Hey! I'm a 1337-pro assassin (sort of*), and I happen to run Caldari Scout.
Before I begin... I definitely will kill you. Muahaha...
Ok, so. My fit at proto-level is as follows:
WEAPONS
Kaalakiota Magsec SMG
'Fleshriver' Ishukone Nova Knives (that I got from the event. Otherwise I use the ZN-28s)
EQUIPMENT
Cloak
Compact Nanohive (I have CPU/PG room for a full rep hive, but I don't have the skills for one)
GRENADE
AV Grenade
HIGHS
Complex Shield Extender (x2)
Enhanced Precision Enhancer (x2) (Don't have the skills for Complex Precision, but both of the other scanning skills are at 5)
LOWS
Complex Profile Dampener (x2)
I have a tiny bit of CPU/PG left. Only enough to upgrade my Nanohive to a K-2. I plan on using the leftovers for a better cloak (when I get them).
For the ADV Scout, it's basically the same thing, but downgraded to fit only ADV things. Always have less Precision Enhancers than Shield Extenders. That's your life blood. Imagine that in red, dripping text.
And tips? I have tips coming out of my ears.
1) Join the Learning Coalition. We have plenty of people that like to squad, hang out, and some of us like to teach! I'm an instructor/founder there, so I can teach if no one else can (Although I'm not on too much as of late). Other great guys are Jillic, Ironyimation, Regnier Feros, and anyone with 'Gaden' in their name. I'd look for them as well, because they (along with myself #humble) are pretty much the stars of the Learning Coalition, and have been there for a long time.
2) Don't focus too much on your cloak. It's useful, definitely, but most people at this point are looking out for a big blue outline. Sometimes the cloak makes you a huge target. BUT it dampens your profile by 25%. So you can use it in the following instances (not only these, however, there are plenty. Just for the sake of a shorter post, I'm only listing these).
-Infiltrating a building. The cloak makes it so you'll get relatively unnoticed, because scanners, passive scans, etc. won't be able to pick you up.
-Hacking installations and objectives! While standing still, you're completely invisible (save a small shimmer). This means that if you crouch down next to a CRU, you can hack it before any enemies spot you.
-Quick escape. I'll provide an example. My very first battle with the Cloak, I was being shot at. I turn a corner, activate my cloak, guy comes around corner and has no idea where I am. And then my friend puts a shotgun round into his face. :D
Other than that, I'm really too tired to type any more. Have fun, join the Learning Coalition, don't get killed, etc. etc.
*Warning: I've been very inactive lately and I'm sort of bad. These tactics should be just fine if you'e actually good at the game, but I'm rusty, so these might be sucky tactics. I have no idea. Try it out. <3
