Gallente is pretty powerful, but Joel's right: Amarr has better precision - 17.85 dB. Whereas the Gallente hits something around 20 to 21 dB. Caldari, if you stack 4 Precisions Enhancers can do better than Gallente.
And not to leave Minmatar out, I've seen a Min scout beat my passive scans while uncloaked against my Amarr scout at 17.85 dB, meaning he was running 3 damps. And if it's any objective scout that can attack an objective that I fear, it's the Minmatar scout.
Each scout has it's strengths and weaknesses. And remember, if the scout starts fitting extreme EWAR, their attack and defensive traits are much lower than those who fit battle scouts.
With your suggestions, you run the risk of homogenization: there is no king in the scouts class but there's no difference and special ability that is unique to them.

With your suggestions, you run the risk of homogenization: there is no king in the scouts class but there's no difference and special ability that is unique to them. with 3 complex dampners it is 15.85 however the max armor he would have is 87. and with a max sprint of 8.31mps. Gal was the first scout in the game but again why does it need BOTH precision and damping? it has 4 low slots. so why have a damping on it? btw CCP don't always follow their rules on what race has what. if that was the case calmmandos would have the swarm launcher bonus not minnies. btw yes there is a king scout. look at what suit can tank, hide and see most other scouts. if not I challenge you to run against gal scouts using another scout like the Minnie. but you are right on paper it looks like it would be a mess. but in the game it would be different.
I didn't word it correctly, I was referring to your changes. Should your changes take effect, you run the risk of every single scout becoming homogenized. All the scouts would be the same across the board with only small percentages of difference between them, but nothing to make each one unique to the other, except for how each scout looks.
