1521. Scanning Table 1.8 - in General Discussions [original thread]
I love the table and use it a lot, so thanks very much. Just one point though. I have heard that profiles and precision get rounded to the nearest whole number and that a tie will favor the scanner, i'm not sure if this is true or not though. Does...

1522. CPM cloak discussion - in General Discussions [original thread]
Sorry to double post, but one more thing about the profile/scanning situation. I like it now as there are many more options and uncertainty. Before 1.8 it was easy to calculate or look up exactly what level of dampening you need. Now it is situati...

1523. CPM cloak discussion - in General Discussions [original thread]
TL/DR: If you have to change something change decloak speed, not fitting, charge, and definitely not profile reduction. Having read the OP edit this is my feedback. Although I am still of the opinion that cloaks are ok, people are adapting and i...

1524. CPM cloak discussion - in General Discussions [original thread]
The counter was and still is the focused active scanner. In 1.7 scouts always dampened below any scanners on the field. Cloaks affect the frequency of flanking attacks not the nature of them. Now it is arguably harder to avoid scans as passive sca...

The more 1.8 I play, as a scout or otherwise, the less cloak QQ I hear and the less of a problem it seems. People are adapting.

1526. Scout Registry / Killboard - in General Discussions [original thread]
Playing today I am even more of the opinion that cloak plus shotgun isn't overpowered. I was playing with my std min logi with a combat rifle and on numerous occasions, when a scout shotgunned me in the back, I was able to turn around and kill the...

1527. [Poll] General Consensus about Cloaks - in General Discussions [original thread]
I don't think there is a problem with cloaks and shotguns. If attacked from the front you can see the enemy, if attacked from the rear you would have died whether the opponent was cloaked or not. With all the scouts around you need to stick toge...

1528. Scout Registry / Killboard - in General Discussions [original thread]
So I have a question about countering scouts. On the scanning table it appears very hard to passively scan cloaked scouts, leading me to believe it is a worthless endeavour unless you are a cal scout. Then I watched one of CEO pyrex's vids where ...

1530. Need Advice: Catching cloaks with Medium frames - in General Discussions [original thread]
Played a few games with my heavy alt, had another heavy with me and a min logi. We all stuck together, keeping an eye out for that blue shimmer, whenever any of us spotted it we called out and all sprayed in the scout's general area. Was very effe...

1531. Brick-Tanked Scouts with Cloaks - in General Discussions [original thread]
Maybe they should add stacking penalties to plates like damage mods. That way people would be discouraged from fitting more than two plates. Plates have high hp values as they are designed to be used with armor repairers. Trouble is people bypass ...

1532. Ranking order of best looking (NEW) driopsuits - in General Discussions [original thread]
I love the Minmatar and Gallente heavies. I would put them first and second, then the scouts. I would have to see the amarr scout in game a bit more before I could decide on it, they are quite rare.

1533. Scout Registry / Killboard - in General Discussions [original thread]
Finally feel like I'm getting the hang of 1.8 scout play, well at least cqc socket shotgun combat. Managed 41-6 today in a domination match, which I think is my highest ever score (I know, I'm not that good), in my advanced minmatar scout. Was g...

1534. CPM cloak discussion - in General Discussions [original thread]
I posted this idea in King Barbar's thread about cloaked scouts. All the infantry balance issues seem to revolve around brick tanking. If CCP implemented a "damage-mod-style" stacking penalty (100%-87%-~45% efficiency) on armor plates it would b...

1535. Change Scout cloak fitting bonus from 15 to 10 % - in General Discussions [original thread]
I have thought about this, and maybe you are right that there should be a little more penalty for scouts to fit cloaks. I think it's too early to tell though. Cloaks really aren't as good as people think. It would be very easy to make them not wor...

1536. Changing Scout bonus to benefit lower SP players - in General Discussions [original thread]
I agree, cloaks should be available to new scouts. I brought this issue up when the new scout skills were first announced. I understand that new scouts need to learn to be stealthy but having a cloak won't change that, you still die if you aren't ...

Yes, because a logi never gunned down 6 people in 20 seconds with a combat rifle.

1538. CPM cloak discussion - in General Discussions [original thread]
I quite like the idea of flux grenades disabling cloaks. Can't imagine it having much real effect on the game but it's a nice idea and would be great if it appeases some of the QQ. In general I think it's probably best to wait and see what chang...

1539. CPM cloak discussion - in General Discussions [original thread]
Cloaks are nowhere near as powerful as I thought they would be and as a result I think they are quite balanced. Initially I used one assuming I would be able to move past people's field of vision without being spotted, but it doesn't work like tha...

Sounds like good advice. It's just a shame you can't use a cloak without level 4/5 in a scout suit. Not to mention the fact it's very harsh on new players wanting to be a scout.
