Gavr1lo Pr1nc1p TRA1LBLAZERS 222	Posted - 2014.01.23 23:08:00 - [1] - Quote The CPU to Pg usage in my opinion is imbalanced. CCP said that the cloak would be CPU intensive, however at the rate of 1 pg is worth about 4.7-5.2 cpu on a proto dropsuit, the Pg level is actually higher than cpu, and I can foresee this as causing massive problems for scouts trying to fit it, as most biotic modules for scouts, which is our life blood, are extremely pg intensive, not to mention shields and ferroscales. The Pg costs for the cloak need to be lowered for them to be able to be fitted on scouts who want to use shield modules or kincats, and perhaps raise the cpu cost if you beleive that it is too easy to fit on other suits. Currently, I probably wont even be able to fit the cloak on my minja, due to its low pg levels and high pg demands of the cloak. Please fellow scouts, recognize this problem and assist me in this. Yes, I did kill Archduke Ferdinand. I used my nova knives. https://dust514.com/recruit/k3vMnb/

No suit no matter how much you wish it so; cannot do everything at the same time. This is true, however, I beleive that it is a reasonable request that if i run an adv specialist shotgun, and a basic SMG that I should be able to fit full proto modules and at least an adv cloak, with a stable active scanner, with my fittings skills maxed. This, however is not the case. Yes, I did kill Archduke Ferdinand. I used my nova knives. https://dust514.com/recruit/k3vMnb/

Tank, Scan Dampening, Biotics, and Visual Dampening. I can do 2 on my Amarr A/1 when it is released, at any one time.

No suit no matter how much you wish it so; cannot do everything at the same time. Also, I dont think i'm trying to do everything by having 3 of the weakest type of hp module in the game so i dont get 2 shotted by a railrifle, a non-proto specialist weapon, a basic sidearm, and 2 prototype sprint enhancers. It is all built around one goal- staying fast, and mobile in combat, while being able to move quickly between encounters. No disrespect intended, I just think that this type of build that the minmitar scout was designed for should be encouraged and not impossible to attain. Yes, I did kill Archduke Ferdinand.

The new scout bonus is 15% reduction to this 'cloaks' CPU and PG per level. (Reference HERE ) Thats 75% at level 5. Scouts will have to pay 25 CPU instead of 100 and 17 PG instead of 70 PG. The ones who are Fed are , well, everyone else that is not a scout and would like to abuse the cloak... There ARE ways around this, like using CPU and PG enhancers at the cost for tank ,but well, to each their madness.... GIVE ME A RESPEC CCP.*

I very much appreciate the approach CCP has taken in limiting Scout "OP Potential" through CPU and PG. This affords us much more flexibility in our design choices than would the formerly proposed reduction/limitation of slots.

Don't be sad, brother. Just downgrade your KinCat or swap it out for a PG extender. Trading a little land speed for whatever tactical advantage cloak affords very well may be a fair trade. If not, f*ck cloak and stick to cover. You know the drill :-) CPU/PG restrictions are good for Scouts in the long run. Restrictions will be what keep away the EZ Mode masses.

Fitting out a Min scout has never been easy Drop tank and you can fit cloak. That would be reasonable. Balancing out fittings is part of how the game remains balanced. When fittings become unbalanced then we see issues. Logi Slayers are an example, room to fit in all capacities creates imbalance.

Gavr1lo Pr1nc1p TRA1LBLAZERS 225	Posted - 2014.01.24 01:54:00 - [35] - Quote Here is what I would really like people to take away from this thread (incoherent as my various points were) Using the lowest fitting cost equipment available for each type in each weapon and equipment slot, (excluding the k5 specialist shotgun, as the basic shotgun has a slightly lower fitting cost), for the items i wish to fit, with maxed out skills, I must still use a Pg enhancer in one of my extremely valuable low slots in order to fit a cloak on my Minmitar scout. All I ask of the readers of this thread is to acknowelege the disparities that now exist between the lowest fitting scout (Minmitar), and the highest fitting scout (Gallente). Because of the extreme disparity in dropsuit fittings between the two races, with maxed out skills, weaponry and equipment of the lowest fitting values, and prototype modules neccessary for survival, the minmitar scout is unable to fit even a basic cloak. Please (respectfully) comment on your opinion of this, instead of my OP, as this statement is much more coherent and understandable in regards to my main point. Yes, I did kill Archduke Ferdinand.

