I will still be dampening my suit with a single complex dampener. Why?
Std/Adv Scanners can't see me
Vehicles can't see me
Passive Scans on Medium/Heavy Suits can't see me
Passive Scans on the Majority of Scouts can't see me
However with Scouts become more prelevant in 1.8, profile only dampening will become less useful as people are gonna be looking out for those scouts ALOT, but here in 1.7 unless I doing the maccarena in the middle of an open field, being profile dampened on a medium suit is near as good as full blown invisibility.
Unless your a Computer Scientist don't tell me how Game Mechanics Work.

This is the "Dampening is useless because 1 scanner can still see you" argument.
That scanner was designed to pick up scouts and the C-Scout is designed to do the same.
If a scout can't get the jump on you then that scout is dead, it's as simple as that.
I'm just upset that the A-Scout doesn't have enhanced EWAR like the others.
If more EWAR tools are ever introduced, I can probably see the Amarr Scout in the future having its role one day changed to jam enemy TACNETs.
That would be frikkin awsomeness!

That's like trying to put on a ghillie suit on a regular infantry when its best used on a dedicated sniper. Sure the medium will become a little less visible, but it's the scouts that should reign supreme in the stealth department. Otherwise scouts will just get marginalized like how they are now in 1.7 compared to logis.
Dampners are more like DPM's if you don't have it, you stick out like a sore thumb, if you do have it requires effort to spot. If your in a ghillie suit your practically invisible, people have mistaken me for all kinds of things.
