Not even two lights. It's just that you have an AR as a pre-fit sidearm. Replacing it will force you to use a regular sidearm.

I think it's more a novelty item than anything else. Even the competition itself is a lop-sided challenge and shouldn't viewed as anything more than a fun thing to do. If you attempt the challenge you'll end up with less suits than you started with, unless you are some kind of uber-scout-god... if you don't do the challenge, you'll end up with more suits than those that attempted it seeing as the KDR is quite high for you to get another suit.

Militia Shield Extender as well For an additional factor, the Black Eagles suits have more native shield HP, faster stamina recover and faster walk and sprint speeds when compared to a standard Scout G/1. Slap some better grenades and shield extender and it could be decent.

Yo this suit is pretty nasty, not sure why all the hate. Can't tell you how many times I'm running with a shotty out and someone spots me and starts shooting from across the map. Now I can get behind cover and pull out my AR instead of my short ranged SMG. I like this if it's the direction scouts are going in. Though, I think I'd prefer more hp or an extra equipment slot over two light weapons. |

Seems sound in theory, if not for the fact that winning a fight often comes down to what's in one's Highs and Lows. I'd much prefer to run a fit that's decent in one role rather than poor in two roles. Consider the Commando. |

I do hope that this isn't the direction Scouts are going in. * Opens weapon wheel, clicks Cloak *
I'm not a dedicated scout, I just have fun using my Dren scout suit every now and then but I think anything they do would be an improvement. Two lights gives more versatility hopefully this would just be the standard version with the advanced and proto getting some low slots. But yeah I'd just give scouts HP if it were up to me. |

Ok I'm looking at the suit now, and it has some interesting facts.
One being that you can get rid of the shotgun and fit another light weapon. So it is possible to run a light weapon and AR.
The stats are slightly better in some areas then it's G/1 counterpart. Namely it has 30 more base shields and a 8.01 base sprint speed while the G/1 has a 7.63 so with max stats the black eagle has 8.41.
Not bad, but I doubt it will make up for the lack of lows. |

I actually like it. Especially as a nice challenge.
No lows? No problem. Just stick to hiding like a typical "scout" (gasp), pick your targets carefully (hello, other scouts!), use short and intermittent bursts with the 'Black Eagle' Assault Rifle to maintain control, and also camp objectives like I usually do.
In addition to what Cody Sietz said about the advantages of the suit, there is also the fact that this is NOT a base frame suit and therefore it still takes advantage of the Gallente Scout Dropsuit skill book bonus towards its scan range. I have level 5 with this scout suit plus level 3 Range Amplification which brings my overall scan range to at least 31 meters. That is just beyond the first circle of your mini map which means you can see farther than an objective can see (which is like 20 meters I think).
Also, I went into several matches with this suit and still managed to get 11 kills total and died only about 4 times overall with the suit.
CCP, please fix the Nova Knives. Thank you.

Sounds like a lot of the playerbase is afraid to run this suit because they might suck in it. Instead they will be hoarding them for when the open market arrives...where perceived value and relative scarcity determine price.
To recap:
Step 1. Hoard 50 copies of crappy suit that EVERYONE received Step 2. ???? Step 3. Profit
Sometimes I'm glad this isn't a thinking man's shooter...not sure the playerbase could take the hit. |

The "????" is "wait a few years".
When I played Ultima Online, players were awarded gifts for logging in around holidays. It was usually some token that could be used to redeem unique holiday-themed items. The tokens, and the items you could redeem them for, sold for decent prices when EVERYBODY had them, but a few years later when most of the tokens had been redeemed they were worth small fortunes.
The same thing happens in EVE with things like Snowballs/Snowball Launchers and those funky shuttles with the solar sails.
People will pay a ton of money for things everybody received when those things are used up and become rare. |

My Minnie is faster & my Gal scout is tougher than the Black Eagle. My biggest problem with this suit is the lack of a equipment slot, making it impossible to actually function as a scout. Everyone likes to argue that scouts aren't for frontline slaying, yet that's all this suit is good for. & Not particularly better than a dedicated slayer scout build. How about u take on the challenge and prove something instead of creating an excuse not to use a crappy suit. Participate.

