The cal scout will still be the best suit in the game for slaying. |

450+ shields, best shield delays, best regen rate, small hitbox, great cpu/pg, two equipments slots, second fastest suit, resistances against the most popular weapons (hmgs, combat rifles, rail rifles) |

The only thing that the cal scout is best at is passive scanning -- which has little applicability except as a long distance flanker -- and even that advantage is about to evaporate after hotfix Charlie (i.e. the Amarr scout will have the same bonus). The gal scout can also, through the use of his low slots, evade even the best cal scout's scans. PCs are full of gal scouts and heavies...because they are really the best suits for slaying.
your joking right? please tell me your joking. Literally all the best slayers use the cal scout |

Shields do, and caldari have the most shields

My point is the caldari scout will still be a strong suit after the change. It will also have the longest scan range of any suit. |

Literally all the best slayers use the cal scout No, I'm not joking. Just like I said -- the only people I've seen using cal scouts successfully in PCs are using them to provide passive scanning, or running the edges and killing at range (which limits their effectiveness to the squad/team). Most of the PC battles happen in the cities, where gal scouts and heavies rule, and most of the battles on the outside are a combination of vehicles and gal scouts (or a few heavies depending on the socket). Who are "all the best slayers in the game"? The best scouts I know and face in PCs all run the same suit -- gal scout. The rest that top the leaderboard in PCs in terms of kills are heavies. Cal scouts (like me) aren't anywhere near those two groups in terms of kills. Who do you PC for?
Do I really need to start listing people?

Literally all the best slayers use the cal scout yeah.... leadfoot, I kinda just posted my slayer suit on skype. It's a shield-tanked Cal-Scout with the Allotek AR Until/Unless The Assault Suits get a bonus that doesn't limit them to just 1 weapon the Cal Scout will be better than a Cal Assault that only gets a bonus to Rail Rifle Agreed, but the assault suit is even rarer than a slaying cal scout in PCs. When was the last time you saw someone top leaderboard in kills with a cal scout suit in a PC? I cannot think of a single instance, but perhaps you guys and gals are seeing something I'm not.
In 90% of pcs I do either espeon or xD3struction tops the leaderboard in kills. Both use the caldari scout. |

It will be as good a suit as any other but not more. And lol at the "longest scan range" when you can't pick them up anyway. Not to mention, the cal scouts already have that bonus so there is nothing new being given.
I think ccp will be changing it from 3% to 5%. |

I thought xD3 was gal.
They are both quality scouts, though, no doubt.
I play with them everyday. They both use the cal scout. Along with zatara, ydubbs, dwater, regnyum, king kobrah, rexero and more. I could literally go on and on. |

Im done arguing about balance in a game thats going to be dead in a few months anyway. |
