They're focused around Scan Radius.

Yeah that was valid when we still had the precision bonus. Kind of useless now...

I don't think so. Losing the Precision does suck but with our dampening is not that bad. Amarr Scout with two complex precision means they get to 17.85. Caldari Scout with two complex dampeners gets to 15.72, invisible to Amarr Scout trying their hardest. The only thing that can pick a Caldari Scout up that is using two dampeners, which is not our Primary Tanking doctrine slot, is a Prototype Focused Scanner used by a level 5 Gallente Logistics.

Because of the E-war change, it pushes our range out meaning that we are getting more area in the 100% and 110% Scan strength. It does suck losing the bonus to Precision but Caldari Scouts are not in a terrible situation from what I can tell. This way, the Amarr Scout suit looks more attractive than just being the "I run a little longer" guy while the Caldari still has a decent niche. We can see every non-scout from quite a distance and we can be invisible to most things while not hurting our Tank much.

I think Range is more useful than Nova Knife damage given that a shotgun is a better alpha strike weapon than a knife. But I do have to politely ask: what is the focus of this thread? It started as "the Minmatar shouldn't have a bonus to a Caldari weapon that the Caldari train with since pre-K" but now I wonder if you are just upset with the nerf to Precision. Would you be kind enough to specify?

The really, REALLY fast dude that has less HP than the other slightly less fast dudes and stabs people with knives. There are a few ways to look at this: 1. "CCP is ignoring the lore!" Anger, basically. 2. It is a placeholder for the Minmatar melee weapon. Of course, I think the idea of having multiple melee weapons that do the same thing (IE, stab dudes) is pointless. If it is something like an AV melee weapon, sure, but just another melee weapon that is supposed to be used against Infantry is superfluous in my opinion. 3. "The Minmatar use whatever the have to, no matter who builds it." 4. It is just the way the game works. This is the "because God wanted it that way!" argument though. Of course, the Minmatar Commando also gets a bonus to the Caldari Swarm Launcher. shrug "This is B.S! This is B.S! I paid money! Cash money, dollars money, cash money!"
