Wouldn't mind the things so much if they didn't make passive scans completely irrelevant. Why Rattati thought it was a good idea to give a single piece of equipment the ability to scan the enemy team for your entire team, I'll never know.

Why Rattati thought it was a good idea to give a single piece of equipment the ability to scan the enemy team for your entire team, I'll never know. Scanning is a double edged sword basically, on one side you have permanent passive scans and on the other you have partial scans of high precision. Its just one of those things that I like to refer to as "political conversations" it always ends with one side feeling like they got screwed over.
If they hadn't nerfed scans, I'd still be fine with the scanners. Even with team scans, the short scan bursts are acceptable if there's something to compete with it, but sadly, there isn't at the moment. 40m is about the max you're going to get anymore, and for what you have to give up to get that, it just doesn't cut it. If cloaks didn't destroy your scanning ability, it might, but at the moment, there's just no reason to run passives while active scanners rule the fields.

I get no points for this, but the warm fuzzy feeling I get as the entire enemy team goes slowly insane from "YOU HAVE BEEN SCANNED" blocking their screen is reward enough
I'm sending you my merc's therapy bill.

Why Rattati thought it was a good idea to give a single piece of equipment the ability to scan the enemy team for your entire team, I'll never know. theres nothing worse running solo vs a full pro squad and getting permascanned Shared scans is the single biggest force multiplier in the game - i want it gone from pubs. Assume that shared scans were done away with completely. What would you want that one Logistics suit's role to be instead? (I can't call it Gallente or Adipem will come in here flipping his lid)
There's really nothing else for the Gallente Logi. The scanner is their only piece of equipment at the moment. A nerf would be alright, but a buff to passive scans would be even better. Allow other suits to compete. Dodging scans isn't all that difficult, 2-3 dampeners hides you completely. I wouldn't mind seeing the skill changed either, let it be total time scanned, or scan radius or range, or all of the above. Would make something so powerful be a little easier to avoid, but at that point, if people still complained, they'd have only themselves to blame.
