The only way to stop this from happening, is to make cloaks scout-only. Trouble is, seems like the CCP designers, are explicitly desiging FOR the cloaked gal logi to happen. Which makes quite a few of us non-logi players, really, really pissed. Its pissing me off too but I haven't heard the full story yet so I don't know what to draft up to ccp on the whole thing. I rather see scouts get bonuses or triates for built in scanning, stamina, speed, fleeting tanks (high regen type tanks), higher agility (lower the penalty of strafing) stealthing, hacking (which based on 1.7's sde they already have a bonus of 5% (gal) or 10% (min)) or hell at least a second equipment slot so a scout can do covert things. read my thread if you want any ideas on some innate ability improving scout bonuses :) https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=134598&find=unread Id appreciate some feedback too Yes, I did kill Archduke Ferdinand.

If you guys read it and tell me what you think, Id appreciate it! If scouts are getting a base of 35 that is essentially is our old/current bonus, which is 34 when rounded compared to a base of 35 which is what CCP proposed, so with the suggested innate damp in the suit its already there. Add in an additional 25%, brings all scouts down to 27 (when rounded up), so perhaps this is intentionally. One also has to consider if the counters are still viable especially when we are getting the cloak, not saying it is or isn't but CCP will be concerned about it. Another thing to consider is the current precision vs dampening meta game makes precision one of the most useless stats, thus most of us ignore it for the most part due to the fact that our profiles are innately so much lower than our precision, and our base precision is enough to catch most medium frames. I would like precision to be a more meaningful stat thus I am actually in favor of removing lopsided profile/precision, which is easily enough to throw any reduce number innately on our suit without it having to be a skill, so I think an overall cpu/pg reduction on anything with a biotic/electronic tag on any item or module would be a better role bonus. I'm not going to go into huge detail but I think they is a discrepancy between your gal/min vs your cal/am scouts in skill utility. That being said, since I don't like a role bonus favoring profile over precision, I still think the gal scout should be profile reduction (which is what it is in eve), and the radius bonus, though I understand if I ruffle a few feathers with that one. of the other two a few issues in utility in your proposition Cal Scout 1) the cal scout is rendered moot by your gal scout 2) The cal scout bonus you suggested wouldn't even protect a team of mediums from a regular advance scanner 3) Running with medium frames is generally a bad idea in general unless they have ran scout because they don't move quite as intelligently 4) I would image the reduction to active scanners would be difficult to implement Am Scout 1) The purpose to stamina is equipment running, so would need another a EQ slot over other scouts to justify this role 2) As you suggested if it got the stamina boost, it would need the cooldown reduction as well to open it up. In addition I believe CCP is actually getting rid of firing mechanic when cloak based on the fact in the "scouts not satisfied thread" they were inquiring about what the new c-scout bonus would be (and not the others), and the only reason I can come up with why they would just ask for the cal scout is due to the fact that bonus will no longer be part of the mechanic (they also have addressed the cpm's no cloak firing thread), which is why I'm thinking there will be no firing from cloak, thus I believe CCP is still fishing for their cal scout, so I don't believe anything is set for it. Yeah the cal scout bonus was ccp's idea but i liked it so i decided to use it...i think its a good counter especially in a perma scanned battlefield that most of us run into nowadays, but id also like to see a ludicrously high base scan range on the cal scout but also very high precision, so that the scout is performing its primary task of being a counter to scanners, but I agree that it should probably be closer to 10% than 5, to make it a useful counter. Also, from the way i beleive that scanners are coded, as just an extension of the basic electronics, I think it would be actually relatively easy to implement, but that depends on the way ccp coded for the active scanners, and with a large increase to scan range, i dont think that it is neccessary to run with medium frames in order to hide them A scout- I agree, that it should get an extra equipment, but should probably lose a module slot of some sort in exchange so that it doesnt overpower the other 3 classes Thanks for the feedback!

If you guys read it and tell me what you think, Id appreciate it! You may want to check in with the Minmatar Scouts before suggesting changes to their NK bonuses. Quite a few of them skilled into the suit for this exact reason. As for Gallente bonuses, Scan Range is great, but I personally don't find Scan Precision to be particularly helpful. Double Post: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1729822#post1729822 precision isn't helpful because of three things 1) lopsided role bonus to profile 2) precision mods operating at one meta level below dampening mods 3) precision is mainly just used to catch scouts The easy fix to this would just be to tune precision modules so that they are equivalent to dampener modules Yes, I did kill Archduke Ferdinand.

