I'm curious, if I stack them and I'm sniping, will people see my name if they look at me? An If I pass by someone quickly, do I not appear on the map? Just need to know if it is worth it for shotgunning because that's what I usually run. |

Just need to know if it is worth it for shotgunning because that's what I usually run. Depends what suit your running, assault or logi has a 50db scout has 45 Pd level 5 brings a medium suit to 45 passively My racial scout plus pd 5 brings my base signature to 30 because of the 25% scout bonus an the 10% pd passive bonus. A med 4 low frame can beat 15 db . If you figure out the math an compare it to the scanner you should be ok, an yes it's almost mandatory lately especially with 1.5 bringing scanning points, everyone will probably run adv an proto scans since they stay lit the longest. 28 db a scout shotguner like myself I can beat the proto scanner an do quit well being sneaky I suggest you invest to lv 5 in pd since the games gonna change an you ll need it I don't care about scanners. I'm talking about combat. If I flank 8 or so people, will I be able to run around not being seen on their radar, and will they have to aim/look directly at me to see my health/name? |

Well, I was wondering to run an enhanced dampener and an enhanced kin cat for a Caldari Assault Shotgun/Nova Knives fitting. It's a really run fit, so I was wondering if the 20% less profile is worth it. |

How many times do I have to post this. I don't I've a **** about active scanners. If I'm using it for combat how effective will it be. Is it that hard to understand? Stop saying "active scanner" or "you have been scanned." I honestly don't care about that. I want to know it it's worth it to replace a kin cat with an advanced dampener to save PG, and also of course if it's worth it. |

I want to know it it's worth it to replace a kin cat with an advanced dampener to save PG, and also of course if it's worth it. I'm at my computer with my spreadsheet so here's the breakdown comparing passive only. You mentioned a 29 dB profile earlier so this is what I think it takes to detect you passively. A Scout or Logistics with Precision Enhancement 3 and 3 x Advanced Precision Enhancers. A Scout or Logistics with PE 5 and 2 x Complex Precision Enhancers. All other Medium Frame and Heavies require PE 5 and 3 x Complex to detect you. The best passive scan out there with no modules is a light frame with PE 5 for 40.5 dB. How effective is 29 dB? And when you say detect, do you mean like if I fire it won't show the location I am at? Or like it won't show me on their radar even if I'm like 20m away? |
