They need a second EQ slot and more CPU/PG. |

I think it would help separate them from being bad Assaults, it makes them much more versatile. Apart from scanning the area, a scout job should be a secondary unit on the battlefield, a second EQ slot would allow them to be back-up Logis with a side-arm or more tactical Assaults with way less bulky being the trade off. |

CPU/PG are minority in comparison.
Second most important, Scanning Rework. This is actually in testing and may be applied to 1.4
CPU/PG would be nice but here's a fun fact: My militia Minmatar Light has 39 PG. That's quite a bit for MLT. It is not entirely necessary anyways we have the least slots but scouts are rather CPU hungry.
Bugs and glitches related to scouts are always a priority for scouts but it shouldn't be something to "look forward to".
If you want a second equipment slot, cast some votes for CCP to bring back the Type II scout
The problem with Type-2 is that without the side-arm you're just a bad Min with slightly more speed. Scouts need to retain their side-arm to get a niche from having a second EQ slot. |

The problem here becomes how much CPU and PG to give without making them a logi. Plus, entertain me here for a bit, scout is about speed, yet he can carry more equipment than an assault? In that case his speed should be reduced no? I don't hate the scout players, I think they need CPU / PG, but giving them a 2nd equipment slot might be too much imo.
The main question would be how much CPU/PG to give them of course. I actually wouldn't mind the second EQ slot being a race-only buff.
I don't see why it's speed should be reduced as a result. The Assault has way more bulk, while scouts will always be OHK'd by Core Grenades for example. The problem is that the Scout has nothing differentiate itself from the Assault. The slight movement speed is not enough to warrant using it over the Assault, everything the scout does as of now the Assault can do.
Heavy EQ slot - 0
Assault EQ slot - 1
Scout EQ slot - 2
Logi EQ slot - 3-4
I don't see the problem with this formula. Scout should have the versatility the second EQ slot brings, because they die to a light wind. They should be the glass cannons of Dust. |
