Minmatar scouts can hack quickly while fitting whatever they damn well please.
I hear what you're saying, but the reality is as follows ...
1) The functions Minmatar Scouts are best suited for involve PG-intensive items.
2) Minmatar have less PG than any other Scout.
Here are examples of PG-intensive items that real-life Minmatar Scouts use to maximize their effectiveness:
1) KinCats
2) Codebreakers
3) Nova Knives
4) Shield Extenders
5) Prototype Cloaks
6) Remote Explosives
I hope this helps to advance your theoretical understanding of Minmatar Scouts.

i'm lvl.5 cal and i laugh when i see this suit try to knife me so, in my mind either lower their scan profile or increase their movement speed(not sprint speed, cause you cannot knife while sprinting) or simply raise their cpu/pg(by how much i don't know cause i don't use the suit.)
since the gal scout nerf i have had no competition ( i even stopped using dampeners lol) so please buff something to give me a good fight
Borrowed from the mind of Appia Vibbia: Several key movement metrics are functions of base movement speed. In short, an increase to walk speed would also increase strafe speeds (a likely undesirable effect).
Also, thank you for your honesty, CalScout.
My experience as a CalScout is the same.

hmmm you are right my good sir so why not give the knives themself a movement speed bonus that only kicks in when selected (just an idea)
Methinks such a feat would require a client-side update :-)
But I like the way you think, good sir.

You think you're being funny.
Too bad, you actually do run faster with a knife out in DUST than you do with other weapons.
Each weapon has a hidden weight value that slows down your suit a very small amount. Grenades and Knives are the lightest and you do in fact run faster with them.
Who was it that tested this with me. It was 3 or 4 of us. Ghost Kaiser and I were there, I forgot who else.
Oh, right. It was 3 of us. 2 to run, 1 to watch. then a fourth scout found us randomly while he was on the other side so we chased him for a while.
If this is true, then perhaps a "negative" weight factor could be added to knives such that base movement is increased when they're equipped. This could be accomplished without a client-side update.

@ Musturd
This Eko Sol guy has trolled each and every Scout thread since 1.8.
Don't take the bait. He's only here to distract.
@ Eko Sol
Mr Musturd is the Minmatar Scout. Always has been. And here you are again, as always, across the table from someone who knows what he's talking about. How can you be wrong so consistently and not be a troll? I call shenanigans.
