Aria Gomes R 0 N 1 N 367	Posted - 2014.04.07 21:28:00 - [5] - Quote I only use Gallente and Minmatar. I use my Minmatar for more city orientated maps where I can use my knives with little to no problem. My Gallente is for outside maps and more of an assault styled scout. (Little health but with CR and SMG with uplinks and remotes)
Dexter307 The Unholy Legion Of DarkStar 1347	Posted - 2014.04.07 21:31:00 - [6] - Quote Caldari - best Galentte Minmatar Ammar - worst
Jackof All-Trades The Black Renaissance 564	Posted - 2014.04.07 21:31:00 - [7] - Quote Pretty sure it's Gallente right now with the myriad fitting options. "Pulvis et umbra sums." We are but dust and shadow GÇò Horace, The Odes of Horace \ Omni-Specialist / Focus: Gallente
Sourdough Muffins Royal Uhlans Amarr Empire 31	Posted - 2014.04.07 21:32:00 - [8] - Quote My main used to use Minmatar before 1.8, but switched to Gallente with the current patch. It is much much better especially considering its even worse to fit a Minmatar Scout now. Gallente cannot be seen while at the same time being able to see everyone else. They have a built in Armor Rep and they have a large amount of Low Slots which are the most versatile in the game. This allows you to be more creative and allows you to really stack on the eWar modules becoming a ghost.
Zahle Undt Bullet Cluster Lokun Listamenn 1254	Posted - 2014.04.07 21:35:00 - [9] - Quote I haven't played the others but Gal scout is straight up Dust EZ mode at the moment so I will go with that one. Most tankers are like sand people. They frighten easily, but will quickly return...and in greater numbers.
Chunky Munkey Amarr Templars Amarr Empire 3811	Posted - 2014.04.07 21:37:00 - [10] - Quote Minmatar scout. You can break 3000 WP in skirmishes without even firing a shot. It's bloody hilarious watching a proto squad march on an objective thinking they're unstoppable, meanwhile you've run round the back of them and counter-hacked the area they thought they just took. lolololol No.

I have Gal, Cal, and Min. I fully expect Cal to be the best choice, in particular if (when) CCP nerf cloaks dampening. I haven't fully skilled my Cal but its bonus is great, as you see 95% of the battle from safety. It's too good not to pass up and i plan on skilling into it asap on my main. Min is garbage, while the Gal is better than Amarr (especially if they nerf dampening, which greatly helps Amarr.). It wouldn't matter if you went Gal or Cal, but Cal advantages far outright its negatives. So Cal, Gal, Amarr, Min. I would be surprised if anyone doesn't have the list the same way or at least Gal, Cal, Amarr, Min.

Arkena Wyrnspire Fatal Absolution 12118	Posted - 2014.04.08 06:23:00 - [18] - Quote I'm personally a huge fan of the Caldari scout due to the fantastic shield regen, though the Gallente scout is also a solid option. The Minmatar is quite fun too though. The Amarr is just a worse Gallente scout. It's not a bad suit, per se, but there are directly better options. You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake. EUrobro

DozersMouse XIII Ultramarine Corp 367	Posted - 2014.04.08 06:54:00 - [21] - Quote the best is a tie between caldari & gallente (both need work) if you wan't to challenge yourself and be a better scout all around amarr & minmatar (both need work) Bacon pancakes makin' bacon pancakes Take some bacon and I'll put it a pancake Bacon pancakes thats what it's gonna make

HYENAKILLER X WILL FIGHT ANYONE 718	Posted - 2014.04.08 07:13:00 - [23] - Quote gal has +3 armor rep, 3 low, if lvl 5 in scout and profile dampening lvl 1 scout is 22 dbs(meaning only best scanner ingame can find you....if it hits you) and 2 high at adv. To not go gal is crazy. but for the record you can equip an adv gal assault like a scout and possibly do much better. Im not from new eden. I dont need back up, political power or support. I, unlike you dont fear nuetral territory.

Shutter Fly Molon Labe. General Tso's Alliance 308	Posted - 2014.04.08 07:35:00 - [25] - Quote I'd say Gal and Cal are tied for best scout. The Cal is excellent at locating and killing other scouts and has very flexible CPU/PG. The Gal is the best way to take out a Cal scout and has plenty of versatility in its slot layout. Minmatar has potential to make it a 3-way tie, but it's about 5-8 PG short. A Proto Minja with NKs, a codebreaker, and KCs can be devastating in the right conditions. It's low PG just limits how well it can be fit beyond those key components, which forces it to fit Precision Enhancers over shields and eliminates most options for a second weapon. Amarr is the only scout that I don't have, so I can't say much regarding it. I think it already has more potential than some give it credit for, but I have yet to try it out for myself.
Korvin Lomont United Pwnage Service RISE of LEGION 891	Posted - 2014.04.08 07:47:00 - [26] - Quote A'Real Fury wrote: Based on forum tears it is Gal Scout is best followed by Cal Scout Not sure about Amarr and Mini but last I heard is that the mini still has pg/CPU issues. Depends on your play style. For stealth and its the Gal scout, the gal is also pretty good for Ewar in general. For combat its clearly the Cal Scout good HP buffer insane regen and by far the best passive scanning. For speed hacking the minmatar is unbeatable, and the minni has the most flexible slot layout. The Amarr can be fitted for Ewar quite well but is lacking the supporting skills a bit but he has the highest HP potential coupled with the best mobility...

To not go gal is crazy. but for the record you can equip an adv gal assault like a scout and possibly do much better. I would rather go for the Cal you can easily detect every suit in the game apart from a heavily dampened gal scout...you have an insane HP regen while still being faster than the gal scout...

Garrett Blacknova Codex Troopers 5032	Posted - 2014.04.08 08:48:00 - [29] - Quote Gallente and Caldari are the EWAR Scouts, with one being the best for tracking enemy movements (Caldari) and the other being the best for avoiding detection (Gallente). Gallente Scout is the offensive EWAR suit, while Caldari is a more defensive one. The Amarr "Scout" is a Light "Black Ops" Assault suit. Minmatar is the speed-tanked hacker Scout. With the right fitting, you can disrupt enemy lines and cause havoc for them. TL;DR version: Every Scout is the "best" at something.
Aythadis Smith G I A N T General Tso's Alliance 190	Posted - 2014.04.08 09:08:00 - [30] - Quote Best scout? The forum thinks its the Gal and Cal. Personally, I loved every minute of my class cannon mini. What is there not to love? A suit built on the idea of knives to a gun fight? A bonus to decking clones in the face? Sure punching is a little underwhelming, but nothing says "blow me" like a love tap into a stab. Though still.... That girl needs PG...

I only go for the CRU since there are most likely patrols/guards lurking about that I will need to fend off, and with their deaths they will alert their squad. Time will be crucial, so two spawn points is essential before anything else. Turrets don't matter much nowadays.
