if you want a scout with four damage mods just get the Caldari assault.

Damage mod stacked caldari scout would be the most ridiculous, non-factor suit in the game.

when eWar comes out the Caldari will be a threat...or not. idk.

Don't get your hopes up, unless they buff the crap out of scout stats in general I realized that this scout could suck the big one, complex shield s or dam mods plus guns is gonna beat the $hit out of your CPU an pg leaving the low slot for only a CPU chip upgrade, which means, no armor or repair ever, no speed, no range mods, and it won't even beat a basic scanner even with level 5 profile dampening as a passive, not to mention good friggen luck using any equipment or grenades, this suit will be a sitting duck if it's stats aren't properly in order when it's made.

Keep in mind there's talk of buffing the current model scouts with anything from a second equip slot oh an extra high or low slot and a bit more CPU/pg, so if that comes into play then the Caldari might have more of a chance Juan you're thinking.

I already have a alt brewing on boosters for this fit, specializing in just nova knifes , and skilling up the suit to 5 all across the board with no points in suits or weapons, just a scanner an nk an remotes, making it so I have all passive abilities an the mods a scout needs, just running bpo an stacking tons of isk.

I hope they buff all the scouts by the time this suit drops, I believe it will be a force to be reckoned with if done propper, an a abomination if ccp flops

Does anybody have any idea what it's racial bonus could be?
I've sat here looking a modules and there are only 2 real scout modules available for high slots. Precision enhancers and damage modifiers. So given that you are trying to make a "scout fit", there would be no point in Shield Regens, because scouts have hyper regen anyways. The only viable fitting would be shield tank or damage mods. They'll have terrible scan abilities and no ability to speed tank, I can only see the Caldari Scout as a faster lesser Caldari Assault.

130 shields and 70 armor.

This very much this,



Hell no, one weapon bonus makes for crappy gameplay especially for a gallentean weapon on a caldari platform is about as low of a suggestion one can go. And shield regen delay is so short that the % means nothing, especially for the low eph of the scout.

You are very misinformed dear

Nova Knives = Caldari
Minmatar Scout gets + Melee damage, Nova Knives are sidearm!

Fixed...

Seriously though, I alway figured Caldari would have ewar bonuses - but there isn't much in the way of ewar - if Caldari get a bonus to active scanners, ill be kinda pissed because then they would be the only scout with an effective bonus to scouting.

I wouldn't be surprised if they have the Caldari scout recharge delay or sniper bonus though, since CCP aren't sure what scouts are for.

OR...and this may be a touch too logical here; when they release the other scouts they will fix all scouts at the same time - it makes sense they will balance new scouts against the new/improved version of current scouts.

Like I said - there seems to be too much logic for that to ever happen.

Also agree that if only one scout gets two slots, it'd be Amarr.

Pretty sure they don't
Nova Knives have a devastating melee attack but I do not think it applies to charge shots. So NK damage is only relevant to the Minni if you use it's melee function.

People use Min's and Nova's because of the min's speed
