Get a minmatar scout and a cloak. Dont put any health modules on it and give it a plasma cannon and only a plasma cannon.
If the cloaks overpowered then you must surely be able to get a huge amount of kills using anything with it!

KDR is a terrible way to look at balance. Scanners were overpowered and I don't think I ever saw them on the kill feed but I drink a lot of bleach so I might have missed it. Redline Rail Gun 'tanks' didn't kill all that many people, not compared to a good heavy or blaster tank, and yet the railgun nerf was specifically because of them.

Plasma cannons are actually good scout weapons.
Give them a burst AR and a flaylock.

Pretty much just because it doesn't kill 100's doesn't meam its not overpowered. The cloak contributes to the power of scouts over other suits. You can reach Assault Suit levels of tank, and still fit a decent weapons, while still moving faster, being undetectable by passives and generally having no drawbacks.
If you want to say that cloaks by themselves aren't OP then the best way to test it would be to put it on another suit. Like my MIN-ADV-AS-BSG fit.
I get 380 EHP a Breach Shotgun and an SMG.
On this suit, it is still incredibly effective, but usually not game breakingly. HOWEVER the cloak does need some "adjustment", they hotfixed out the bugs today, but they still need to do something about quick-swapping while cloaked to get a short time where you are still cloaked with your weapon firing.
Unless your a Computer Scientist don't tell me how Game Mechanics Work.

If you watch for the cloak, it is easy to see. I have killed a lot of 'invisible' scouts....easily, with a blaster tank.

My best with plasma cannons and cloaks was 15/2. Unfortunately I wasn't a scout, but an adv gallente commando with the power of double tap so that result shouldn't count toward your research op.

Seen another uncloaked Scout I know run 22/5, and I've run 25/3 at my best without cloak on a Shotgun Scout.
Haven't seen many cloaked Scouts performing on that level, let alone beating it, regardless of weapons.
Am I the best Scout ever? No. Am I good? Apparently. Are cloaks broken? NOPE. |

Most decent to good scouts are doing that, I'm doing that more often that not (not the open desert map, too many tanks). I run solo, no teammates, no scanners, on an advanced suits with an adv tier weapon.
The better scouts i know are doing much better than i am, they can put up far better numbers on their Proto stacked builds/squads. The argument isn't that cloaks make great players better, its that cloaks reward poor gameplay by lowering the likelihood it will be punished. It also provides offensive advantages which are not due to good gameplay, which again means thst is is overpowered. Low risk, high reward, no drawback.
Scouts got a nice boost (equipment, more modules, more suits for flexibility and more roles) the cloak was not needed to give easy mode to scouts. Scouts who use skill, tactics, movement, angles, and make good decisions can put up scores without a cloak. When a scout makes good plays he can sneak up on a player and kill him without being seen, so a cloak is not required.. It's like everyone thinks scouts were never good before 1.8 - which is entirely untrue. It's just cloaks allow bad players to play well and good players to be even better and it's not due to sudden increases in skill its due to only the cloak and the advantages it provides with no drawbacks. |

This argument you keep making keeps getting shot down.
It never actually succeeds, and you stop posting in threads where people post logical counter-arguments instead of trying to defend your point. Why? Because you can't.
The cloak does NOT reward the poor gameplay by the user, it lets them punish poor gameplay by their victims. If a player with a cloak is bad, YOU WILL SEE THEM AND THEY WILL DIE. If they aren't, then YOU WOULD HAVE DIED WITHOUT THE CLOAK. |

I can go 23/0 with an ADS.
I also go 35/0 with NON-Cloaked scouts(g-1, MD, m209 Asmg)
I went 56/2 with a officer SMG and a flaylock(20 kills were flays)
Are any of those OP now? Stop balancing on what people 'can' do with an item.
I refuse to gve honor to your 'god' so therefore i dual tank.
Also i feel itchy. Anybody got a tube of Rust-It?

I'd have to question your experience with both tanks and some amazing scouts PRE 1.7.
