Disagree with this^
6 mil will get you a decent build i recommend Nova knife operations LV 5 and minmatar Scout LV5 after that work on mods personally i would get extenders 5 and kinetic katilizers lv 5 so you can use complex shields and complex kinetic katilizers but you have to make sure you get cpu ang pg bonus up to at least lv 4 or you cant fit anything. But unless you utilize the minmatr scout bonus and use ishakone nova knives, knives are useless. Hope to see you on the battlefield Blink

The hit detection and the have to be 'on top' of range are the significant downsides that make it really hard to compute the math into.

There's no doubt that they're strong, but not having any ability to get that few extra meters that a sg provides you is a big deal.

You mean an extra foot or two. Those nova knives aren't very long.

Hey bro seen u on ton of posts why u use dam mods not h2h? Way mor damage on those

GRIM GEAR The Enclave Syndicate 1	Posted - 2013.06.08 00:00:00 - [5] - Quote I sunk skill points into proto nova knives yesterday; the hit detection is a bit off if you sneak up on someone they're normally dead. Overall I seem to run out of cpu and pg when it comes to fitting scout suits with KN and you get shredded to pieces when someone looks at you, so whether its viable I would honestly say no although it is a lot of fun. You might want to wait till ccp brings out the other racial scout suits because as it stands the minmatar and gallente don't cut it cpu/pg and slot wise, even if you sink 4m sp into cpu and pg passive skills you cant fit everything you need on a proto scout suit.
dday3six Intrepidus XI 1	Posted - 2013.06.08 00:07:00 - [6] - Quote You definitely want to go Minmatar Scout suits. Then stack melee damage increase and your choice of speed, stamina and profile damping modules. I personally like to have remote explosives to set traps on fall back areas, and flux to strip shields. Shotties, SMGs, MDs and Flaylocks all make good choices for a partner in crime to support your NK.

Aero Yassavi PIE Inc. Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris 70	Posted - 2013.06.08 08:59:00 - [12] - Quote I have an alt who does the nova knife thing and one thing you'll probably want to consider heavily is what second weapon you are going to carry. Considering that sometimes the hit detection with the knives may be off and the enemy will then notice you, you'll need to switch to something quick that can take care of the job before you lose what little eHP you have. Personally I went with the flaylock pistol as it does massive initial damage, has a good bit of range so I have more room to work with, and doesn't require direct shots so I can focus on speed strafing.

Sontie Ill Omens EoN. 655	Posted - 2013.06.11 00:14:00 - [17] - Quote 6 Mil SP is pretty much exactly what I got on my Nova Knifer alt. Proto Winmatar Scout Suit Proto Knives. Complex Shields Enhanced Kin Cats Enough core skills to equip 3 complex shields and 2 enhanced kin cats. And that will be all your SP. You will have to run Knives exclusively. From this point on you can decide in which direction you want to branch. Maybe pistols for a little ranged execution powers. Maybe Complex kin cats to be a true blur of speed (will need a lot high core skills) maybe RE's for laying traps Maybe Active Scanners so you can sneak around the battlefield more efficiently When lag is against you you will die a lot. When it is on your side you will put up scores like 20/1 in ambushes (at least, I do)
Niuvo The Phoenix Federation 4	Posted - 2013.06.12 22:57:00 - [18] - Quote Watch ninja movies. jk. always flank. sprint at the right time. profile dampening, scan precision. remote explosives are always fun. use grenades like smoke bombs. (smoke bombs would be cool) follow teammates and then branch off. Avoid being detected. jumping can help, but then you'll need cardiac stimulator. Nova knives are just, plain awesome. shank-shank. It would be nice if the knives were a bit longer?
