It does seem weird. But, Amarr dropsuits ARE the slowest race in EVE.

I read this entire thing and all I can say is.......



For the love of GOD you're....you're...YOU'RE!!!

I actually do have ideas just re read the thread. And ive been running the Advance gallente scout for the past month and a half so your false statement is null. At lvl 5 skills the A-scout will have a 100 shields plus two complex SE equals 244 maxium shields IDK were you got your info from but 312 thats the ehp of the suit at max skills. But ill give credit were credit is due, we sure do have 6 slots

Edit: Welp you were right gave no ideas in this thread, let me re type something I put in another thread

Either a increase to its current bonus or another bonus completely

Ok amars shields is 60 I thought it was 80 but whatever.
60x.25=75 shields
170x.25=212.5 armor
=287.5 base HP

My proto gallente shotgun fit

87 shields/212 armor= 299 HP

Comp percision
Creo sg
Viziam scp
M1
F45 re
Comp reactive plate
Enh damp
2x comp range

Played 6 matches last night every match was between 20/30 kills

Now imagine the A scout with this fit, drop the range use a red and you have a sprint and longer endurance plus a shield and a cloak and more armor because of armor upgrade will increase its % once you put that plate on.

Sorry dude but a month an a half doesn't make you a scout that's just a med frame preparing for 1.8

If you can't see how awesome this is than maybe you shouldn't scout

Your not bright are you

I am, you just fail to see that the point is it's not about the mods nor the slots but the bonus itself.

Speed Tankers like the bonus... Slayers don't .....
Who should CCP try to please with a Scout suit, Slayers/Scouts

Don't engage the ******. He has proven time and again that he would have a hard time reading a children's book, let alone this thread.

Ya now words hurt too.

No, speed tankers go minmatar. Amarr suit is still the slowest in every way, it can just be slower for longer. Some other guy did the calculations and even with the boost, the amarr scout can't outrun anything.

As someone who played a min scout through thick and incredibly thin, we are not OP. We are now a real scout.

I can't support Amarrian scouts getting buffed if they are calling for a minmatar nerf. You might not be, but you are framing it as such. Like a sibling whining about their older brother having something. Sounds like you should just play minmatar.

I think Amarrian scouts have the ability to have an unlimited, for all intents and purposes, stamina pool, and are also some of the most battle capable suits of the scouts. Amar scouts aren't as bad as you'd try to frame them. There's paper stats, and there are tactics. The Amar Scout has a lot of depth as far as tactics go in theory. How a player uses them is another story. As a long time scout, I can see the issue I am going to have with players who use the Amar scout effectively. Amarrian scouts will be the storm troopers of the scout world.

Also, using nova knives, even with the bonus, is not a given. It's not about paper stats, aka = 5 complex damage mods, etc. The knives are one of the things CCP really gets right as far as balance. It's not hard to see that if you spend anytime using them as a primary weapon against squads of heavies and logis.

As far as the stamina regen, while we still have to take breathers, a properly utilized amarian scout never will. They will hunt down a minja scout relentlessly, and when they eventually catch them, which they will, they will still have juice in the tank and ready to rock and roll. The minja, after such a hunt, will be at a disadvantage.

the one thing you should worry about, is you are going to be new to scouting, you will be up against players who've played in a nerfed suit since forever. You are going to have a steep learning curve.
