Knight Soiaire BurgezzE.T.F 4430	Posted - 2014.01.13 16:21:00 - [1] - Quote The Minmatar Scout racial is the only Scout racial that has a combat orientated bonus. Assuming the Caldari and Amarr Bonuses remain the same. Scouts and combat dont mix, the Minmatar Scout should get a more 'Scoutly' bonus, say a bonus to hack speed, or a bonus to the effectiveness of Biotics. On top of this, we're also losing a Sidearm, which, in my opinion is a good trade-off considering we get an extra EQ slot. Meaning if we do decide to knife, we'll be stuck with one weapon that is really limited when it comes to combat. The Nova Knife bonus should be reserved for a more aggresive light frame class in the future, or could even become the Basic Frame bonus for Minmatar. But please dont forget about the Minmatar Scout, if these changes go ahead without a change to the Min Scout bonus, than the Min Scout will become the worst Scout suit in the game, and possibly the worst suit all together.

Why should I be locked down to one specific playstyle like Nova Knifing, Knives are a very niche weapon, and do not appeal to everybody. Right now I feel as if I'm being forced to equip a pair of Knives so I can get full use out of my bonuses, which isn't a problem, because I can equip Knives and a decent ranged weapon to make up for the fact that I have to be in humping distance to get a kill. Scouts with a Shotgun and SMG are laughable as is, could you imagine a Scout with just Knives? And what +10-20 Extra melee damage? Minmatar Scout will be useless if this bonus remains. Nova Knives should recieve a 25% Damage Buff, and the Bonus for the Min Scout should be replaced, everyone is a winner.

TranquilBiscuit ofVaLoR F.T.U. IMMORTAL REGIME 1189	Posted - 2014.01.13 16:32:00 - [4] - Quote that might work. if the knives get a 25% buff, then it'll be like we still have the knifing bonus. then a possible bonus for min scout would be bonus to running/movement speed. Anime > EVERYTHING

Matatri scout will be keeping it's weapon slots I hear, so you can keep your light weapon yes? And just because some choose not to use a bonus isn't ground to have it removed, there are those who love their NK bonus myself included, you knew what you were signing up for when you donned the gear so if the bonus isn't to your liking there's not much else to say.

If thats true about the weapon slots then its an entirely different story. I also knew when speccing into the Minmatar Scout that I could equip Knives, and a decent ranged weapon for more troublesome targets.

Don't need another SP sink for another crap suit. Scouts kill people. Scouts will continue to kill people. Scouts should be good at killing people within their niche.

The day scouts shouldn't have a combat role is the day that all logi's should have to equip a rep tool and NO weapons. They could release variants that use the same model and the same skill but has a different layout and tweaked stats. We have a Combat Rifle and an Assault Combat Rifle that use the same skills with the variant generally being a weaker copy of another race's primary role. Why not have a primary Scout and an alternate for each race? (Extend this to the other suits as appropriate.) The primary role of the Minmatar Scout has always been Assassin. The secondary role could be Recon/Pathfinder/Whatever and loses the sidearm slot for the equipment and maybe some weak attempt with some scanning bonus. The primary role of the Caldari Scout is shaping up to be electronic warfare but they could have a variant that gains a sidearm and loses an equipment to be the weak attempt at a Caldari Assassin. Of course, they would focus on long range combat being the cowards that they are and would get some form of bonus to Sniper Rifles. // Venge Captain // Matari Logistics / Scout / Pilot // @ReesNoturana

The day scouts shouldn't have a combat role is the day that all logi's should have to equip a rep tool and NO weapons. Do scouts really kill people, though? I think a lot of this has to do with many games inaccurately using the term "scout" to describe anything that is small and fast.

Now, how cheaply can you make a Minmatar Scout fit that handles all of that except for 3 equipment plus can still carry a light weapon? I've said it before but the real beauty of this game is being able make suits do things they were never intended to do. You can make this fit that is fast, more durable than a scout and carries more equipment.

Roy Ventus Foxhound Corporation General Tso's Alliance 866	Posted - 2014.01.13 18:40:00 - [34] - Quote You could also blame the lack of scout-focused gear. We only have cloaks, shotguns, and nova knives. Sniper Rifle doesn't count because it's better off in other suits right now. They have to focus around that for now. Maybe in the future we'll get Scan Jammers, Trackers, decoy equipment, Jetpacks, and more scout oriented weapons(silenced pistols, miasma(smoke) grenades, Electronic Attack grenades, Anti-Personnel mines, etc).

Which means the Minmatar Scout wont get a true role. If they really want to Minmatar to remain relevant with its current bonus the layout for Primary / Sidearm / Equipment needs to be 1 / 1 / 2.

Thats why we have a direct, high alpha damage, in your face weapon like the knives. No they shouldn't, the Heavy is a combat orientated role, a Scout should never beat a Combat Role in a fair one versus one, which is why they have EWAR to tip the battle in their favour.

Nobody said nerfing, I dont think the word was uttered once in this thread, just replace the bonus for christsake. removing a positive value is a nerf. removing a specific bonus for knives and replacing said bonus with something else is.. a nova knife nerf. math don't lie. You gotta hustle if you wanna make a dolla

Nobody said nerfing, I dont think the word was uttered once in this thread, just replace the bonus for christsake. How does a simple request turn into 4 pages of an arguement with people that dont understand that Scouts need to focus on EWAR before combat. Scouts should still retain some of their combat effectivness, but they should be EWAR before direct combat. They should be a direct counter to heavies, then EWAR afterwards. Thats why we have a direct, high alpha damage, in your face weapon like the knives. No they shouldn't, the Heavy is a combat orientated role, a Scout should never beat a Combat Role in a fair one versus one, which is why they have EWAR to tip the battle in their favour. Holy crap, its not that hard to understand. Its not hard to understand, its just wrong. Whats the scout suppost to do in ambush, oh wait, nothing. Scouts should be skirmishers, not EWAR bitches, Channel - Vote for Delt Delt for CPM1

Looks like you'll be the first person to be on my block list. Good luck with your CPM thing, I really hope you dont get elected, or are even considered by CCP.
