what do u use?
There is no obvious best.
Personally:
Scout C/1
2x complex shield extender
1x basic precision enh
2x basic range amp
'Dren' SG
N7-A Magsec
Flux grenade
Basic cloak
Compact nanohive
I think everything on there is self-explanatory. I know the basic precision enhancer does nothing at all for me, but I can't stand leaving empty slots, I have no PG left, and it's not exactly an expensive module.

Oh and the cloak of course.
Once you've got those two you can use the suit pretty much however you like. It's basically an assault suit with everything made easier. But shields dont do as good as armor
WRONG. For a super-effing-obvious reason. As a scout, you can engage and disengage at will, especially with good passive scans. Combine this with the fact that you're literally invisible while standing still cloaked (I've had people run into me, look surprised, then go around me without figuring out that it was actually a cloaked scout), and the advantages of shields become obvious.
400 shield proto Cal scout is out of shields? That's fine, leap around a corner and hit cloak, then STOP MOVING. 99.9% percent of people will assume you just ran away. Stay cloaked for 13 seconds and you're back at full HP and ready to re-engage. I've whittled down a GK.0 HMG heavy using a magsec this way without ever going more than 20m from him. It took 3 cycles of this process, but ultimately there was nothing he could do- I was in control the whole time.

Bam...light assault that can cloak like a champ....works better with higher core skills
The armor rep is a waste, if they've broken your shields, things have gone horribly wrong anyway. Scan range enhancers are much, much more valuable use of a low slot.

I get where you're coming from, but have you actually tried range amps? With Cal Scout V, it's everything that was broken about 1.7 and earlier scanners, without taking up an equip slot.
