Yes haha everyone wants easy kills nowadays with the knives. And I think that's why we have so many new scrubby knifers. And yeah that day was awesome. I wish stuff like tgat would happen more often.

That's nothing. It still irks me to see scouts challenge me with a pair of knives only to blap me with a shotgun when I got close. ******* dishonorable little pricks.

Nova is defined as "a star showing a sudden large increase in brightness and then slowly returning to its original state over a few months." -Google I don't see the connection.

Knives just suck. I don't like that they terminate you instantly with no chance of being picked up. Same as the bolt pistol. Is is just me, or is anyone else getting tired of being instantly terminated by organic knives or a bolt pistol to the face. For all those new players out there, this can't be fun and if it were me, I'd probably quite this game before I even got to level 2. Keep trying cause even LVL 5 proficiency means nothing atm. I say, everyone put down the knives and breakout the proto spoons.

Knives only suck when in the hands of inexperienced players. In the hands of players who have dedicated 2 years learning how to master them, they don't suck at all. And don't you dare compare the knives to the bolt pistol. There is multiple huge differences between the two. First off, the Bolt Pistol has long range of about 40m compared to the knives which only have 2.5m maximum. Second, bolt pistols are really easy to pick up on compared to the high level of patience needed to fully utilize the knives. There is just no comparison and the knives are ok where they are now.

Perhaps not lately because of the event being a side arm event, but shotty scouts are still too plentiful to be termed hipster.
Ion Pistol scouts maybe hipster.
Or Melee scouts; hipster for sure.
Shotgun scouts are just too popular.

I haven't died to an RE in months. Typically they are strapped to the objective. Throw a flux, watch them pop, hack the point. I WISH I could throw a flux and pop a scout. Somehow they would dodge it so there goes that idea. Are you really going to bring up road kill deaths? LAVs make a lot of noise driving around at full speed. Don't get out in the open, listen for their incredibly load engine sounds, and you will die from a LAV once every thousand deaths. Warbarge strikes aren't able to be dodged. You got me there, but at least someone earned a warbarge strike All you have to do to be a scout with knives is invest a few thousand SP. Vicious Minotaur wrote:They have the same effect, after all. I'd rather have legion have a fun play style than have it removed for absolutely no valid reason. Fun for you, very unfun for hundreds of other players. That ratio is off. Just because a certain playstyle is fun for one group of players that doesn't justify it's existence. See: assault dropships.

I'm still learning the joys of Nova knives. They not only take SP but skill, dedicated suit fit outs and most importantly clones who don't check their six.
Having fun with a Ginja (Sever scout) with MLT Nova Knife BPO with three red bottles for speed. No cloak.

I remember when cloaks didn't exist. Your best bet was to avoid being seen otherwise a mean stare would've paralyzed you.

And that's what continuously kills me in every match where I don't use a cloak. Damn shotties following me while cloaked and then blap me as soon as stand still to observe an area.

It may just be me, but after three straight nights of 5 straight games each filled with nothing but PRO scout here, PRO Scout there, and ak.0 Sentinel sitting right on the point, I'm starting to become the masochist I thought I'd never be.
When compared to one-shotting, dampened hordes of Wolves or the hulk of a Bear, a knife seems rather timid.

Let's pretend the cloak doesn't exist for a second, a dampened scout can still flank me and never show up on my TACNET. Sure, I could stack three precision damps on my assault dropsuit. My tank would be nonexistent, and there is a good chance I still wouldn't see a Caldari or Gallente scout.
My advice to you, playa...
