So we have all heard and maybe even claimed that the Minmatar have a hit and run style of play. I suppose that is true, but there is a key element that they lack for successful guerilla tactics and that is stealth. For how fast the Minmatar are they lack stealth. You can play the hit and run strategy, though if the other team is using scanners then that strategy is null. At the end of the day is bad hit detection the only thing Minmatar users have left?
And before you make assumptions and I'm sure you guys already are (Gavr1lo Pr1nc1p ). I'd like to state that the Minmatar Assault was the first suit I ever got yo proto and the SMG was the second weapon I ever got to proto. I also love using Myofibril Stimulants and Ferroscale. I don't hate Minmatar users, I don't envy them and I am not complaining because they beat me because I myself am an avid Minmatar Assault user. So take that in mind before you wipe your neck beards and type "git gud scrb".

Hit and run isn't the only playstyle the Matari utilizes, most people just use it because it's the most fun. Though you could use some of those lows for Profile Dampeners and still get a good tank in.
That aside, I shall now wipe my neckbeard and leave you with the obligatory "GET GOOD SCRUB".

You are not even worth the lowly "get good scrub" pseudo insult.
Anyway, even assaults can use ewar modules. I should know, since I actively choose to not fit them. And still, the Minmatar assault is so versatile, you can make a fit for when your hit&run style is being countered by scanners (or better tactics, player skill, whatever). Usually in such a scenario, I just stack a bunch of plates and damage mods, because I am lazy, unoriginal, and a Minotaur.
Tactics often involve adapting, which is what the Minmatar excel at.

Min suits are fast and versatile with slots to accent multiple fitting styles. MinA is probably the most open ended suit to fit/play in the game. Great combos with any weapon...and #clipsahoy on any min weapon. It may be overlooked and might be just par, but great opportuniy lay within that suit imo.
Mark a$$ tricks, and bags of dicks....

I don't know about you, but when I'm roided out on 4 MyoStims, 3 KinCats and a CardReg, my mind just kind of shuts down a little and I forget about tactics and start relying on lower brain functions.
Why tactics stealth when run punch hard?

Not really. I carry a scanner on my min assult so i know where most of the enemy is. Scan, hit and run. I don't care if i'm scanned because i already have the intel I need to engage, disengage or run away.
That being said, every playstyle should have a counter, and a scanner is a good counter to catch flanking enemies, if they can catch scouts they can catch you. If you lost the element of surprise, then try something else.

Scanners are really bad. Use a couple damps, even on an assault, and you can get under most scanners profile. I cant even scan max ewar scouts with the 2nd best scanner (db) in the game on a gal-logi. There is only 1 scanner worth a damn db-wise, and it only lights you up for about 5 secs, so its about useless.
Use damps and speed to your advantage? If you get scanned, run for about 10 secs, then turn back around and wreck face. Scanners are way too easy to beat right now, and you are complaining about them?
I only play dust514ums now. It was always more fun than the actual game anyways.
