My thoughts exactly SoCal! We know that scout at this moment is a very underpowered suit, but I've been playing one for quite some time now and I do enjoy it and that's the reason I might still stay scout. That and potential. So yeah, hopeful and stupid were exactly the way I felt when I specced into scout once again. This respect might be different though as I'm still on the fence about it. |

Logis can do it better. Logis have worse base stats out of all the suits and no sidearm at the cost of more slots. If a logi can do a scout's job better it's because they paid more (isk and SP) to do it with their fittings. A scout's base stats determine their role and bonuses to that role. Base stats with no fitting wise, scouts have the advantage because of their higher stamina and the smaller hit box. Logis can just be made to be faster and tankier for more isk.
Honestly, I think that's part of the problem. I mean, it's fun to have a lot of slots, guys, even if it means less base stats, because everyone loves customising their suits. With the scout suits customisation is very limited compared to a logi or an assault suit. That combined with the facts that scout has very few slots and also doesn't have great base stats either and you have a situation where a scout is very a unattractive suit.
The other thing is, that no matter how much logi pays in ISK, it just shouldn't be a better scout than a scout is. At least in my mind that makes absolutely no sense. |

In EVE shields increase your scan signature and make it easier for enemies to lock onto you faster. In Dust, I would presume that the previous would be copied and pasted while your hit box is sufficiently larger until your shields deplete. If not, Caldari scouts will be as broken as Caldari Logis appear to be.
Agreed on this point. |
