Did you know that the effect scan range is 10m for all suits. That means you aren't being picked up by passive scans unless your in 10m, and dampening doesn't stop you from being put on radar from being SEEN and tagged. It might have a decrease in time that you are tagged but this is unclear. So effectively you're spending a ton of Suit space and SP to stay hidden for 10m from your target when they don't see you. Seems like a waste to me.

I think they are okay when you compare standard. In the advanced twirl they start to fall off a little but there proto oh boy that thing just sucks. I mean it to it is by far the worst suit in the game and the heavy is pretty bad right now.


They need some love but, like I have said before given where.the game is right now scouts are better off than heavies in pub s but are absolutely useless in PC. The game is just designed to be a logi/assault game right now though.

I for one would like to at least and I mean at least have double scan radius for the suits not passive but built in. That would be a great start. There are a few more things we could do but that's good at first.

The reason I like playing a knifer scout... I don't need to worry about ammo, and as a minnie scout I don't need to worry about my armor. That's two things everyone else has to contend with. But the best is how much more fun the game is. I have to use tactics no one else uses. I know it is a legit role in the game, but dudes who run with Caldari logis and Duv TARs basically are saying hey- I need every edge I can get. I know it. You know it. So when I kill one with my knives it's pure ownage. Killing a heavy proto bear is very satisfying too. I have tons of heavy armor parts on display in my Merc Quarters. And they all look like a velociraptor went to town on them :D I used to run a proto min assault with a tac.. yea. it was easy to kill people, but really took no tactics. so that's why.

The limited slots kind of suck, and the limited CPU/PG is lame, but I can work with it. I really think a proto minnie should have a 3rd low slot. I couldn't believe a caldari logi has 5h and 4l.. but the proto minnie has 3H and 2L. Pretty weird of CCP.. I wonder how they tested that out

And the reason I die the most as a scout is due to getting stuck on terrain or objects. It instantly removes all the edge you have a s a scout and may as well be little hidden webifier mines.

There movements HAVE to be sprint. The scout only has a marginally faster movement base than the normal suits and a good player can Easily track a .6-.9 increase in speed especially since it's pretty easy to track normal sprinting assaults which is much faster than a scout base. But I bet calamity twins are triple stacking complex kinetics to get a sprint speed of about 10m/s which would make them extremely deadly and the more than double extra shield HP makes them worlds more deadly than any scout.

That's why logis are broken and scouts are rubbish.

Hey played you the other day! You were blasting me with that shotgun of yours, good game though.

Maybe the Minmatar assault can get close enough in speed...but to really speed tank you want speeds of 10m/s+, which only a scout can achieve.

If you pick your fights, tanks are almost irrelevant on scouts.

Also, how can you not fall in love with scouts after knifing a heavy while he desperately tries to hit you without success?

does anyone believes that the proto gallente light should had 2 high powered modules and 3 low instead of 1 and 4?, i mean the lvl 3 has 2 and 2 and the proto has 1 and 4?, man the OCD inside me is going crazy, also scouts are to easy to see in the battefield, i mean u can see him running from one side of the map, of course skill plays a lot on that

I was actually just thinking this today. I am waiting to skill into any scout suits until I see the Amarr and Caldari suit stats. I actually think that the 2H / 3L layout would fit my playstyle ideally.

The 1/4 of the Gallente is a bit of a letdown. I mean having to choose between a profile analyzer, damage mod or a shield mod in the high slot isn't really much of a choice..... additionally, it brings up a question on what the Caldari slot layout will be, they are often the converse of the Gallente, so would their layout be 4H / 1L? Wow, talk about fitting challenges.

I would have gone 4H/1L minmitar (similar to their Medium suit which has an overabundance on the high slots), 3H/2L Caldari, 2H/3L Gallente and Amarr....? Not sure. 1H / 4L, or maybe another 2/3? 2/2 w/ 2 EQ slots?

Gallente is made for sniping. 4 low give you 4 modules for profile dampening or other sniping mods. High module isnt used for much but damage as a sniper pretty sure. You should need shields as a sniper, well, thats the logic.

Unless there is a module or skill that increases base movement speed a scout wouldn't be able to achieve that. And I did fall in love with the scout but it broke my heart