Gavr1lo Pr1nc1p TRA1LBLAZERS 67	Posted - 2014.01.19 01:48:00 - [11] - Quote An idea to solve the current inter scout disparity would be to modify the current base stats of the scouts, and then implement a better bonus for the amarr scout. First off, buff the base move/sprint speed for all scout suits buy 3%, except for the min which would get 5%, to enhance its role as the fastest scout on the field. Then, give all scouts an inherent stamina bonus of 5% to maximum/recharge rate, except for the amarr scout which would get a 50% stamina bonus to max and recharge rate. This way, the amarr scout is now faster than a minny assault, and has by far the most stamina of any unit in the game. Then, give the amarr scout a very specialized bonus, I was thinking +10% to scrambler pistol magazine capacity per level, this way equally affecting breach, assault and bust variants. It would be very similar to the minmitar nova knife bonus, probably even better, due to how hard nova knives are to use. I think this is a good way to help out the future amarr scouts Yes, I did kill Archduke Ferdinand. I used my nova knives. https://dust514.com/recruit/k3vMnb/

Thing is and the Amarr players of this forum have been dealing with this for a long time..... we don't want bonuses that are neceassarily the most efficient or the "BEST"....we just want bonuses that fit the racial combat inclinations of the Amarr....which so far CCP has not well defined since in and FPS we cannot have resistance modules.

Aero, I can see where you are coming from here, and honestly i do not think that you are pushing this as favouring the Amarr. Please understand that I am not arguing against you, and I hope you understand that I am not against balancing the Amarr scout. The thing is having the ability to but two complex Card Regs on a suit without a stacking penalty will not be good for balance. As I have said before it needs something else, what that is I don't know, but most of the suggestions I have seen are not likely to be balanced either. The confrontational attitude that many (not saying you, but you have verged on it before) take is not one that will produce good dialogue on the subject so I avoid it. Also don't imply that I am slow and need things put simply for me, this is very much not the case. I apologize if my teasing caused offence, honestly I don't think of your posts as whining Aero (and actually was not even thinking of you in that way at all). You are actually someone that I have respect for, and I actually enjoy reading what you have to say. Read my post about a cloaking bonus to drop uplinks with amarr. I think if you coupled this with my inherent base stat buff to all scout drop suits, the amarr scout would be super versatile at scouting/discreetly assaulting a position Yes, I did kill Archduke Ferdinand.

Minmitar- 3x SE's 2x KC's 1x PD Gallente- 3x KC's 1x STD armor plate 1x PRO DM 1x PRO SE Now to compare the stats: Minmitar- Total HP-430.3, 14.2 higher than Gallente, or less than one bullet from an unmodded, STD HMG No armor repair HP No Damage Mod- Does less damage than Gallente Speed=7.91x1.05x1+(.24x1.05)=about 10.39 m/s hacking speed-26.25% faster hacking at maximum skills dB- equal to Gallente, able to dodge non focused proto scanner Less scan radius than Gallente (If someone is willing to do the math, please go for it) Cannot fit a cloak Gallente- Total HP-416.1, 14.2 less than Minmitar Has 3 hp/second repair to armor Does more damage due to added PRO DM ( not sure on the DM's in 1.8; they are being readjusted) Speed=7.68x1.05x.98x1+(.12x3x1.05)=about 10.74 m/s or about a third of a meter per second faster than minmitar dB- equal to minmitar Able to fit a basic cloak While I dont mind the Gallente scout having what it has, I do mind that the minmitar is unable to fit a cloak with max fittings, while sacrificing so much just to be comparable to the Gallente scout.

Gavr1lo Pr1nc1p TRA1LBLAZERS 294	Posted - 2014.01.27 20:02:00 - [29] - Quote what would you guys think if nova knives had a ballistic function added to them? pressing L1 or whatever aiming button brings them up for throwing. you throw one at a time, and can charge them for a 3x damage bonus, with R1, or just tap R1 to release them.

CCP plans on nerfing damage mods, so i will not comment on that these are some possible buffs to reduce armor and shield disparity- STD: (85 armor, 3 PG, 10 CPU) vs (33 shields, 2 PG, 15 CPU) ADV: (110 armor, 6 PG, 20 CPU) vs (55 shields, 4 PG, 36 CPU) PRO: (135 armor, 12 PG, 30 CPU) vs (70 shields, 8 PG, 54 CPU) if anything, the ludicrous costs of shield extenders need to be lowered especially in the pg departments for 3 reasons- 1. At proto level, (their only useful level), they only cost 1 pg less than proto plates, but 24 more cpu 2. Shield tankers (minmitar/caldari) have very low pg, but high cpu 3. Biotic modules which are supposed to be coupled with shields to create a hit and run style of suit cost the most pg of any module in the game, making them unfittable if the user also wants to stack shields In addition, Caldari and minmitar suits need an innate buff to shield recharge delay (not depleted) and recharge rate of about 15-25% ARMOR ALSO NEEDS A BUFF yes i said it. The penalties for movement speed for all plates are backwards in my opinion, and is part of the reason no one uses anything past ADV plates. A solution for this would be to make the penalty constant across all tiers, possibly a 3-4% penalty depending on common opinion. Also, ferroscales and reactive plates are a joke, and i dont even use armor. I think that ferroscales need a slight buff hp wise (5% ish), but should also have very low fitting costs. Reactive plates should have a lower penalty than other plates (1-2%), and have 1/2/3 hp/s respectively for each tier. Also, they are in need of a lower fitting cost by a lot like ferroscales. Also, armor repairers should be moved to high slots. I currently think it is unfair to armor tankers that shield tankers are able to use both high and low slots to tank their suit, while armor tankers must only use low slots. -proposed buff for armor repairers-3/4/5 hp/s per level, and moved to a high slot -Armor repair, however, should not work while taking fire, in other words, add a 1 sec delay after taking fire to armor repair -OTHER MODULES- kincats should affect strafing speed, codebreakers need a lower cpu/pg cost VEHICLES I wont even start trying to balance vehicles, there have been far too many threads on this topic already DROPSUITS When 1.8 comes around, we really are going to see some great new things from all suits.

