I'm just started to get into the scout a week ago and I'm liking the cal scout pretty well. Run complex damps with enhanced precision enhancers with bolt pistol and shotgun. Any tips or things I can do to use the caldari scout better will help also looking for some fittings to.
Been logi'ing since release. Need to give those needles and self proclaimed king of logi hugs ^-^

I'm not too sure about the caldari scout but since caldari's have a shield buff and hp buff the shotgun is probably a good selection as when you get in close for the kill you can withstand alot of damage. Also it would probably be better to use scanners with a caldari scout as you can withstand alot more damage when people are firing on you as you scan. Then as for cloaks and a caldari scout I wouldn't really recommend it as without the buffs from the min scout it would make it really hard to get away from said target. Below is a list of common scout types via race.
Scout Types: Minmatar Scout: Point Rusher, Assassin, Nova Knifer and Slayer(if you want to find out how to make a Slayer Min Scout fit post something below and I might just make a guide )
Caldari Scout: Scanner and Support Assault
Gallente Scout: Shotgunner
Amarr Scout: Support Logi
As you can see the Minmatar Scout is the most versatile but Caldari comes in at second, while both Gallente and Amarr are left in the dust(no pun intended)
Hope this helps

Axel you are biased as ****.
Op good sir. I do not run cal scout consistently but I have dabbled in it.
Cal scout is not the fastest , nor the sneakiest , nor the most precise passive scanner. It does have a slight reduction to profile and a reasonable increase to scan radius.
Due to the horrible state of range amplifiers,I advise you do not make an only ewar cal scout. I recommend a damp or 2 if you want to be real sneaky. Speed will save your life kincats will help. Shields will save your life. Do not be afraid to sacrifice a high slot for a precision or myofib.
Just remember a cal scout without any shields is a dead cal scout. Shotty bolt pistol is a solid combo for an assassin. You are on the right path .
While slow to anger and occasionally indecisive, they are also capable of harnessing enormous resolve when truly tested.

Uber biased man. Don't troll on this guy like that. All the scouts can be good at a purpose. Just because the minmatar is the fastest and hacks faster does not automatically make him "the most versatile" nor the best.
Gal scouts have stealth and a small precision boost.
Amarr scouts have precision and a small biotics boost.
Caldari have a passive scan and a small stealth boost.
Minmatar have 25% more nova knife damage and 25% faster hacks.
In no way are the minmatar superior. They each have their own strengths and weaknesses.

If I had to make a list from greatest to least greatest I would have: MinScout=CalScout>GalScout>Amarr Scout

Don't just say the stats don't lie. ******* SHOW ME THE STATS. In no way have you convinced me that you want to help the op. It seems as though you're just trying to make him a minja. I love gal scout but I ain't presenting my favorite scout in a biased fashion.
Minja is best at performing stealthy assasinations due to knives bonus and they can maintain their stealth on the field due to their speed at hacking and on foot.
Gal are best for infiltrating enemy lines, setting up flanks or traps, and finishing off weak targets.
Caldari is basically gallente with a focus on passive scans and using the shields as their buffer to assassinate a target safely.
Amarr scouts use their precision and higher base tank to hunt down any bad scouts.
When you use the caldari scout , its all about skirmishing and picking your targets very carefully. Blasters and lasers will kill you quite fast. As in you land a shotty shell and Mr amarr or gallente assault turns around and blasts before you can land a second shot. Don't even let an amarr or gallente commando see you. They are your easiest prey yet arguably one of the biggest threats if they are aware.
Know the weapon damage profiles , understand your targets and when to use shotty or Bp. Learn the sentinel resists because that's often why they walk away. Never be in open ground at all unless your cloaked. Accuracy acuuracy accuracy. As the scout with stealth and mobility, you should be able to control most engagements. If your scanned then gg.
I don't remember any cko scouts but if I see one ill tell him to mail you a fit or two OP.

I was just trying to give him another option and by the way I know MinScout isn't the best but I put Cal and Min at equally first but your right it really depends on your play style and how you choose to skill your SP

Alright, enough arguing between you two. Was looking for advice to help me and possible fits. Not for two to argue about bias or which suit is the best.
