lol...
sorry Zan.. As many times i have died to your shotgun I had to laugh.
Scouts have the advantage of lower profile.. If the dropsuit is fit right they can be next to you and never show up on your mini map (AKA TacNet) this is why most of us have been blind sided by scouts. Not only that, they also have more speed to dance. Heavy, Assault, and Logistic will always cry foul when killed by scout.
Only major drawback to scout suit is, if ya can't dance then die... |

I am pretty good at dancing but let's say you clone the best gun fighter in Dust514 one being Assault one being Scout with equal aim,dancing, and overall skill. I would say it's 7-10 in favor of Assault. Using ARs of course not adding in MD or Shotty speed element.
Depends? Is the assault, armor buffed? -3% to -5% movement. that is viable.. |

Scout is great at blind sighting you. They show less profile with dampaners, have a very fast shield regen. So if a scout has a shotgun he can ruin your day and get out of the line of fire before his victims friends can tell whats going on.
On the other side of the coin, if you can catch him at medium range with an assault suit. The target scout can be in trouble, many scouts have died trying to close range to an assault. Only the good ones know when to close distance.
These are my observations as an assault class, I don't dance so those friends have left me behind.  |

The scout suit is also has a better Scan.. many of the Red dots you see at long distance is because of scout suit, scan range, and signature analysis.
My rage as an assault is pitiful.. i can only see what i point my gun at. but a scout with the correct mods in that roll can see more red than I.
And that info is displayed to the TacNet. |

I like this idea, but couldn't anybody do it? The only thing great about the Scout doing it is the slight speed upgrade but couldn't a Heavy Assault or Logi do this as well - the speed to get around? I also hear the whole dampener thing making them a ghost on the scanner but couldn't a Assault, Heavy, and Logi do the same? Scouts CAN'T be tanks, Scouts CAN'T be battering rams (Scouts could prob carry lots of equipment and be a medic but it would be a pretty soft medic a few shots they down) So playing logi role on a Scout might not be effective. Assault is balanced so Scout could play their role that's basically what I do now. Only a good Assault would do what I do better.
Scouts are quick tanks.. the shield regen is nearly instant. (Scout gets shot and takes cover... Scout has full shield sooner than any other dropsuit) many scouts use cover first over direct fights.
The dampener helps them blind sight you, as you are unable to see them in the mini map. The better scout player is always hard to kill.. The poor scout player, plays like an assault.
And no a heavy can't lay a Remote Explosive. Heavy does not have an equipment slot. |

Hmm if that is true could be interesting. As for the super speed Scout using shotgun, that's just noob tactics. Tell me where the shotty scout freightrained you