The core needs a slightly lower blast radius, and the thukker needs a small blast radius (packed at the most), but more damage (in the 400-500 range).

I think I've just learned to create my own fun over time, cause there is very few things I hate to do. Take golf for example. I'm terrible at it. But I'll have a blast at being bad at it. Eh, coulda been the school I went to. Wasn't horrible, but it was terribly boring, and the teachers only let certain people even try out for the teams. Like the rugby team, loved the game, but I was denied access to trying out, the only one I could was the debate team. I hate debating. I used to be decent at golf, but I lost interest in taking it seriously so I just drive the balls down the field for stress relief from time to time. College is a blast, really has been the best time I've had so far. Our school won't let teachers turn you down for teams (unless they were by audition, such as baseball or Drumline). I was okay at football. I NEVER started a game in my life, but I was always on scout team (Made for some painful practices though. I remember the time I got laid out by the other teams RB at full sprint. I took that hit like a champ.) I made some great friends and had a blast at practice. I'm a big advocate for American Football. With the right coach, you can learn a lot more than football in the camps. I learned more than one life lesson, and most importantly, that there is no reason to not try your hardest at something. Making friends with people is surprisingly easy when you've trained, fought, lost and won together. I personally knew that my teammates would flat out carry you on their backs if they had to (which we did on more than one occasion. Coach even made us carry another team-member on our back and run stairs at one point. I may not be the best at football, but my QB knew for a fact that I could carry him up and down a set of stairs 20 times if I had to. Nothing builds trust like that.)

Getting hit by RB's at full speed SUCKS. I then yell at my linebackers for not slowing them down (They get to full speed when they aren't touched AT ALL). I can't just let him run for free, so I run into him and aim for the legs. I only weigh like 170 though, so I got ran over most of the time. FB was even worse, as the guy was easily 230 and could run faster than I could I played RB myself after they found out I couldn't even catch a cold. In my defense, I CAN catch just fine in backyard football and when playing safety. There was just some mental block that killed me when I would realize that if I caught the ball on scout Offense, our Defense would DESTROY ME (They got 3rd at state for a reason. They were brutal). But yeah, football is fun. Makes you really tough after a few years too. i ran a sub 4.65 last summer, and I'm faster now. I play lax too cause I'm fast and i run for all my hits so i hit hard too. Any laxbros out there? The only way to tackle someone who's running is to run even faster and drop a shoulder.

They should remove armor and shield mods because I don't use them and only make it harder for me to kill everyone else. Now seriously it looks fine but I wouldn't know if that is buffing or nerfing either since I don't use them. I don't pay too much attention to the CPU/PG cost of the modules now, but I'd really like it if they would just make the ADV shield modules give 44 shield instead of 33. I actually scaled these new modules the way armor is scaled based off of a baseline 72 hp at proto shields. They are scaled the same way armor is currently scaled. glad you guys like it!! if you want to support my cause in getting shields the recognition for a buff that they deserve, please support my thread in general discussion entitled "An easy fix to the shield and armor disparity" Kills- Archduke Ferdinand Balance!

The suit sure isn't.... the play style sure isn't. Through taking part in the heavies event I'm starting to understand why there's this misconception on the relative OPness of scouts. Had a match where I kept running up against a shotgun scout who was quite good. I think he got me three times out of five while I was running a 1200 EHP heavy, and two of those were from full health. He was able to get up close as soon as my back was turned from quite a distance, even though I was constantly scanning, and by the time I'd turned around to respond to the blasts to the back of the head I'd already be into armor. Added to that, once I could see him, he was so close that he would effectively be standing inside my arc of movement and maintaining a track was difficult. I can see how this could appear to be lag/rendering issue to someone, even though the reality was just exploiting the limited field of view and his speed and willingness to get up close an personal The funny thing is, as a strat, this would be just as effective with a medium suit if they were willing to run up and stand next to a heavy/medium to get the kill. Most scout use binary fits, where you either very rapidly overwhelm the opposition, or very rapidly die. People only remember the rapid overwhelming bit because they think it shouldn't be possible from a suit that falls apart if you frown at it, and not how easy it is for them to kill a scout if they catch them out. that pretty accurately sums it up Kills- Archduke Ferdinand Balance!

