Scout, whose task should be to EWAR

What exactly do you mean by the Falloff mechanic removing the EWAR role from scouts? In what sense?

It's worth pointing out here that non-RE scout kills outnumber RE kills by a factor of four (at the outside; note that I didn't check past the top thirty results).
While it's definitely likely that their K/S is lower than the Sentinel's, I'd wager that the Assault suit's K/S is somewhat lower still; based on the data if scouts and sentinels are to be modified in any direction they both ought to be modified downwards.

It's also clear, based on their sheer quantity, that Sentinels are incredibly prevalent (and presumably strong, though strictly speaking the numbers don't state that). It would be interesting to see how many HMG-wielders there would be had Sentinels a wider variety of anti-infantry weapons available to them, with a greater spread of ranges.
I'd guess, though, based on the nature of PC (being a skirmish-type match where the city points are of vast importance) that the HMG would still tend to be the most popular of any other heavy weapons we might add.

Last but not least, the shotgun is (trailing at half the kills of the HMG, true) the second most prevalent weapon (in that top thirty mentions). It outstrips all four rifle classes. If the HMG is to be modified (and it definitely should be) I'd suggest keeping a close eye on shotgun performance - I expect to see it skyrocket, right behind Six Kin ACR usage.

I believe the proliferation of MinASS has a lot to do with how powerful assaults have become as a whole while leaving two without meaningful bonuses. While also being effected by the proliferation of heavy armor.

I agree speed is to high but don't want the suite nerfed into the ground either!!!

Here was a nice thread that showed the MinASS was dispaportionatly faster then other assault suits.
Will try to find it at lunch

P.S. A 20m SG is a terrible idea .

The biggest problem will be that heavies will start to have a real hard time fighting each other and with the HMG being bad at range it will get horrible at range.

1. You didn't answer his question; you haven't make it clear how having the concentric scanning circles with scan precision falloff, ruined EWAR and somehow suddenly made the GalLogi better in comparison.

2. If anything, having a close range scanning circle with higher precision and a higher than base range scanning circle with lower precision, improves EWAR scouts and makes EWAR in general better with more counterplay (assualts can dampen a litlle, logis can scan a bit, and you can now play with varying zones of precision).

3. Also nothing about the GalLogi or active scanners changed with that.

The range amp nerf was... excessive. Possibly unnecessary, too.

If we can break the blob the reasoning for the nerf is obsolete.

I was talking solely range amp nerf.

I have no issue with the inner ring

Opinion.

I have, the descriptions aren't in the same reality with how the weapons actually perform.

Have you considered that the HMG is simply in massive usage due to the fact that PC map design heavily favors it because every PC battle is a cargo hub where they are the strongest?

As far as pub data would go, its another simple reason. Most people play Domination ...

So it seems to me that the weapon itself isn't problematic.

I love this "we" versus "them" thing you got going, Adipem. It really comes off as ostracizing, like the "we" you refer to is somehow better than Cat Merc and Zatara, especially when you say "if their proposal had passed without Rattati's intervention". It's cheeky, to say the least.

If I didn't know any better, I'd say that the "we" in this case paints a pretty sure-fire picture of a collective of individuals who are pressing their own particular agenda, because that's kinda what it comes off as.

Take a second to set aside whatever arbitrary barrier "you guys" threw up to segregate yourselves and remember that this is still a community and all of our voices are responsible for any changes that happen in this game, please.

Rattati has an unhealthy fondness for using the ehp/dps hammer when finer tools are called for.

21 db scans are only 45-¦ angle capture and only 100m range. They also (iirc) only light for 10seconds but are 30 second cooldown.

All still countered by the counter, an appropriately dampened Stealth Scout.

... I simply get frustrated when people call a weapon OP without considering all data points.

... If it really was that OP, would it not have a larger presence in PC?

Gal/Cal scouts are still very good in PC with shotguns and remotes. I don't know what game you're playing, but it aint Dust 514.

I proposed a solution to its shield devastation that never gained traction.
