As a minmitar scout that majors in shotguns and knives...i somewhat rely on the profile dampening bonus the suit gets (for those that arent minjas trust me on this, a 20-25% dampening bonus can make a large difference in non proto matches, add a dampening module and ya might as well be a ghost in all matches) . So i was a little bit peeved once i heard that the dampening bonus might get switched for a hacking bonus...which i believe will make the suit almost completely impractical battlewise as compared to the other scout suits which i heard are gonna get the scan/dampening bonuses.
not being traced in close combat is like half the reason the knives are worth equipping , they sorta work in tandem with each other. though i think we are getting a respec...i will be heavily dissapointed in no longer being a cut throat ninja scout...
though this is what i was told...im hoping its not a truth...well..the respec can stay but DONT TAKE MY MINJA AWAY!

it's more like they've taken it away in favour for the cloak bonus, which themselves have 25% dampening, and you instead get a buff to your stealth (you're hardier to detect according to stats) and the hacking bonus. I would say all power to you!

Your title is confusing, you make it seem like your addressing all scout but in reality your just talking about one( minmatar ) I demand you change title to " Future of the Minmatar Scout ".

All scout suits will have the db(Scan Profile) reduced to 35, effectively avoiding ADVANCED level Active scanners even without profile dampening skills.
Minmatar Scout = Profile dampened vs Advanced scanners
Minmatar Scout + Profile dampener = 99% Profile dampened (except for FLux Proto scanners used by Gallente Logis)

All the scout suits are getting a reduction to their base scan profile stat: from 45 dB to 35 dB. The difference between your suits scan profile, after the removal of the current bonus, will be extremely small:
Current scan profile with bonus: 30 dB
scan profile after 1.8 change: 31 dB
Are you seriously complaining about this? Is that one dB really better than 25% hack speed? I didn't think so.

That's just dumb. The new stats will dodge u under advanced scans in the same way as its is to day. It does not mater if its 30 or 31 you still dodge them.
Sorry but I fail to feel your pain bro and I am a scout ( both mimi and gall)

Not to mention the 25% profile dampening that cloaks will bring.

Your minja is not being taken away. It's just making it more practical for its role. The Minmatar Scout is suppose to be the fastest suit and thus should be the one to benefit the hacking bonus. And since the mini scout is getting a buff to profile dampening built into it and since we're all getting the cloaking equipment in addition to all scouts getting the second equipment slot while still keeping the sidearms, I don't see a problem with the new changes.
