For all those complaining about the potential of the Amarrian Scout suit and saying its potentially OP, or underserving of a proper racial bonus.
Full credit to Aero Yassavi on this one.

After skills, the ak.0 has 446 CPU and 92 PG 3 complex plates, 1 advanced plate, 2 complex shield extenders: 218 CPU and 64 PG used adding a K17/D (R) hive: 265 cpu and 76 PG used 220 shield, 779 armor, 2 weapon slots, a grenade slot and an equip slot free, with 181 CPU and 16 PG free to fit them You should know me enough by now Aero that i don't comment on things that i can't back up :P So I took the liberty to do the same thing with the gk.0. After skills it has 433 CPU and 97 PG 3 complex plates, 1 advanced plate, 2 complex shield extenders: 218 CPU and 64 PG used adding a K17/D (R) hive: 265 CPU and 76 PG used 233 shield, 729 armor, 2 weapon slots, a grenade slot, and an equip slot free with 168 CPU and 21 PG free to fit them That is 37 less EHP, 13 less CPU, 5 more PG, and faster than the Amarr scout. So yeah, tell me how this argument of Amarr being so combat ready that it doesn't deserve a bonus equivalent to a complex mod, yet the Gal scout is arguably more combat ready and can get a bonus equivalent to a complex mod plus a secondary bonus.
And begin.

Lol 3 complex plates slow things way down. I dont care what suit you are in. why get a scout and mess with speed?
A real scout dream is 3 high 3 low. Thats where it gets good.
The best fit for actual usage will be 2 advance plates and 2 complex reactive plates with proto weapon with dmg mods.

Yet all I can do is just sit here and just laugh at all the people who I'm pretty sure have no interest in specing into the amarr defend why it gonna be op if it can run longer than them

That's not the point though is it. People were complaining that Amarr scout could hit over 1000 HP with its lay out and be a sort of "light assault fit"
Well so can the Gal Scout. And it can do it far better!

Scout tanking is kind of lol imo. Same here. But someone tried to argue the Amarr suit was fine as it was because of the potential to tank over 1000 HP, but when you consider the Gal scout can do better and still has a better bonus.....its hard to retain that stand point.....

Scout tanking is kind of lol imo. Again the point of this isn't scout tanking, the point is people have been using the Amarr's max potential EHP as an excuse for it's sup-par racial bonus, when in fact the other scouts are about the same in max potential EHP.
Amarr scout's racial bonus is less than the value of a standard cardiac regulator Gallente scout's racial bonus is the value of a complex profile dampener plus a scan radius bonus Caldari scout's racial bonus is more than the value of a complex precision enhancer plus a scan radius bonus Minmatar scout's racial bonus is the value of a complex codebreaker plus a NK damage bonus
How can you say the Amarr's racial bonus is on par with the rest? Whatever your argument is, you can't use max potential EHP as your excuse anymore.

To be fair you also have to mention how the Amarr gets 25 more stamina and 1.33x faster stamina regen over the Gal before the bonus is even applied.
The two are balanced until the inherent armor rep comes up or you take a look at the bonuses.
Max Scout skill Amarr has stamina pool 281.25 with 50 stamina regen. Giving it 81.25 stamina/20 stamina regen advantage.
Max Scout skill Gal scans at 24m and scan profile is 26.25.
This doesn't apply any other skills like dampening, range amplifying, biotics skill. Just dropsuit skills. |

How does that justify as weaker/lesser racial bonus.
The Amarr suit naturally have these stamina bonuses as part of what makes then unique, like the Min Speed, the high Cal Shield, and the high Gal Armour.
As I keep saying, why do the Amarr have to barter with the base stats which differential them from the other factions in order to have a decent bonus?

The min nk bonus is worth 3 complex DMG mod with penalties but people argue that you have to breath down their neck to even apply the damage which is a fair counter argument/post/whatever thing.

Even in another thread, you are putting words into my mouth claiming that i think the bonus is fine as is
I'm not going to argue this in another thread, if you are unable to read my other posts then It is impossible to have a discussion with you

Hmm perhaps we are zealous....but frankly speaking you have yet to convince me to any degree that your stand point is valid. I appreciate the effort you put into your argument.....but its unconvincing to me.

1) Clipsize increase is already the Scrambler Pistol Operations skill, so this becomes redundant 2) Every other scout gets a primary racial bonus equivalent to a complex mod plus a secondary bonus as well

Yeaa I know I was just adding in the small but noticeable detailed information that Aero missed. And yes that's what erks the hell out of my we get one bonus compared to the rest of the scouts. And we're not asking for much not even trying to get the other suits nerfed into oblivion and yet there's a group of people acting like everything is jolly a fine with the downgraded bonus hell its not even a bonus.

A real scout dream is 3 high 3 low. Thats where it gets good.
The best fit for actual usage will be 2 advance plates and 2 complex reactive plates with proto weapon with dmg mods. That's not the point though is it. People were complaining that Amarr scout could hit over 1000 HP with its lay out and be a sort of "light assault fit" Well so can the Gal Scout. And it can do it far better!
I wouldn't say far better, the gal will have a slight speed advantage with the passive 3HP/s (wich isn't taht much of an issue IMHO) while the Amarr will be more agile/mobile in general thanks to the higher stamina.
Apart from that both fittings are completely stupid as you have way better choices for powerfull high HP suits...
I have compared all dropsuit stats and the bonusses giving them a rating from 2 to 0. Based on that nubercrunching currently the best option by far are the minni scout and the caldari scout, Amarr and gallente are pretty close with a small head up for the gallente...
The combination of suit stats and bonusses of the the cal/mini scaout overshadows the gallente and amarr by a good margin
