We can throw out any shield mods and that narrows down our options. Myofibril stimulants are Minmatar and are not useful on slow, armored Gallante suits. In 1.8 damage mods are going to be useless on anything that isn't a Forge Gun, Proto HMG or Laser Rifle.
Our only option is Precision Enhacers, and based off the role of the Caldari Scout it is safe to assume they're of Caldari origin. Now Precision Enhacers need a couple of things to be effective: A scout suit (preferably a Caldari or Gallante one), and at least one range amplifier.
Precision Enhancers are good for Gallante scouts but in all honesty they are useless on any other suits. The Gallante Heavy will almost always need to have multiple complex range amplifiers and precision mods to be even mildly good at detecting anything further than six feet. Any other suit will fair better with an Active Scanner.
So the question stands,
Which high mods should Gallante suits run?

Which high mods should Gallante suits run? logis got a nice buff to precision and range in 1.8
base stats are 15m radius and 45db precision
so range amps and precision amps will be useful to logis pretty soon

Yeah but the Logi will already get a bonus to Active scanners and scanners make these mods obsolete.
Though I guess at least the Logi will be able to use them even if they're redundant. What about the Gallante Assault and Gallante Sentinel.

Well there's always been a lack of high-mods. I once made a post with idea for high-mods that were actually unique...
Module Ideas
I particularly like the High Powered Armor Repair. While you'll be losing your shields you can effectively rep tank with the Gallente(which is a play style I particularly prefer).
The Rate of Fire one as well.
Think the stopping power module might be OP...

Damage mods are still damage mods, and shield energizers are pretty useful if you want to buffer tank.
I am your scan error.

reason being if I have my rep tool on a heavy I can use my passive scans to call out approaching threats without having to stop reps and pull out a scanner leaving us both with our pants down
I actually run precisions on all my gallente suits I play scout and lately ive been liquidating my inventory of suits I wont be using in 1.8 precisions are useful on assaults and logis regardlessof what everyone says of thinks
most people stack damage/shields/armor on their assaults and logi's I run my adv assault with a rep, a damp, a range, a precision, and a damage mod I run my standard the same way minus the damage mod

Dust high slots are analagous to midslots in eve. So in that vein:
Reactor Battery (Orange Potions): Gives a set amount of stamina. 150/225/300.
"Extra Pockets" (no good name thought up): Gives you either +1 grenade, +20% ammo (one clip), or 1 extra piece of equipment (type specific). Those are all "or" btw. And ammo could be broken into light, heavy, and sidearm variants (or combined for more utility).
Deflection Field: Stops 1 attack from going through every x seconds. Could either save your life from a sniper's bullet or be wasted on a single AR round.
Now is the winter of our non-content.

I support both of your other suggestions.

Everything you said was garbage.
Also, about the damage modifiers being useeless - you DO realize that anyone who has a damage modifier will have an immediate advantage over anyone who doesn't and is using the same weapon one on one, right? You can't be this dense.

All of the Gallente modules that belong in the highs are in the lows (dampeners) any others are non existant. Equally there are many Models that belong in the highs that are in the lows that are not Gallente.
For the Federation!

Well the difference was supposed to be a percentage vs a flat amount. They'd give amounts typically higher than you'd get with percentage based mods, but without the regen bonus that Regulators also give.
For example: Cal & Gal assaults have 150 stamina. Minmatar has 175. Amarr has 200.
So with a complex regulator (100% bonus to stamina, 50% regen bonus) those turn into 300, 350, and 400, respectively. We'll say that the complex Reactor Battery gives 250 stamina (my previous numbers are a little high, in hindsight).
So it gives 166% to Cal and Gal assaults, 143% for Minmatar Assaults, and 125% for Amarr assaults. But it doesn't give the regen bonus. Then it's up to the player to decide if the extra pool is worth the longer regen time.
Now is the winter of our non-content.

You can't be this dense. First off you're a jerk/D-bag for insulting a person for holding an opinion. Second, 5% more damage isn't even noticeable.
Seriously, when's the last time you used anything below a Complex Damage mod?
If you do the math, as others have, then you will realize that running shield extenders is mathematically better; two people with the same exact class, except one has a Complex Shield extender and one has a Complex Damage mod, the one with the Shield Extender will win by a very small margin.
So if we do go mathematical about it, then it is better to use a Complex Shield Extender than a Complex Damage mod.

Pretty sure they don't belong in the lows. Have you ever played Dust before posting this? |
