Aiwha Bait Max-Pain-inc Dark Taboo 3	Posted - 2014.09.29 17:37:00 - [1] - Quote I feel that the game has become overrun by scouts with their damned Nova Knives and Bolt Pistols (Shotguns too, but not as much, I dont guess). I've been thinking about setting up an Anti-Scout suit for awhile now, but didn't know what I should throw on it. I had heard Gallente assault was a good suit (for the armor, I suppose) with a Breach Assault Rifle (dunno why that particular AR). Anybody else have any suggestions?

You can trade the damage mod for an extra precision, but I prefer damage mods.

Vell0cet Vengeance Unbound Dark Taboo 2301	Posted - 2014.09.29 17:52:00 - [9] - Quote I'm in the process of skilling into this role myself. My plan is Amarr scout with an assault rifle, with precision enhancers and range extenders. This fit would require you to stick close by to your squadmates since you'll be fairly squishy. I'm thinking the AR is a good choice because it should work well in the ranges where your passive scans are effective, and it has a pretty balanced damage profile which makes it ideal for killing Caldari scouts as well as the rest. The ScR's overheat makes it less ideal for fast strafing/cloaked targets in mid-to-short range (like 10-30m). The other option is the GalLogi with high-end active scanners. Best PvE idea ever!

DeadlyAztec11 Ostrakon Agency Gallente Federation 5389	Posted - 2014.09.29 18:04:00 - [13] - Quote Honestly? Just get yourself an Ion Pistol. They may not one shot kill heavies but they are a scouts worst, if least expected, nightmare. You can still carry your regular primary and modules; just change out your sidearm. Learn to separate the morals from the Muhla.

I swear by my BK-42, but the range sucks, I think. I love that thing as if were my kid. I think the Rail Rifle is better for distance than the Combat Rifle though. Lot more powerful too. I just dont like the fact that it has the delay after I pull the trigger.

Another great anti-scout tactic is joining a squad and staying with the group I'm so helpful.

Yes it maybe a scout, but it could be a different race. OR it could be a scout running different mods to pick up the dampened scouts. or Dampening themselves more to stay under radar. That is a counter measure. OR run a Gall logi which nothing is going to get under I believe.
2Berries Ghosts of Dawn General Tso's Alliance 330	Posted - 2014.09.29 18:59:00 - [25] - Quote If you want anti-scout without running scout then gal logi with scanner, higher tier the better. Suggest gek or mass driver for weapons. If running scout, C/1 with 2 range amps, 2 precision mods. Put a rail rifle on to take advantage of the distance tacnet provides. Beyond that, a nice surrond sound headset. I run the C/1 noted above often & there are only a couple fit options that get under my passives, but all of them make the same sounds. Footsteps, decloak sound & reloads, a players ability to manage these susually seperate the scubs from the skillful. Have you considered a career in costumed aggression?

FW tends to be easy mode with all the assaults as well as heavies. Maybe 2 scouts out of every 20 matches or so. However, by your logic, nothing will ever scan a non-caldari about that has all its lows filled with CPX Damps.
