DeadlyAztec11 Gallente Federation 2383	Posted - 2013.11.06 22:43:00 - [1] - Quote So I finally decided to use armor plates and a 3% damage mod(the most underrated module) on a Gallante scout fit. Surprisingly good. Pair it with a high damage weapon like the TAR or Scrambler Rifle and it is fairly easy to take down enemy suits by sneaking up and shooting them in the head. Also, Nova Knives for snipers, turret gunners, hackers, forge gunners, people waiting for vehicles and for finishing up when you run dry in your gun. Never new that tanking a scout suit was this viable. And it is better than assault suits for flanking (the main use) because the enemy won't notice you until you have already put 4 shots in the side of their skull. Also makes running away a very viable option. Heck, I'm getting the same if not BETTER results than with assault suits. Aztec is pleased Madness is the emergency exit. You can just step outside, and close the door on all those dreadful things that happened.

The lols we got and the rages we caused was epic. However our scouts aren't bricked, we sit behind the enemy lines in their back field ninjaing and defending from the shadows their home letters or securing CRU and installations.

You could shield tank a Gallente if you want, just don't expect it to work. The best is two complex armour plates paired with a complex kinetic catalyser and a complex rep. Then fit the weapon of choice. Of course, that's the scout gk.0, so have fun getting there!

You can usually survive the first shot and dodge to cover. It's also good paired with a tac AR for sharpshooter work and as a REAL commando with dual SMG fun. You can still jump around well enough in a light suit. If the pen is mightier than the sword, in a duel I'll let you have the pen! -Steven Wright

No one can scan you. And hell it's your suit, use it however you want. I would do a pro combo of 2 armor plates and 2 armor reps. easy. You'll survive engagements. and with this, you can succesfully disengage. My main role though is scouting with electronic and biotic mods.

Matticus Monk Ordus Trismegistus 680	Posted - 2013.11.10 08:17:00 - [41] - Quote Running armor plates on scouts seems like one of the only viable play style these days. It's definitely not something I've tried yet.... with the dearth of low slots on scout, and my aversion to running proto-gear, I typically find myself running kin/cats and maybe a range extender or armor repper. I need to skill into those damage mods though, sounds pretty useful.... To me a scout is all about stealth, awareness mobility and tactics. I'm not sure I could stand the reduction in mobility and awareness to run plates myself. Guys make it work though, from long range to the close in shotgunners running armor plates. Seems like a viable scout playstyle, so go wreck some medium frames gents! I'd say "for scouts honor", but we've only got devious, underhanded, bastardly, cunning on our side. That other crap get's in the way. And so while it's not for me, a brick tanked scout is the epitome of devious cunning, because it's definitely NOT what people expect!

Roner is a sick player and does well with this set up, as far as I have seen. You cannot expect to not adjust your suits to the current state of the game, and adjust it to what you believe is a 'scout'.

I rack up 3-4 Knive/melee kills, thenwhen I'm noticed I get out the TAR and grenades; I go loud. Then I ex-fill using parkour. Heck, I'm getting the same if not BETTER results than with assault suits. Aztec is pleased I am still using the tried and true tactic of going head on Murder trough the enemies, the more the merrier and find out where my limit is on a match per match basis :) My best game sits at 53 (1.6) and my suit has not changed since 1.4.

Surprisingly good. Pair it with a high damage weapon like the TAR or Scrambler Rifle and it is fairly easy to take down enemy suits by sneaking up and shooting them in the head. Also, Nova Knives for snipers, turret gunners, hackers, forge gunners, people waiting for vehicles and for finishing up when you run dry in your gun. Never new that tanking a scout suit was this viable. And it is better than assault suits for flanking (the main use) because the enemy won't notice you until you have already put 4 shots in the side of their skull. Also makes running away a very viable option. I'm doing this game like Splinter Cell. I work my way in carefully, gracefully, silently. Playing stealthy is healthy.

Shields are a joke an to make a minmatar a assault fit its too slow, two plates or plate an rep or plate an speed with no rep, no scan range like a gallente an if u use damage u lose a shield, 500 HP on a gallente 414 armor is much stronger an faster than a minmatar with split HP . My gallente can run like 8.800 400 armor my min with 250 armor runs 7.80 I want a respec lol
