I've been reading threads on how cloaks are OP and are not OP, on how the chevrons are totally visible. For me the're on the verge of it. since a flux oesn't wreck he cloaks, and i have to sacrfice HP to detect scouts while scouts sacrifice nothing to becom invisible, lets just say its frustrating at the very least.
I've noticed its mostly scouts who seem to be able to pick up other scouts. You can take more of a gamble on HP if your invisible i guess.Also that inate passive scan helps.
As a Winmatar Logi/high priority target i'm caught between sacrificing my shields for for precision enhancers. So, any tips and tricks? Besides scouring dust for scouts with complex precision?
Also devs, can we please have a stat listing how much precision/how dampened ur suits are? thanks

the whole ''look with your eyes'' advice doesn't help too much, because i'm focusing on supporting my squad. Easy to detect sillhuettes of regular enemies but man its impossible to detect a shimmer out of the corner of your eye, unless you are looking directly ahead in open space. 1v1 it makes sense to search everywhere for shimmer, but in the middle of a firefigt with the other team with thier own heavies logis and assauts, i dont have time to chase shadows.
Its actually easier to catch cloaks in a heavy suit, cuz you can spray and pray each room you enter.
anyways, just went level 3 in all ewar skills, i'll see how it plays out.

Thanks guys for the positive feedback. I tried the level 1 gallente scout.
I found that when cloaked enemies can somtimes look right through me at close ranges. Cloaks definilty help in evading enemies after beig detected. And people can still catch you when cloaked and standing still. Its like playing thief. Lots of adrenaline when you wonder ''can they see me ? can they not'' Maybe not OP but certainly very powerful and fragile at the same time. I'd hate to see what i could do with Proto scout.
Cloaks are still very hard to detect with my Logi Suit.Same probems persist, but hen i throw shotgun on my logi i can usually 1 shot the scouts as soon as their in the same range to open fire on me. Scouts with long range wapons are still very dificult to catch. Thats more on good gameplay than abused mechanics.
Scans are alright as long as you already know generally where the enemy team are. It just highlights them. for my squad to see. Still kind of suck.
Heavies are still the best counter. Spray and pray, especially when they start to bunny hop. MH82 HMG is my best anticloak tool so far.
Shimmer alright to discover but only when really close. Then the fight is already on.
TL;DR Hardening the F*** up.This is New Eden, after all.
