My favorite fitting on my main - ADV eWAR Gal Scout:

2x Complex Precision Enhancers

1x Complex Damp
2x Complex Range Amps (OR - 1x Complex Range Amp & 1x Complex Kincat)

Adv Cloak

CRG-3 Shotgun
Breach ScP

Locus Grenade

Yeah, it annoys me when people are referring to Gal scout as 'EZ mode' and needs nerfing. It's really the ability to brick tank which is the issue (for all Gal frames - just as when shields were 'OP' cal frames were the FoTM...).

@ Smooth - if you're already considering Min scout, I can't imagine you'd feel the brick tankability of Gal scout to really be a 'pro' -
You'll lose way too much speed and only have the base passives in terms of Ewar and at that point it's pretty much an assault with bonuses to flanking.

I've always been Gal - I'd go Min, but since I rarely play anything but STD, the slot config the pg/Cpu stuff is a major issue for me - I have to rock a CPU mod to fit my complex Ewar mods on a STD gal scout. Once I get proto links, I've got a fit that needs a CPU and PG mods. Throw in the fact I don't use knives, min scout looks less appealing.

The prevalent med frame mindset leads many to think low slots = armour and high slots = shields (/damage mods) but for scouts especially those low slots are really way more versatile than highs (until CCP broadens the game a bit).

Basically, if you use NK and are comfortable enough with the (hopefully current) grid resources - just go Min and be the most badass scout you can be.

Garrett Blacknova Codex Troopers 5052	Posted - 2014.04.08 16:09:00 - [8] - Quote Gallente with 2 "e"s, not Gallante with 2 "a"s. And as mentioned, both have advantages and disadvantages. And eWar or EWAR is "electronic warfare". In DUST, it's purely about scanning at the moment - precision and range vs. profile. There's a lot more to it in EVE, and I expect that in time some of that will carry over to DUST as well, but it's unlikely to show up anytime soon.

Minmatar: Shields Nova knife Badass Speed Light weapon Hack speed Hardcore Gallante: Stealth FOTM armor tank Enough CPU and PG Range The looks EZ mode (I understand why the armor tanks) I'm a Min Scout (with proto) and I can tell you the pros and cons. Pros: Speed and Strafing - The minmatar is the best in both at this game, with three kin cats you can punch your sprint up to 11.12 m/s which is the fastest in the game, even though it's negligible to the 11.11 m/s on gal. Hacking - Comes in handy for speed hacking, and makes you very useful for PC (my corp loves me!). You can max out with 1.65 hacking speed, again the fastest in the game, and when you put those codebreakers, you can hack points in less than 3 seconds. Nova Knifing - it's ok in this build, you can drop almost every kind of player with one charged swipe (proto knives) but difficult because you ahve to be within at least 1m so if they back-paddle you're ******. Versatility - 3 Highs and 3 Lows, you can do a lot of variation with this configuration, I can't even list them. Cons: Speed and Strafing - you have to be very good/smart on how to play in order to make this effective. Heavy's with HMGs can annihilate min scouts in less than a second if they blast at you in CQC, so be careful. Also your speed severely gimps you when you hit 11.12 m/s, you can't get more than 340 eHP when you're running at this speed. Speed is also very negligible when it comes to other scouts. CPU/PG - the Minmatar seriously need more PG, 3 or 4 more PG would make the Min Scout sooo much more useful. eHP - lowest base of all scouts, which sucks obviously. Bonuses- they're too specific to be helpful in general use. The hacking is fine, but I would think the NK aren't worth it anymore. I enjoy the Min scout, don't get me wrong, but I feel i'll have more if not the same amount of fun with the gal scout. So I'll have both of both worlds I guess. "One does not simply" look for a scout, it looks for you.
One Eyed King Land of the BIind 996	Posted - 2014.04.08 16:50:00 - [12] - Quote Minmatar is definitely still hard mode for scouts. I am still doing better than I was in the previous builds, but with all the shot guns and mass drivers that seem to take less skill, and still having much lower ehp if you want to be dampened and/or increase scanning abilities, this suit seems to have more weaknesses than the other scout classes, save maybe the Amarr. Looking for the scout hangout?

Denn Maell PIanet Express Canis Eliminatus Operatives 267	Posted - 2014.04.08 18:13:00 - [18] - Quote If you want to run a quicker, marginally less tanky, and exceptionally sneaky assault go Gallente. If you want high risk/high rewards (aka hard mode) go Minmatar. That hacking speed + knife damage really can be fun. As stated above "eWar" or Electronic Warfare, deals with using electronics to provide/deny advantages in information on the battle field (should really be Information Warfare, IMHO). Some have said the tacnet makes players too reliant on it, but until cloaks came out too many players simply ignored it. The most OP weapon on the Dust Battle Field: One good logi, one rep tool, and a heavy.

Toby Flenderson research lab 458	Posted - 2014.04.08 18:50:00 - [24] - Quote I have both and the caldari haha. If you get the hack speed up then the minmatar is ridiculous. I can cloak back the objective in the research facility while the enemy is holding it down just because it's so fast and cloaks are cool. The nova knife damage is ridiculous as well. That being said, the gallente seems like less of a specialized role. You basically never have to worry too much about being scanned with the skills up and maybe a dampener but the you're good for just scanning the rest of the scouts. I use it with 2 complex precision enhancers and 2 complex range amps (adv suit). With cloaks bein so viable, you don't need much ehp and so you can fit this suit however you want pretty much and be successful. I still prefer the hack speed of the minmatar, totally changes my attitude in Dom/skirm. Also you can back the lags that heavies brig to attack you. They tend to think you're hiding haha.

The speed, both hacking and movement, are exhilirating. The minscout may be weaker, but in cqc, with kincats and some 'evasive maneuvers' you can easily dodge HMG bullets. It's great for saboteur work on installations and can quickly take advantage of confusion on the battlefield. Not having the lowest profile doesn't matter if you can attack before the enemy can react. If your only picking one for now, I recommend minscout. Two scouts proto'ed, two more to go! ((^-^)/)

I do enjoy the galscout but the minscout is so much funner. The speed, both hacking and movement, are exhilirating. The minscout may be weaker, but in cqc, with kincats and some 'evasive maneuvers' you can easily dodge HMG bullets. It's great for saboteur work on installations and can quickly take advantage of confusion on the battlefield.

I agree about the profile dampening thing, you're too fast for them to even catch you, how many kinetics do you run? *Assassination is my thing.*
