And increase nk damage on proficiency to 5% to compensate the armor buff, knives should be ohk on any suit with a charge strike

Everyone has wondered, what an when will ccp give us that will be enough to buff us an make a scout a scout.
Well here's some quick ideas since I ve made an also commented on at least a hundred pages so I'm not gonna repeat major details I ve already typed before with page long descriptions.

1 Cpu pg buff
2 Low/high slot
3 New equipment slot
4 40db
5 Increased speed, stamina , scanning, range / presicion
6 Less fall damage
7 The ability to maybe move one slot to anywhere on the suit.
8 Redline immunity
9 Cloaking only for scouts

Not asking for all of this but enough of these to at least differentiate the scout.
K debate!

How about no

What do you mean no? They always could ohk anything, an now it's either hit detection or the armor buff, how much damage you think they do now with a mini scout an pro five?
I bet it's more than you think + headstrike means goodnight!

How about no

Theyve never been able to OHK any suit, keep the damage as is

What are you talking about bro, charge hit they always have for me untill lately

Should be about what they should take away from other suits.

Medium and heavies:

No jumping high or far enough not to get hit.

No strafing fast enough not to get shot.

No turning fast enough to hit a scout.

No not being picked up immediately on scanner.


Make the scout the only suit that can dance, disappear and ninja stuff.

Took the words right outta my keyboard.

@OP: Appreciate the sentiment.

Biotics , armor repper or to be able to get below the focused scanner.
Or maybe thats just me?

With my suit and knife Prof Lev 2 my knives do 1200+ fully charged. Now with the way this game has gone with the armor buff and ehp stacking cause of ttk is so fast I think nova knives need a slight buff. BUT thats just my opinion.

And yea to more speed, 40b and scan stuff, cpu/pg, extra low would be nice would rather have that than another equipment slot, and less or no fall damage.

why the hell do people want minni scouts to get an extra low slot...... I want an extra high slot for damage mods or shield tanking purposes

I try my best...

In the end we want the scout to have a nice role to play. I don't want OPness.

Cpu pg buff
prefer massive 'recon' equipment grid reduction - especially if getting two equip slots

Low/high slot
low perhaps - high is more for tank and gank - only the latter of which a scout might do

New equipment slot
on the one hand it seems a bit simplistic - but if we get the 'recon' grid reduction....

40db
simplest solution to scouts not being able to be stealthy - in lieu of more ewar options

Increased speed, stamina , scanning, range / precision
a little maybe, scan range definitely (for everyone - just more for scouts) I heard scout speed previously broke the game - I don't get why some are crying for it to come back

Less fall damage
NO fall damage full stop - no dampened fall delay either (give me my ninja run back CCP...)

The ability to maybe move one slot to anywhere on the suit.
??? Slots need sorting out though - that's an infantry wide thing though (and Tiercide)

Redline immunity
not necessary - but I can see the reasoning

Cloaking only for scouts
again - 'recon grid reduction' for scouts...

As is kin cat and cardreg are a must. To be able to take advantage of some electronic superiority mods mini scout needs an extra low slot.

why the hell do people want minni scouts to get an extra low slot...... I want an extra high slot for damage mods or shield tanking purposes

200x25%=250
250x15% proficiency 5=287
^uncharged blade
Double uncharged 575

Charged =1150
The percentages as far as I kno don't stack
They don't for profile damp that's why a mini scout can't beat 15 db

If they stacked you would get less
200x40%= 280
Both uncharged =560
Charged=1120

How did you calculate pro two has more?

+2 m/s to sprint speed is ridiculous. This would take the Gallente scout from 8.01 to 10.01 which is precisely what 2 complex kinetic catalyzers will do. Imagine adding the two kinetics to a base 10 m/s suit to get something like 12.5ish. I'm sorry, I know we're all just brainstorming here. I just thought I'd let people know what that figure looks like in practice.

2 equipment slots and a bonus for using scanners imo.

SCOUT ARE MADE FOR RECO NOT FOR KILL !!!!!!

So it's pretty obvious.....

5% reduction cost to Active scanner per level (Pg/CPU).

Radar on scout frame buffed (Less Db so less possibility to be (active/passive) scanned.
Bigger Passive Scanner.
Cloaking Exclusive to scout.
Only unit that share his passive scanner with Squad units.



They don't need Ehp or damage because they're not intended as KillUnits.

BUT they should receive 5points per Ennemy PassiveScan killed.
25 per active scan killed.
So making points without killing.

Some little box with laser that must be throw (Like Claymores but without explosives).
And when an ennemy "break" the laser he's spotted on everybody's map.
10 points per ennemy spotted as this way.
These can be sticked on wall. (On an objective per exemple or a simple passage.)
The laser got 15Meters of range. (But is unidirectionnal.)

but scouts need SPEED as their defense (same as stealth) a logi WILL do better at a scouts job with 2 diff active scanners on (a quantum and a faster one) also scouts, at least the mimitar is also supposed to be a ninja hence "assassinations".

also, right now all you need in scanning is a logi with 2 diff active scanners, oh w8 I said that!
scoutings pretty useless if a logi can do it better at 150M! scouts need more than just recon buffs, such as speed, stealth, and assassination weapons (Nova knives, Shotgun).

also, just no that'll just be giving CCP 6 months working on all that equipment just to be 100% useless!

I agree with most things you suggested.

Here are a few of my own:

What would go a long way is what they had in Chromosome - larger inherent passive scanner. As of now it's not working much at all. As a scout I would like to be able to see past walls if I am paper thin w/o the active scanner (maybe 20-30 meters), obviously w/o relaying this info to the rest of the squad -

And i think you just want to cry without listenning and "cry i'm not invicible and fast thats not just T_T".....

The Recon should NOT get more speed or Ehp that's all.
If we did that everybody could make quick assasinations from everywhere it will be chaos and d+¬sequilibrated.
And really ood scouts can already did it in fact.

Maybe it will be good for scouts but we must BALANCE and not favorite a single side with too much buff or nerf.




As i Said the recon should have Bigger pasive scanner AND it's the only that can share with his squad.
I think you don't uderstand how much this will be powerful !
Just run in a zone and 50% of ennemies are scanned without any scanner just by running.

The active scanner with reduction of cost could be "obligatoiry" for an good scout without too much sacrifice.
And is used as Anti-Drop uplinks or anti explosives.
Or to cover a big zone fast without risk.

And they will be the unique units than makes points with passive scanner.
As i said scouts are not for kill simply because they are SCOUUUUUTS. (Maybe snipers are...ok)
So NO you will not get big Kills BUT you will get greats points.
If you only wants KIIIIIILS then don't take scouts.

I dont use Kincats....... never found they were needed, direct spee never did nothing for me. I use a repper and a cardio in my 2 lows.

How about no

an increase to CPU/PG

and an extra slot (H for gal & L for min)

I dont think we should get an extra equipment slot

Ment precision instead of range on the gallente since it can stack range in the low an it could use the precision in the extra high

I can see the logic, but I'd rather keep the range - passive scan precision just isn't that useful. I use the range to stay hidden from med/heavy units around corners and cover. Even if a scout is boosted radar range - that is still too close to really do anything - only really means anything against knives and shotguns.

I agree that not every scout needs be the same, but I still feel the Minnie knife bonus is as weird as the Minnie hacking bonus. Minnie should have gotten bonuses to Biotics module efficacy or fitting.
