Here are the "weapon bonuses" that assaults get:
Bigger clip size (Amarr/Minmatar)
Recoil reduction (Gallente)
Faster reload speed... lol (Caldari)

I still speed tank mate =p

i dont mind the new maps. Make my own cover. blueberries are excellent for this!

Hit detection glitching.

I will need to see someone at CCP that states the scout's role is solo and engage the enemy one on one. I'm pretty sure they never have. That's an idea you have in your head about how scouts should work that probably happens to be your preferred playstyle.


The ability to fit cloaks easier and strafe-dance to become invincible still outweighs the assault bonuses.

Literally every time there is a change to a scanning mechanic we have scouts crying all over the forums about how dead the class is.

It's really cute.

Lol, he says get goodGǪ needs a cloak.

Real scouts from before the cloak say scouts are fine as a scout and not as a pre-packaged ninja assassin with the cloak.

That's who.

Good to see you back around King, though I was surprised to see you rocking a calscout last night.

On the whole subject of them being nerfed, scouts are still the best flankers in the game. Last night alone I was able to bag 4 guys in under 2 seconds with NK's in a 300ehp suit all because they didn't know I was there till it was too late.

They still outstrafe everything that's not also a light frame and their smaller hitboxes can allow them to literally weave through heavy fire if they have that skill down pat.

Ran up to a gal scout today, prototype; shotgunned his face off. Never saw me approach from his peripherals.

I had scanned message too and was not cloaked.

Scout harder.

In my opinion you Scouts are still too damn op. All you do is strafe, strafe, RE, and more strafe! Not cool. -_- (No disrespect)

It depends on the map, but i have tried this on my scout ck.0:

---

3 Complex precision enhancers
1 Complex shield extender

---

1 Complex ferroscale plate
1 Complex dampener

---

1 Six kin assault combat rifle
1 Ishokune nova knives

---

1 ARN-18 cloak field (escape tool)
1 Viziam stable drop uplink

---

1 Flux grenade

---

I use this fit on particular maps, and it really works. You rarely cloak up unless you are attacked by several enemies (i have had some crazy escapes), the precision enhancers mean that you don't get caught by shotgun scouts and the dampener can be swapped with another plate if there aren't scan scouts/logis around.

On an outdoor map i just completely max out my caldari scout full tank
or
run an assault suit

scouts are the easiest thing to use in the game i have been killed by tons scouts left and right, yes i have also played as scout and when i do its no effort easy kills left and right. there have been times when scouts run up to me i open fire and what? im dead? oh look the scout that filled the HMG targeting circle didn't take enough damage from the 35m distance it took to get to me, so i say to you check mate there have been times when as a scout Ive been caught with my skirt down trying to get a hvy or some other frame because i wasn't paying attention "why are you complain instead of getting good? " also if you cant avoid a HMG at 45m don't stand still?

Thanks for your exclusive POV, scout. One day when you play other roles you will realize 90% of this game has become defense against scouts.
