LMFAO

Preface:
I've been playing Gallente scout for a long time. My fit always consists of Range Amplifiers and Precision Enhancers.
That leaves me little to none shields/armor. But I can SEE!

Though yesterday, I got pissed off having so little tank buffer that whenever somebody even looked at me, I was down.
Ok, change to Assault... Blap. Commando? Shocked

BLAP BLAP.

And then I went and made double dampened, cloaked shotgun scout, which, I have really never before played with truly.

No SP at all in shotguns, mind you. No matter. Militia shotgun to the face gives the hurt really nicely.

It was stupidly easy just to run to the reds and blam away.

LOL I say.

If you can't win em...

No but really, even for me, who is not the greatest player (but luckily I've been here long enough to have SP) it was eye-opening.

Nobody sees you, you're fast as hell, your alpha damage is greater than mule kick in the nuts.
Where's the downside?

OH I KNOW! 'But but you sacrifice HP tank for damps/speed...'
Yeah I know, but you don't need it when nobody can see you.

Lol

Now there nearly 8~10 scouts fighting the front lines or in places they dont need to be. You move to fast most of the time in cqc and your first shot is a kill. Yall need to take your scouts and play the roll correctly.

Kind of the way I do when I use REs. I've been waiting for the nerfhammer to be applied. Alas, it's not happened yet.

Scouts with shotty confirmed OP also 123 likes (1 - 2 - 3 :p) "That's what I like to see, 0 kills and still #1!" MPT Vet. 514 lottery tickets half off!

I feel cheap and dirty when I strap on a scout suit and I don't shotgun and I don't cloak. If I go 30-0 in a scout suit it's not even satisfying, when I do that in an assault suit it's pure joy.

Blueprint For Murder Immortal Guides 212	Posted - 2014.11.07 08:27:00 - [6] - Quote They are not exactly op by themselves the speed, jump, ewar of a scout make them a i win button. My first week playing I was going like 14/2 with the combo it is completely skill less. I want so much for ccp to make scouts side arm only the tears would be amazing when all of the scrubs have to learn to play. Not to mention the game would have real fire fights. Check out the film Flame and Citron it is amazing! Wizard Talk

Although if you miss with the PLC you are a lot more in the ** than you are with a shotgun as with the shotgun you have 7 more rounds to go.... (hence why I hope I can get my hands on some dual shot plasmas in a couple of weeks for that event :D ) "Also I think knives are a good idea, big fk-off shiny ones" "Guns for show, Knives for a pro" MY LIFE FOR AIUR!

BTW, F U and your Plasmascout couple of days back. How many kin cats do you fit? You were unbelievably fast and sneaky. I'm thinking not even fitting a cloak after two damps, it seems people are really blind to you anyway. Also points in SG and there we go. Ridiculous. Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful.

Work it out. Do not try and bend the K den. That's impossible. Instead... only try to realize the truth. There is no k den.

Why resurrect a dead thread that 1.10 affected so significantly that the thread is no longer relevant? Did you get bitten by anyone named Random Redberry lately? Thunderbolt. verb and noun.
