This is to make the EW role viable. Seems like it will be.

at that rate they might as well just remove for everyone but scouts and scouts that's just maybe should have it. come on 2m what the hell is going to get that close, its basically made that area useless.and why do logis have 5m when they had the same range of assaults.. I think CCP just said this needs to be removed and randomly threw numbers out. guess this is even more range not to play a scout or even assault with the reduced equipment slots.thanks CCP for nerfing just about everything and things you can't find to nerf you make them cost more a ton more.

Yah the equipment slot thing is going to absolutely destroy scouts as a viable role. Right now I am a fully dedicated scout (proto) with my main character (Ignoble Son) and I will not be respecing into scout this build. I could see getting rid of one of the three equipment scouts are currently able to use, but limiting them to only one, and the unbelievable hard nerf to SR, as well as, a reduction in the number of high/low mod slots from six to five, and an even further nerf to base total HP, scout is looking pretty ridiculous this build. As a scout I will have to carry a scanner? And because I have to carry a scanner I can no longer carry ammo and a way to heal myself while I am off on my own SCOUTING! Ridiculous!

[edit>>> not to mention the overall CPU nerf that is coming, when scouts were already CPU starved?

I will test scout out with my alt just so I can complain about it on the forums.

Scouts have five meters scan radius? Assaults have two? If I went gk. scout (which I'm not, purely hipothetical) and took advantage of the 10% scan radius buff, that would put put me at 7.5 meters, scan radius. 7.5 meters? Down from the current 25 meters? What the hell? Let's say that the scan radius skill is still around (haven't looked yet) and the proto scan radius moduals still give a 45% increase to radius, that still only comes out to 13.59 meters. That's not even as much as an assault has as a base SR right now. So what the hell is with this massive nerf to SR?

Scanning is supposed to be good for WP. If it's unlimited charges, some guy can just sit on a roof somewhere and spam it for WP? It'll keep the red dots lit up anyway.
