I have been shooting at the wall in Pub Contracts this morning, and I can shoot immediately out of cloak. I don't notice any delay (0.33 sec is a very short time)

I had a dom the other day where 8 of the opposing team were cloak scouts. It was an in city map.

Many suits on my team died that day.

Make that 3 seconds, scouts aren't suppose to be able to stomp a proto sentinel

You obviously have not played side arms scout it isn't gimped at all...

I have heard tell of 12 vs 10 scouts in PC.

All you need to win is 13 scouts, 1 Incubus, 2 Pythons.

Spread the scouts out between some minnie hackers, cal/gall slayers and one amarr for reasons... and there you go.

Heavies are just RE bait and just waste clones.

Dust 514 properly played is in a scout suit... and PC is quickly reflecting that.

That's probably why Missile launchers on Pythons as a combo rank number 4 in PC kills, and the Proto XT-1 Missile Launcher ranks top 4 of PC kills, for the last two weeks

Why? Honest question.

You have 1800 max eHP, the highest DPS weapon in the game, 25% damage resistance. If we can't kill you, nothing can, EXCEPT ANOTHER HEAVY. It is not easy to shotgun a proto sentinel to death, and if you're straying along trying to be a lone wolf in a heavy suit, then you deserve to die.

I've watched mercs suddenly collapse while sniping while no enemy can be seen. Then I spot a scout running off, who had been invisible beforehand. Due to poor rendering over the past week, I've often seen scouts just disappear completely when they cloak - the blue outline doesn't show up either. 1.9 hasn't fixed that for me either.

And why not? Scouts were always the hard counter to the sentinal.

Sentinel > scout > assault > sentinel

Logi is too much a support class to be listed.

The 0.33 second delay is clearly not enough after observing and experiencing its effects. Several times now I have been the victim of cloaky shotgunners who managed to fire off a shot immediately after decloaking and are able to do it consistently.

Time to increase the delay.

cry cry cry.... this forum is a basin of tears, lets wait for another further nerf on scouts. Moaners.

You obviously have not played side arms scout it isn't gimped at all and the reason some of us are so for it is because the important things to the class are getting nerfed in the light weapon slots stead. Beyond that sg scout really is a skill less play style that subverts awareness, strategy, and gungame yet has huge benefits... It would also lessen the effectiveness of strife scouts.

Those two play styles are the reason scouts scouts get so much hate on the forums and the problem is that the scouts just say don't nerf me bro while the none scouts promote nerfs that have nothing to do with the problem they encounter because they have little idea of how the class plays and we end up with poor changes that are sure to destroy the class.

I knew it wouldn't do anything, take away light weapons.

Can you please send me to some official source that says scouts are intended to counter sentinels?

Also in what alternate universe do you live in where assault somehow counters scouts?

I dont think anything in this game is designed to counter anything, even the two things that seem to be created for a specific purpose (AV and scanning) both fail at countering the thing they are directed against (vehicles and dampeners).

1 second delay coming next tuesday. Dont worry, be happy ;)
