Ghost Kaisar Intrepidus XI Omega Commission 2	Posted - 2013.06.30 02:15:00 - [1] - Quote Ghost reporting in. Just about a month deep into the game and about 2.5k Kills deep (1.4 k/d, 1.5 W/L) ADV Minja with Knives, Scanners, and SMG's. For those who haven't used scanners, they are excellent in finding the "hole" in the enemy line. Scan away and slip in to do some massive knifing. The run away screaming when people finally get whats up lol.

The key to a scouts survival is map awareness this tool provides it. Don't leave home without it :) You see, I have an ADV Quantum Scanner, and I love it! But with so little CPU and PG, I can't afford to run the darn thing without sacrificing what little shields I have. They are effective in finding the "gaps" in the strawberries defenses, and allows us to track our opponents through walls, and is an invaluable component. +1. Everyone needs to try this. Also, @Shotty I love this registry! I was playing a round today and noticed a familiar name on the scoreboard before heading in. It was WhyCantIDie. I was running around on ambush, and saw 2 people fall to ProtoKnives by him. So I head to that area (which was clear by then) and see a Scout running with knives. I pull out mine and melee the air at him. And so it began. The most intense 30 seconds of my Dust Career. We were both rocking proto knives and Minja's, so one shot was death (which was why it lasted so long). I managed to catch him with a well-timed swipe as he attempted to run and turn. Sent him a message afterwards telling him how awesome it was. And it was all thanks to your freaking awesome job with this registry. +2

They probably had no idea how to react to this.

Dom. it's a bit harder, for the number of hostiles in one spot. In OMS, it's amazing, but there's no point. It's really hard to notice other scouts doing the same, but I'm positve it happens. In skirm. I tip my hat to those scouts who go across the map with their one-equipment backpacks and hack that point. It's truly a small blessing. I turn the tide in our favor and win. I can see this clearly. Sometimes when I go CQs, I am glad for the brave folks who hack objectives across the map it helps a ton! It works in PC's at rare points. Played a game vs. OSG and happened to notice that they left E unguarded except for one guy. Knifed him, and hacked the objective. 5 people spawned in right before the hack finished and I ran back to the bridge. They seemed to forget about my teammates as they chased me down and ran into my teams fire on open ground. We took the objective and held it for awhile until they retook their anchor. Not a big victory, but defiantly turned the tide. We won by about 3 ticks on the MCC, and that cap probably won the game in the long run.

Fourth Rule of Knife Club: Only two scouts to a fight. Fifth Rule of Knife Club: One fight at a time Brothers Sixth Rule of Knife Club: No medium Frames, No Heavy Frames. Seventh Rule of Knife Club: Fights will go on as long as they have to. Eighth and Final Rule of Knife Club: If it is your first night at Knife Club, you have to fight.

OR just switch weapons and knife it out right there on the spot. Check back a few pages. Me and WhyCantIDie did this awhile ago. Just whip out the knives and melee the air. People get the message

I use it to kill wounded enemies or to get people to back off when they try to chase.

If they gain a little more UMPH to the suit, it would be a viable option. Other wise, it is just rush, uplink, change suit. But it really does. My play-style depends on Speed. I feel sluggish without 2 knicats (10.01m/s), because I flank I am away from the logi so I need an Armor Repairer. 3 Low Slots right there. The changes to Stamina makes me place a Cardiac Regulator in that 4th slot. I run proto all-day, every-day. The prices should be costing me that much per suit. 130K/suit. I've got the Covenant Suit, and both dragonfly suits. If I really need to make some ISK quick I go in an ambush with those, but I haven't done that this month. Yeah, imagine if you only had 2 low slots :( the extra high slots are nice, but my suit doesnt have enough cpu/pg to make up for it.

