I still don't know how some of my scout buddies can survive with high profiles. its pretty stupid, the minmatar scout is an assassin but can be easily countered by scanners and its HP and PG is too low to survive any attacks. The amarr scout is just being misused massively with the ruthless armor tanking. Scanners aren't a problem unless someone actually catches you in their path, but if a caldari scout finds a minmatar hacking a objective then the minmatar is pretty much dead.

I've been thinking about this and i've realized that precision modules won't help you in combat, everytime i scan a dropsuit i try to use some sneaky tactics to jump and kill my victim, its most likely a heavy and i'm usually shocked instead of him. You start to see my point. Its a bit smart how CCP did this but by giving the cloak a 25% less dampening on the user when cloaked, it brings back the old passive bonus of a scout suits which is 25% dampening if you all remember correctly. This means that the scout suits have about 3 passive bonuses, 4 if its a gallante or caldari scout.

Now back to the topic, this means that a minmatar scout or amarr would have to place some dampening modules to truly be a sneaky assassin that is merely impossible since i can bet you a caldari scout is roaming around every match.
