Charlotte O'Dell Fatal Absolution Dirt Nap Squad. 2287	Posted - 2014.04.04 22:32:00 - [1] - Quote Every battle is a squad of scouts vs a squad of heavies+logi. Occasional tanks get called in... Who is crying about gal and cal scouts, anyway? The cal is easily countered by one guy with a scanner and the gal is hunted by the cal. MN would be doing better if the suit had more PG and CPU. Amarr....I still haven't seen an amarr scout. The MN and AM need a buff The assault needs its bonuses changed or increased. Charlotte O'Dell is the highest level unicorn!

Izlare Lenix Arrogance. 355	Posted - 2014.04.04 22:40:00 - [5] - Quote First a cal scout can be made so only a focused scanner can pick it up. Second, a proper fit gal scout can be made so nothing in the game, including a cal scout can scan it. Lastly, this build is more fun than the last build. Logi slayer scanerinas, YOU HAVE BEEN SCANNED every 5 secs, fat suits with RRs. That was boring and dull. At least there is more variety now. Gun control is not about guns...it's about control. The only way to ensure freedom is by having the means to defend it.

On a cal scout you have to sacrifice shield tank for more precise scans and armor, dampers or kin cats for more range. And an average cal scout with one range amp can only see half the range of a scanner. You actually have to sacrifice tank, damage, speed or steath to make an uber ewar cal scout. Before this patch what did logi slayers have to sacrifice on their triple damage, brick tanked slayer suits so they could scan almost everyone? Another triage hive they could camp in? A cal scout has to choose to be a good scanner, or a good scout with survivability, he can't do both like the logi slayer could. Gun control is not about guns...it's about control.

It needs to see everything around it because it is so weak and really that's all that it has going for it , is the scanning . It can't tank , self reaping , speed and stealth is not it's best suits . Your always going to sacrifice something when using these scouts . That shield rep and scanning is needed for survivability . It has nothing else . Edit : I don't even pay scout and I could see this just by using it . Really as much as people want to talk about how crappy the Amarr scout is , I believe it's the Caldari scout is at the bottom of the pole . If you don't play scout and your core is not fashioned to support it then your better off using another scout . Stop asking for tiercide , your killing variety and the fun of this game at the same dam time .

I'm dying a hell of a lot more than when I play logi or heavy, but I've been having too much fun to care. Nova knife kills are the freaking best. Plus, throw on a codebreaker, and you can rack up WP in a match, even if you suck as a scout (which, sadly, at the moment I do). Min Logi \| aka Punch R0ckgroin, Fatsuit

Given the new limitations of the scanner (cooldown and limited angle), how is the cal scout "easily countered"? Generally, Char, your posts make perfect sense. This one, I'm not so sure. One guy (gallogi) with 4 scanners -- perhaps. One guy with one scanner -- I can't see it. Curiously yours....Leadfoot

[/quote] Logi slayer were a problem, we ALL know it. but the solution is balance, not add something MORE OP What sacrifice are you talking about? i can reach 633 EHP, could go even further if a remove a regulator and add a plate. i could even drop the Cloack to standard, and have more CPU/PG for pro to sidearm. You can even remove the cloack, but why remove a free dampener? With a 50hp/recharge shield that makes you don't need Energizer or a Recharger. a 2,18 shield rec delay and a 5.0 sec depleted shield rec delay. and all this with a 37 scan radius, and 27 scan precision. From passive skill only. ALWAYS active on 360. Smaller Hitbox,more speed,more strafe speed than assault. Sorry, but you sacrifice nothing for your EWAR capab. And all this explain why all the FOTM chaser logislayer went straight on CK0 scout/GK0 scout. MIn. Scout have to sacrifice something, 'cause his CPU/PG are low,so you can't have SPEED,EWAR,EHP all together. Guess what scout you see in low numbers?

(That is 2x Complex shields, 1x Complex Kincat, 1x Complex Codebreaker, and 12.5 for the cloak) I still have another high slot, low slot, two weapon slots and an equip slot to fill. BTW, cheapest Light weapon for PG is the Combat Rifle (8PG), and Proto Knives are 8 PG as well. That fills it up to 76/81. Yep. All I got room for is my basic flux and a compact hive. Throw on a recharger or precision enhancer for that extra high. At least the other suits can use their racial bonuses without destroying their PG I got my cloak and daggers, I'm a very happy Ghost I hack at Mach V

But if you're half-decent at this game, you're sometimes going to kill multiple people in succession, possibly with up to 30-60 seconds between kills. The free enhanced armor repper comes out miles ahead of +30 base HP in every situation other than desperately throwing one suit after another at the enemy. The strength of scouts is their ability to dictate the terms of combat- for example, attacking a heavy, retreating, moving and regenerating a bit, then attacking again. In that time period, the scout has gained more HP than the heavy, and further benefits from getting the drop on their opponent for a second time. The Amarr scout's lack of regen severely limits its potential in this role, and if you try to fit it for regen with any sort of repper at all, it gets out-buffer-tanked by the Gal scout. Nerdier than thou

You're right. I forgot that it's impossible to fit armour repairers on a Scout suit. I also forgot how they don't get repaired by Repair Tools and (R) Nanohives like all the other suits. And the fact that swapping suits at a Supply Depot doesn't let you repair your armour also slipped my mind. No, wait, all those things are FALSE. The only scenario where the GalScout has the EHP advantage is one where the EHP advantage doesn't apply. And no, the slight eHP bonus ALONE isn't enough to balance out the disadvantages, but that's assuming it's ONLY the eHP that you have more of. Stamina is worth a LOT to a good Scout when played correctly. If you use that advantage well, it's HUGE.
