I started speccing into Profile dampeners, since im so fed up with Active scanners leading to gang r4pes ....
So i have something that might be considered noobish:
''Do profile dampeners HAVE stacking penalties?''
I noticed the Description does NOT say anything about this and i wanted to know if CCP just trolled me AGAIN with the descriptions, or Profile dampeners are atually decent and not trash.

to be honest, i dont use profile damps, but when i get my respec in 1.7, i definitely will.
i know for a fact that scout V and one complex dampener will get you under any scanner except for the 15 dB one.
tried to help as much as i could, but i'm a minnie scout slowly moving into gallente scout. |

Everything percentage based has a stacking penalty. It's kind of up in the air whether it's per attribute or per module though. |

Yes, there is a stacking penalty. The description doesn't mention it, but it exists. Do keep in mind though that the stacking penalty only applies to the modules. So don't apply any penalty to bonus from the scout suit, the bonus from the actual dampening skill, or the first module. Penalties start with the second modules. |

1-So overall, Profile dampeners are STill crap.
2-Guessit was not THAT much of a noobish question
3-CCP , you LIED to me again.You did't tell me they had stacking penalties and sold them to me like a fresh sandwich from Subways when it was a week old mcdonalds burger.

Something that is pretty nice it. Profile damps lvl 5 = standard active scanner can not find your logi or assault suit, no modules needed. |

I can't be bothered to do the math exactly but I believe what you want is a minimum of dp skill to level 3 + 1 enhanced and 1 basic dampener.
Or get it to level 5 and use a complex |

orders who is giving orders? I'm asking not telling telling would be foolish as there would be no way for me to enforce it. asking on the other hand is compleatly different and entirely feasible that someone would listen to a request from a stranger over the internet. please get your words right. |

I have a forum section on Synergy or Eon Enjin site somewhere clearing up misconceptions in DUST.
I've asked them several SIGINT related questions and I'm most certainly sure profile dampening does not have a stacking penalty.
I posted Unicorn's reply somewhere in the forums as well but dear god that was 4 months ago, good luck.
I can tell you with 100% certainty KingCheckmate is that if you have your Profile dampening at level 5 you can block basic level handhelds scanners without a module.
(which is actually quite nice)
(You can also block all active scanners except for the 16 dB one with prof. at lvl 5 and one STD AND COM P.D. or two enhanced P.D. )
P.S. Quick helpful piece of info.

Sorry but how usefull are dampeners when you still spawn next to your team on ambush which are getting picked up by scanners anyway and the whole enemy team is heading your way regardless what you do. |

TY My understanding, though I might be wrong...
Dampening level 5 + 2x Standard dampeners, on an Assault suit:
Suit Profile: 50dB
Skill bonus: - 5x2% = -10% = 5dB
Profile after skill: 50dB - 5dB = 45dB
1st Standard dampener = -15% = 15% of 45dB = 6,75dB
Profile after 1st dampener: 45dB - 6,75dB = 38,25dB
2nd Standard dampener = -15% = 15% of 38,25dB = 5,7375dB
Profile after 1nd dampener: 38,25dB - 5,7375dB = 33,0125
Again, this is my understanding, and may be flawed.

According to the game and the wiki, dampeners do not have any stacking penalty, like range amplifiers and code breakers. |

That's what I thought too... but sadly, the game code is the ultimate tell all and I have almost no doubt that they have stacking penalties.
I'm probably going to start organizing something in the near future for doing tests like these... |
