They're so good. Although I no longer use shield extenders, kincats, or cardiac regs on my fits, my survivability on the battlefield could not be better. It feels like cheating because of what I'm able to see with my passive scans and what I can hide from with my dampening. With an ADV Gal Scout, I can equip:
2x Complex Pre. Enhancers
1x Complex Range Amp.
1x Complex Prof. Damp
1x Basic Plate
Shotgun
Assault Scrambler Pistol
Flux Nades
Compact Hive
REs
This fit still has a decent amount of CPU and PG to equip better weapons/equipment, but because I like to keep fittings relatively cheap, the basic stuff works fine. Solo play in pub matches has become lot more fun. |

Nice fit by the way. Now see this on a Caldari Scout and you got yourself a damn good cloak killer.

Does the passive scan work only in the direction you are facing or 360-¦? I'm not seeing any difference.

EWAR tanking used to be better than Brick, now people are seeing that it's viable again.

I still feel passive scans should not show you the direction an enemy is looking. That should be reserved for active scanners.

Well, I'd settle for knowing WHERE they are, but most people wouldn't.

It works 360. The only problem I have now is that I keep scanning equipment and it sometimes throws me off from seeing enemies because of all the equipment spam in one area. |

Well, that's one way to counter Ewar scouts.

It's terrible in the Research Facility during a Domination match: uplinks and hives everywhere, always blinking whenever you decide to move. |

At one time that was the entire scouts role...destroy all the equipment (mainly uplinks.) But now with all the cloaks the scout has become a hunter.
I do miss being the guy who was in charge of destroying uplinks. |

You can place more range extenders on Gal scout tho...then again that is a highly tactical decision. |

This is true, but my Gal Scout has the added benefit of being able to equip more profile dampeners and range amplifiers. |

I can't wait for those to get to 5. Right now my range is 4 and precision is 3. I just put my Kin Cat to 4 today. Ugh the long wait for things I want. :( |

360-¦ passive perma scan > every active scanner
Active scanner have no sense to exist right now and the gal logi bonus (even if i still like the suit) is a complete waste of SP.
The unnamed new build it's so secret that nobody know what will be in it, even after patch notes..

I think the active scanner still has a place for team play. A Flux can scan further than any range amp Scout, and the core focused is still useful for picking up Scouts with minimal dampening skills.
On solo fits, they still work wonders for providing intel of the general location of reds. |

Including height. So instead of a360 circle, it's more like a sphere. |

Once you get to kincats 5, you'll feel accomplished lol
They're awesome. Have you tried the Federation/AUR CPX Kincats? They're rather cheap and are helpful for knowing just how much of your suit you'll have to sacrifice to equip them. |