CCP said that the cloak would be CPU intensive, however at the rate of 1 pg is worth about 4.7-5.2 cpu on a proto dropsuit, the Pg level is actually higher than cpu, and I can foresee this as causing massive problems for scouts trying to fit it, as most biotic modules for scouts, which is our life blood, are extremely pg intensive, not to mention shields and ferroscales. The Pg costs for the cloak need to be lowered for them to be able to be fitted on scouts who want to use shield modules or kincats, and perhaps raise the cpu cost if you beleive that it is too easy to fit on other suits. Currently, I probably wont even be able to fit the cloak on my minja, due to its low pg levels and high pg demands of the cloak. Please fellow scouts, recognize this problem and assist me in this. IMO PG on the cloak is fine. I can make my fit, but I have to use a low for a PG slot and run PG light equipment. What they need to do is make shield extenders and Kincats so PG heavy. I use almost 52 PG on just those four modules, and they are NECESSARY for a Minmatar scout (2 shields and 2 Kincats) Heck, the Kincat is only 2 PG less than a Proto Cloak. That's insane. If the cloak is good enough where I will not be getting shot at as much, I might dump shields on my suit to save PG and run more eWar focused mods. Nothing says "F**K YOU!" like a direct Flaylock to the face. Minmatar. In Rust we trust.

Well, the problem here is you trying to cram on 3x Complex Shields ON TOP of 2x Complex Kincats, and then NOT running a PG upgrade. Those 5 modules run 63 PG by themselves. That leaves you only 18 PG for the rest of your fit! Try this fit: 2x Complex Shields 1x Complex Light Damage Mod (For extra punch) Duvolle Specialist Core Flaylock (Dat 2 PG) M1 Locus 2x Complex Kincat 1x Complex PG enhancer Compact Hive Proto Cloak It will still have 2PG left over, and a fair amount of CPU.

And really, none of the others seem 'bad' to me.... I'm having a hard time deciding between Gal and Min.... The idea behind what i want for the minmitar suit is simple-the ability to shield tank as far as the suit can go to survive when knifing or shotgunning someone from behind, having them turn around spraying with their rifle/HMG, and having the ability to survive the first 2-3 bullets that will undoubtedly hit before I can get into a speed tanking mode, which is just luck and trying to hit with my SMG at the same time. I really like what Ghost Kaisar said, as it very accurately sums up the situation for a minmitar scout. As the lowest HP suit in the game, we NEED the shields to survive the inevitable bullets that will spray from random sources until we can get to cover. The kincats are neccessary as well. The Gallente scout on the other hand doesnt really need to sacrifice anything, as it can equip triple kincats, a cloak, a scanner, and a basic armor plate with ease (not ferroscale- they cost too much), as well as a shield and a damage mod. Now the Gallente scout is faster, Has about equal health (72.6 shield + 93.5 armor+ plus 30 more base health comes out to just 416.1 total HP for a gallente using this build, whereas minmitar with maxed out skills and triple complex shield is 430.3) and they have to dedicate a low slot to a complex profile dampener to have same dB as a gallente, and using their other two low slots for kincats, they still arent as fast as the previously mentioned Gallente. Then, on top of that, the Gallente gets 3 armor per second, a cloak, and a complex damage mod to top it off. Yes, I did kill Archduke Ferdinand.

If this fits, then I will agree with you that the two scouts have 0 disparity. Please show me your numbers as well. Thank you in advance. Yes, I did kill Archduke Ferdinand. I used my nova knives. https://dust514.com/recruit/k3vMnb/

What p***es me off is that you are out here calling for an increase to CPU and a reduction to PG like your play style is the only one that actually maters, and that you should be able to fit what you want to "because it is the way I want to play". I'll build your fit for you. It'll take a few minuets though, to run the math. {:)}{3GÇó>
