Is there anybody left who uses the scout suit without a cloak or without armor tanking it? I decided i didn't like using the cloak very much and so i took it off and used the extra cpu/pg to run kinkats. So far this has been my best move strategically, i survive much longer using speed tanking and my k/d has improved dramatically. Plus it feels pretty cool being the only visible player in most matches :P |

I have no armor plates on any suits (scratch that, I believe my BPO Heavy suit used for DS gunning has one). I have some faster Min Scouts, but, I still like having the cloak as a backup when sh*t hits the fan.
I think I'm over Dust now...

Got the akimbo IP from https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=UUPMOzhVO3qpnBLGUVKCpmCw&v=0788uWYlZZ0&feature=player_detailpage
and cause why not run it?
Oh yeah, I run 1 basic plate cause I want SOME protection, I should switch to ferro instead cause mobility.

Don't hold back.

I don't brick-tank my scouts and I don't rely on cloaks.
However, I'm not stupid enough to think I can outrun a bullet.
Utility is everything; so I use codebreakers, profile dampeners, cardiac regs, and (ofc) damage mods.
BOOP!

I've got one Minmatar scout with three complex kincats, it's fun as hell having my sprint speed maxed out like that, though unfortunately it leaves no room for equipment if I want to maintain decent shielding levels and still keep my Nova Knives. I'm not quite sure if my KD/R goes up with the suit as I don't use it often (Mostly on account of the lack of utilities, no RE's or grenades to deal with tanks is a *****!))
Nova Knives are magic~

Actually, with the hotfix coming next week and clack smackdown, today I have started running my Gal scout without a cloak which frees up quite a bit of CPU/PG. I was about maxed out running my G1 series.
I am planning on using some SP from the event to take my cats and regs to advanced so I am curious how it will be. The extra speed will be fun. Question: Do kin cats add to jumping height or strafing speed? 3 month player here...
RIP cloaks. It was a fun new dynamic for all of two months.
They will come for Fatties/HMG's next.

Nitrous and a heavy shield extender on a sica, with armor reps/hardner
Oh. Infantry?
When i can even fit the *******(lv5 all fitting cores) my minscout runs 2 complex, with a complex damp, enhanced precision mod and 2 complex shield extenders.
Leaves barely enough space to fit a compact hive and a remote explosive, let alone a six Kin CR.(**** sidearms and nades)

Kinetic enhancements add to jumping height etc. Not sure about strafe speed, highly doubt it, reckon I'd have noticed having run kincats most of the time since open beta.
But yeah, there's some things you can do with the kincats you can't do without, like jumping out of complexes via crates on some maps.
You must learn honor, or you deserve to learn nothing at all.

I think Borim1r is also a speed freak with some type of 11m/s sprint scout.
I only use a basic kin/cat and enhanced reg on my uplink suits. Everything else is all about the stealth.... I'm a sneak scout. Nothing but dampeners, range and precision. If you're gonna play, play nekkid!

Plenty of players do this. I do this as well on some of my suits. 1 complex damp, 2 complex kinkats on my min scout. 10.33m/s.
The issue is that sometimes I get so in the zone to want to be in the fire fight itself I forget how paper thin I am. Not to mention that you have to be VERY careful with scrambler pistols and rifles. They will tear most speed tanked scouts apart. You also are able to be taken out by one charged Ion Pistol shot. When the Ion Pistol came out I used it a little to take care of those guys. You are also able to get one shotted by a shotgun.
Other than that. I like it depending on the situation.

I rarely see anything but armor tankers in most matches that i play. Which is why i run nova knives, one or two hit kills regardless of how much armor the enemy has. But it is good to see here that there are still a few players that prefer a challenge and go the speed route over the scruba-dub-duby armor route |
