High Slots: 1 Cmp Shield, 1 Cmp Precision

Secondary: Bolt Pistol or SMG
Equipment: Cloak, Remote Explosive or Uplink
GR: Core Locus for Ambush, otherwise Flux Disclosure: I am, by no means, a master of scout fu.
The Gallente scout gets a bonus to scan precision. What is the purpose of that complex precision in the high? Is it easier to fit than a light damage mod?
Everything else about the fit makes sense to me besides that.

1 Precision (dB): 13 / 26 / 34
1 Precision enables the GalScout to detect undampened Assaults 41dB in their outer ring and single damp'd assaults (30dB) in their middle ring.
As for damage amps, I've recommended a shotgun over a rifle, and in far more cases than not, 1 Complex Damage Amp will not affect Shotgun TTK. Thanks for the education/explanation. Suppose the scout was using a rail or combat rifle instead of the shotgun; would you still recommend the same choices for the high slots?

The Gallente scout has a built in damp bonus so yeah, to someone who doesn't run scouts but maybe as an opener to fast hack the first couple objectives, this makes sense. I guess you missed my disclaimer. No worries.

That is very similar to my current fitting except I use a 2 kin cats, 1 cardiac reg, and 1 codebreaker. Stacking a kincat to three seems like a huge PG/CPU loss for a small sprint speed gain. Just my opinion, of course.

on the larger maps, the time saved to the first objective compared to the time saved by the code breaker is actually quiet wide. I find on the large maps the 3 x Kincats gets the objective hacked first 90% of the time without nary a person bothering me. That is with dropping links along the way. I carry a basic flaylock as a sidearm so I can clear equipment after without having to stop moving.
A proto MinScout with 3x kincats sprints at 11.12m/sec with 252 max stamina.
A Proto GalScout with 3x kincats, 1x cardiac reg sprints at 10.73m/sec with 441 max stamina.
All modules are complex in the above scenarios. All data provided by protofits.
So yeah, I could absolutely see the second or two a codebreaker shaves off a hack being less than the sprint speed / sprint distance offered by the suggested fittings. Plus, a codebreaker doesn't offer a bit of survivability but mobility does.
Good advice all around. Much appreciated.
