T3 Logistics (Loki)

Recommended Posts

Line Pilots are now allowed to fly T3 Logistic Cruisers. Currently, only the Loki will be accepted into fleets. 

  • In order to Fly a T3 Cruiser, a pilot must first prove that they are a capable Logistics pilot by earning the Trusted Logi badge from a WTM Line Commander. 
  • Once you have the Trusted Logi badge and the skills, the waitlist will confirm them when you x-up for the first time.
    • Be sure to be logged into Teamspeak, so the FC can see your badges easier.

Rep Application:

  • T3 Logi use 8 Medium Remote Shield Boosters vs the T2 Logi’s 4 Large Remote Shield Boosters. 
  • The medium reps have a much shorter optimal range (7km vs 32km), and less repping power per rep than the Large but the additional modules (8vs4) allow the T3 logi to outrep T2 logi at any distance.
  • When applying reps, 1.5 medium reps are equivalent to 1 Large Rep; so, in a situation where you would normally apply 2 large reps, you want to use 3 medium reps.
  • T3 cruisers get large bonuses to Overheating: the Offensive subsystem skill increases the benefits of overheating by 50%. T3 pilots therefore should expect to use heat far more liberally. 

Anchoring: 

  • For the TPPH and NRF it is not really necessary to do anything different than T2 Logi (orbit Booster at 10km).
    • To get more performance out of your reps you can anchor closer to the DPS, typically near the Kronos.
  • For the TCRC, keep at range 10km from the tower, once you get to the tower you can turn your prop mod off and sit still.
    • In the TCRC site there is only one initial aggro, the changes of logi getting a swap are slim, and the Loki has the tank to handle any troll aggro without speed. Sitting still prevents you from bumping into battleships/structures.

T2 vs T3 Benefits:

  • T2 logi bring utility to the fleet in the form of Combat Caps or Remote Tracking Computers. T3 logi do not bring any utility.
  • T3 logi rep harder than T2 logi. T3 logi are also more tanky than their T2 counterparts; therefore, they can more freely use their reps. Getting aggro in the T3 is not as dangerous as a T2 logi.
