Note: this is mainly for scouts... Possibly work on other suits though...
I've been running my Gallente scout and been trying different mod layouts and different combinations of mods for different weapons, trying to get something to work. Earlier today i think I found it.
I had realized that i was trying to play scout like how I was playing scout last build.. Using overwhelming strafe speed and small hitbox to beat enemies in 1v1 ar battles.. That is not the way to do it now though... (Possibly it was never the way to do it lol. But I made it work last build)
Speed tanking in dust: a tactic in which you use your overwhelming speed to dodge and weave through enemy gunfire. I have found this amazingly effective now to previous build. I believe, however it is due to the bad aiming system. Everyone is trying to adjust to the aiming system so alot of people's aim is off. Add that and the range nerf to all weapons and now scout shottys are actually pretty good.
The question that now remains is... How long will it be until they fix the aiming.. And the decent players can be spot on with their aim again?
Because once that happens... It will revert back to last build where you couldn't do it.. (At least not as effective as now)
Tbh makes me kinda hope they don't change aiming lol. But then again, the aim isn't helping me much either...
Props to this

I saw it and the speed part was exactly what I thought.
What do you guys think?

I think the range change is a big deal. People are closer when they fight, That's what makes speed tanking work. That and I don't know if you noticed the nerf to radar. But it's AWESOME.
but yeah since everyone is closer, there is more target to shoot at and when you can run at 11m/s *i love 4 lows* you can really make it hard to be hit.
Come on it's the same as in TF2. That game has great aiming but the only thing the scout can do is speed tank! |

Out of boredom, I made a Minmatar scout on one of my alts. The speed is ****ing incredible. Been using the pistol and nova knives and haven't even thought of looking at the shotgun. Out of all the weapons, the scrambler is left unchanged and still accurate. Knives are just beastly for scouts now too. I zig-zagged at an assault from 30m away and he couldn't land a hit on me and I felt like a predator when he was bunny hopping away reloading. Strafe sprinting was definitely a scout buff. Might have to wait and see how it works when aiming gets fixed.
