I had 800k sp lying arround so I got a lvl3 basic minnie scout :D (with advanced nova knives of course). I'm running it with the advanced assault smg.
Honestly I'm surprised at how much stuff I managed to fit on it.

I got myself lvl.4 cal scout (not enough sp for lvl.5). First of all the 370hp is orgasmic. Secondly, I'm thinking of running it with MD and magsec, using the cloak to get in position and blasting the fools.
MD is all about position and knowing where the enemy is, cal scout seems perfect for that. Cloak lets me get in position unhindered too :D. Thoughts?

Depiction of what happens in QQ machines. Yeah, funny thing is, a lot of the time I only cloak after a kill, almost never before and I still get people bitching about using the cloak for an easy kill. Hell, one time I topped the leader boards using the Rail Rifle, Flaylock, Nanohives and Uplinks (Those last two gave me a crap tonne of points) and I still had a guy ***** to me about cloak abuse.
Apart from (fairly useless) speed it's the only advantage you have over him. Of course he's going to whine lol.

F*** this, I'm not touching vehicles anymore. At least by using a scout I'll know that I'm losing isk from my mistakes, not from overly abusive nerfs.

I was getting chased around by a cloaked nk scout, being myself in a cal scout. I started shooting him with my magsec (couldn't see ****). I don't think he expected me to whip out a mass driver hehehe, let's just say he took the shells to the face. Splash damage = dead scout.

I mostly see the matari scout as a clown suit, here is why:
1) running in circles around heavies (hilarious), heavy just ***** pants every time.
2) Insta nk blapping people (if the knifer is good): +50, +50, +50
3) Instantly rehacking something while cloaked, mindf*cks the enemy.
4) skilled up speed (3x cmp kinetic catalysers?) = aerobatics.

Returning scout here, I haven't played for more than a year and have a few questions:
I have a caldari scout (proto) and all useful core skills maxed (except for code breaker). With that said, I'm totally getting my face caved in. This is partly due to the fact that I just can't aim worth a damn (haven't used a controller in 1+ years, coupled with the fact that aiming in dust is pretty hard from the get go). So I'd like to know what weapons are good to use with scouts (combat rifle worked well for me back when I left). I'm still pretty decent at sneaking around and picking my fights (cloak helps here), but I just can't kill anything even when ambushing them (yes, I'm a massive scrub).
In addition, I'm just unsure of how I should tank the damn thing. Should I go with shield extenders? Kin cats? E-war? I also noticed some people jumping to orbit, so I assume that stacking myofibs must be pretty effective?
So yea, just general tips or advice from fellow scouts would be greatly appreciated.

I've been playing a lot of warthunder on PC recently (and I have an overkill computer). So the ****** as **** graphics of dust kinda threw me off at first, I didn't recall it being this bad. Aiming with a controller is also something I'm unable to do anymore (or maybe it's just the fact that the game runs at 20-30 fps, which I'm not used to). Ha, try aiming with a mouse in dust @ 20 fps in CQC. It's like trying to shave yourself with a mace in the dark (yo , cut it!)
I would'nt be surprised, the entire control system is pretty jerky and unpolished to be honest, the heavy aim assist is a proof of that. Kinda reminds of of how messed up module activation is with a keyboard.

Alright. I tried. I really really really tried.
I just can't make the scout suit work. Infiltration is not a problem, it's doing what's needed after. Running against full proto teams 100% of the time in my squishy as **** cal scout has not been a good experience. Basically, I can move freely where ever I want or stalk/follow enemies, but getting that kill has just been a very frustrating series of failures. I tried tons of different weapons, I didn't find anything that didn't require either god level aim to use (as skill I don't have) or simply did enough damage to garantee a kill before the enemy lasily turns around and mows me down with a flavored proto rifle (or jump up to orbit and have an ally kill me).
Simply put, I'm unable to do mutch besides spying on the enemy blob and hacking things (both of which don't grant much isk and sp). Because yea, I'm also poor from tanking (I realized today that they're pretty useless considering that killing infantry is now very innefective, there's not much else to use them for apart from killing instalations and other (rare) vehicles, and proto AV is EVERYWHERE).
Sorry if this turned into a rant at the end, but it's my honest opinion and constatation as a returning player. Along with ADSs, scouts are by far the things that require the most skill to be made viable (assault/heavy/logi are a joke compared to this). Those of you that make it work are freaking gods, and I really wish that I had the dedication to achieve a similar skill level.