You want to drag hollow real world threats into something this trivial? As far as the SG fix goes: The way the shotgun suffers in my opinion is that it's reticule does not match it's firing area across it's range. Less dispersion as Appia prefers means that more pellets land in a concentrated area, (essentially throwing slugs instead of scatter) This means the existing damage model is effective, but the reticule should change to reflect it. Greater dispersion would require more damage, either through a damage increase per pellet, or an increase in the amount of pellets thrown. If this cover the reticule in a meaningful way then the SG would have less problems, I think. Why is it always the SG that starts things around here ok fine. i got kinda mad but i didn't threaten.

I really mean it. The bonuses made sense. Both scout suits had the dampening bonus, because getting seen as a scout is ***** stupid and having one "stealth scout" is ***** stupid. You're either a "stealth scout" or "not actually a scout" IMHO. Also this idea of having counter scout hunters I don't like either. We called BS when the counter to Tanks was "More Tanks" and I'm calling BS now on the idea of using any scout to counter other scouts. I've warmed a little to the idea of Amarr swapping damp for precision as they're a kinda of bridge between light and medium and they're limited to two highs, and will be vulnerable to a medium with a scanner. But ultimately we can't let them become the radar beacons we currently have. Scout on Scout tended to be blind "ninjas in the dark" fights. The real counter to scouts was a high level scanner and any one spotting a glimpse of you. Even just having people know you're there in the area was a threat so "Some Margin of Error" was a partial counter. This was a concern I had back when the details for 1.8 were announced and was why I waited a month before even trying 1.8. I've generally kept quiet on how much I hate this paradigm we're working with because there's been some support/acceptance of it here from scouts I respect and consider far more experienced that I, so I ran with it and tried to work with it. But I'm watching us just go around and around in circles and it's driving me mad. Yeah we lacked quite a bit in speciality. So one of us getting hacking etc was a decent idea. As far as HP goes everything should be built around fast repping. Perhaps a flat bonus to all rep/recharge modules wouldn't go astray. Maybe I'm just getting frustrated because I'm being told a scout that's hard to scan and has it's own decent passive scans is OP by people who have no idea what I had pre 1.8 because scouts apparently didn't exist back then, the fact that my bread and butter for 6 months was an undampened BPO shotty and that SCAN ATTEMPT PREVENTED was almost burnt onto my screen meant nothing to them, running that build now is suicide. Or another player that said scouts shouldn't even be consulted on balancing because they "ruined chromosome" despite me not being here at that time, nor that even being relevant. Appia's right, take away the Gal precision and give them such a bonus to range and angle that they'll be the ballirinas of old. People run the passive scan scout build to see medium and heavy frames as well. If your hand held scanner has roughly the same precision but heaps more range then I think people will run it. Gal logis will be forced to not just tank and run a proto scanner to see scouts, forcing scouts to at least dampen. But this issue of losing half of your mod slots to be the invisible bastard you were born to be is bollocks. And I'm saying this as a Gal scout who doesn't have this problem. Also my conversations with folks is making me realise that only 50% of balancing discussions are actually based on the game and the rest is based on player trends. Look at the sudden switch to RE spam late last year, what changed? They were always deadly, but somewhere along the line people noticed it and it became the new Core Locus spam. And we're currently experiencing this with the scout passive scan. And people forgetting that ballarina scans even existed is making me smash my head into the table. So sorry if this seems mis-placed but this whole thing is driving me up the wall and is ultimately the reason why I've stepped away for the time being. I'm not raging at you guys here, I know it's bad for my health but when I set foot out this door and talk to anyone I facepalm. Please don't take this to be an attack on any specific bastards, it's not, but I worry we're trying to polish a turd here.

