I got instakilled by a nova knife earlier. Not sure if it was one big hit or many hits in a fraction of a second, a la Arirana-style melee glitch. What I do know is it did 900 damage before I could even pull the trigger.
He came round a corner in the city, face to face with me, I heard the NK noise and I dropped dead. Probably he had me on passive scan so knew I was coming, hence how he got his hits off before I could fire.
Anyway, just thought I'd put that out there in case someone had any ideas about what happened, since I know nothing about NK's myself. |

I have minmatar scout 5 and prof 3 on my knives. I can one shot almost any suit in the game with a charged swipe if both blades hit. The only suits I can't ohk are the most heavily tanked heavies. |

ZN-28 (adv. knives) = 150 damage 2 swipes = 300 charge is an extra x2.5 damage = 750 add damage mods + poss lvl 5 prof and it'll easily do 900 damage.
Can also take out 60% of heavies in one good swing. Then you also have the proto Ishukone which does more.

Charge swipe, ishukone nova knives. You're looking at 550 per swipe if he charged them, and swipes come in doubles - each charge attack or trigger tap you swipe twice.

I could be wrong here, but I believe that the NK gets 3x damage from the charge shot. So PRO NK dealing 200 damage + Prof 5 (25% Dam increase) + Min scout lvl 5 (25% Dam increase) is 200x1.5=300 (x3 for charge shot = 900) and I think that it works out to that damage PER knife, NK swipe swings both knives one after the other for a total possible 1800 damage for 1 charge shot if both hits land perfectly. Plus they do have a headshot multiplier.
I could be wrong, but on one of my alts who is full Minja I can OHK a tanked heavy with ~1500 EHP with a charge shot to the back.
I am here to ask you one question, and one question only: EXPLOSIONS?
THAT SENTENCE HAD TOO MANY SYLLABLES! APOLOGIZE!

Indeed, working as intended. Scouts tend to skill up their range so they can better see medium suits coming. So yes, he probably did know you were there. Could of had minmatar scout to lvl 5, might of had proto knifes, with prof 5 on them.
Everything about that suit/combo is quickness. Quickly traversing the map, quick reflexes, quick kills, and very much..quick deaths.

knife kills are really hard to get. the odds are it was multiple swings the first charged then after that uncharged inn rapid succession. you can usually get off 2 or 3 swings before the enemy can react.

There have been a few threads complaining about being OHK by Nova Knives, but the general consensus is the same: If you let the weakest suit in game close enough to you to climb up your butt hole, don't act surprised when he bursts out of your chest like an Alien. |

Creepily starts sharpening knives, soon my pretties, soon. But yeah, seems fair that my suit that goes down in 2 basic rail shots can hit yours in one, try the knives out sometime, after maxxing out every biotic skill, dampening skill, scout suit skills, knives basic skills, profiency skill, scanner skills. And thats if you're a pure kniver, stabby stabby (charge time is max 1 sec anyway, think it can be pulled down to around 0.75 |

Dodgy hit detection, them removing one of the best features even though CCP "liked" it(the sprintcharge), and having to get suicidally close to your target. But nothing feels better than hacking a point you just cleared out with nothing but your knives.
If you hear the words "WORTH IT!" look about, something hilarious just happened.

Well, since enough input on this topic has appeared, I'll just say that knifing is awesome.
I have a friend who shreds with his proto Knives. I only have the advanced Knives and I OHK ANY medium or light frame with a fully charged hit. 2 hit any heavy.
Once I get the proto Knives, I'll be a force to be reckoned with... maybe. |

I use them occasionally to good effect but im definitely not the best out there. The issue is getting close enough to use them since suits walk the same speed backwards and forwards. Sprinting ruins the charge hit and if they suddenly move left or right, well thats a clean miss...

We used to be much more rare. I think it was 1.6 that mostly fixed hit detection. And of course shinobi showed the community how fun they can be, so you see them in almost every match now.
I think in many ways the event not only increased the number, but also gave others a chance for others to learn how to look out for, and counteract knifers.

I know this mInja named Ghost Kaiser, he absolutely destroys with NK in pubs because he does so much damage with proto ones he can kill most suits without charging. He also has a sprint speed of almost 10m/s. I've seen him get scores like 20/1 all day long |

I think the cloak will be one factor, but there are other factors that might come into play more. Like the adjustments to the other suits, and the supposed/hopeful increase in TTK.
If the increase in TTK is enough for scouts to run away instead of instant death, it will help, but if we still die so quickly that we don't have enough time to react, I can see shield and armor tanking meds and heavys take back their portion of the role share.

ive got a alt that is a Minja with proto knives. I can instakill heavys with a charged hit. I usually do it when they turned their back to me or from the side. The key to play as a scout is to never engage a enemy upfront. Simply cause they have much more HP and probs deal aswell more damage then you.

And that is the absolute beauty of the the knives. In the hands of a novice, they are absolutely useless and often times these people end up being mulch by the assault rifle users. But in the hands of an experienced professional who has dedicated every SP into using these weapons as well as practicing rigorously all year, these nova knives become the most feared weapons on the battlefield.
The experienced professional using these knives eventually become known throughout the course of the match as people start noticing the following in their kill feed...
Ninja Knifer (Ishukone Nova Knives) SomePoorFella Ninja Knifer (Ishukone Nova Knives) Fillet-a-Merc Ninja Knifer (Ishukone Nova Knives) HeavySuitDown Ninja Knifer (Ishukone Nova Knives) ScaredShitless Ninja Knifer (Ishukone Nova Knives) RunningAway Ninja Knifer (Ishukone Nova Knives) PeedMyself Ninja Knifer (Ishukone Nova Knives) NOOO NotTheFace Ninja Knifer (Ishukone Nova Knives) PLZ HaveMercy
At that point, you could become singled out from the rest and as a result the opposing team starts to hunt you down to get rid of you. That's when you know you did your job well. 
There was one heavy suit user who complained early last year about the knives being overpowered but funny enough all the other heavy suit users (who were NK victims) stepped in and actually supported the NK users because even the heavy users agree that if you get killed by a NK it's because that person was a professional and knew how to bring a knife to a gunfight.

If you want to become a knife user try a MLT light and shotgun combo with MLT Dampeners
It is a bit of a smoother way to understand CQC scouting and all the skills bar knives apply. Also it probably is best to up skill the passive scan skills before attempting to be a minja. I'm just a scout with a shotgun and REs and if I do scan the nova I have a fifty fifty chance. Generally I just back pedal and pull out an SMG. I did on the weekend jump off a building to land right beside him and feed the guy a shotgun but a) I didn't know he had knives at the time and b) I'm an idiot as I could have just dropped a RE instead, but where is the fun in that. |

Tried NK on my scout but could never quite get the hang of it. I'll stick to shotty thanks.
Prior to running scout I was pure Heavy and while suddenly dying comes as a surprise. When I see it was knives my response was always "oh, fair enough, good for them, well done." Also scouts suffered terribly to hit detection issues.
I recall while forge gunning from a tower hearing the knife swish behind me as an embarassed looking scout plopped down infront of me (I guess he jumped/lunged and the momentum carried him forward). I would've seen a dropship, so he must've seen me up there, hiked over and climbed the considerably long ladder, hopeing no sniper would get him or that I'd happen to be looking that way. To go to all that effort to get one heavy, just to have your swipe do nothing and to get SMGd to death.
That was a surprisingly common occurance and I have a lot of respect for scouts who stuck with it. As a HMG user all through uprising I know they suffered even worse than I. |