I don't know why y'all are all whining. I love the suits, i love the challenge it holds. Seriously - this suit dies faster than any of the other scouts, so you have to be even more sneakier. I have been meaning to try out the shotgun, i love wielding that thing - i still love my sniper better. Of course, i wish it had the Low Slots but still, like Awesome said, slap a shield extender on it and it is golden as black.
Be sneaky, Be swift, Be precise. - the second motto of the scouts

It is true that the G/1 is more versatile than the 'Black Eagle' Scout suit, but there is something that the 'Black Eagle' suits offer that other suits of their class currently don't offer which is going commando because you have two light weapons on this scout suit.
But principally I think the point of this event is to see how well we can do with very little offered. All too often we have relied heavily on crutches provided by the low slots in order to win any given confrontation. These suits offer a real challenge in that you are now forced to fight without those crutches anytime you wear the suit. Imagine running around with a regular Scout G/1-Series suit without any of the low slots fitted and no equipment. Would you dare put your gun game to test with that setup? At the very least you have two light weapons to help you out.
Quote: Everyone likes to argue that scouts aren't for frontline slaying, yet that's all this suit is good for. & Not particularly better than a dedicated slayer scout build.
It depends on what they mean by "frontline slaying". If they mean running around in the open in front of your enemies, then 'DUH' of course you're going to die no matter what you have in that scout suit even if it was a GK.0. But if they mean strategically picking out and isolating your target before engaging and make sure you have the element of surprise, then I have to say those folks are wrong to assume that scouts aren't suppose to do that.
I have just completed a few more matches (with my alt of course) in this suit and I often find myself getting more kills and dying less as long as I am carefully picking my battles. I stay in the shadows, use cover, take advantage of the scan range I trained up on and the profile dampening via the Gallente Scout skill book (level 5), and make sure I go for the weakest-looking and more lonely target of any pack and I am good to go.
Of course, I don't go 15-2 with this suit because I am hiding so much that I rarely run into anyone. And when I do run into someone, it is because my scan range has helped me dictate the terms of the engagement and I used cover to my advantage. With this fit, I usually go at least 5-1 so that I can break even with my suit loss.
CCP, please fix the Nova Knives. Thank you.

The black Eagle is a beautiful suit and if hit detection and TTK was reasonable this would be a fun suit to run. I love the suit myself and cant wait to use them, but at the current time it only takes someone to breath on you as a scout and you die. I would just mothball them and wait for a another day.
Also CCP I have one question, how did you expect a scout suit in today's environment to kill 10 individuals so they could receive 1 of the same suit as a reward.

LOL, same, this is probably thy most hilarious event ever.
You can literally tell who plays scouts and who doesn't, because scout tactics just took a major IQ drop with the addition of these new try on scouts, my kdr has been in the 2.25-3.5 range all day because of all the scout fledglings. And this is with my bpo scout (no points into scout, waiting for cal scout) with duel pistols cleaning up the floor with ar/shotgun black eagles.

Incorrect. Damage mods affect the weapons, not the slots. Running a sidearm damage mod and 2 sidearms gives a bonus to both, not just the one in the sidearm slot. Much like both the Shotgun and the AR benefit from a damage mod.
Just o clarify a few things. The Black Eagle Scout suit was one of my favorite suits when we got them in Chromosome. They were pretty awesome. But they lack Customization. You are railroaded into speed tanking, as the suit has 2 low slots that cannon be modified. It secretly has 1 MLT Kinetic Catalyzerand 1 MLT Cardiac Regulator. It also has a hidden MLT Shield extender that you also can't change. (this is what the stats reflect in change from G/1-series to Black Eagle)
But if you used the Black Eagle Scout suits in Chromosome you'll notice 2 big differences: 1) TTK has increased and made the shotgun under-powered in CQC. (2) The base speed of the suit has deceased to reflect the change in Scot movement and Sprint Speeds from Chromosome to Uprising. (3) The Black Eagle Scout suits looked amzing before too, but without the warbarge you probably aren't paying that much attention anymore. It had a white base that the black armor plates went over. And the white bits were shiny! and the black parts were matte. . . hey F'ed it over in th appearance department. But Scout suits just looked better back then
The Black Eagle Scout Suit was badass. Now it is just another Scout suit, under-powered. Fortunately we can use the massive drop in KDR as a hopeful way to solidify the "DEV hugs" the scout suit was promise it would eventually get. More Speed and More damage more scanning! I might run a 701 armored Gallente Scout, but if speed tanking was viable and if the shotgun was a good CQC weapon I would go back to my speed suit in a heart-beat.

