I'm working on a scout build that uses the scrambler rifle and SMG. However, as someone else said, a mean look will kill a scout, the role of the scout build would be to avoid combat as much as possible and sneak around hacking enemy installations, especially the clone reanimation units (to bring in reinforcements). However, I'm having trouble deciding what i should start devoting my sp to at the moment.
Currently I have the following skills:
Dropsuit Command: Dropsuit Command lv2 Gallente Light Dropsuits lv3 Gallente Scout Dropsuits lv1
Dropsuit Upgrades: Dropsuit Upgrades lv1 Dropsuit Core Upgrades lv1
Weaponry: Weaponry lv3 Light Weapon Operation lv2 Scrambler Rifle Operation lv1 Sidearm Operation lv2 Submachine Gun Operation lv1
Would shield modules really make a difference?
How great of speed boost do the kinetic catalyzers provide?
Would it be more beneficial to use a drop uplink (In case a clone reanimation unit is not available)? or should I use an active scanner to find enemies before they find me?
Does the extra hacking speed provided by the hacking skill and codebreaker modules make a big difference?
And above all, what should I start devoting sp to first? |

Essentially my play style at the moment is to get near enemy controlled null canons (this build is essentially only going to be played on Skirmish battle modes). If the canon has people around it, hack any nearby clone units and then anything else. If no one is around it, hack the null canon and get to a safe distance to guard it (or again start hacking other things). If I happen upon a single enemy, I try to do an initial charged scrambler shot to give as much damage as possible on the first strike and try to finish them off. If there are two or more enemies near each other I try to avoid them. If the enemy doesn't control any null canons or they are too well guarded for me to make a difference, I head to the main area of fighting and provide support fire using my scrambler rifle from a distance while trying to not let the enemy notice me. I'm far too squishy to do any direct combat. |

Scout G-1 is 70/130.
And i chose the SMG because I like the look of it and also because it makes a good panic weapon after I've softened them up with the scrambler and they are trying to get close to me (i.e. a shotgun user).
I didn't go with the shotgun because shotgun+smg would give me absolutely no range capability which I need if i'm going to be picking off people trying to hack the null canons. |