We really want EWAR to be less binary, so I want to play with bonuses so that a dedicated scout with all slots, can evade even the best precision, but only while cloaked, but the gallente would retain the ability to be unscannable out of cloak. The numbers in the document are just something I was playing around with last night while proof reading the calculations, but they should be correct. Let's iterate on this over the weekend and early next week and see if we can't make it a little better then "ok". EWAR Calculations So you're saying that all scouts should require 2x complex damps to dodge the best scans but only if they use a proto cloak? No offense intended but that is a poor idea, as it takes away from modules like kin cats or range amps or cardiac regulators that some scouts (myself included) rely upon. I think the real problem comes down to being able to stack armor plates in the low slots while being unscannable, and id REALLY LOVE if there was a way to increase the speed penalty only for scouts/lights, making it very unnapatizing to use plates, and allowing scouts more freedom in their fittings in a competitive setting. Remember, in a PC match or a pub stomp or a competitive FW match, the best scans are going to be the ONLY scans, and there will be a few dedicated people whose only purpose is to use them at all times, making it necessary to dodge those scans. By requiring two damps to do so, the min/cal scout will be, pardon my french, screwed in every competitive setting due to their lack of an ability to use any other scoutly modules such as range amps or kin cats. Please reconsider this. If we continue to pursue the idea of a scout being a scout only if they have maxed out skills, can fit a proto cloak (minmitar can't btw if they run PG intensive modules), and completely ignore every EWAR and biotic module or tank module for dampeners. The real problem is EWAR + Brick tanking. EWAR is what the scout should be best at, so instead of screwing them through EWAR, why don't we nerf the scouts ability to plate stack/shield stack where they should be using range amps or kin cats or cardiac regulators by increasing the speed penalties and delay penalties by two (2) for light frames? If this happened, suits would look more like these-- http://www.protofits.com/fittings/shared/0/5408 http://www.protofits.com/fittings/shared/0/5409 ---Assumes PG reduction for KinCats http://www.protofits.com/fittings/shared/0/5410 http://www.protofits.com/fittings/shared/0/5411 If you look at these, none of them have the "pigeonholing" effect that is happening right now, but none of them are "OP" IMHO as they are good at EWAR and being stealthy while knowing where the more assault based frames (medium/heavy) are at all times so they can avoid them or pick them off if they happen to leave the pack. I'd also really appreciate if you at least told me what you thought on my ideas even if it is harsh and you tell me "No, that would make scouts overpowered." Kills- Archduke Ferdinand Balance!

We lose a bit of slaying ability, but not much. We only lose that Kincat slot to be INVISIBLE. I would much rather be sprinting at 8.31 and be invisible than to be scanned and sprinting at 9.35. Damp > Speed If you don't want to hack, stack shields and damps. You can still slay really well with your shields and weapons. Also: We are getting a PG buff. Remember that. We can totally run what we need to now. It is kind of a shame in an ironic way that the fastest suit can't use biotic modules without ******* itself... "Minmitar Scout" and "Masochist" are synonyms.

We can also reduce the dampening bonus of the cloak to zero. From a "I want all scouts to be unscannable in some way even by sacrificing all slots and cloak" point of view, I think we need to have that discussion. I think we can tune these numbers to an acceptable resolution. It also removes the waves of opportunity discussion, such as Minja activating cloak to bypass the resident precision scanner at objective. What do you think of making that a ninja thing (the active dampening that is)? Perhaps if we removed the cloaks dampening and made it minmitar only? However, the cloak right now is useless outside of reducing scan profile in a competitive environment, or against a team that can see you, as the invisibility really isn't all that great. Also, If it were possible, i think doubling the speed penalty on plates for scout suits is better than making plates have a profile nerf, as that will be even more severe IMHO. The real reason people brick a scout is because they want a faster assault suit with better scans. IF they are bricking, they don't really care about profile, they just want their speed, smaller hit box, and better scans "Minmitar Scout" and "Masochist" are synonyms. Kills-Archduke Ferd1nand

There is no other way about it. Modules will need to be classified into 3 categories-Utility, Light Combat, and Heavy Combat (note: these are just what I'm calling them, they mean absolutely nothing) Ill try to compile a spreadsheet later for the modules, but the idea is that utility modules require next to nothing to fit, light combat would cost more, and heavy combat a lot more. From there, scouts would have their fittings severely reduced (but the cloak bonus would increase to 20% per level), assaults/commandos/logis would get a slight buff, and sentinels stay the same. Scouts would be able to fit mostly utility and some light combat modules, with maxed skills the ratio could be as great as 1:1 Assaults/Logis could fit mostly light combat modules with some heavy and some utility mixed in as well (in equal ratios), probably something like 1:4:2 or 1:3:3 Commandos could fit mostly light and and heavy modules, perhaps occasionally utility and heavy as well. Light and heavy would be 1:1 Sentinels would be able to fit almost all heavy modules with perhaps one light with maxed skills. Ratio would be 4:1 From there, we can completely rebalance the entire CPU/PG system so that scouts can no longer brick without screwing over their fits, in as much the same way that Assaults/Logis/Commandos can't fit a cloak without screwing over their whole fit Please consider this; I know its very conceptual right now, but if we can get the community to work together, i feel this is the correct direction to move in "Minmitar Scout" and "Masochist" are synonyms.

