On another PC, I held an objective, killed a top Cal Scout player, and destroyed two tanks completely solo. It took an ADS, 2 tanks, a great cal scout, and a scrub to stop me. There was one other player helping but, no offense if he reads this since he did pay me to help, he wasn't helping much at all IMO. Gods among men and the hired help Necromongers hired are not a joke so saying I played scrubs is nonsense.
I have, on numerous occasions, held a skirm objective (pub) completely solo against "proto stompers) when On the losing team with my ADV suit let alone proto suit.
I can, with confidence, tell you that I'm not a great player. I'm a good player at best.
I have asked numerous people on the forums to run with me for AV, Scouting, etc. and only two people ever took me up on it. Will Driver (AV) and some guy teaching another guy how to be a scout who was actually relatively good. I had a terrible day in that squad. I was half playing like crap and half bad luck or bad network speed or something b/c damage wasn't registering. What is worse is that there are players that are on the forums who argue with me that leave every match they get in where they are on the enemy team but have no problem playing on the same team. It's a joke.
Anyway, the long story short is that I think the Min Scout is far more dangerous then people are giving it credit. The problem is people want to be slayers too often. I can't tell you how many times I had 2k WP going 4/1.
Personally, the only buff it should get is even more hack speed. The problem is the hack bonus isn't sufficient to keep the min scout in it's "in and out" type role.
I've shared my fits before to a bunch of negative comments. Blows my mind. People still argue with me about putting two complex dampeners on the min scout on ALL STD, ADV, and Proto suits I run. I now use my A-Logi for any assault type stuff I want to do.
I say, no one is scared of the Min scout b/c it's freaking hard to be a good one. But everyone should be scared of any good player regardless of suit. I just so happened to be scared of no suit except for people that play very similar to me or a very, VERY skilled ADS pilots.
OP, you have it right. Harass everyone you can and watch as the whiners make our suit that much better. I hope they buff the hack bonus, biotics, hp, and CPU/PG all at once or whatever it is everyone wants. I would love to be FoTM instead of the so called "underdog".
