For new players.
Since the STD cloak no longer yields a dampening bonus, could there be a fitting reduction for it?
In it's current state it's nearly impossible for players who aren't highly invested into [Scout] Dropsuit Operation and/or their CPU/PG skills to make a decent fitting without completely gimping it.
I'm not saying the cloak should be inconsequential to fit, but what's the point of being 'STD' if you still need a few million SP to reasonably fit it?
I think it'd be fair considering how a STD logi can fit all STD equipment without gimping their fits...

Why would I need to HTFU?
I already have my CPU/PG maxed, and my Scout suit's been at Level 3 since Uprising 1.7 dropped. I don't even need to gimp my Cal Scout (though my MinScout does need slight gimping) to fit anything other than stacked PRO gear.
This change in no way affects me, though I fail to see the logic behind forcing lower tier players to gimp their suits just to fit something that the game practically tells them to fit.

Welcome to scout investment where the sheer amount of sp to have the tools vitally important to the role is a staggering amount
The amount of SP required to get a good Scout rig isn't nearly as intensive as an AV, Logi, or Pilot Rig.
Though again, please show me the logic behind having to spend excessive amounts of SP just to fit a decent STD fit. By the time anyone has that kind of SP, they'll most likely have enough ISK to be running ADV/PRO Scouts anyways.
Every item should be useful at lower tiers, Scouts are no exception.

Scouts have an easy enough time sneaking in for murder.
They do not need to get a cpu/pg buff to make surviving getting caught easier.
It wouldn't make survivng easier.
Many Scouts are already invested into their Operation Skills, as well as CPU/PG skills to make fitting a STD cloak very easy while still having a good fit. The only people who don't, are the new players using Scouts.
And new players are easy kills regardless of what Dropsuit they're using.
