-Scout's noise is dampened. Jumping off a tiny ledge shouldn't give us away.

Actually, I like the idea of the cloak being something you can hold in your hand while running cloaked but then that will depend on how it's implemented. Do I have to keep it in my hand in order for the cloak to remain active or can I just swap to a weapon and keep the cloak active so long as I don't do any attacks such detonating REs or stabbing with the nova knives? I would very much prefer the latter if it's possible.

But yeah, here are my proposed stats for the cloak:

Standard Cloak (can fit on all suit classes and tiers)
CPU: 350
PG: 80
Cooldown Upon Deactivation: 30 Seconds
Cloak Stability Rating while Moving: 4 (moderate-high shimmer)
Cloak Stability Rating while Sprinting: 2 (high shimmer)
Bonuses when fitted on Scout: -99% reduction on CPU/PG usage and a +3 Cloak Stability Rating for moving and sprinting.

Covert Ops Cloak (can only be fitted on specialty Covert Ops Scout or Prototype Scout)
CPU: 350
PG: 80
Cooldown: 15 seconds
Cloak Stability Rating while Moving: 10 (no shimmer)
Cloak Stability Rating while Sprinting: 8 (very low shimmer)
Bonus when fitted on Prototype Scout: -99% reduction on CPU/PG usage
Bonus when fitted on Covert Ops Specialty Scout: -99% reduction on CPU/PG usage with -25% reduction to cooldown timer

Skill Prerequisite for Standard Cloak:
Cloaking Equipment Skill Book Level 1 ( -5% reduction to cooldown timer per level )

Skill Prerequisites for Covert Ops Cloak:
Cloaking Equipment Skill Book Level 5 ( -5% reduction to cooldown timer per level )
Cloaking Equipment Proficiency Skill Book Level 1 ( -3% reduction to cooldown timer per level )

What do you guys think?

EDIT:

I forgot to mention that in order to train into the Covert Ops scout, you should have to train up at least one of the racial scouts up to prototype level first as a prerequisite.

Already have been. We aren't getting charge while Sprinting. Deal with it. Just drop kill from the tops of buildings like I do

I basically think there should be four Light Dropsuits at the least.

Raider Dropsuit, for running and gunning. Gets a bonus to rate of fire and regeneration.
Scout Dropsuit, for reconnaissance. Gets a bonus to cloaks and scanners.
Marksman Dropsuit, for long-range shooting. Gets a bonus to scope zoom and optimal weapon range.
Pilot Dropsuit, for vehicle support. Gets a bonus to vehicle stats.

For better scouting ideas and roles, how we fight, and to learn about how scouting exists in dust I recommend you read up here.

Sit down and get comfortable. It's quite the read.

Then play a scout with the intent of the "roles" you outlined here. You can pretty much accomplish it already with the two racial scouts. Then come back and you'll see why none of this works out too well.

I'll admit I stopped reading after your Minmatar Scout suggestion. It became clear it was a waste of time.

Thanks for trying, though.

Since CCP is going to give the Scout suits a look over, I figure I'd toss up my ideas. I think there's a way for each suit to relay some sort of useful/helpful info that justifies it's "Scout" label. We need to give each scout a role that will make them not only desirable but in some cases needed for victory.

-Minmatar Scout-
Role: Assassin

When it comes to it's role and bonus, there's isn't anything that needs to be changed. So why am I bringing it up? Because I think it can be used more tactically(if that's the right word to use) by adding one thing, a kill beacon. The suit should broadcast every kill to it's allies through the Tac-net. A small, downward pointing dagger icon will flash above every killed enemy for a couple seconds (doesn't matter what weapon is used to kill, same icon will appear.). What that dagger tells you depends on when you see it and where. It could tell you a pesky sniper's been taken care of, or that nobody is manning that hostile turret anymore, or just let you know you got someone behind the lines making a nuisance of himself and distracting enemies. Put teamwork into it and that beacon can tell you a lot more.

-Gallente Scout-
Role: Locator

This suit should be a walking active scanner, every enemy it senses should be seen by allies. That would better compliment it's skill bonus. If it already does that then cool, no changes needed.

-Caldari Scout-
Role: Identifier

What could make this scout useful is the ability to tell you what you're facing. This scout could ID enemy suit/vehicle types, it's label appearing over the enemy, just above the "enemy unit" icon. For standard frames, the label "Light", "Medium", or "Heavy" will appear. For specialized suits, it'll show "Assault", "Commando", "Logistics", ect (same logic for vehicles). Depending on your Caldari Scout skill, you can ID more than one suit to a max of 5; The 5 closest to the center of your hud or weapon cross hairs. This would make the Caldari scout a sniper's choice because it would help the user pick off high value targets. This bonus could also couple well with active scanners and Gallente scout suits. Allies will be able to see suit labels on enemies that are being both scanned and ID'd.

-Amarr- Scout-
Role: Infiltrator

Drop Uplink spamming is becoming troublesome. What could help is making it more taxing on a suit's CPU and Grid to fit one. That would give this suit a very desirable role indeed. Should CCP tweak the uplinks, the Amarr scout suit could receive a bonus that reduces CPU and Grid usage, making it cost less for every skill level. It's role would be to make little base camps behind enemy lines. Like the minmatar suit, it will have a tac-net beacon. This one broadcasts a drop uplink icon over the user when an uplink is set.
