The 5% hacking speed bonus (which seems like its going to be removed from the Minmatar logi) would be perfect on a scout given that they have the speed to quickly and stealthily reach objectives.
An alternative would be to have the hacking bonus was the role bonus for all scouts, and the Minmatar scout bonus was to the efficacy of biotic modules (kinkats, stimulants, and myofibrals), 10% per level. The plan was to buff up the Minmatar Scout's base melee damage (right now light frames do 80, medium frames 110 and heavy frames 150) up to 120.
Would there be any possibility of tying in a melee damage boost to an increased damage output of nova knives? It just feels logical.

What about buffs to basic blade swipes (not charged). As it stands I very rarely see nova knives; albeit the upcoming data mining event on scouts will change that.

I'm sure they have the old codex and chromosome melee animation code buried somewhere?
