Croned 541	Posted - 2013.11.25 13:50:00 - [1] - Quote Ran a Mini Logi with triple scanners yesterday in a full saquad while playing domination, and I got over 1000 WP just from scanning. Needless to say, the enemy team was visible the entire time, and they all had a "You Have Been Scanned" notification every two seconds. The cooldown on scanners are individual to each unit, so enjoy this incredibly easy way to rake in WP that is also incredibly cheap. Son of a plasma cannon!

Saoa Scum Judge Mercenaries 15	Posted - 2013.11.25 14:02:00 - [3] - Quote So how does this actually work... im using one complex dampener and 99% of the time i get the message "Scan has been prevented" Do the scannerguy get some kind of hint that there is still somebody there?... They sure seem surprised when i reveal myself If they dont i really dont see how the scanner can be "so-called" overpowered... since its rather easy to still stay hidden

They're a waste of fitting room and ISK otherwise. If someone evaded a scan, the scanner is told that there was "Some Margin of Error". Son of a plasma cannon!

I very rarely see this message running as scout these days, too few are using the focus proto scanner, I miss the "you have been scanned" message. It used to get the adrenaline pumping, now no one notices me

Actually I believe if you dampen to something like below 3dB of the scanner they get no message at all "...where Bylothgar the Ill-postured was made King of the People With No Name But Decent Footwear"

Actually I believe if you dampen to something like below 3dB of the scanner they get no message at all I have absolutely no proof of this, but I think it's something like that. I use advanced quantum scanner and when I scan I get the 'no margin for error' - message but second later I lay dead on the ground from shotgun scout. Smeehf.

Though my scout needs some work I have certainly surprised a fair few people. Also several times our team has cornered a scout, I put a scan out and got NO MARGIN OF ERROR Lies! lol "...where Bylothgar the Ill-postured was made King of the People With No Name But Decent Footwear"

Yep, and this kind of crap is why they are getting multiple orbitals in a row too. "It's made with bits of real Gallente. So you know it's good." -GÇö Brian Fantana paraphrased
