Having played a heavy for awhile I finally switched to this combo after the last SP event.
I ask anyone to give me a better suit that that can operate in any role on the map than this combo.
I'm not saying a heavy suit isn't better at point defense, bet with a few RE's and a cloaked shotgun I can decimate most of them solo.
Open maps, speed and built in dampening give me the advantage.
City maps 25-0 all day in pubs.
So tell me why this is the super suit of dust? |

Because CCP doesn't teach new players what a Tac-Net is... or that it even exists.. Or that it really is a fancy word for the radar and scanning.
Then CCP trains all new players to look for the Color "Red" and to follow their radar.
Then they throw the new player out into the general population and hope they figure it all out on their own, with little to no in game information what so ever... Then they wonder around wondering why invisible people are running around and loud hovering things are flying over their head... or why this person is never on the radar or lit up Red.
What all the fancy named items that keep killing them are called.. or do..
why that glowing red thing had 8 enemies come out of thin air when they went to look at it.
So when they are sitting there confused as hell... or maybe they stuck it out and are a month in and semi-confused.. The last thing they are on the defense for is a cloaked shotgunning scout that is coming in full hunter mode.
Veterans and people that know what is going on? Doesn't matter who you are.. your probably gonna die. |

Min scout + Combat rifle + nova knives + flux grenade + remotes + cloak is best combo
Everything dies, including vehicles except dropships.
Also
Heavy with a forge gun and SMG/magsec is next best, even over shotgun scouts.

Funny, a proto Cal Scout with a RR and proper screen settings (lol "invisible" cloaks) does the same for me at scything down people who try and reach a new objective, or a Assault Forge with a Rail LAV.
Anything is deadly in the proper environment.

Shotgun scouts are only a major problem when present in high concentrations (say, >4 per match) in urban sockets with lots of cover and varied lines of ingress and egress (Gal Lab, Biomass, etc). Otherwise, they're generally just annoying. Combat Rifle scouts are much. much more dangerous on the whole.
Reality is the original Rorschach.
Verily! So much for all that.

Shotgun scouts are great, especially with practice. However, over time you'll find they are VERY susceptible to lag. And unless you are running a speed/tank fit, you won't have much HP, and you'll die on the first miss.
That said, i find it a great weapon, on all kinds of suits. Most people will probably know me as a shotgun scout as I find it a very flexible role (I'll actually use my CreoDron Breach Assault Rifle if I need to inflict maximum damage however)

Information is everything. Using TACNET, if you remain invisible to other players, yet can see which direction they are facing, then you can easily locate them and sneak up behind them and one shot them. Light frames have sooooo much more information about what is happening around them that it is truly unfair to the assault and heavy classes. CCPs implementation of ewar is a ludicrous contrivance.
One-shot rapid fire weapons are the key. I can't tell you how many times I became aware of a cloaked shotty and opened fire on them, only to watch them run up into my face, as I backpedaled continuing my stream of bullets into their head, and when they reached 10 meters, shotgun bang, game over.
So, yes, playing cloaked shotty is a peace of cake. My challenge to you is to hunt and take down ck.0s. That's a different ballgame.

Proto Sentinel with HMG in a missile tank. You'll be the best AV unit on the field, and you can jump out to mow infantry down. Although risky, the combo does surprisingly well. I've faced a few players that used this tactic and they absolutely wrecked anyone that got in their way. |

Hey, LT. What makes that combo risky?

Blow the tank up, the Sentinel jumps out, slow moving and big target, especially if you are using a forge, did this twice the other week to a tanker using that combo, when he jumped out and started running for cover, I got them with the forge.

My Cloak/Scout of choice runs dual SMGs.
The Scrambler Pistol is a better Shotgun than a Shotgun, in my opinion.
More reliable, faster RoF, and that 450% Headshot Bonus...

In pubs with noobs I can do that with my BPO assault fit. that cloak shotgun is giving you a false sense of skill if you use it in pubs. Try it in PC though, see what happens when you face skilled players who know what minimap awereness is and run a properly set up EWAR scout. I bet you get gunned down before you get even close to them.. |
