The active scanner make it dam impossible to flank a team, and not even a scout can avoid the scan without lossing all of it low slot to dampers( which we need for other scout things). What the point of making a class about stealth and recon if you make something that is too good of counter it 15 sec scan with a 5 sec cooldown make it a pain.
But you know some people in this game only care about themselves and go EZ. Hope they get bored and leave
and CCP make a lot of EZ mode stuff: AR, Swarm launcher, Core locus Grenade, CALLOGI, OP MEDIC, Logi LAV.
Why do I like the Beta
more than the real game:(

Level 3 scout + level 3 damp skill + 1 enhanced damp beats all but 1 scanner. To beat that requires 5 in both skills and 2 modules but I rarely see that one used due to fitting and cool down.

2 complex damps on any medium suit are practically unscannable.

Scout level 3 and dampener level 4 is enough to passivle avoid all advanced scanners which are the most common scanners used. I fint it acceptable that a module slot for the scout is needed to avoid the proto scanners. Personally I run away when I see the message you have been scanned, I have no intention of facing a proto squad in my advanced scout suit.
You can irritate the proto squad by spamming your own scanner at them, they will get you have been scanned message blinking all the time. You cannot kill them but you can scan them 
I am working towards proto scout which I intend to make invisible to all but the flux proto scanner. |

What do you mean? 2 complex on medium is well below 28 db so it beats all but one scanner.

When it works, it works.
There's no point in arguing how, but rather why and what can we do to fix it.
Uplinks will forever be the way they are. I have no issues with them and this is exactly how they were made although you could always limit it to a certain amount on the field.
Scanners are exactly what they are. Even if they become limited, and if they still do their job, the scanners will be spammed. In PC it's all about what you bring to the field and you only need one or two to really deal with it.
Grenade spam is something else though. Maybe I am highly bias but they're taking the place of mass drivers when you can just sit behind nanohives and spam them for a while. At least limit the nanohives resupplying of grenades. |

Agreed with the caveat that a solid understanding of the profile and scanning system is important in leverage situational awareness.

CCP found that AR users were having trouble not having their targets lit up for them.
And lo, the active scanner was born.
