And I'm not talking about racial weaknesses here. Every dropsuit has a racial strength and weakness, not just Scouts.
Scouts are weak to
- Alpha damage
- Suits with higher HP
- In some cases other scouts
And that's about it. Scouts can strafe or retreat/recover more effectively from any of what I'm about to mention below.
Mediums are weak to
- Alpha damage
- Sustained fire, especially the slow ones
- EWAR
- Being outnumbered
- Being outranged
- Cloaks
- Logis are weak to everything
Heavies are weak to
- Sustained fire
- EWAR
- Being outranged
- Cloaks
- Faster suits
- Suits with better regen
- Other heavies
If I missed something please tell me |

lol, sniper rifles ARE alpha damage weapons. hence why their DPS is low and they take a while to kill heavies, but can one-shot scouts.
Even if I added the 3 things you mentioned, that still only makes 5 things scouts are weak to. The others still have more weaknesses. The reason I didn't include them is because scouts have the easiest time with those things. They can run and hide, not to mention regen from, those things the most effectively, as I stated in the OP.
And splash damage still counts as alpha damage, as does fall damage. |

that falls under the "other scout" category and i also stated this was not based on race |

scouts have the best speed and recovery. which gives them the advantage against sustained fire and being outnumbered.
did you notice i did not put being outnumbered on heavies either? that's because they excel at crowd control. |

Recovery doesn't means squat when your HP is so low that you are killed before you can even find cover, much less recover from the damage.
hence why i put alpha damage as a weakness
let us not forget that scouts had as much HP as assaults before they were buffed and that HP stacking is still prevalent on scouts. for example now that caldari has no precision bonus but still has innate range and dampening, he can stack shield modules on his high slots.
honestly people i am not the one complaining here. you are. i am just making logical points and you have yet to refute them. try not letting your emotions get in the way of reasoning |

They are laughable.
You are wrong. A standard sniper rifle does 209 damage. Against an armor based suit, combined with a headshot, you could easily one-shot even a proto gallente scout.
Advanced only does 219 and proto kaalakiota 229. So the difference between that and a standard is negligible. |

The only thing that needs to be done about scouts is that gal scouts are unscanable
I agree that they should have to sacrifice more for that ability. I wish they'd get rid of the cloak's dampening bonus altogether. |
