I'm genuinely curious. Did a bit of testing today, and it was exciting. The fit goes as follows:
http://www.protofits.com/fittings/shared/725/3228
2x Complex Shield Extenders
2x Complex Kinetic Catalyzers
2x Basic Cardiac Regulators
1x ARN Cloak Field
CreoDron Shotgun
CAR-9 Burst Scrambler Pistol
First of all, apologies to everyone who had to feel the pain of me testing out my fits (lots of prototype=protostomping).
In my defence, I wasn't in a squad.
Anyway, despite all that, I'm curious - does anyone think this is OP? It's certainly not brick-tanking, yet I am using the CreoDron shotgun with a cloak - the combination that has deemed to be the biggest sin of today's FoTM. However, I have died to all manners of things when my aim was off that one time and my 233 shields drop in half a second, and my 156 armour is pulverised in less. Also, no scanning modules = not much visibility. Many times heavies have snuck up on me out of all things (somehow?).
If it isn't, I'm certainly making an advanced fitting of this, because it is fun as hell... (Also confirms the true scout's suspicions that it is brick tanking that is FoTM, not cloak)

I would assume that Overpowered means something that works too effectively in the current game that makes other roles seemingly unneeded. I have been doing really well in these suits, Getting 18/1 and 20/2 in a few games off the top of my head. I was merely curious to see if it would be enough to be considered OP.

Unless they come up behind me, I can usually spot the cloak-ripple with fair degrees of accuracy. What I like about the speed fit is that it discourages me from relying on my cloak as much as I have been of late.
Anyway, thanks for the feedback, guys. The reason I don't have many scanning modules is that I'm still in the process of skilling into them. Being the Jack of all trades can be a real SP sink sometimes. But I didn't expect to get some feedback on my actual fit, so that's definitely a plus 
Now that's sorted, I'll be working on an advanced fitting... Might have to use enhanced kinetics but should definitely be fun.

On the note of OP:
2x Complex Shield Extender
2x Enhanced Armour Mods
1x Complex Armour Rep
1x Complex Kinetic Catalyzer
You run faster than you do usually, have about 600EHP, and have plenty of fitting space to fit cloaks and weapon (on another note, has more HP and speed and less fitting costs than full ferroscales in lows).

If you make ISK profit, I consider it a good game. I made ~300K each of those matches, so thats well in the profit range (each suit costs 110K)

'Dragonfly' Scout
1 Complex Shield Extender
2 Basic Armor Plates
1 Militia CPU Upgrade
Credon Shotgun
M209 Assault Submachine Gun
Basic Flux Grenades
Compact Nanohive
Yet despite the brick tanking and proto shotgun, you lack a cloak. Interesting dynamics, how certain things can be OP and others shouldn't be.
