So we all know Scout LAV's are ****. So I got a few ideas on how to make them better:
First is the Probe Launcher How it works is it sends out 8 probes from a probe launcher from somewhere on the LAV. They launch form a pre-designed scanning pattern (could have designs for the pilot per fit for different kinds of situations, or ingame), and they scan a area with the power of say a adv. to PROTO active scanner depending on SLAV level, over a very large area. Now, after a set time, they will return to the SLAV, and the launcher will go on cooldown. Also, the probes could be shot down, making the cooldown longer, and if all get shot down, it gets double cooldown time. Also, if the SLAV goes out of a set range, the Probes will return to it. Lastly, if the SLAV dies, the Probes will go offline, and crash into the ground.
Next idea is a built-in EMP. What it does is send a fairly large blast around it, downing any dropsuit shield, does lots of shield damage to vehicles and installiations, and kills off any equipment. It also screws with the tacnets of the affected for a short period of time, as well as slows down everything that moves, and screws with any tracking devices, explosives in flight, as well as doesn't allow anything device that tracks to lock and track it. As a negative, it slows down the SLAV when used, and as a very high cooldown to prevent abuse.
My last idea is just a basic one: raise the base eHP by 400, and the speed by 25 km/hr. That is all.

Honestly, I think all of the T II vehicles, and even the T II dropsuits needs something built in to be different; not just a upgrade. |

I see the Scout LAV as a, well Scout vehicle. I also see it as a pretty good EWAR vehicle. |

Also, nitro is an already existing module, so that would be pointless to put onto it. Yes, I know about the Logi DS, and yes I think it should have something different. |

-Much higher base speed and acceleration
-Slightly more defenses (either base or PG/CPU for fitting) so they're not one-shotted by basic AV nades (seriously, they're +100k isk each, and almost impossible to fit effectively (and tanks complain...))
-Skill should greatly increase: turret tracking, damage, and/or range either by skills or innately (by 50-75%, the increased fire power is kept in check by it's pathetic defenses)
-Add a stock equipment module (probably an active scanner, cloaking device, fuel injector, etc).
Done, it's fixed.
Like I said before, it shouldn't get a stock module, as that's not faor. The LLV could get any of those things while still being more tanky. Also greatly increasing the speed would make it into a Murder Taxi. |