Thanks for the replies guys! I was half expecting a "get good scrub" but this is refreshing from this usually incredibly toxic forum.
It probably doesn't help that I have an inflated Kd/r due to my tanking days (back when tanks could reliably kill infantry). Meaning that I get somewhat shafted by the match-maker... I'm not lying when I'm saying 100% proto teams 100% of the time, seeing the average INFANTRY HP being over 1000 is pretty scary.
Also, what's this about the bolt pistol being OP? (I need an OP weapon right now).

dzizur wrote:Flix, if you're having trouble killing unaware targets (which are close of course)
try:
Using your passive scanning to lay RE traps and lure - protostompers will hunt you as soon as they see you have ~200 hp. That's where you put RE's behind a corner and wait :) (also works with charged nova knives and sometimes shotgun, although if your ecountering heavily tanked opposition just stick to RE's and knives. Be sure to use at least ADV remotes, as basic ones don't instakill everybody.
PLC-shotgunning - fit yourself with PLC and enough tank to survive your own splash damage - use at point blank.
The infamous melee scout - cal scout has a lot of high slots so you can try this aswell, although best results I had were with minscout.
What's it all about? Put only complex myos in highs, cloak, and whatever else you see fit (prolly kincats or damps) and puch those dudes while being cloaked. Melee sometimes has problem registering, so be sure to be as close as possible, avoid trying to hit a guy that is running straight ahead and you can barely catch up on him.
Ooooh now that's interesting. The cloak can be reactivated immediately afterwards :O. I'll have to give the REs a shot too, lots of potential kills I could've gotten with those.
To be honest I don't even care about using underhanded tactics anymore. An assault looks in my general direction and I die, so at least I'll get the satisfaction of killing them in the most frustrating way possible (for them). I used to just call down a proto-fit tank when I got pissed and mow everything down, but that doesn't work so well anymore T_T. Speaking of tanks, I was just jumping over an enemy tank yesterday, I don't even think that he saw me (had I had some remotes he would've been very very dead).
Oh btw, what game mode do you people generally play? Maybe playing dom isn't such a good idea because both teams always turn into unaproachable red/blue blobs of death and destuction, making finding lone targets pretty hard... I found that getting behind enemy lines and putting down well placed uplinks for my team has been a decent source of WP (seriously, it's a massive tactical advantage to get half of your team in the enemy's ass).
And on an unrelated note, myofibs should really just increase jump height for scouts. Seeing a f*cking logi break freefall altitude records is pretty frustrating.
Last thing, is there a chat chanel for skinnybros?

I don't know what to tell people anymore to be honest. I just wait in hope of changes that fix the real problems instead of addressing mere symptoms or hurting non abusive play styles in order to fix the abusive ones.
Yea, that's the unfortunate reality I came to understand. It doesn't help that uncloaking bugs out half of the time and I have to reswitch to my knives.
Unfortunately I don't have proto knives yet (only advanced) so it takes me a charged swing all the time, and potentially a follow-up with tankier targets. Also being unable to charge while running is f******* killing me, I can't believe that hasn't been fixed in three years. Beeing able to kill people with an uncharged swipe would be neat, but I don't see that happening any time soon (even with proto knives)... Maybe if I keep sucking enough my stats will have dropped to a point where I'm not against teams of stacked proto tryhards 100% of the time (I wouldn't mind if my gunnie could still kill **** but I hardly see the point in taking it out of the hangar anymore).

They don't want us to charge while sprinting. There was a glitch where that was possible at one point, and they squashed that real quick. Cloak switching is a big reason I don't want to play. Can't tell you how many times I did the same thing, and had to switch 2, or even 3 different times. Its worse when you are spotted while cloaked, and now have 3 to 9 seconds where you can't even fight back. The trick is to sprint then switch if I remember correctly, because it is the sprint mid switch that causes the problem. I almost always charge personally, but again with HP creep, it has become nearly a necessity. And now that you have the inner rings, and you walk so slowly while you charge, you just make yourself a big target. This makes learning the Raptor Jump all the more important. Jump, charge mid air, and release just prior to landing. It is almost a necessity, particularly with targets you are chasing from behind. Sometimes, I found it best to even jump OVER the merc, do a 360, and knife them that way, as once you hit the inner ring, they become aware, and aren't always expecting you to jump over them. If you are knifing, pro knives are a must now. Used to be able to get by with most targets and Adv knives on a Minja. Not anymore. Last point, aim for the head. There is no noise or headshot indicator, but you DO get a bonus with your knives, and if you are going to go in without charging, aiming for the head might be your best bet.
Hmmm, I'd do the raptor jump (not that I can't), it's just that I'm using kincats. So I jump too high to be able to do the raptor jump, and I'm hesitant on removing them due to the massive GTFO advantage it gives me (like jumping over walls and such, especially when an angry assault spotted me).
Quick question; what game mode is best for scouts? Because I was playing dom and I found it night impossible to find lone targets, it's usually just both sides playing a furious sumo match for the objective, I assume that ambush would be the same.

We just want to be viable, not OP, big difference.
Doesn't even need to be a buff, a WP and ISK reward increase to things like hacking would help big time. And the fact that the isk reward is determined solely by the quantity of things destroyed, and not things thst actually directly contribute for the win (like hacking) hurts the wallet of non-offensive oriented players.

I did it gais. I got proto knives today (came back to 600k sp, lol), and managed to raptor jump some people :D. The incredible bugginess/clunkiness of the cloak still annoys the f*** out of me, but hey, gotta manage. Playing skirmish definitely helps, I'm never going close to the putrid clusterf*** that is dom again.
Ps: Remind me what the current scout chats are, please.

