I'm probably a little late to the party so forgive me if this has been discussed to death already or everything has already been written in stone.
Anywho I'm glad eWAR is being shook up again, it's about time everyone got involved in this Meta.
Firstly passive scanning, scouts simply have to good a passive scanning level and heavies are too easy to spot.
- A Heavy with Lvl 5 dampening should slip under the radar of a Medium with Lvl 3 scanning (no mods)
- A Medium with Lvl 5 dampening should slip under the radar of a Light with Lvl 3 scanning (no mods)
- A Scout with Lvl 5 dampening and Lvl 5 Scout specialisation should comfortably avoid scanning from other suits (no mods)
- A scout with Lvl 5 dampening and Lvl 5 Scout specialisation should be detectable by a medium suit with Lvl 5 Scanning +1 Pro Prescision enhancer
-A Scout with Lvl 5 dampening and Lvl 5 Scout specialisation should be detectable by a heavy suit with Lvl 5 Scanning +2 Pro Presision Enhancer
This way you encourage everyone to run some form of eWAR module. Scout eWAR only becomes beneficial if you are prepared to sacrifice eHP slots. Furthermore medium and heavy suits are more likely to run at least 1 dampener in an attempt to avoid each others scans.
- Passive Scans should not show player orientation
-Passive Scans should either
-- not show a chevron above the players head, or
-- update in set intervals based on the suit size
This stops passive scanning being as powerful as active scanning, passive scanning becomes less of a full on Intel sweep and more of a battlefield overview.
Active scanning should be changed to become more risky, yet more rewarding for constant use.
- All active scanners change from a snapshot scan to a focused scan.
- All active scanners change their tag time value to 0seconds (easily done with hotfix)
Doing this turns active scanners into magic torches, as long as it is shining on a player, that player will be tagged on your teams radar. However if you loose their position they instantly disappear.
This stops scannerinas since doing that only gives another version of the passive scan, that lets enemies know they are being scanned. Different variants will then interchange range, FOV and presiscion.
In general the basic variant should be equilant to a medium suit with an additional pro presision mod.
While wider FOV variants have less and narrower FOV variants have more.
Ok that's everything I think.
They call me the Monkey - I like to jump off sh** and piss RE's all over your tank!
