So I have been thinking for a while about this suit called the saboteur. My depiction of it is a light suit that has a lot of equipment slots for; RE, uplinks, scanners, PE, etc.
I have used my logi suits for this role, but they don't quite cut it, speed/stamina wise. Also the scan precision would be lower, allowing for more a more sneaky approach to things.
Also either only 1 light weapon or 2 sidearms... |

LOL mini commando and i love your idea i would take active scanner with nanohives but with all that equipment it has to have lower high module slots and low module slots because of its power |

Like the idea, but I'm going to bring up that again lower profile signature is pointless because everyone's passive scan radius is a measly 10 meters. |

After the 1.4 update active scanners will come into play a lot more, because friendly passive scans wont be visible to you, only active scans. |

I've been thinking about this idea a lot lately and think it could be really cool. But I think in order to do it right, you'd need to add a new dropsuit slot called "Disruptive Equipment" or something like that, basically just things that are deployable like equipment, but cause debuffs to enemies as opposed to support benefits like the current equipment. And also maybe rename the current equipment "Support Equipment" or something. And then just make it so the Saboteur has a few Disruptive Equipment slots, and maybe just a sidearm (or two).
Actually this could maybe add some more variations to the existing suits too. Like maybe the Amarr Assualt gets one Support Equipment slot, but the Minmitar Assualt gets one Disruptive Equipment slot. Could be neat. |

Yea me neither 
Could be my increased precision or something, idk.
@OP:
Adding new EWAR and giving a new type of equipment (disruptive, as you mentioned) could be an interesting idea. RE would have to go in the "disruptive" category since it isn't boosting you up but bringing the enemy down (six feet under).
The G-Scout would keep it's S-equipment while the M-Scout would me switched to D-Equipment (it's more aggressive then the G-Scout) or both could now have one slot for each.
I see possibilities

Uh, just for the record I'm not the OP. But yea, I figured RE's and proxies would be D-Equipment. Others might include things like Radar Jammer (self-explanatory), Module Dampener (reduce dropsuit module efficacy), CPU Disrupter (hack dropsuit onboard computers and slow them down, resulting in slowed movement speed), etc. |

But that's the thing, passive scans won't even be visible to you because 10 meters is worthless. Look, I'm happy that they improved active scanners, that is great! But I sure hope CCP doesn't think that because of that they have fixed scanning in general, because passive scanning still needs to be reworked. |
