I was actually really surprised at how much easier Logi is than being a vindy driver. Granted, i'm only a level 4 logi, so I don't have tracking links yet, and I can't drive a basi, but I also don't have to worry about burning in to range, switching ammo when I'm close enough, applying webs to targets I'm not yet shooting, keeping track of targets so I know when to burn to the next anchor spot, etc.
If I'd known, I would have started out as logi, been able to save all the pennies not having to worry about buying ammo, and then figured out which ship I want to end up in most.