I had much fun with the Black Eagle suit scout suit yesterday, ended up with 20-8 in the few matches I exclusively ran in the suit. A few of the deaths was my own fault and a few from cooked core locus grenades. Has been lucky enough to avoid orbital strikes.
I love the combo with shotgun and AR, using the shotgun when sneaking up behind red dots and AR at longer distance when flanking. Will continue to use the suits for the event until I have lost 50 suits, and hopefully will get at least 25 in return. |

This is a g/1 (adv) suit: HS: Enhanced kinetic catalyzer (hidden) HS: Enhanced endurance module (hidden) LS: Enhanced shield extender (hidden) LS: Militia shield extender LW: Shotgun SW: Assault Rifle GN: Basic/ADV grenade EQ: none
Observations: -With zero in operation, my AR dispersion is terrible -Got incapacitated by the SG last night: 468 dmg at 7m (non-hs) -Complex precision mod in city environments is useful
Also, there are now SO many scouts: -trying to SG me from 15m while I back up and hose them down with SMG fire -running around in the open trying to play frontline ar assault in a scout suit -too afraid to flank with sg so the peek around corners with their ar to minimize incoming damage
Anyone scout skilled heavily into electronics, SG, and AR should have an easy time off it. Also, grenades are qty 2, reduced radius (1m less than std locus), and damage in between std and adv (450). |

Since Eve's recon class has a division between combat recon and force recon, I don't see why you can't include 1 of the 4 scouts to have two light weapon slots. While the idea got shut down when I suggested it a while ago perhaps the gal scout could be the black eagle scout but with a few low slots thrown in there (I think it has them actually but there in use). The tech 3 suits could have the more specialized scout commando / scout saboteur branch otherwise I don't see why having one T2 scout with two light weapons wouldn't hurt especially considering if they are going to branch out they need some resemblance of the function on the lower tech tiers.

I would have made the commando replace the assault suit but switched the speed around with the logis (and obviously rework the slot layouts).

I've said in a different post, but its the equivalent of giving everybody dropships and watching them crash after 3 seconds of flight, followed by people saying they suck. Dropship pilots would find this amusing due to it being their expertise on an area that is difficult, so in a similar way scouts find this amusing watching people crash and burn in the scout suit.
Its a very sardonic sense of humor to say the least.

Dropship pilots would find this amusing due to it being their expertise on an area that is difficult, so in a similar way scouts find this amusing watching people crash and burn in the scout suit. Its a very sardonic sense of humor to say the least.
It's freaking hilarious you mean.
Seriously, I've run scout since I came here in 1.1, and I'm having a field day "Welcoming" all these black eagles to scout life.
So many kills. I kinda feel dirty.
Welcome to scout world people. You can't rush someone like you used to. You better get used to cover and flanking. Playing a light frame like a med frame will get into a body bag faster than you can process the fact that you were shot at. If you don't get the kill in the first or second shot, RUN. You aren't meant to survive a firefight, just long enough to start an ambush and end it.

Get them alone and use speed and surroundings to your advantage. Why face off better armed, better equipped players head on or wrecklessly and blame the suit?
Ambush them when they are alone. Scout suits are all skill and taxtics. Im saving mine for when I dont suck : )
You are welcome for my leadership
