That doesn't mean when scouts run together they can't overwhelm you with sheer speed and ganking power.

Sorry but I'm not convinced. Keep huddling close by your slow HP stacking buddies while the scouts circle around you like birds of prey.

There's a reason I chose Scout over Assault. It's simple. Kill the enemy so fast they don't know what hit them.

You are not dampened at all in those fittings. Try running a dampener and watch how much more effective you become.

Also I want to know how you have 450 armor and 20 armor regen with 7.7 sprint...?
Two ferroscales does not give you that much armor, and you take up two low slots by giving yourself 20 regen so I'm very confused.

It would be best if you stuck to trolling the locker room with threads like your previous thread.
Calscouts do not have a broken hitbox either, it's only because they can shield tank and have fast speed at the same time.
Get educated on this game.

My only issue with scouts versus assaults is their extreme versatility. This comes from their pg/cpu, 2 weapons, and two equipment slots.

They can run logi and assault roles at the same time if they want or make one heck of a logi.

Scouts should have 1 light weapon and 1 equipment slot. Cloaking shot gunners should be a cloaking shot gunner ONLY not an ammo toting SMG slayer at the same time. < Only as example

Aww how cute a scout complaining about scouts being barely nerfed... In reality scouts should be a recon unit who does not have those "Wallhacks" I keep hearing about, they should be the ones to sneak around dropping uplinks, killing snipers, informing that scout's squad about where a objectives weak spot is... not running around going "YOLO" and insta blapping every person they see!
Assaults should be the only ones acting 'slayer' (Commandos maybe, but they seem to enjoy redline sniping more)
Scouts should be the only ones used for recon
Logis should be keeping their team alive (Which they are forced to do, thankfully)
Heavies should be defenders (Exception is the Commandos.They also happen to have become a common 'slayer' class)
Frames should be given freedom to choose, IMO

Scouts themselves are not at all OP, they are fine without the shotgun, but I myself find them wielding a shotgun good if they are using it when necessary and not for 'slayer' fits

Hi King Checkmate. This answer comes from a real assault. I currently have 3 of the 4 assaults to Level proto and only, always run assaults, even in PC where assaults are so underused.

I know very well how you can Fit an assault, I know very well the Fit you posted, I tried to make similar fits with scouts suits on protofits and they cannot reach assault's hp.

But: EWAR! Scouts are slightly worse than assaults in terms of hps and dmg but they can see and they are invisible.

If You d ask to any player of any fps what he would give to be able to have a perma radar with a range of 30 mtrs that can see almost everything (except scouts) I m sure they would happily give you their mom.

You said the scan isnt that good, but it is... No, it is better!

You have a range of 30 mtrs in wich you can See assaults logis sentinels and Commandos, you can See where they are, where they are locking at, you can also abuse of wallhack!

If this isnt enough you are aslo invisible to enemy passive and active (up to proto scanners!!!) without any effort! You dont have to sacrifice a single module.

You are also faster, with a better hit box, with 2 equipments and with a thing that let you be "invisible".

Scouts are OP, maybe not absolutely OP, but they are, like heavies are... Why is it that you only see scouts and sentinels in PC?

Have you tried the Amarr scout, armor tanked with precision mods? My buddy got it tanked at over 600 armor, while being able to scan everything bar double-damped scouts running prototype cloak fields. The Gallante scout can tank more, but cant see well. My Caldari scout tanks at 451 shields, with 2 dampeners and a cloak field, and i survive...but can't see anyone dampened

So, in theory the scout ak.0 is better than an assault: Can see everything, can be dampened whilst running 500+ armor. Would you rather this ak.0 scout that can't get surprised and can still stealth attack AND tank? Or your assaults that can't see, are slow, can't stealth attack but can tank.

Scouts need to lose the second equipment slot. You should be able to cloak or RE me but not both. They need some drawback there is no role they can't fill, I haven't used my logi since scouts were buffed, there is no point, you're just going to lose an expensive suit to a shotgun in the back. Besides that I can just use a scout suit to use nearly as much equipment as I could on a logi anyway.

EWAR modules should not have diminishing returns in regards to stacking,

Sacrifing EHP should be rewarded.

blabla , bla ba

Exactly, why I'm mostly running assault now.

I've observed that Scouts not running NK or SG, that get the drop on me, they can't handle the adverse reaction because of sheer eHP difference. Simply put, they can't last long enough to get the kill.

A good example is the match the other night when I was facing you. You killed me repeatedly in my BPO fit. I could not get you off that objective unless I met your proto with my own. Even then I was at the disadvantage with the shield suit. And halfmy team quit mid fight, when I was trying to do crossfires with them... even though we were WINNING.

A good match, we won, but there was no incentive to fight. I lost 3 pro suits.

Assaults are in a very good place right now.

bla blabal , blabal.
