Why do scouts get 2 weapon slots?
I mean seriously,logistics,the work horse of the battlefield gets 1,while the suit below them in the suit food chain gets 2.

Shouldn't they be limited to just a single sidearm slot?
It's the recon unit it isn't supposed to be able to overpower any other suit.

It really sucks that the suit with the most responsibilities,and least survival rate has only one weapon,and 0 adequate defenses.
While the suit that's supposed to be the least combat effective can OHK them, and get away completely unseen. That is in no way balanced...

If you're a logi what do you need a weapon for anyway? I reckon they should remove all weapons slots from logi suits, you already have twice the hp potential of your racial scout +less base HP than your racial assault suit.

What do you need a weapon for anyway, you should be too busy, dropping hives and stuff to shoot at anything.

Lol,you're an idiot and your "reckoning" proves it. Much of the times logis are abandoned or singled out and you want them to have 0 defense? Tell me oh reckoning wise man,what's a logi to do in an extended gunfight after they've run out of deployables? Pick their butt cracks? You have obviously never played as a logi and yet you boastfully post your retardation as if you know what you're talking about " and stuff" LOLOL.

Ppl where saying the same for them "only sidearms for logi". How did they fix it ?? With the bonuses. How they will fix the assault scout ??? wtiht the bonuses. Again best thing to do is reducing the CPU/PG bonus for the cloak !!! This was just a general thought. Just like logis used to have reps and they "didn't" belong. Lights being more combat persistent makes even less sense,AND they even get an extra eq slot without sacrificing a weapon for it. While on the other hand Cal Logis only get 2 at standard and 1 light weapon. Anyone can see that 1 being lighter not having to sacrifice and one built for the burden yet having to sacrifice is very messed up.

My avg weekly KDR was +6 so GOML But seriously, if you want a logi with a sidearm, pick the Amar Logi and STFU Oh so you spent all of 1.7 as a logi,and that negates my point how? What suit do you run in 1.8? I bet it's a scout. John 15:13-Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

It is just plain stupidity to even think about removing such slots without considering doing the same to other classes. In that case,scouts should be limited to EWAR mods and melee attacks. See i can be stupid too. Light are light because of their lack of weight,it's simple common sense.... Someone that runs track can't just bench press 500lbs. One has to suffer,capacity or speed.

You say "skill" but if i had a backup weapon to switch to instead of reloading i'd be pretty skilled too. John 15:13-Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
