I just hope that the scanner spam will die down at some point... If I'm forced out of my speed-tanked minja, I would consider just not playing anymore.

Scrub.
Damp your fits or go home.
I've never been without 2 damps on my fit, and no scout in their right mind should EVER be scanned.
Run damps. You're a freaking scout.

And it begins..... we shall separate the 'men from the boys'. Or should I say real scouts from fakers.
Anyone who has been a scout from the beginning knows that we have had many setbacks in the past. You will learn, you will adapt.

As if there weren't enough problems wanting to fit KCs, now its not even a viable play style.
O.K., sorry, I missed that point. However, what I stated is still valid. Whether you are wanting to run HP, Speed, etc, if you are running a scout you should have to use Dampeners or be seen on the tacnet like every other suit on the battlefield. It shouldn't be "I'm a scout so I'm invisible." Again, my problem isn't that I can be scanned whilst running kincats, it's that my location is displayed to the whole team. And until I get Proto damps, I don't see how my min scout can be effective anymore. Hell, I don't know if I even want to use it unless I can use kincats or codebreakers effectively. If I wanted to dampen, I 'd use the Gal or Cal Scouts. 1.9 will be the death of the minja.
If you get to lvl 5 hacking and lvl 5 minja, you shouldn't have to use code breakers. You will already be a hacking god. Back when min logis had the hacking bonus, I was just lvl 3 hacking and lvl 5 min logi and I could hack like a boss and the base hacking ability of the min logi suit was much worse than the minja is today.

I prefer 1.8. There, I said it. Get damps. Feel good.Don't die I think this is ok. Tanked Scouts will be what they are supposed to be. Invisible assaults that can be scanned. I do feel you Minnie Bro. I love my Amarr scout but triple dampening it does gimp my fits. So i have to choose either Damp/Scan or EHP.... But hey. It aint too bad...XD
I was gonna skill into amarr scout, from caldari scout but heaps of these threads popped up, and the caldari scout gets a 15% profile bonus. I run 1 complex dampener with a codebreaker/CPU upgrade if i am using proto links
Well, i know what I am going to not do haha

I disagree with you sir. From experience I can say.....

I'll buy that one.
Min Scout was only better than it's basic frame counterpart. Both still sucked pretty bad

Now you know how I feel when calscout skills were butchered, ruining everyone who used it to fight against scouts, and scout vs non scout gameplay was almost made impossible.
As long as it ruins gameplay for the gal and amarr scout its for the best. Those are the worst kinds, but regardless all scouts need to be taken down a notch. |

Isn't that a good thing? You should have to pick between ewar or HP. No more of this "best of all worlds" where you are fastest, smallest hitbox, invisible, and have almost as much HP as a f***ing Commando.
Yeah, if you have almost as much HP as a commando, you're certainly not the fastest, you're definitely not invisible and though your hitbox may be small, it won't matter if your strafe speed is garbage due to armor plates.
If scouts have eWar, they probably don't have that much eHP. Don't claim OP just because you get shotgunned in the back, you can't always go a match without dying.

Well the average competitive player has Gal Scout to 5, and if smart, damps to 5 as well.
I'm sorry to hear about the Min scout's demise. I was indeed planning on speccing in on it. Hopefully two damps does the trick?
I don't want to have to run proto to escape scans.

Welcome to an easier version of Scout Hell, also known as Pre-1.8.
Back then, in order to evade Duvolle Focused, you needed Gallente Scout with 4 CPX Dampeners. Any other fit and you got scanned. Get good, like we have.
Or get good, then get bad, and run BPOs, like I have. |

Yeah... I saw you rage quit when I signed on.
It's the Team Scans, that are really getting ya. Welcome to Scout life back in Closed Beta. LOL
You NEED a pair EN or Complex Damps in this current meta. As a minja, you will have to try and target the Logis and other players running scanning equipment.
Team Scans + ISK payouts + BETTER BALANCE than EVER before, are really helping the fights out right now.
The only way I can think to properly counter Team Scans as a NON-scout is to kill the scanning players as often as possible.
I trust Rattati's judgement in bringing Team Scans back, but we need proper counters.

Given the relative number of hotfixes vs patches, its much easier for them to put in place as much as possible in a patch, then balance around that. I think that is what you are seeing with the scanners.

One thing's for sure: With the mostly fixed hit detection, scouts can be hit as easily as medium frames. Took down a proto Cal scout with a hip-firing STD SMG, even as he started to strafe.
And my Gal Scout was dead meat as soon as someone happens to see me evading. Never happened at that degree before.
So the haters can put their pitchforks down.
