Check the Logicloop pre-fit scout.

wood chipper or blender?

would fit a minmitar scout.

You're assuming scouts are supposed to be slayers...they're not.

It's only because the Gallente and Caldari scouts are so effective right now that the other scouts seem useless.

A competitive Minmatar scout? Hack mods and sprint mods with remotes. Nova knives for slicing up anyone defending the objective.
A competitive Caldari scout? Precision mods and range mods with a scanner. Long range weaponry to harass the enemy while still able to sneak behind enemy lines to find the enemy for your squad.

Wait, why didn't I say shields and a scrambler rifle? Because if you WANT to do that, then you should be weak, easy to kill, and easy to detect. Obviously that isn't the case right now, which is why scouts are slayers.

Gallente Scout? Shotgun, profile dampeners, range amps, point defense. You hide and wait inside an objective for the enemy to come to you. If they try and hack, BAM, dead, and back to the shadows.

Agressive scout slayers don't make sense. Scouts with 600+ ehp and a cloak don't make sense. Scouts able to see the enemy without modules, or hide from the enemy without modules don't make sense. Passive bonuses without having to use a module to gain them don't make sense.

And for the record, the Amarr scout isn't a scout. It's a light assault

Please, make a viable PC ready min scout accounting for the alpha hot fix changes...

Oh wait....

no thanks, i want to see a proto fit for competitive gameplay with proto knives. this suit has some serious issues your better of with a starter fit than a proto minny scout, and it bothers me i love to cut people but the suit is such garbage its not worth the frustration. As of now the minmitar is by far the weakest scout and has no real advantage besides the knife damage which doesnt really matter much since the suit itself is so weak and has horrible fitting due to shields and kin cats taking massive amounts of PG

It's sad to see your post get likes.
I'll freely concede that knives are worthless. You're better off with a pistol.

But the suit is king of skirmish, and everybody complains it can't kill.
A kin cat, codebreaker and passive scanning modules will keep your Null cannons blue and you out of trouble.

Stop worrying about K/D

dont use the minmatar scout, use the minmatar light frame!
i went 30-9 with it earlier, 200hp and extrememly fast!

in fact I just hopped off my shotgun guy and played 4 or 5 games all between 20-30 kills with less than 10 death.s
stop all this scout nonsense, the basic scout costs double the mlt light frame, that's it.
no real advantage, just more expensive.

sorry, i misread your post.

Knives are far from worthless, but due to the Cal scout being able to see everything in a competitive game, it makes the minny scout useless. Your little pub fit with the codebreaker LOL that thing would be seen and gunned down before it even got close to a null cannon. Don't diss Nova knives and don't comment on a competitive fit if you've never actually played a competitive match.

Not every weapon is designed for, or should be expected to perform in PC.

[...] you will need 2 damps to avoid common scans, even in a proto suit.

Dude gtfo out knives are NOT THE ISSUE its the funkin suit.knives worked fine in PC before the Cal scout and after this hotfix you will never see a minny scout in PC again

no offense man but therefore...back to the OP. What would you fit? Is Min scout viable in PC?

I don't see OP moaning about KDR. Perhaps indirectly by saying how are knives (aka min scouts) useful in PC. More a "what point is there in min scout when it comes to PC"

Perhaps this is an excellent balance measure - in PC.....what works. When you bring your A-game - what do you and everyone else bring? Coz that's basically what makes anything obsolete.

Combat Rifle, ScP, Flux nades, Uplink, Cloak.
Kin Cat, Codebreaker, dampener.
And watever shields you can fit in the highs/A recharger if you run out of PG.

I'm sincerely baffled by people's take on this issue. Are they expecting to walk their scouts right through the middle of the 1st or 2nd most contested Nulls in the match?

I've just never had the problem these people are talking about. And I'm far from a virtuoso FPS player.
