1.) Perfectly valid. Cloak needs a delay before doing ANYTHING.

2.) There is a delay. It's just really short on the Proto RE, and most are armed by the time they hit the ground. ADV Re's are perfect IMO.

3.) There is a sound. Listen. If they are throwing RE's at you from outside audio range a still killing you, that's a personal problem.

core? thats the same for every suit.

but i will definitely have a hard time with the initial SP grind. i don't have a single point into biotics or EWAR, cloak is only level 1 and my only light weapon is the assault rifle. the good thing is I have all the other dropsuit upgrades maxed and i've got a lot of points in my scrambler pistol. so i can have the highest HP possible and run proto equipment.

ive pretty much decided to go Gal scout. if i'm going to put points into EWAR, I want the suit that has the best of everything. it even does very well with speed and stamina. i wanted it before the precision buff and now that is has all 3 stats in a good place there's no question it's the scout for me.

1. Commandos, Logis and Assaults can all use REs.
2. Mediums have more slots so they can add things to make their suit more efficient. (Shield Regulators, Energizers, and Rechargers) If a medium frame, more specifically an Assault isn't looking for ways to make their shield or armor tank style last longer than they're a crappy Assault. Throwing on one regulator/recharger/armor rep isn't going to hurt you. It'll help you die less and fight longer.
3. Scouts have only been "OP" since cloaks and new scouts, before cloaks not many people ran scout unless they truly had an interest in it. Now everyone is a scout so they can tank, gank and be hidden.
Ask any of the other scouts on this board and they can tell you how it was pre-Amarr/Caldari scouts.

Also if you're dying to scouts all the day maybe you should look around your surroundings before going all head first like so many heavies do, because they think, "I haz so muc HP!! Lololoolol burst hmg"
Use your eyes and your ears, if you have a headset use it and listen to your environment.
That's how a lot of scouts get the drop on people or even other scouts. And yes you can even hear footsteps when the person is cloaked. I heard footsteps above me so I knew to check my back every few seconds. Turned around to a cloak running towards me.

If.you don't have a headset, buy one for $40 from Turtle Beach. Cheap and effective.

I'm tired of people saying scouts are OP, just because there's a few bad apples out there that use it as an assault doesn't mean we're all OP.
Pay attention and maybe you won't die to a Nova Knife or Shotgun.

because a suit that can strafe in circles around a heavy needs HP

because every other suit in the game doesn't require you to change your sensitivity settings just to be able to ******* aim at them

jesus christ can't you people understand it's like resident evil up in this *****? like we're trying to fight this deadly genetically engineered monster that can move faster and hit harder than you?

Dust changes it's sensitivity probably. I just lowered my sensitivity even more. It was 15,20 now it's 10,15. Accurate, no oversteering which I have a tendency to do. You gotta just mess around . Before I changed my sensitivity I couldn't aim for **** with a Shotgun but it's much easier now, and since I play with a slow sensitivity already, adapting to shooting with other weapojs or.knving wasn't anissue.

And **** I have so many typos because of this damn phone.

hold on to that crutch before you fall over from all the bull your spewing. telling other people to pay attention as you wallhack with bad gungame.

No I think two sidearms is more fair. It's a serious joke not having a backup weapon. Trust me, I ran slayer logi with an assault rifle post-nerf from 1.6 to the end of 1.7 and I kind of still do run it.

Lol crutch? I barely use my cloak if at all. I prefer to speed tank or run one damp. And as a Minmatar Scout I have to make sacrifices just to "wallhack", I have to wear two precision enhancers just to get a good reading on people and since this game has other scouts that have better E-War than me, I have to make up for it by filling my highs to get their levels. Even then I can't "see" them, unless I use my eyes or.listen with my ears.

It's not easy like you think running around with 198 shields and 87 armor. If it was you'd see more scouts running with low hp. I sacrifice just like every other suit. If someone leaves my range, then I'm **** outta luck. TacNet is just a guide, it's not the bible. A good scout doesn't pay all their attention to their TacNet. They go between the two but mostly engross themselves in their environment.

Don't get mad because a Scout knows the ins and outs of a map better than you. Knows when to jump off, where to turn, where to hide and where to flank. We conditioned ourselves to go beyond the TacNet and focus on things not seen on the thing.

im not asking for it to be nerfed or anything but your all full of **** if you say the scout is not OP.

LMAO if you think running a scout suit takes any skill at all right now. i have ran assault my whole time in dust. i just put some SP in scout to see what it was like and boom all of a sudden easymode. you can see all heavys assaults and logis on the map at all times with no Ewar mods. only counter to a scout is a different scout. im not asking for it to be nerfed or anything but your all full of **** if you say the scout is not OP.

It depends on the person honestly. The typical scout would be Amarr. He gives scans to his squad. Cal and Gal is about being James Bond haha. And Min is a ninja.

I'm sorry, someone can explain to me the meaning of the word "Scout"?

Remove one equipment slot and/or cloaks at all. Discussion over

HOLY ****. what if there was a light suit that is the only one that can use the cloak, and the regular scouts couldn't?

They aren't OP.

Wrong.

25k isk invisible noobs can use REs: in any situation - when squad moving, during the storming, during the retreat.

Please check my sig, m8.

Scouts refuse to admit that they have the best suit for every role in the game and its getting old.

RE's are nullified by people who move...

The only thing they're good on is max tank amarr sentinels camping in one place.

People seem to dislike that I speak the truth. Stop insulting me just because you dislike my opinion. It's true that scouts have every single statistic better than all the other frames except HP. And mediums have more slots.

That's the only goddamn thing they lack. They even have as high of damage potential as a heavy because of REs.

You people are seriously childish. If you cannot recognize what I'm saying as fact then you are warped and not listening to reason.

Obviously if you mix and match the races it's a different story. Of course a minmatar will have worse stats than the others, etc. But it becomes clear when you look at the same race of scout vs that race's assault or heavy. Even though caldari scout has slightly worse shield depleted recharge than sentinel, it has much better shield recharge rate.

All the medium's shield regen is pathetic and worse than a heavy I mean WTF reason could there be for that? Lack of attention from CCP that's what.

Really? ))
I mistakenly thought that this invisible Assault / Bomber.