Also, will you be giving signature penalties to all plates or just complex. I recommend the latter, because otherwise assaults will be impacted negatively. This is bad and you should feel bad. Allowing scouts to dodge scans WITHOUT using more than 2 modules is bait for the old Gal Problem. With one damp, I can give you a Gal scout with around 700 HP, be invisible, sprint at over 9m/s and run full proto. THIS IS BAD. 2.) Here is the main problem we are trying to address. eWAR. eWAR is in a VERY sorry spot right now, mainly due to the fact that there is no BALANCE to scanning/precision. One is king, and the other is USELESS in these scenarios. IF we have to have one be useless, let's make precision useless. Back in the old days, scouts were nigh impossible to detect to eachother. Scout battles became "Fighting in the Dark". Lots of skill involved. I want to move back to that stage. Scouts can't do their job if scanned. Scouts should not counter scouts. Active Scanners should counter scouts, but in waves of opportunity (Scans being unable to perma-scan). It would follow this: Scout beats heavy (Slow target that is blind to the scout) Heavy beats Med (Tons of HP and DPS.) Med beats scout (Only a bit slower, can dodge scans with damps, and has an HP advantage) Notice how I mention med frames running damps. Meds used to run TONS of damps in PC, due to the fact that they could avoid scouts. This gave them their place in the above statement. Heavies were then PROTECTED by the Med frames. Med frames and heavies engaged each other, with scouts running along the edges of the skirimish and eliminating lone targets and assassinating heavies if they could get away with it. THIS is the goal we should be working towards IMO. I would love to hear a response from you on this Rattati. I would go into detail, but it's dinnertime. EDIT: Playing Tales of Symphonia right now, but will check periodically. Also, if you do this: DON'T forget about the vehicle scanners as well This^^^^ Scouts should not be screwing their fits over to dodge lolpermascan85mcalscouts, they should be balanced by the active scanner. The active scanner should become THE ultimate anti-scout tool, not a cal/amarr scout. TL;DR Balance scout precision with med/heavy frames, not other scouts,a nd make the active scanner useful again, even against scouts, but never EVER reintroduce perm scans. Make it a "waves of opportunity" with gallogis being the ones generating the largest tide "Minmitar Scout" and "Masochist" are synonyms. Kills-Archduke Ferd1nand

Seriously, though: I think that it's a bit of a shell game making a suit bonus intrinsic to the suit and then adding another bonus. As a new Min scout I don't really have a solid opinion on the suit yet, but would the bastards want to give up a current bonus to receive a cloak bonus (after the updates from hotfix Charlie, which makes stealth more of an option)? Would it be fair not to give it up and just add a cloak bonus on top? 50% lol And yeah me and Appia are all good now we even did a PC together where i went miserably negative, but i saw her get a KLA-90 kill And it would be, but rattati only wants 2 bonuses per suit :/ If we could keep all three, it would be in no way imbalanced but the heavy/med frame community would jump all over it and argue about how OP it is "Wah instagib NK's on a suit i can't lolcrutchpermascan" I really feel the best way to go about it would be to make it innate to the suit itself (similar to the amarr with stamina, if I'm not mistaken) Also, its fun to play with you as well "Minmitar Scout" and "Masochist" are synonyms.

If the clack dampening gets applied as a baseline (10% for all clacks, Rattati took it under consideration, so no telling yet) then it shouldn't be necessary. I'm happy with two dampeners and a cloak being the baseline for passive invisibility. If it doesn't, then I'm more than happy to support a push. The thing i don't understand is why it shouldn't be added-The only thing it lets minja's do is stack 1 more kin cat/codebreaker in the low that they can free up. Also, its a weaker bonus as it requires a cloak to work, and has a downtime, whereas the gal requires no cloak for the same benefit, except 100% uptime, albeit losing a low in the process. The worst thing i could think of is it being used to tank armor, but really? If you add a plate, you need a rep per. If you add a non-ferro, you lose a LOT of speed and hacking potential for a max of 150 HP extra, which only an idiot would do with a minja. You'd have sub-assault speeds, with sub-assault HP, and only dampening would be what you're good at. "Minmitar Scout" and "Masochist" are synonyms. Kills-Archduke Ferd1nand

There are no fixes. The majority of us have an agreement that 100% backwards movement speed is absolutely stupid and has no reason to exist in DUST 514. Reducing backwards movement ratio will result in higher performance of Nova Knives and Shotguns where people can just backpedal their way out of your range.

It would literally take a two-year-old and support from both political parties to un- the government, but its never going to happen. Take the educational system for example. We have whats called the NCLB act (no child left behind), which was designed to ensure that all children are given equal educational opportunities. However, what ended up happening (and what could have been predicted by someone with an IQ over 80) is that schools simply ended up lowering their standards and falling into negative feedback loops which only caused the system to proliferate. Now, the loopholes and problems in the act are so easy to fix that my 9 year old sister could do it if she wanted, but the government is literally just a pissing match right now between Republicans and Democrats who each think that they're doing whats right, but in reality are simply being puppets of the people who they get their votes (and thus livelihood from), who are, in turn being puppets of the media which is basically designed to set people on one of two sides: "liberal" or "Conservative". These words have absolutely no meaning and are just constructs propagated by the media and people with ulterior motives who seek to use the political situation to their advantage.

