I think there are more problems with a scout then just ewar and breaking an assault fit to ineffectually "counter" a scout does not seem fun. Removing group passive scan and buffing scanners is a good start though.

Assaults are mid range skirmishing specialized suits, with the versatility to go from mid range to long range to short range at a moments notice, and the excel at this in almost every way.
Logis are support specialized suits and thus should be the masters of support in almost every way.
Commandos are suppression specialists and thus should be the masters of suppression in almost every way
This is why they should be side arm only their ewar alone makes them viable. I have not tried it but I would bet it wouldn't even be that hard to pull off a melee scout despite low starting melee dmg.

In a world of the blind the one eyed man is king lol.. I think you are comparing sents with healers to a single scout pal. I saw someone post that pc makes up 1% of the players in dust is this proper? A gal logi can scan 18 db easily beaten by any scout even then the value of taking the focused scanner for a chance to spot scout every once every 40 seconds is debatable.

Don't get me wrong m8 this is just beating around the bush as ewar is what makes a scout and can not be changed. Therefore the combat ability of a scout must be balanced which can not be done as long as they remain in the same weapon pool of the rest of the classes. The reason I suggest side arm only.
Beats all scans:
1.One damp + suit bonus
2.Two damps
For all other scans apart from the focused scanner can be done with suit bonus + cloak bonus
