Although weak and lacking stealth, the fit had a constant scan of 100m+ in all directions. For once, my passives could easily pick up tanks. Moreover, aside from GalScouts and other profile dampened Scouts, it was seldom that a red dot got under my radar.
I played 5 Domination matches with this fit without dying once. This got me thinking of how viable the fit could be in squad play. If I was to do nothing but run around and attempt to avoid all enemies, could my squad benefit without me having to do a single thing?
I know it's not a very competitive fit, but it does seem like it could work in pub matches. What do you think?
it's very effective for squad play I use my cal scout for this type of squad support
listen to NAV and put one damp on there to keep the cal scouts off your back when your not cloaked
IMO a scouts scans should be shared with the squad
but the squadmates should have to be within a certain proximity of the scout with the scans

And yes it is a bug. boo... run some damps Dozers, I think I briefly was in a squad with you about half an hour ago in a Dom match on that pipeline map. Did you notice if my passives were shared with you? If you're not the person, ehh.. Lol?
it was me
I didn't notice because I was rocking my own passives
but I play scout exclusively and I know how important having a proper ewar set up is

I know it's not a very competitive fit, but it does seem like it could work in pub matches. What do you think? With the exception of the precision, you can acheive something similar rolling around the map with two scanners on a Saga. It's cheaper, tougher and you'll get WP from it too.
and get a rail turret up your ass

Go with my fit:
GÖª 2 Cx Precision enhancers
GÖª 2 Cx Range amplifiers
GÖª 1 Complex Reactive plate
GÖª 1 Cx Profile dampener.
87 shields
220 armor
(More than enough HP)
You are welcome.(in the case there are enemy Cal scouts, go ahead and change one range amplifier for another dampener, still gives you 50+mts scan range.)
AND BS. ITs is very competitive, (and most importantly a scouts true purpose) you just dont know what you can do with R/E when you know every enemy position.
With a Good ACR or SMG you can wreck everything.
SMG/ACR for Med Frames and Scouts
R/E and Grenades for Heavies I believe you're right regarding the Tac net. However, being able to see red chevrons 100m out is still very useful. To test this, I stood 100m on the opposite side of the objective of the pipeline map (domination) and was able to see LAVs and enemy reds a little past that distance. Anyway, I'm surprised that many believe the suit is viable. I'll agree that the fourth range amplifier is a bit unneeded, so I'll most likely slap a Complex Profile Dampener on. There is also enough CPU/PG left over for me to equip a scanner, so I'll be messing around with my Core Focused and Quantum to see which produces the best results. The Core Focused could help with seeing less dampened Scouts, but the Quantum seems appealling for keeping reds highlighted even longer.
IMO your much better off with those enhancers
just play around with your range and see whats besr for you