I see you are discussing a few things that I can clarify Cloak is not going away, we will keep trying to patch it up with further testing. I would rather not remove content. Shotguns, lack of progression is one thing, it seems militia SG's are almost as useful as proto. Second, it's the lack of awareness, I don't know about you guys but the 3rd person sound from a shotgun is a whispery "thip, thip", to me. It doesnt sound anything like the "BLAOING" 1st person sound. It's basically "was that a shotgun, yes, it was, respawn" I know I get killed by SG scouts all the time, but it's usually carelessness rather than OP, I'm just running over open empty space from a spawn point to the next red dot and there is a lurker who is doing nothing but camping people like me between spawn and the action. I usually don't survive two in a medium. This is of course all pub, I can't speak to PC viability. And to my last point on the SG, the data I'm referring to is not just FOTM, look how many people are using it. I am studying Kill/Spawn ratios and it is well above the other light weapons, right up there with Scrambler Rifle. Dividing by spawn removes FOTM aspect, it's just I get more kills on average for SG than AR f.ex. Anything else I can clarify? Any insights/requests on the Charlie meta and balance? Delta threads are hitting the forums imminently as well. Thanks for checking back! Shotguns aren't OP, but they only perform well against Med Frames and Scouts. They can 1-2HK anything short of a heavy. Heavies REQUIRE 3-4 shots to kill. Most of the time, they can quickly turn and kill you before that final shot. Even worse if they have rep. Sound could use some improvement. Most of us have ears tuned in for it though, but for newbro's it must be quite a surprise. Not surprised about the SG kill data. It is used to STOMP pubs hard due to all the blueberries in MLT frames (Which can all be OHK). I doubt that it would carry over to PC. Right now, the deadliest things in PC are small missile turrets, Burst HMG's and Combat Rifles (With shotguns coming in a behind them.) As for fixing the cloak? I honestly think that the best way to fix it is to simply make it impossible to use as a "Sneak Attack" weapon. For example, give it a very long cloaking and de-cloak time. Like 2-3 seconds. Which you can't "Switch out of". You have to click the button to turn it off. However, to balance it, you give it no shimmer. It makes you almost totally invisible. This will turn the cloak into an Insertion and Removal tool. Used to sneak in and around, not to sneak right up on top of someone and unleash doom into their back. You would cloak to get in, and then use flanking and dampening to maneuver around targets (combined with eWAR modules). You get what I'm saying? I'm more than happy to reply with clarification. Only problem I would have with less shimmer is now that ALL scouts can achieve 14db with cloak ther is no counter to double invisible scouts. less shimmer for less dampening bonus the cloak has to have a counter and scouts already have no counter to profile because even though many don't choose to 14db is possible while cloaked. Its called eyes...the counter to a dual dampened scout isn't going to be you being able to track him through walls--he sacrificed a lot to get under scans, and is very easy to kill "Minmitar Scout" and "Masochist" are synonyms.

Every other role in the game (aside from vehicles) allows you to be killed by any weapon in the game. Why should equipping a specific weapon in your light weapon slot make you any different? Look, personally, I wish they just removed the redline and made it so that if the enemy team got redlined, random spawns would appear on the map (OMS installations that would randomly drop already hacked). This would solve soooo many problems, and snipers wouldn't need a range reduction. However, 600m is unnecessary, ridiculous, and allows for unfair gameplay for all parties involved. Being uncountable to everything other than suicide ADS runs is ridiculous, and defending that mechanic is moronic. The ability to be invulnerable to everything needs to be fixed. I acknowledge that snipers are in a terribad place right now, and are completely non-viable outside of pubs, but before they can be buffed into viability, the mechanics and meta themselves need to be fixed. I do, however, support a HS multiplier buff so that heavies and slow moving mediums can be killed because pinging a couple head shots into them would be a lot easier, while scouts can be bodyshotted to death. Following a range nerf, a damage buff would be a good follow up to a HS multiplier buff, IMHO.

If you make it like that, it fits minmitar suits like a charm, which IMHO is the ideal situation, each weapons fittings playing to their respective race's suits' fitting strengths.

Sadly I don't have time to go into details at the moment. Essentially my thinking was, that instead of limiting scout suit's ability to fit like a light assault, CCP make it easier for assault suits to do the same. Tank modules are very effective, hence why scout suits stacking hp can become an "assault light" suit without too much difficulty. You get decent hp from modules and good regen, speed and EWAR from scout base stats. This is a very good fit for solo slaying as EWAR is very effective. Sadly if an assault wants to do the same thing by fitting EWAR and regen mods instead of tank it is more difficult as EWAR mods are poor in comparison to tank mods. If it only took 1 range extender to give an assault a scan range approaching a scout I think that would be balanced. Nobody could complain about tanked scouts if an assault can make the same fit (same with logis). Currently assault suits are kind of limited in fitting options as EWAR mods are ineffective for them. Buffing range extenders opens up more passive scanning fitting opportunities for medium suits and gives more reason for mediums to use dampeners, adding to variety. I managed to make a good approximation of a tanked scout using a min assault suit, but it was let down by having to fit 2 comp range extenders to get to a scout suit's base scan range. Scanning is not really much use bellow about 25m i feel. I'm inclined to agree. Build diversity is healthy, and Assaults are currently afforded precisely zero reason to ever use a Range Extender. If it paid them utility comparable to that of plates or reps, perhaps they'd use it in pubs (though I strongly doubt they'd use it in PC). That said, I'm under the impression from Cross here that Logis are the suits in need of hugs ... namely something they can be made good at which won't overlap too far into the role of an existing specialist. Assaults are exceptionally good in their role at the moment (kicking arse) ... do they actually need free hugs?

