I'm very surprised to see Doc DDD being a little b*tch. Such rage there. Probably why he hasn't set foot outside a vehicle in so long.

You went all, "OMG I HAVE CAPS LOCK! THAT MAKES ME IMPORTANT!"
Seriously though, you can see my current opinion on the passive vs active scans in the Charlie EWAR thread, I don't think the Gal-Logi should have a bonus to precision that's better than the other Logistics. I like the current proposed value of the Focused Scanner being better than maxed out passive scans.
I liked pre-1.8 when no-one knew passive scans were shared. When I could stack 3 precision mods on my Logi suit and detect almost every scout. When Assault suits could participate in Stealth.
Removal of shared passive scans should help Medium Frames out while flanking.
It should make Active Scanners useful- not OP like before and not nearly useless like now. It won't make them useful in their current iteration because the Gal-Logi bonus to precision needs to be shared across all Logistics but that's more of a Logistics issue that they need to have a comprehensive EQ bonus that makes them better with all EQ instead of just 1.
Did you see the current thought (not yet proposed) of increasing fitting requirements of regular plates on Light Frames to disincentivize them? Would that affect your opinion if Scouts could not use both Plates and Dampeners at the same time? Without removing slots to still allow things like range amps, codebreakers, repair modules, shield regulators, kinetic catalyzers or cardiac regulators?
I want to run a double-dampened assault or logi again and not have to worry about it being useless, I want the option to not have my position displayed for an entire team when I want to try flanking. My opinion on removal of shared passive scans has very little to do with any of my 4 scout suits and has more to do with my 4 logistics and 4 assaults that I run
I am sorry I smell bad, the perfume had a really pretty flower and with a name like titan aurm I thought it would be really cool.

No, I don't mean homogenizing Logsitcs skills, I mean each one has a bonus to every equipment. There are two parts to all EQ bonuses. The Gal has Precision and Duration. MN, CA, and AM should all get precision but only GA gets Duration. AM has number of uses and speed. so give all logistics increase usage. same for the other two. It means that Logistics are the choice for using support Equipment.

Doc DDD wrote:Dampeners on a logi or assault would be nice, the problem is that lvl 5 gal scouts with one dampener, plates, Kincats, cloak and shotgun make it nearly mandatory to have someone full time scanning to stop the bloodbath. It's not uncharacteristic to see those cloaked flankers average 30 kills being invisible 90% of the time.
Removing cloaks would do more for making fewer people run multiple precision enhancers than removing shared scans. Then you would see more dampened assault's, logis, and heavies. But that is never going to happen. Instead we have invisible scouts that are also invisible on tacnet, one or two shotting you from behind, necessitating a squad mate to sacrifice most of their ehp for sensors, only to be met with cries for the nerf bat from the perpetually invisible shotgun flankers.
After active scanners were nerfed, shared tacnet became the only thing keeping dampened gal scouts in check, which has the side effect of making dampened medium suits a waste.
How would you fix this without having every match turn into " let's find one of the 16 cloaked gal scouts on the other team before they one shot me "... ?
How about you try leaving the hyperbole behind and use one of the many scanning tables available, because it just sounds like you're making up numbers to suit your need and creating a narrative so people think you have some reasonable argument to justify a dependence on permanent visibility.

So you're problem here isn't that cloaks exist, that dampening exists, but that stealth play is viable?

The counter for stealth is called visual awareness.