I don't know what information I need to give you, so if you catch me in the Scout chat let me know what you need. Nothing. He will go and add you as a contact and use the data from the game. At least I believe that is how it works
Ghost Kaisar Intrepidus XI EoN. 149	Posted - 2013.07.16 14:59:00 - [16] - Quote Here is my confession. I put an assault rifle on my scout suit, dumped the stamina and kept the speed. I did really well though. It functions great as a mid-range hit and run character. Use cover from mid range, and light people up, then use your speed to get back to cover or flank really fast. I still sprint at about 8.7 m/s and have around 300 eHP on my ADV suit, split half and half armor and shields. Also, I have wanted to jump into thunderdome for awhile. Anyone wanna do this with me? Watched the video, and there is a supreme lack of scouts

Is this a feasible tactic; can you drop better players or is this a noob hunter fit? Honestly, I haven't used an AR at all for the last 6 months, so couldn't give a balanced comparison. That said, especially as a scout, you can close to SMG distance really easy and most AR users play well within the optimal range anyway because they don't actually know their limits. The M209 also has really high DPS if you can get into that range; just make sure your secondary is something with some decent range, like a scrambler pistol ;) The M209 can rip through players if you are accurate. You should hit with 95% of your shots in CQC and about 75% at longer ranges. In CQC, I believe that it's DPS is higher than an AR. Need to do some number crunching.

Yeah, my corp is having me switch to Shotgun/SMG combo instead of Knive/SMG. And it's true, the shotgun is a more reliable CQC weapon against multiple opponents.

Proto SGs fit your criteria, though I find them to be too costly and resource intensive. I recommend the CRG or K5. On paper, use a Breach Shotgun. It has amazing damage over range, and easily annihilates targets with it's high DMG. In reality, use what shotty said. With hit detection the way it is now, you will need multiple shots to kill targets, and the 2 rounds the Breach has isn't enough.

Given the sustained activity in this thread, I'd be surprised if it has gone unnoticed. Short of a Dev or CPM response, however, we have no way of knowing if it has registered on their radar. We do know that the Devs took note of the Scout Community's declining performance. Anyhow, I'm glad you brought this up, PseudoSnipre. When 1.3 is released, I intend to reset our performance statistics so we can see right away if the new build helps or hurts us. I'm slightly butthurt that Scouts didn't get a Hotfix in 1.2. I'll be supremely butthurt if we get boned again in 1.3. We'll know in a couple weeks. - Shotty GoBang If this helps any, vehicle scanners dont show up on the users radar and people around me have mentioned a lack of REDS popping up when activated. Side note I am not departed as a scout but trying a different roll. Vehicle remote repairing. While I am a scout, GAL assault, and a tanker ( I do use the scout more), I will be focusing less on kill as basically, being a giant underpaid repper. So yeah, being tri-specced. i hope this doesnt kick me from this board but if so, i will stay active here. I'll be hard mode like the rest of yah. I have a friend that runs Rep tool on a scout. He runs from person to person repping super fast, and then getting out of harms way. It would be cool if we had a light suit with two equipment slots (hinted at for the minmatar). This would give us loads of possibilites. I could have DL's and Scanners (scout the area, and set up a secure drop link), or Injector and Rep tool (run through the battle and save soldiers in time, plus to rep them quickly and get out). What I really want (suit wise) is an extra low slot for Minne Proto. What do I want? (ARMOR REP) When do I want it? (As fast as CCP can possibly do it which is not a very good chance of it happening anytime soon but I will still wait for it! takes a breath)

I'm all business at medium range with the AR, and I ditch the AR and pull out these knives at close range. I still use the SMG when I play on maps where I will never leave the compound, but on some of the larger maps, I pull of the AR, because It will really suit me better.

With the start of school, I didn't have time but 1.4 seems to be really good for the assassin gameplay that I love (stay off radar, stab those who aren't paying attention and shred suprises with an SMG).

Ghost Kaisar Pradox One 258	Posted - 2013.09.16 19:30:00 - [41] - Quote Okay, I need to ask some questions from a Gal Scout. I have run minnie suit since the get-go. I love how I can have 217 shields and 74 armor and still run like the dickens. I love how quickly I can get back in the fight because of using shields. However, I find my use in a squad a bit lacking, as I can never run useful items like Range amplifiers and codebreakers. If I run these items, I sacrifice my speed. So, here are my questions. 1.) Is the racial bonus to Range amplification really noticeable in this patch? On paper, it looks freaking fantastic (20m radius = 3.14(20^2)= 1256m^2 which would cover 1/5 of an american football field. 2.) How much eHP does a Gal scout normally run at? I am worried about how this would affect my combat capabilities. (also, try and keep in mind my thoughts as to running a team oriented scout suit. I would only have 1 low slot for armor as I would use Red/green pill in my low, along with a range amplifier) 3.) From a hacker: How noticeable is the hacking skill + codebreaker. In short, will I be able to sneak into an objective and quickly hack and GTFO. I will happily field any questions about a Minnie scout in return. Ghost out.