That's the point of these talks, Gav. The Shotgun by itself is a pretty crap, but add a low-profile scout to the equation and its suddenly good. We're looking at tweaking the second part of that equation. I have shotgunned almost exclusively following my frustration and refusal to knife any more (around 1.3?), following going 2/25 against a full Q-Sync of slayer Logi's. I have always speed tanked my scout suit, and used it. I have endured the days where a militia assault rifle was better than nova knives or a SG at 5 meters. I have killed my fair share of "good" shotgunners with my own shotgun, and countless medium frames besides. The first time I used a drop suit that was neither a minmitar scout or a militia drop suit was a month ago when I skilled into minmitar heavies. I have been using my shotgun for more than a year, iirc. I have used it on a minmitar scout exclusively. I have played around 100 PC's in my career on this character, and have used a SG in probably 85-90 of them. These^^are my credentials, as little as they matter. From my experience, though many of you probably think that it may be little, I have come to understand that there are really just three factors that will allow you to win in a 1v1 or 1v2 scenario. HP, positioning, and speed. HP is HP, driver from plates and extenders. Very simple. If you don't have enough HP, you'll be killed as you flank, or when your enemy turns around. Positioning is even more important, and can be gained from eWAR modules, with dampening to allow yourself to make a play, or precision to see when a good to move in for the kill is. Speed is what allows you to firstly get into your positioning, eWAR aside, and secondly is necessary for the mad scramble in CQC. Even more underrated, however, is the ability to use speed to turn 2 or 3v1's into 2 or 3 1v1's. You can't be an effective shotgunner unless you have a part of each of the three in moderation. The current system forces you to do that. "Minmitar Scout" and "Masochist" are synonyms. FA's Shotgunning T-Dome Champ Give the Minja active dampening!--By Bor

In addition, were getting a fire delay in 1.9 (which is needed, i guess. It prevents people from sitting in a corner and uncloaking and instapopping every blueberry in a scrub suit that walks by. I just hope it isn't overdone. If it is anymore than what the proposed (.33s) value is, it'll be useless) 3. The scout is balanced, but if nerfed in any way, will be rendered absolutely useless except as a shared passives tool for HMG heavies or slayer assaults. So whats my point? The shotgun scout is balanced. People just need to realize that alpha weapons should be able to kill them, and that it isn't a scrub tactic. "Minmitar Scout" and "Masochist" are synonyms.

If so, then I wholeheartedly think that that is stupid. 25% should be the max, ever. Even with a ridiculous 85% scan range nerf, this doesn't account for the fact that scouts will not need to put ANYTHING in their lows to dampen, which is outrageous IMO. Unless, of course, we make up for this by using range amps to replace the ridiculous nerf. It should be a 50% reduction to range AT MOST, 25% being much more reasonable. Dampening should be 10-25% at all tiers. Seriously, the cloak will now be worthless to equip. Unless we get more dampening or invisibility from it, I want a fuckin refund from my scout suit.

It is not even remotely reasonable to demand that someone spend 4 low slots on complex modules to counter the effect of a single bonused module. These are obscene module counts that you are suggesting to counter minor investments by scouts. 4 complex dampeners is utterly crippling to any medium frame - 1 precision enhancer is not. If an Amarr scout is required to throw on just one precision enhancer and then medframes are obligated to spend 4 modules to evade it, the medframes are not going to spend the modules to evade it. To suggest that they would is absurd. That Amarr scout can then comfortably out-tank any medframe stupid enough to try evading scout scans, while maintaining huge EWAR advantages and all the other wonders that scout suits confer. Yet it IS reasonable for my Minmatar Scout to have to equip 3 Complex Damps AND not only a proto cloak, but to have it ACTIVE in order to beat a single slot on the Gal Logi?

Controversial to remove the Min knife bonus, but Min scouts would still be best knifers with damp bonus and highest speed. Would be nice to make knives better for other scouts as well. Codebreakers in highs. Allows Min scouts to focus on hacking without sacrificing speed or damps. Gives all suits more high slot options, particularly useful for all scouts if shields and precision mods are going to have penalties. What do people think?

Destroying EQ: This is every roles job, but scouts are naturally good at it because of passives. I wouldn't put it as a main job though, as everyone has to contribute to destroying links and hives. 6. Attacking Null Cannons: A scout blitzkrieg used to be a lot more fearsome, but they can help with flanking while the assaults catch up, to soften up hard targets like Sentinels that may be entrenched around an objective. 7.
