prior to 1.3. This is problematic because this module takes up a low spot (causing me to lose something else) and the devs have already stated that the shield regulator bonus is only temporary, which makes plunging precious skill points into it even more of a sham.
This is a garbage move, CCP. I don't care what kind of history you have doing this sort of thing in EVE, it still reeks of bait and switch.
I was on the fence about respecs before all of this was announced, but now I'm squarely in the camp in favor of them. Had the Caldari logi had these limitations to begin with, I would have certainly chosen a different path. In fact, being a Gallente logi is looking pretty amazing right now.

You guys laugh, but many of us who chose Caldari logi were actually support players with good intentions. We had no idea that the suit was going to be exploited by assault players. I went Caldari because I felt that despite having less equipment, the exceptional surviverability was worth the trade off. The Caldari logi suit no longer has that edge. Come 1.3, the Gallente logi will better tanked, have more equipment slots, and have absolutely no problem fitting anything because of its outstanding equipment bonus, which decreases the CPU and PG for equipment 5% per level. With certain configurations of equipment that could result in savings of around 80+ CPU and 20+ PG.
Had these suits stacked up this way to begin with, I would be a Gallente logi right now. |

If I were a Gallente logi, I could fit it with shields and armor totaling over 900+ HP, a proto weapon, four pieces of proto equipment, and probably a proto grenade. Speed would be my only deficit. You call that squishy? |
