==Remote Repair vs. Local Repair== | |||
One, very intuitive reason for including logistics ships in fleets is so that damage dealers can focus on their own role; by having logistics ships manage repair, the other, combat-oriented ships in the fleet can fit more modules, rigs, and implants dedicated to damage-dealing. But another, less intuitive justification is that logistics ships are often ''better'' at repairing other ships than those ships are at repairing themselves. | |||
The biggest effect however is that a squad of logistic ships can focus all of their remote repair modules on a single target. In comparison in a group of self repairing ships only the ship taking damage can usse their repair modules. This makes remote repairing the only practical method of repairing in larger fleets. | |||
