My very first game was 19-4 (My lifetime K/D is .54 because being a dedicated logi/scan scout take its toll). My GK.0 Assault was better than my scout in almost every respect (except Scan Profile)

Speed: 8.1~ Sprint Speed ||| 8.7~ Sprint Speed
HP: 200~ Shield, 300~ Armor ||| 321 Shield, 492 Armor
Reps: 10~ Armor per second ||| 14~ Armor per second

My Assault could tank damage, he could afford to miss a shot and live, he could out perform my scout in every way. I was SHOCKED. I had seen Minmatar Assaults do this sort of thing, but no Gallente, however I was amazed at how well it worked.
If you don't rely on your cloak as a scout, I HIGHLY advise you to try shotgun with an Assault suit.

My Fitting

Assault GK.0
CRG-3 Shotgun
TY-5 Breach Scrambler Pistol
M1 Locus Grenade
X-3 Quantum Nanohive
Complex Kincat x2
Complex Cardiac Regulator
Complex Armor Plate
Complex Armor Repairer
Enhanced Shield Extender
Basic Shield Extender x2

My PG is only at lvl 4, but if you have lvl 5, you can use an Enhanced Extender instead of Basic

I just thought I'd share this for anyone who wants to skill into Scouts. If you want a Cloak, use a Scout. If you wanna Shotgun bitches like it's nothing, use an Assault.

Enjoy getting completely shut down the second anyone equips a scanner.

I use mk.0 assault:
2 kincats
1 dampener
1 regulator
3 adv. shield extenders
1 precision enhancer

shotgun/bolt pistol, core locus gren, x-3 nanohive

Works great until people start using scanners, then you have to use the scout if you want to keep being effective. And thats why shotgun assaults still suck and scouts still have a place.

Please tell, how often do you see red berries running scanners? 'Cause I see it once every 3 matches or so and I am predominantly a Logi. If they have scans, I Logi, if not, I run SG Gassault or Logi anyways

Also, consider dropping that plate to a ferroscale. slows you down less and gives you more PG / CPU to play with.

I'll run Proto if I want to run Proto, but I fail to see your point. I don't go and run Proto if I see that we have more players. I go and run Proto when I think 'Screw it, let's try this new Proto fit I made' or 'Hey, if we really need that point, I'll run overwatch with a Rail Rifle'. I'm not the ******* who runs Proto only when we're up a few men on the other team. Plus, if there is anyone who can take me running Proto and live, it's Art.Of.Death.
