I suggest getting a Militia Gallente outfit: Weapons of your choice Flux grenades - 5 WP per equipment destroyed including remote explosives (REs) on objectives 2 MLT or Basic Armor plates 1 MLT or Basic Dampener - will stop people instantly seeing you with all passive scans except for Scouts and some outliers.
Equipment: REs or Scanner
Scanner tells them you are coming but you get to see them too.
REs, leave them on an objective or approaches or before you go around a corner to engage and enemy slap them on the wall. So when you do engage and fall back they run around and you set off the RE. Many a heavy has fallen to that cunning plan and I use scouts with 200eHP. |

Level 1 electronics, then level 1 dampening. Reason being most suits have the same scan as profile. So level 1 gives you a fairly good bang for buck as a lot of people don't invest in scan precison & the dampener modules outpace the passive scan ones.
It can reduce the amount of equivalent suits seeing you through walls.
Engineering and Electronics I only invest in when I have run out of Power Grid (PG) and CPU and normally that means you need advanced modules, weapons and equipment (or too many militia ones). It is quite hard to use up all a suits power and CPU using basic gear.
I only have 4.9 million SP on my main. I generally invest first in core upgrades, then weapon then suit.
So at the moment I have a lot of advanced core (including equipment), level 1 scout, logi and assault (leveling up to medium 3 unlocks two specialty suits), level 3 AR, Shotgun & REs, level 5 SMG (because every non logi outfit has SMG as my backup weapon).
I have invested only level 1 for shield modules as they are a special case. You either go basic or proto and their are a lot of competing modules in the advanced space that get you more bang for buck ie damage modules or scan precision.
I still only have level 1 in electronics and engineering. And only now have some fitting issues.
Ie running a STD Minimatar scout with basic stamina, enhanced dampener, std assault rifle and std SMG with adv uplinks I can't fit the high module. Not really needed as this is my opening fit that lays uplinks and then I swap out to a shotgun/RE fit. |

Go into the Dust options and lower the sensitivity of the aim. |

For a combo frontline scout my alt is a Gallente scout with a rifle mainly AR, but she is also a test bed for RR and CR.
My warrior scout essentially is lots of armoured plates and use the passive scan distance and precision for advantages. Stay close to a group, flank, hit hard and melt away. Remove the enemy flankers relying on stealth... once you play scout you will recognise the paths.
If scanning is becomming an issue slip on a suit with a better set of Dampeners until you disappear again and if possible hit the scanner hard from behind. Nothing quite as tasty as watching someone twirl around with a scanner and then melt them down with a shotgun. |
