So I started playing after a long break. I was looking at the Caldari Scout for a good change of pace from my comfort zone (assault suits). My gun-game is bad, so I've been trying other things to score WP while I get gud. So I tried the Cloak Field but didn't liked it much. Besides using it to run away, I really can't figure any other effective use, at least with my weapon. I chose the Assault Rail Rifle since it's got good hipfire accuracy, excellent for close-quarters combat. I still get owned most of the times in 1vs1 though. I'm not gonna use the shotgun because it's the most obvious choice for a scout, yeah I'm a hipster.
Also the Cloak Field doesn't get me WP, and it's CPU/PG heavy. So instead I chose to take advantage of my speed and low profile to drop uplinks. I like being the first to go to the nearest letter and start commanding my teammates to take the letter by drop uplinks. The WP flow is awesome. For my other equipment I chose the Nanite Injector. Again, take advantage of the speed to revive teammates asap. Do you guys think these are great equipment for a scout, or should I focus on getting that Cloak Field to work? Also should I even use a sidearm? If so, which one is a good complement for the ARR? |

Thanks for the suggestions guys.
I've been using the uplinks with great success, but I very rarely use the Nanite Injector. I think it would be better to use just 1 equipment. Thinking about the Active Scanner, though I feel it would be better if I just lower my scan precision a bit more (currently 37 dB). I run ADV suit anyway, this is my current loadout for the Caldari Scout:
Complex Myofibril Stimulant
2 Complex Shield Extenders (finally a scout with shields!)
Basic Shield Extender (not enough CPU/PG, probably should change it for a precision enhancer)
Basic Shield Regulator (thinking it should be a codebreaker)
Basic Profile Dampener (25 dB atm)
ADV ARR (I have more success with the vanilla RR though, but I want to have a solid CQC weapon that isn't a shotgun)
Toxin SMG (not really sure what to put here, I have full Flaylock specialization but it's too CPU heavy )
ADV Drop Uplinks
Basic Nanite Injector |
