Is this suit scan-able with the cloak on? I'm pretty sure it can be scanned without a cloak.
If not, I refuse to skill into a Minja just for hacking the point quicker than anyone else, because without that fitting I showed you it'll just be inferior to other scouts.
I would love to just melee someone while cloaked and do 454 bloody damage...

No it's not scannable... But why do you wanna melee for 454 when you can knife for 1000?

A max skilled cal scout with 4 precision can still pick you up, but that's a rare fit. Also a max skilled gal logi with pro focused scanner can get you as well.
Edit. To clarify three damps and a cloak will bring you down to 14.7db which rounds up to 15. 4 precision on a cal scout is 14.9, also 15. And a gal logi with pro focused us 15 db. When the dbs are the same you are scanned.

You can melee while cloaked. So instead of decloaking and alerting them to your presence, you can kill 2 birds with one stone.

What? I just looked at this and it says otherwise.
Edit: With the cloak on, that is

This will help:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/lv?key=0AvYSJ6FRJlihdFhORUVidFFTOEhpUG0xOVRUb0pkakE&usp=drive_web&pli=1
1 complex + cloak will get you down far enough to only be detected by Gal Proto focused scanners and a Proto focused Cal scout with 4 precision enhancers.
If you wanted to make sure, and maybe wanted to go further a complex and a enhanced is all you need with a cloak on to avoid all scans. |

At prototype you can run a min scout with complex kin cat and Dampener plus one enhanced Dampener. No reason for a third when cloak is active. |

So the 14.64 doesn't round up to 15? Nice, good to know.
Hell, you could even throw a kin cat in there if you wanted instead.

I would still do it on the Myofibril stacked fit to avoid people who are too lazy to run a focused scanner or 4 precision Cal scouts

But he is right in the case of a heavy or a particularly well tanked medium. Definitely decloak and charge the knives first.

CCP just needs to add dB to the list of stats on the fitting screen. At least something like "advanced stats" that included everything from extra damage to jump height to scan range...
Would make everything SO much easier.

Good to know but I doubt this fit would survive only on melee against a heavy...

Knife then punch.
Or punch ten uncharged swipe
Also you decloak after the first melee.
I refuse to gve honor to your 'god' so therefore i dual tank.

This so much. Thought it took them foreverrrr for CCP to add basic fitting and stats information to EVE. I only hope they can do this for DUST soon. |

I run an enhanced damp only and I beat all ADV and Basic Scanners. While cloaked I beat a majority of Gal Scouts that I run past but not all.
No you cannot melee while cloaked. I tried that and it didn't work and I decloaked and kept hitting the guy not realizing it and I got killed for being paper thin. If a clone sneezes you'll die since you have zero HP. You will absolutely decloak if you melee someone and it hits. I tried doing it to air on the day of the release and it DID NOT uncloak me. But when I hit a teammate It decloaked me. When I hit an installation it Decloaked me. When I hit an enemy, it decloaked me.
Personally, I'm a HUGE Min-Scout fan since I run Dom. I'll tell you 4 of my proto fits. Note that one is the Republican Proto Scout suit from the LP store and has one less Low Slot but an extra equipment.
1st fit, it's my "sprint toward objective at spawn, get an uplink down, and hack and get out" fit: 3 Enhanced Shields 1 Complex Code Breaker 1 Enhanced KinKat 1 Enhanced Cardio basic Cloak R-9 Uplink Basic AR Flaylock pistol Side Arms (to test for RE's without wasting a nade) M-1 Nade
2nd Fit, it is my "Brick Tank" 3 complex shields 1 Enhanced Damp 2 Enhanced Shield Regulators Adv ARR Flaylock Pistol Basic Cloak Proto Nade (I think...it might be the M-1 Nade)
3rd Fit, This is my "Hack this ish behind everyones back while they are surrounding me" fit 3 Complex Codebreakers 3 Basic Shields Cloak Adv ARR Flaylock pistol No nade and no second equipment
4th fit, This is my "F U, CCP made a scout logi but sometimes I hack too" fit. Remember this uses the LP points 3 Complex Shields 1 Enhanced Shield Regulator 1 Enhanced Damp Cloak Rep Tool nanites Adv ARR Flaylock Proto or Adv Nades
Your fit that you posted just will not work because melee will uncloak you. It's better to use shields so a stray bullet doesn't kill you in, practically, a single shot. Not to mention when cloaked you are still getting hit by splash damage from Mass Drivers which I learned real quick. Shields dampen some of the damage. This is SUPER important. Don't give them free kills by being careless with your HP.
I love hacking. It's a huge part of my game. In addition when using the brick tank version you can **** people while they call in a vehicle, hack it, and then take it into their red so they know you did and let it get destroyed before they can get to it. |

Edit: Does anybody know if the 454 damage is right? I don't think protofits.com is taking the stacking penalty into account...
I know melee will uncloak you, but it gives you that split second to do damage while completely cloaked, otherwise the enemy will hear you uncloak before you fire a weapon.
I tested a version of this with my Scout M/1-Series character and you can actually charge your knives fully by the time you're uncloaked.
What you're not realizing is at 454 melee damage, any scout will be dead before he knows what happened with that second punch, and most medium suits will also be dead.

I wouldn't worry about scanners much anymore.
You only need to hide from the Caldari Scout level 5 skills. I doubt they use precision mods most of the time. Most I've seen prefer shield extenders. |

These are wrong. Scout precision is 40 now, this uses 45 db ie what the logi actually scan at.
With 1 complex damp and a cloak a Minja is easily picked up by a Caldari scout with 2 precision mods.
Damps have stacking mods, same goes for enhancers. |

I'd read a rumour they were adding things like scan, precision and range to the stats in 1.8, but it ain't there :(
Would clear soooooo many things up and be sooo damn useful. One day. |
