With the scanning table the minja just got another leg up for knifing 
With how lag effects tacnet the minja can get I. For the kill before they show up on tacnet while other less agile scouts will have a harder time.
Or am I missing something???
I know my minja can use all the help it can get
So mad I could eat a chimichanga, swallow a marble, chug a quafe, bend over, fart, and drop an amarian from 100 meters..

How does scouts in general benefit?

/me prepares to be attacked by the lobbyshop How does scouts in general benefit? Honestly? Not much. But it still keeps them the dominant force along with sentinels, medium frames will not see any use, so business as usual. You see the original numbers at least gave medium frames a reason to use precision enhancer or two, or maybe even a range amp if they felt extra scanny today, but now? Pfft, lolno, leave it to the scouts, everyone else just brick.
I was thinking that with the extra range and close in precision mediums and commandos might be tempted to run percision to catch that scout, this forcing the scout to damp and loose the hp, which would remove a lot of slayer scouts.

Really? You expect that to matter? The original was 12m. Not to mention the medium range and long range weren't pathetic, so an EWAR game within the medium frames themselves could develop. And sentinel spam would get a slight nerf as they wouldn't be able to sneak into an Assault's scanners without triple dampening.
Thinking of the scout on the other side of the wall getting scanned and especially with logi running percision and rang???
I can see EWAR variations becoming viable, even if not the "best"

Pfft, lolno, leave it to the scouts, everyone else just brick. Really Cat? I know it wasn't as much as you wanted, but consider this, ignoring the short range scans (which is a small scout nerf by the way): Assaults: Range - buff Profile - buff Precison - buff Scouts: Precision - nerfed beyond 15m Direction arrow removal - more of a nerf to scouts than other suits Min scout buff? = no Not saying it will necessarily fix everything, or that it won't cause more issues, we will have to see. However, you can't say scouts got buffed and ignore the assault buffs.
with lag the tacnet doesn't always update quickly enough... i have had heavies shoot my minja point blank when rounding a corner that never showed up on tacnet...
the speed tanked minja could get into rang to knife before they showed on the tacnet eliminating at least part of the ewar disparity. considering lag, speed tank gives you an additional benefit, and the minja is "the" speed tanker and thus a minja buff, however so slightly...

- Amarr scouts are HEAVILY nerfed as the range nerf plus range amp nerf means their precision is too short ranged to be practical
- Min scout knifers and gal scout shotgunners are buffed as scan scouts hunting them won't be a thing anymore (in competitive play it is pretty marginal already)
I don't know all the numbers but I'm pretty sure a lvl 5 amarr scout with a full load out of precision mods will be able to scan even a gal scout running damps.
With a precision scan of 7m that goes to 10 WITHOUT a rang amplifier that's a big deal.
Gal went from complete tacnet invisibility to watching for that amarr that can light him up.
Given with they way lag effects tacnet 10m isn't much if the scout is sprinting towards you but the gal, and by extension all other scouts, can't hide with impunity in wait to ambush at a doorway.
We now have a real scout hunter, not a super competitive PC worthy hunter, but a solid role in pubs??? Definitely
Side note: Minmatar is screwed in EWAR still

The AM Scout's inner ring will range from 6m - 9m with precision of 9dB to 14dB. The GA Scout's scan profile ranges from 27dB (0 damps) to 13dB (4 damps). The GA Scout's minimum possible profile is 11dB (4 damps + proto cloak:on).

I was trying to see the bright side... But now I just feel screwed as a minja

Those suits have literally the worst e/hp totals of any medium suit in their field, which I guess makes sense since that's typical of Caldari being shield tanks primarily but also consider Caldari logis don't get the base regen that other Caldari suits get. Are you high? They can get more hp than an assault.
Please try again, they can get close at standard and adv but no where close at proto.
