First of all, sentinels and commandos have the same EWAR stats. The same goes for logis and assaults. All unskilled scouts also have identical stats.
According to protofits.com:
- Dampening lv5 makes heavies invisible to other heavies with level zero precision
- Precision lv5 allows heavies to scan mediums with level zero dampening
- Range lv5 increases from 10 to 15 meters
It's a bit different for mediums:
- For mediums with no modules, dampening and precision skills are directly proportional to each other; ie. lv1 precision will scan lv1 dampening but not lv2, and lv5 dampening can be scanned by lv5 precision but not lv4
- Dampening lv5 with no modules still can't get under a scout's default precision
- Precision lv5 with no modules still can't scan a scout's default scan profile
- Mediums will always scan heavies with no modules regardless of skill level
- Dampening lv1 and higher cannot be scanned by heavies with precision lv5 and no modules
- For some reason a medium's range is just as bad as a heavy's... 10 meters
So I've noticed something weird. Scouts are the kings of EWAR... but their range (20 m) really isn't that great compared to a heavy, unless it's a Cal Scout.
Would YOU throw on a range amp and precision enhancer for your heavy fit, so you could pick up any heavy or undampened medium suit? Sounds nice to me for pub matches at least.
To be honest though... it sounds to me like skilling into EWAR for the bonus to ALL your frames not just scouts... Is pretty pointless. Without the MODULES, all you'll be able to do is scan out skilless scrubs.

I'm thinking EWAR will be worth it on my logi for this purpose. With a precision mod or two on I could even scan lightly dampened Min/Amarr scouts who try to sneak up on me.
Quote:I think why also sometimes heavies will sneak up on you is because I don't think the passive scan check is very frequent. If it's like a 10 second interval that would be plenty of time for even fatties to sneak up to you given how low the range is.
No, I swear this is a lag related issue. Someone was complaining about this in my squad the other day and I never get lag, likewise I never have a problem scanning on my scout characters. Especially my Gal Scout alt.
Maybe I'm just not noticing it but I doubt it. I defended a single point in a city map while my entire team was losing with just me and a blueberry heavy. I could see EVERYTHING that came in the room to try and get our objective.
