Has anyone sat down and compared jump heights of scouts? I keep meanining to do this, but I have so many other things to test, I keep forgetting ths one :-/
It seems to me that, along with the slightly faster walk and sprint speed, minmatar scouts/light suits have a slightly higher jump height than gallente scouts.
In addition to some places where this simply gives convenience... this also makes certain strategies effective more effective for minmatar. For example, the "jump before attack" on things like knives, can be great, if your body clears the normal crosshair target height. But its been seeming to me lately, that airborne gallente scout feet tend to get caught in the incoming bullet hail more than my minmatar suit. |

interesting. I presumed it was linked to walking speed. Can anyone confirm or deny, that adding kincats for sprint speed, helps jump height as well?
it would rather make sense, since jump uses stamina.and would make me feel a bit better about sticking to gallente :)

Waaaait.. so its NOT racial?
can you give us details on how you make your fittings different for your gk0? Do you add more stamina, and/or more kinetics to it?
It really wouldnt make sense to me if the gk.0 could jump higher than other gallente scout suits. It has the same walk speed, the same sprint speed.. surely that indicates that its "legs" are the same strength, when unaltered

did you try the same thing though with the Gallente suit? because the two racial suits may have different jump heights but they also increase as the suit one uses becomes more advanced. so naturally the standard frame for both Minmatar and Gallente don't jump as high as the advanced or prototype. but that is a different subject than Min vs Gal.
Interesting theory. Would be a neat undocumented bonus for advanced suits. However, it always seemed to me that my MILITIA minmatar light , could jump better than my gallente scout (basic), because I had trouble clearing certain rails in gallente, but not witih minmatar.
(The rails all around that circle thing, that are sunken, with stairs out of certain points, but rails around the other parts. ) (that 'socket' sometimes has an objective in the center area?)
Unfortunately, I didnt find one of those, that was conveniently near a supply depot, to nicely compare
