10 + 50% (range amplification skill) = 15
15 + 50% (gallente scout skill) = 22.5
After buff
16 + 50% (range amplification skill) = 24
24 + 50% (gallente scout skill) = 36
Now play with a single amplification modules.
22.5 + 45% = 32.
or....
36 + 45% = 52.
Behold, the power of multiplication. |

When a target scans me, you know what I start thinking?
"Oh great, there's somebody nearby. Time to start watching my back."
Yea, it's good for your squad but it's terrible for solo work. |

Yes! Someone willing to do math. I was just about to make a post about this.
Now go play with more amplification modules and see what happens. Also, you are not limited to a single angle of scan, unlike the active scanner.
Also, with a single dampener, no active scanner will ever be able to find you. Single angle of scan? You know you can just spin around when scanning, right?
You have to hold the scanner over a target for an allotment of time before they will "flash" and stay active.
How long you have to hold it over them depends on their profile and your precision.
If all you do is spin the scanner, you will not catch everything. |

He has what we in the Biz like to call, "Forum tourettes."
Even though he is speaking out about something he has never played with he thinks he's an authority on the subject.
He's even voiced his utterly, incomprehensibly wrong opinions f the Gallente Scout in corp chat. . .
If anything, he could have looked to his corp-mate, Appia Vibbia, and see how she does as far as KDR goes in PC to see that a Scout without any Kinetic Catalyzers AND armor plates is incapable of being in a combat role, and you better put an armor repairer too. 1 slot left... it is going to be more armor, not a range amplifier.
Playing with a passive scan based suit can be fun in public matches, but is worthless in PC.
and it is nearly useless on any map outside a city.
Himiko seriously needs to shut the **** up and stay out of topics about Scouts.

He asked what the benefit was to the buff, I named it.
If you want to take personal offense to math and facts, you are welcome to.
I never said it was viable, or easy to use effectively. I said what the difference would be, and how it could potentially be used.
Not sure why you're so hostile over the fact. Kinda seems like you're attacking me based on your hatred for your own dropsuit. |
