How about we increase the CPU/PG requirements of modules that yield HP, and lower the CPU/PG requirements of EWAR and Biotic modules?

That way every suit has to make a sacrifice if they want to have a massive eHP pool, while also encouraging people to do something other than "brick tank".

problem: shields are already pretty high, to the point that I can have problems fitting my scout, I'd rather not be more gimped than I am now thanks.

Been scout for a long time. Went through nerf after nerf to my frame but stuck it out. Finally we get the suit to where it should be and what do we get? Assaults and slayer logis jumping ship and brick tanking a scout... With a cloak.

This sucks. So what can we do about it. My idea is t drop th ability to tank a scout. Let's face it, lore wise (and sense wise) it's a light frame not designed for heavy armor. Therefore.... Don't allow it on the suit. Make it so scouts can only be fit with 1 plate total OR only ferroscale plates. No one will stack a bunch of ferro plates either as they are resource hogs.

The exception here would be amar scout which being an armor tanking race should be allowed to fit with as many plates as they want. This gives amsr a unique scout that can be a light assault or fit to e more scoutly.

Shields can be fit but any shield module past the first would give a profile penalty (10% basic, 15% advanced, 20% proto) except for the caldari who could fit maybe 2 without penalty or however many that would be balanced. Amar should never use shields

This would end tanked scouts, give amar scout a unique versatile role, and drive slayer logis and assaults from the suit. Give them a suit refund if they submit a ticket or something.

Most scouts didn't want a cloak, but it's easily balanced. Put a delay between decloaking and shooting. Slight sound within say 10 m or something, flux nades should drop the cloak field. It's otherwise fine and 6-700 ehp scouts won't be decloak blapping people. Instead it will be more of a movement aid and escape tool more then an attack tool.

Adapt or die.

Then perhaps we could simply adjust the Base HP?

I assume your using a Minmatar Scout perhaps? I don't have too much trouble fitting shields on my Caldari Scout unless I'm using a cloak.

I am, and there lies my problem, since I don't brick tank any fitting or HP changes to shields effect me greatly, I should be a low EHP high damage suit with damage mods in my lows, but with the DM in the high (due to lack of mods I'd think) my playstyle is only half of what it could be.

Dont think you can play your scout like you have always been. Think more about how you can adapt your fitting and playstyle to be able to counter a heavily tanked scout.

Do not go and tell others what they cannot do just because your tactics fail.

I don't need to do anything. Scouts and Heavies all die quickly to my Shotgun anyways.

That doesn't change the fact that Scouts have way too much eHP for their own good. I don't believe you were okay with Logistics users abusing their class for higher eHP, so I'm not too sure why it's okay for Scouts to do the same.
