Assaults can do that just as well. Possibly even better since you can stick on a proto weapon *and* get much more EHP. You'll move a little slower, but more slots and PG&CPU means you can compensate for that while still ending up better off than the scout.
Sig radius only matters if someone points a scanner at you. This, in my experience, hardly ever happens when flanking anyway. |

The problem is that they gain slightly less additional slots than they should and do so without gaining enough PG/CPU to make use of them like any other class can.
I always felt scout suits were one tier behind... so standard were comparable to militia assaults/logis, advanced to standards and proto to advanced... and then they removed one slot from proto light/scouts :P. |

Actually, unless you max stealth tank yourself, which you can do just as well with a Proto Assault as you can with a Scout (still with more EHP), high-end Scanners will light you up regardless. Sig radius only matters if you're within 10 - 15m of a target WITHOUT a Scanner.
True, but a lot of people seem to be running with the lower ones, my scout isn't always detected even though I have no dampeners.
As for the passive that 10-15m appears to be mostly limited to a ~60-¦ cone in front of you so it's even more useless :P... and consequently being able to hide from it becomes equally useless. |
