Damps n Speed in lows CR with NK, REs and Flux Grenades.

I recommend two damps until you get your proto suit or unless you know there's not many scouts on other side. Your goal is not to be seen, like at all. :)

You have two options from this point either stack all shield as you don't have much HP and you'll have to hunt other scouts when their glimmer runs passed you or you can stack precision and see red chevrons on those scouts as their glimmer runs by but the drawback is you're paper thin and on high HP suits it takes multiple stabs to get the job done.

From my experience with the ZN28 you need more health to survive a little bit of HMG spray when that heavy turns around after the first stab. I've only used adv knives, I imagine they get pretty wicked at the proto level with proficiency and a damage mod.

The only FoTM scout in the barbershop is Arkena. Everyone else there was running Scout long before Scouts were worth running.

Knifing in a MinScout is an absolute blast. You won't be able to fit a cloak 'til level 4 or 5. I'd run an active scanner in the meantime to avoid LOS and find flanks more reliably. And don't forget the damps!

Post your skills. Do you have your cores done, dampening 5, etc?

All I can say is take all of the advice into account but more so what is your playstyle? As I told a few scouts you can get advice and fittings but some fittings won't work for you maybe fit a few suits the way a few here have mentioned then tweak them to your liking. But don't forget that these guys seem to be assault scouts (Something I don't approve but I turn into when need to) you can be a support scout that hacks.

I normally have a speed tanker with knives and 1-2 damps or switch a damp for a codebreaker for PC or if I need to hack an important objective quickly. Cloaks are cool but take up a lot of pg and cpu on Minjas so I RARELY run cloaks and as a minja I advise you don't use cloak and learn to pay attention to the tides of battle.. Know when you can protect and when to let an objective go I see a lot of fellow minja die to stupidity(Thinking they can fight 6-7 mercs of all roles)

Also since Minja don't have good ewar ability I say stack shields but I see some people run ewar and do well but.. a sniper,Scr,hmg,ar, etc will insta kill you I recommend a bit of shields for survivability also since you are a lv 1 min I recommend a flux nade as if your dps isn't high enough and helps knifing heavies a lot easier since most never turn around after flux. As a light weapon I recommend the CR/AR as they are more versatile and RE's as your equipment (Only as last resort if you can't knife or light weapon a person)

Try to avoid all other scouts other than another Minja unless it's a sure win as they can scan us and hide from us better than we can them even if you run ewar you have to be more careful than the other scouts that do as well..


AND THE #1 RULE OF MINJA WHICH I'M DISAPPOINTED AT THE OTHERS FOR NOT STATING *Glares at Parkour, Aria, Sinboto,Joel, and Gavr1lo* HONOR THOSE WITH KNIVES! Knife duels are dying out due to FOTM scrubs.. We need to protect our code of honor!





Now get out there and stab those unworthy mercs!! o7

P.S I ranted a bit I do apologize but I take my minja business seriously and will hunt those that disgrace it! FOR THE REPUBLIC AND IN RUST WE TRUST!!!

*Sprints in* Sorry im late, was practicing new fit.

DAMPS Everywhere!

then

Knives Everywhere!

then

Remote explosives Everywhere!

then

whatever sidearm/primary you can fit preferably CR or SMG, BSCP if you have sick aim

then

shield Everywhere

then

flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank flank-

you get the point. The min scout was build for fun and masochism. Remember that.

Ask two scouts, get twenty answers.

I may have missed it but what's your preference on playstyle? You a hacker, support(scanner), ghost, or fast response?
