I was mostly using CR to fit with the racial theme. I like to fit weaponry that matches the suit's race.
Minmatar Scout --> Combat Rifle Gallente Scout --> Shotgun or Assault Rifle
Shield regeneration bonus for Gallente Assault is about as useful as Sharpshooter for Nova Knives.

REs are the funnest weapon in the game, sneaking up on logi+heavy combos then insta gibbing them makes me grin ear to ear.
These forums must be located in the Californin country side, there is whine as far as the eye can see.

Just that it's still a deadly weapon.

A plasma rifle becomes way more challenging when you only use it's variants for the most time.
Tactical AR Gallente Scout is fun mode when you rock enough damage. Burst Assault Rifle is the mark of shame fun Breach is actually really easy to use in my opinion it's why I do better with it sometimes even with it's lower DPS so there's another exception to the low dps =/= difficult to use

I will never fault a scout for using a rifle.... gotta use what you like and what works. I get annoyed getting killed by rifles and shotguns but *le sigh* such is the life of a standard stamina/sensor/sidearm scout. Lots of deaths, lots of insta-gibs. Fun never the less and every kill is so, so sweet.

Moody's videos are my favorite on DUST by a big margin (Judge's are pretty incredible too). "Are you not entertained?!?!" LOL, yes, yes I am entertained. I'm sure these take a fair amount of time and effort to put together, and it is greatly appreciated.
I first found his channel from the Knifing 101 video. I watched that, bumped KN to 3, and put them on my ADV gal scout suit (I only have it to 3). I managed to flank and sneak up on a group of 4-6 heavies and assaults on top of a hill. I took a deep breath, pulled out the knives, charged in, hit a bunch in a whirl of knives, didn't kill anything and was promptly executed. That was a great moment, I gained a lot of respect for scouts, and realized how much fun they could be. I was laughing my ass off.
Killing with knives is some of the most satisfying combat you can have in this game. Watching Moody's tactics has greatly improved my situational awareness in all suits, and made me a much better player in general. o7
Best PvE idea ever!

Have been a logi since Chromosome on my main but wanted a Matari merc so made covert and ran with scout about 2 months ago. It was love at first sight. I now play scout most the time and will be speccing into Gal/Cal scout on my main and Min scout on this merc.
I run CR and NK on my Min scout. Mr Moody said that carrying a shotgun doesn't make sense if you run Knives and I ******* LOVE knives. Also, covert only uses Matari suits and weapons (kinda RP type thing). I'll run shotty and bolt on my Gal and Magsec and NK on my Cal.
So much fun, I'm getting better with NK all the time, there's nothing as rewarding as getting a knife kill for me. Been scouting for 2 months now and won't be going back...other than my Gal logi for ewar purposes.

I'm probably going PRO Gallente scout in 1.8 as my secondary suit (primary will still be Amarr assault with the LR). Scouting is a nice change of tempo. I wanted to go Amarr scout, but let's not go there in this thread.

You'll learn the way of the scout, that's how I did it. I'm very successful with them.

I used to run Shotgun + NKs, but realised I'm screwed past 10m engagements. So I tried out ZN knives + KLO Scrambler Pistol for the shinobi event. Awesome fun, very difficult.
I since went back to shotgun, but with ScP. And I'm a lot better than I was before playing with knives. So I'd say, try each out, and spend a decent amount of time doing each, because your situational awareness will get better as you try different styles. I learnt a lot just running another fit for a decent amount of time. |

I recently started running Gal scout cuz I love to be fast and squishy. Unfortunately I'm not good at RE spamming, so I suppose I miss half of the fun. Furthermore I still have to adapt my playstyle to scouting. Jump-shotgunning in clone faces is a hell a fun though.

To each their own, though.
The ACR is just an SMG with tons more range and a smaller clip. It is also easier to fit.
As an Ex-SMG scout, why WOULDN'T I use it?
