I would like to adress fall damage on scouts.
Two things I have noticed:
It takes quite a while to activate inertia damps on scouts, which would seem ok if it weren't for the other point.
Scouts take a lot of fall damage, which seems illogical as they are lighter, which would make them impact the ground with less force, and damaging them less. I have died twice on the new Gallentean Outpost, where objective B usually is, by falling off the 2nd floor, both times i lost about 70-90 HP. The thing that bothers me is that they take too much damage for their size.
The biggest threat to my scout is everything.

I've always found it silly how vulnerable scouts are to gravity

My biggest pet peeve with scouts.
Madness is the emergency exit. You can just step outside, and close the door on all those dreadful things that happened.

My Minja took exactly 158 from his drop. Not sure what was worse. Flying towards the ground without the "x" option or how fast the life bar was going red after impact.

Falling and getting stuck in a crack or wedge in the ground. I know once I receive the fall damage its not much longer after that I will die very soon.

I was about to write a rant about this, but instead i decided to collect some data so we had some numbers to work with. Gotta love research that consists of jumping off tall structures onto hard surfaces =P
For my tests i walked off one of the second floor 'beams' at the new gallente outpost. By walking off i ensured that jump height was not a factor.
My scout suit (gallente G-I) took between 75-76 damage per fall. To compare i did several falls in a Sentinel A-I suit, its damage received was 83 each time.
So on the up side, the scout took roughly 10% less damage falling than a heavy.
Thats where the good news ends. When you compare the numbers to the two suits relative health pools, the true story is shown. The 83 damage the heavy suit took was 6.9% of its 1200hp pool, negligible. For the scout though, the 76 damage was 27.7% of its health pool. Not negligible.
Fall damage needs to drop significantly for scouts.
