These aren't stupid
Its actually reasonable in every way and probably should have been the way the bonuses were released so Amarr and winmitar didn't get the shaft
The only things ide change are:
Gallente scout- Since odds are CCP is taking away the armor repping of Gal and putting it on Amarr, And because people would rather carry rep hives on their gal scout than fill their lows with reppers, I would change the Armor repair module efficiency.I was thinking maybe 1 h/p sec passive armor regen per level for the Gal assault, but feel it would be too much for the scout (we don't want to Nerf or buff it too much). STILL thinking of a new bonus, damp is good at 15%.
Winmitar scout-I would take off the base melee bonus because a scout having 3 bonuses when the rest have 2, and it not being viable competitively but rather a quirck is weird. The 1% sprint speed is geniuous as the Minmatar are super squishy and rely on their speed to be effective. Further speed boost would now make them viable for PC again( as a run between objectives and setup links and such suit), and also make for some pretty funny pub matches. The hacking bonus arguably should be pushed to 10% hacking speed per level. (If you throw 4 complex codebreakers on a logi suit, assault suit or another scout suit, they are only slightly worse at hacking than the Minmatar scout with 3 codebreakers. The Minmatar should outshine EVERYONE in their class at hacking things and because other suits have 4 low slots while this has 3. A MAJOR hacking bonus is needed.
Amarr scout-Because the amarr scout is so much less dominant than the Gallente scout, but with the same slot load out and better ehp, I believe the Amarr scout should now become the tank scout to be viable in PC. Let's be honest, if anyone wants to scan something, they are gonna use the Cal scout, not the Amarr. CCP is trying to give 3 armor rep HP/s to Amarr because they want it to be the tank scout. Personally I would rather a 5% efficacy to armor plate modules per level on the Amarr scout than a range increase. This would mean more tanking on it but with its already slow nature it'll be like riding around in a commando suit but with scout stamina. The MAIN complaint I hear from Amarr scout users is that Gallente can tank better than they can. This would fix that problem. But would also allow Complex ferroscale and repair armor (can't believe I forgot the name) to become viable as basic armor plates. Amarr isn't E-war now, nor do I think it ever needs to be E-war unless you fit it that way. Yeah, you might have a 1100-1200 HP scout running around, but hell be useless with no jumping or running like a heavy. Expect a kin Kat/2 complex plate/(etc.) Fit to be the norm.
Cal scout- I think the shield recharge rate needs to be dropped as the shield Regan for Cal scouts is a boisterous 50hp/s as is, and your bonus is a slayer type bonus, more fitted for the assault suit, and we want to move people from using scouts as slayers, and back into medium frames. Not vice-versa. Because a scouts scan range is so long already, I can't justify keeping the 5% scan range per level it already has. Thus I propose maybe a 50-100% efficacy of cloaking dempener per level. Thus, with the new cloak dampening percentages 0-2.5-5 This would allow Cal scouts to use a adv cloak at between 8.75-12.5% dampening and proto cloak at 17.5-30% dampening. This is because, as a cal scout, the reason we use a cloak is 25% to be slightly invisible and 75% we want to have a damp on but cannot fit it because we use our two lows for E war or 1 kinkat and 1 Armor plate. Thus ifwe want a dampener by using the cloak, we have to use up precious pg/cCPU to fit a proto cloak, and lessen some of our other proto modules/weapons in return. The cal scout is known to be the "hunter" scout because of its ability to slay/cloak and then regen, thus it is fitting for cal scout to be the one to get a cloak bonus. And because of the lack of lows to tank, worse case scenario you are looking at a slow, 700hp scout with a damp on and ****** modules. Scan precision is A okay.
What do you think Ghost?
Hmmm. The Meta is strong with this one...
