It DOES have precision.
The reason it has a bonus to precision is because of its limited number of High Slots.
Similarly, Caldari have a dampening bonus because of their limited number of Low Slots.

Makes it so unbalanced against Min Scouts - - which need to literally use all of their low slots to hide from it. Give Gal Scout something else - - like damage buff to shotgun (just as min has damage buff to nova knives).
All in favor, say I. I and many others hate shotguns and would never have gone near the gal scout if it wasted a bonus on shotguns. Swapping out the current gal bonuses for shotguns would be like stealth nerfing the min scout knife bonus and giving a mass driver bonus or something instead. So no. get rid of my knife bonus and give me EWAR and ill be happy

Not to be trusted. Keep the knife bonus.

Wrong really?
Look here.
This is what you will find.

Can someone explain to me the thinking here?
What will its effects be? so it can get decent precision with their 2H slots, if that's what they want. Its a supplementary second skill to make sure all of them have two and to even the playing field. that's also why cal is getting a dampening bonus.

So there you go, there was never a problem after all.
Wow, this is true. I had the wrong numbers. How the heck was I on permascan by a Gal scout then? I run two damps and a kin cat. I guess he had an amarr scout with him - - but it seems unlikely. And I didn't get the scan warning, so it wasn't an active scanner. Anyhow, I'll try the suit again later. Very frustrating.
While I have disagreed with your approach I am glad to see someone who is willing to accept reason and be proven wrong.
+1 to you.
It is also a good way for people to take your feedback more seriously in the future, because at least we know we can have a reasonable discussion with you.

Its range and dampening for gal scout not precision
You have that mixed with Cal
Cal has range and dampening.
Gal has precision and dampening.

That is correct.
Tie goes to the scanner.
Also, there is rounding, so if a scanner has 18.75 dB, and a dampened merc has 18.6 dB, both round to 19 and the scanner wins.
