Overview: I have a Minja Alt to get ready for Operation Shinobi with some spare Skill Points to burn. There are several options and advice would be much appreciated.
-
Relevant Info:
- Will have about 420k unallocated Skill Points by the 15th
- Minja level 4
- Profile Dampening level 4
- Bare bones fitting skills
-
Fitting Plan: M/1 Scout with ZN-28 Nova Knives. Modules are normally a militia stamina, armor rep, and shield extender. Aiming to keep the fits cheap and expendable.
-
Some Skill Options: Everything inside the parenthesis is the total Skill Point cost to by the skill.
- Kin-Cats at level 1 (18k SP) or 3 (205k SP)
- Shield Extenders same as Kin-Cats
- Nova Knife Proficiency level 3 (217k SP)
- Either sensor buff skill level 2 (55k SP)
- Handheld Damage Upgrades level 1 (74k SP) or 3 (148k SP)
- Do nothing and get Profile Dampening 5 during the event
-
Room Chat/Channels: Scouts United seems well populated. If anyone knows of another Light Frame hangout please share.

Need for speed eh? While experimenting I've had a bit of a toss up between speed and stamina. Being able to run forever has been nice but there has been this nagging feeling maybe more control over contact might be better. If going this route it would mean experimenting with some Enhanced Kin-Cats.

Compared to other weapons the step increase in damage is pretty impressive. I would have ran more iNK fits but the cheap one was three times more expensive and the other four times than my throw away fit. Using them also practically requires use of the Advanced Minja outfit. Looks like it is time to review options for increasing fitting skills.

If you master the art of jump charging anyone you get into knife range with will die, period.

The Wolverine Jump has been practiced. Still working on it.

Thank you for confirming that, it was a suspicion that the prof skill wasn't as valuable as it is for other weapons. Just needed someone to say it. Especially with so many other things that will boost other aspects on the suit in other less tangible ways.
I will get online and see what options there are for getting iNKs on the suit. Fitting skills and/or boosting modules.

Update: The fitting skills or modules weren't necessary.
Basic Scout w/ iNK, militia Shield Extender, militia Card-Reg, enhanced Kin-Cat. About 19k ISK
Advanced Scout w/ iNK, 2x enhanced Shield Extenders, militia Card-Reg, enhanced Kin-Cat. Under 30k ISK
Kind of missing the militia Armor Repper.

Thanks GK. My Minja Alt is in The Scouts United chat. Nice chat, sad that I already have too many open on this Main.
