Several things. Try to include rookie friendly things. For starters, a beginning min scout would not need fitting optimization 5, proficiency 5, links 5, cloaks 3, hacking 5, and sidearm op 5. These could be obtained later when the min scout is ready to do so, at at least 20m sp. Make this guide geared towards new players, helping them if they want to choose this as their playstyle. Unless of course you wanted this to be help for general players. Also, give them the freedom to use whatever weapon. Also, Complex Shields are not a must. On a ganked suit like a min scout, enhanced shields are fine for the small boost that complex gives. Cloaks can be given a guide of their own or a section of their own on how to use them effectively.
I'd be glad to help you if you'd like. Some starter fits I have are:
Scout M1
ZN-28 Nova Knives
Submachine Gun
Basic Shield Extender x2
Advanced Precision Enhancer x1
Advanced Profile Dampner x2
Basic Kinetic Catalyzer x1
Equipment wise a min scout doesn't need much of anything at all. Everything is completely optional and up to the user's playstyle. I don't recommend cloak until Min Scout lvl 4 at the least, and even then use it with caution or don't at all. The decloak animation can get a lot of people.
That's all :)

They still do not. I strongly advise against skilling light frames due to the fact they have no bonuses the min scout really needs. All it has is a fast move speed. I also would say that any gun is up to the user, but sidearms make it more cost effective and fitting effective, and light weapons are more powerful but cost more and take up more fitting space that could be used for kincats and other fitting intensive items. Also, like I said, cloaks are not necessary, and for beginners will most likely hinder their performance more than assist it. Another tip is to jump shot. It has the same speed or similar speed and allows you to charge at the same time. A BPO scout would also be nice to play with yes, but beginners should probably focus more on saving isk because min scouts are extremely costly and you can die quickly in them.
