1: Sniping can be done better by a medium suit
2: Winmatar Assaults can do nova knifing far easier
3: Scanning can be done better by logi's (Gallente Scouts really get hurt by this, as that's their EWAR)
4: speed can be matched or passed by a medium suit, as it's a very small difference (and they got more slots and CPU/PG, so they could fit better weapons at the same time).
5: Read #4 about the stamina
Now, What was that? |

Now, What was that? Meh. If you have prototype, you can surpass all my the scanning. And I snipe better because It says "SCAN ATTEMPT PREVENTED." You can know if someone is coming if you see that, and people tend to appear on your radar a lot more than medium suits.
Someone would have a far easier time counter sniping you than the opposite way around, scanner or not. Plus, you would need PROTO dampeners on a PROTO suit to avoid a PROTO scanner, so then an even easier time. Oh, and this is for only Gallente scouts. Amarr, Caldari, and Winmatar Scouts are screwed. |

In order to beat a proto scanner my minmatar scout has to give up it's one available low slot that isn't reserved for a cpu extender due to the complete lack of CPU the suit has. This in turn makes me about as slow as my minmatar assault. Problem 2 which leads to problem 1.
Those aren't PROTO though...... Advanced, yea, but PROTO? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA no. |

-This game to run at 60 FPS so they can have their Uprising 1.0 speed back
-The shotgun and nova knives to have better hit detection
-A second equipment slot with more CPU/PG
-Cloaking
-More non combat roles on the battlefield like tackling, sabotage, and additional EWAR
Don't forget about passive scanners actually being useful  |

Minmatar logi makes a good scout, but both the logi and assault play like scout hybrids with their low EHP in exchange for speed. Pretty much working as intended. Scouts have very minimal gains for the EHP they give up. This has nothing to do with logisitcs suits.
Agreed. All they need is better base stats (don't touch eHP), and another eq. slot, and cloaking, as well as EWAR (with bonuses for the racial preferred EWAR), then they'll be perfect. |

Scanning is EWAR by the way |