Honestly all the suit needs is a base HP increase. I'd at least like to be able to have as much shielding on my proto cal scout as I do on a c-1 assault suit. I can get something like 150 more shields on the assault suit, and that's by gimping scan precision and stuff like that on the scout. I actually get much better results using my c-1 assault versus my ck.0 scout, lol.

I bought a respec. I decided to comlletely spec out of vehicles, so turns out that I had enough sp to have a scout as well as an assault and a sentinel (all proto) with core skills maxed, along with their respective proto weapons. RR for my cal ass, knives for the minja and HMG for the gal sentinel, along with smg for all of them.
But let's talk about the scout, because you guys probably don't give a **** about the other ones. From experience I know that scputs suck ass at combat currently, so I capitalized on their non-combat abilities. Here's the fit I came up with:
Scout mk.0:
High:
3x complex shield extenders
Low:
2x complex codebreaker
1x complex profile dampener
(I use two profile damps if the enemy has good scans)
Weapons:
SMG (forgot which one)
Proto knives
Equipment:
adv cloak
When using this thing I avoid combat like plague. The cloak helps a lot with this, I've had people just walk past me many times (it's hilarious). Generally when my cloak is up I manage to run into enemy packs and they don't see me (I run in their blind spots, etc...). As you probably guessed this thing is meant to get hacks, and boy does it hack fast (seriously it's hilarious). My first game with it I managed to get 800wp strictly from hacking, also got an opportunity kill with the knives. An other advantage is that I really don't die often with the thing, so it helps my wallet a bit. Fun fact, I managed to get an objective hack off with 3-4 reds around it, and got away without getting killed. It just hacks too fast for people to react most of the time.
So, what do you guys think?

So, what do you guys think? I run one almost exactly like this for citys in pc, if you want to, try throwing a myo in the highs, it takes some hp away, but one complex myo gives you enough jump to get over most low to moderate obstacles and makes escaping pretty easy. thats just me though, in the end if you enjoy a fit and like how it runs keep using it and honestly that suit (in my experience) works pretty well.
I'm still in the testing phase, so I'll definitely give it a try. Might even try two myofibs if I can fit them, that way I could get to objectives much faster and I'd also have the option of being a jumpy c*nt if I get shot.

So, what do you guys think? remove the cloak. I'd depend on E-war as a scout for my visuals, and if you know how to be truly stealthy you could honestly just run precision in highs and range in lows lol. Here's a fit i used to use; Scout mk.0 2 complex precision 1 complex shield extender 2 complex profile dampeners 1 complex kin cat Boundless CR Ishukone NK C-7 flux Viziam flux uplink Boundless RE i didn't use a codebreaker at all really because when i played dust everyone else was asleep, leaving a massive clusterfu ck of noobs and PC corps to play dom which has only one point. You need speed though, and 2 damps minimum to get under most scans most. flux is no brainer, and if you plan on using the RE's to kill tanks you can flux them before hand. Uplink cause solo-OB. The point of my fit is for hacking though, not killing stuff. I genuinely hack objectives and installations in people's face and gtfo before they can notice. The cloak is a massive advantage in that regard, I often just stop moving and people pass 5m beside me without even noticing.

Equipment:
adv cloak
When using this thing I avoid combat like plague. The cloak helps a lot with this, I've had people just walk past me many times (it's hilarious). Generally when my cloak is up I manage to run into enemy packs and they don't see me (I run in their blind spots, etc...). As you probably guessed this thing is meant to get hacks, and boy does it hack fast (seriously it's hilarious). My first game with it I managed to get 800wp strictly from hacking, also got an opportunity kill with the knives. An other advantage is that I really don't die often with the thing, so it helps my wallet a bit. Fun fact, I managed to get an objective hack off with 3-4 reds around it, and got away without getting killed. It just hacks too fast for people to react most of the time.
So, what do you guys think? remove the cloak. I'd depend on E-war as a scout for my visuals, and if you know how to be truly stealthy you could honestly just run precision in highs and range in lows lol. Here's a fit i used to use; Scout mk.0 2 complex precision 1 complex shield extender 2 complex profile dampeners 1 complex kin cat Boundless CR Ishukone NK C-7 flux Viziam flux uplink Boundless RE i didn't use a codebreaker at all really because when i played dust everyone else was asleep, leaving a massive clusterfu ck of noobs and PC corps to play dom which has only one point. You need speed though, and 2 damps minimum to get under most scans most. flux is no brainer, and if you plan on using the RE's to kill tanks you can flux them before hand. Uplink cause solo-OB. The point of my fit is for hacking though, not killing stuff. I genuinely hack objectives and installations in people's face and gtfo before they can notice. The cloak is a massive advantage in that regard, I often just stop moving and people pass 5m beside me without even noticing. You are definitely sounding like a Bastard. We don't slay, good luck on your bastardly endeavors o7
Yep, I'm the annoying little sh*t that continuously hacks those installations back 10 seconds after they were re-hacked, and that back-stabs people that want to try their luck at getting it back
