But it wouldn't be unfair for you to be able to scan everyone no matter how much SP and slots they devote to dampening?

Amazingly the Gal scout can't stack enough precision mods to see a Cal scout with 2 damps and a cloak so WHAAAAAA that isn't fair, WE should be ABLE to SEE EVERYTHING TOO AND HIDE from you. Gal's are basically blind, (why can't Cal's understand this, this is like the 200th post about this crap from these whiners) We turn a corner and BLAM, there is another scout. You are whining that it's only 1 suit that you have this problem with, when with us, its ALL scouts.

Because you can see all the others, or the ones who don't run a dampener, christ dude you are spoiled and whiny, why don't we all just run heavies with HMGs, and thats the only thing in the game, would you have anything to say then? Every class has a counter.

Sorry I've had enough tonight, do a search, this has been beaten to DEATH, do you want to start a conv about how the Amarr scout is ganked up? Or how the PLC isn't buffed enough? Or how tanks are annoying

Yea yea I get your point. But in all seriousness, brick tanking is hilarious fun! Just went 9-0.

Btw, I do run both setups.

If a cal scout sacrifices all four high slots with precision enhancers he still can not detect a gal scout with 2 com damps or one com damp and a cloak.

A gal scout should have to use three damps or two damps plus a cloak to hide from a cal scout using four precision enhancers. A gal scout only has to use one low slot and one equipment to hide from everything while cloaked. That is where the imbalance lies.

A gal should be able to hide from a 4 precision cal scout but it should take two damps and a cloak to do it.

I have repeatedly posted that I believe that if CCP reverted all scouts back to pre 1.8 stats 40 profile 45 precision, and did away with the cloak bonus and changed it to all scouts get a 5% damp per level like the min and gal used to have then it would balance EWAR. We would have to stack a damp to get under your precision. Also, it would make the cloak a strictly visual thing rather than needing to equip it for the damp bonus.

Would it be more fair if the cal scout could passively scan everything?

You can still kill the gal scout. That's pretty different than being an "over the top" invincible heavy.

wrong

the cal can see everthing but the gal and thats how it should be

people forget the gal cannot scan a damped cal even with both highs filled with enhancers

That's 'Cruz either they don't have skills in wear , or are brick tanked

I know its okay

these guys want the cal scout to passively scan gal scouts (and I don't understand why)

they dont get the fact that a cal scout cannot be scanned by a gal, minmatar, or amarr scout passively

basically they are trying to unbalance balance lol

you're comparing an indestructible suit to a suit that won't get picked up by ghetto wall hacks? that when you see looks like your lcd's on it's way out?

how about why cant my gal suit have batvision at 70m? i want everything, why cant i have it?

Complaining about not knowing where the enemy is all the time. What is wrong about using your eyes?

Now, if the suit is overpowered, balance the suit. If the cloak is overpowered, balance the cloak. But complaining about the stealth specialist not being detected is ridiculous.

I would prefer a game without scanners or even passive scanning, over a game where people is 360-¬ scanning all the time, passive or active. I would prefer a game where no one could be scanned over a game where everyone could be scanned.

Because the enemy not appearing all the time on the map is obviously cheating.


EDIT: Just eliminate the 25% bonus to dampening from the cloak, or at least give it stacking penalties, and it should be ok.
