I would try to take your word for it, but you're using that with a heavy fit and I'm mostly a scout. heavies are usually allowed the time (and hps) to use something that would be rather unwieldy to a lesser armored class...
Highlighted your real problem. |

No.
It's simply that scouts are subpar. |

No. It's simply that scouts are subpar. Geez what's with the scout hate o,0? then again scouts are usually for the twitchy relflex players that are used to thinking rather than plain shooting? since you wanna go the big headed route with this...
I don't hate the scouts - I feel sorry for them. I would hate to die in three shots - and they're only slightly faster than assaults. |

Well i feel sorry for heavies sometimes...they're like giant cute beached whales...slowly dying and unable to avoid it or run no matter how hard they try...and wrong, you apparently dont know what kinetics are >: D Also if you're a heavy all the time..I'm certain you know what a CRG shotgun is by now ya?
Kincats can be utilised by medium frames as well, you realise? And better, because they have more slots and fitting resources.
The base speed difference between a scout and a medium frame is small. If you're setting up a medium frame for speed, it can outrun most scouts whilst sprinting while tanking a lot better.
I don't play heavy, and the last time I was shotgunned was probably Chromosome, where they were actually decent. |

See i've thought about that and have done it on occassion...but, when i have a medium frame the last thing i wanna do is fill that with kinetics when i can just use more armor plating, and the scout suit is still faster overall if the 2-3 modules are fitted with kinetics...and i think the scouts also still have more stanima and the movement penalties are less harsh than trying to speed up a medium, you strike a good point, but i'd just rather let my scout be a scout, never try putting a race engine in a sedan yknow? but to each his own on that. more slots are great, but isnt always better. And what you have something against shotguns to? what DO you use then? WHAT is cool with you? what do you like?
Filling your lows with kincats on a medium frame may well be the last thing you want to do, but it can easily allow a medium frame to outperform a scout at speed tanking, especially combined with a shield tank. It'll be faster and more tanky than a scout fitted similarly.
Much as I'd like to use scouts as scouts and medium frames as medium frames, that doesn't change what can be done with the slot layouts of the medium frames.
You continue to misunderstand me. I have nothing against scouts, nothing against shotguns. I simply believe that they're not as good as they should be. |
