My opinion:
I don't like it, because it's a "cheap" not the best source of description. But, I just flat-out find it irking greatly where I have to search intently just to be laying dead and using up the CRU repeatedly. "get gud nub" yeah, whatever... just sucks getting killed by someone that hides a lot. Lol not much else I can beach further onto that. lol (rant)
Your turn.
I like the concept but hate them as well. I wasn't around when they were OP, see when I first came back I was used to 1.3< version of dust. I come back and everything has change, scouts are now blind. The line between scouts and assaults are barely there. Assaults have high hp, and run almost as fast as scouts, they can even outscout us. Scouts only got slightly better speed, slightly better regain and still that's a eh. The only benefit scouts seem to have now is two equipment slots and cloak.... The cloak does not work as it was supposed to.
Pretty much this is how I stand:

I'd give them up entirely just to have my old scan range back on my Minmatar scout. Staying alive was easier then than it is now. It was fun while it lasted, but the fun parts about it were nerfed out of it. Now it's just another tool, and a rather boring one at that.
There is almost no reason to spec into a scout vs specing into a assault, not even the cloak is a good enough reason. There's literally nothing a scout can do that a assault can't.
See the biggest dilemma here is that people don't want scouts to slayers(which is dumb, any suit can be a slayer if the player is good enough) or light assaults but yet assaults can be scouts......
I know this thread is not about scouts per say but about cloaks, but if cloaks were meant to give scouts it's role it should do it and work, and in my eyes and eyes of many it's broken. If you want to call that tactic cheap I'l leave you to it. Just think about all that it took to get that kill given to how bad cloaks are.. |
