Amps have been nerfed to all hell. Unless you're a dedicated scan suit in PC or something, just fit a damp and be over with it.

So I'm a gal scout. I've noticed kin cats and damps is where it's at. Proficiency in your weapons of choice helps... shield extenders are nice too cuz idk what's going on with radars. Just get there fast, hit hard and dip out.

The range of scouts have been nerfed to assault levels. You now have mediocre range. Congratulations.
Anyways, if you have another scout (Preferably Gallente or Caldari), damp those, and use range extenders on your Amarr. That's what I'd do, anyways. |

I think you guys are right, I will replace precision enhancers with some shield, I cant scan for the really good Caldari or Gallente scouts anyways

Remove range amps -- even on Amarr and Cal scouts they are near worthless now.
Add dampeners (if you're being scanned), otherwise stack HP. |

Run damps. Range Amps are next to worthless after the nerf, unless you run a shitton of EWar mods on Logi, which brings its own drawbacks.

My Gal pro logi runs to scan precision enhancers on it. 27dB passive on the suit. Not much sneaks up on it. I might not have enough time to react to a scout shotgunning me from behind, but I'll see him before he starts shooting usually. |

My dragonfly has a scan of 20 dB. Proto scans at 13 dB.
Funfact: the 4th complex damp on a gk.0 scout has no effect on the dB rating. |

The question you must ask yourself is, do you need to be super sneaky or just be sneaky enough? For one even on my hacking suit (minmatar basic scout) I only run 1 damp. Why? because I don't need to be invisible to everybody. i just need to be invisible to most. 1 Damp is more than enough. Sure there may be 1 gallente or ammar scout somewhere that can scan me so what. What is 1 out of 16?
On my caldary scout I don't run damps at all because I already have damp bonus on the suit. I rather run a plate for the extra buffer or a kinkat to either close the distance or get the hell out of dodge. It depends on which weapon i use. For the shotgun i use 1 kinkat 1 profile enhance. Again this is the basic suit. For the advance suit I just amor it and don't even use the cloak. Now if its a rifle fit then I forgo the enhancer and even the kinkat because most scout don't really damp anyways. Once you play scout for a while you kind of know where they will attack so it is rare that one sneaks by.
If the idea is to get the most out of the ammar I would put at least 1 profile enhancer. With that suit bonus you will be able to see just about everybody. Again, not everybody but what is 1 out of 16? The question then becomes do you need to be invisible if at all if you can see everybody? I would put just 1 damp if at all. |

If you don't have a scan profile of 14db or lower, consider yourself scanned. Lvl 5 Gallente logis can scan as low as 15db.
Heavies sometimes sneak up on me too. How the hell does that happen? I even do 360s all the time.
Range Amps are a waste of slots now. Learn the details of how they work in the close/med/far range system.

I fit a complex range amp on my gallogi last night, still had less than 5m radius
I only play dust514ums now. It was always more fun than the actual game anyways.