Hi Ghost, I'd advise caution before switching from Minnie to Gal, as we're merely weeks away from better Nova Knife mechanics. On the topic of squad support, I highly recommend running an Active Scanner. Shared squad-sight is supposed to be disabled, so stacking Range Amps won't benefit your buddies. Short of dropping fancy Uplinks, Recon is a Scout's best bet at contributing to his squad. And nothing beats the Active Scanner when it comes to Recon. If you're willing to sacrifice speed, the Pro Gal makes for a decent armor tank (Marauder comes to mind). But I'd take a Minnie's shields and base speed over the Gal's armor any day. Guess it comes down to your choice of weaponry and playstyle. Seems to me more folks are running anti-armor weaponry than anti-shield weaponry. At the moment, I'd say a Shield Scout is better than an Armor Scout for hit-and-run. Once knives are squared away, you guys are gonna be deadly in CQC. My two cents as a GalScout. o7 PS: Radar's one of our most experienced. He routinely runs Minja w/Proto Knives and a Gek (if I recall). "Effective" is an understatement. This guy's a terrifying opponent. Thanks for all the feedback guys. As for the Active Scanner, I already have squadmates running that. So my real concern then would be the Hacking Modules. Yeah, I love my knives but they are broken right now :( Gotta say though, that 32m Radius looks downright sexy on paper. However, one more Low slot would erase all of my doubts for my Minnie suit.

Three among our humble ranks have recently founded Scout-only corps: Kodho - Hidden Suppression Lightning xVx - R 0 N 1 N Travi Zyg - The Butter Knife Bandit Kodho (Scout Sniper) has demonstrated exceptional prowess in killing from afar whilst remaining unseen. Lightning xVx (Shotgun Scout) is feared throughout New Eden, having earned the reputation of squad killer. Travi Zyg (Assassin) is well-versed in all things Knives and Nades. If you see him, it is because he wanted you to. If you're a Scout in the market for a corp/training or dig the idea of hunting alongside a pack of Raptors, I would encourage you to get in touch with these guys. o7 Happy Hunting, Shotty GoBang EDIT: The above Corps aren't exclusive by weapon type, though their founders are specialists in their respective roles. You need only be a Scout or Light-Frame to apply. Is this guy accepting applicants for training? I know that I still have a lot to learn here. After contemplating the Gal scout, I feel that my greatest strength so far is my knives. So, I'm out to master them, and my Assassin style of gameplay. That means lots of knife duels, lotsa practice, and a lot to learn. By the way, I did have a knife fight today. Djinn Marauder beat Ghost Kaisar. Total is now 1-1 Doubletapp420 beat Djinn Marauder. Total is now 1-0 Highlight of the day? Blueberries spawned on Doubletapp's Link. We just watched as Marauder tore through 4 of them.

Went straight into being a scout when I first started this game lol. I enjoy the high mobility, low damage tolerance gameplay because I'm use to this style ever since playing Team Fortress 2. Started with a .98 k/d and I'm only getting better now. I use the pistol instead of the smg, feels more satisfying when I kill an enemy running away with it lol. Anyways, hope to learn some more tricks of being a scout shotty in this game. Have fun getting used to the lack of a double jump. The lack of a boston accent was the worst for me.

If you are good you can kill the majority of players before they line you up, even if you were naked. How would you fair against an equally skilled player in an Assault suit? At close range the SMG, when skilled into it as you are, has a DPS advantage over the Assault Riffle, but the Assault suit has more of a EHP advantage over he Scout suit. You used to be able to negate this by firing on the Assault suit while jumping around and orbiting them because the SMG had better tracking speed and no kick, while a moving target with a small hit box used to be hard to hit. Now, everything is easier to hit, including Scouts, so to win a stand up fight, you need to line up your shot and start firing faster than the other guy and aim for the face. If you have the skill to do that, you may still be successful, but the average Scout is not going to fair very well. I have Proficiency 4, and Sharpshooter 3, but have not bothered with Rapid Reload and Ammo. I will say though that since I am old, this is my first consol game (although I did play Pong when it was new) and this is my first FPS since Doom in 1993, I am not a particularly good shot. Although my aim is vastly improved over when I started and I may now rate as Poor, rather than GÇ£absolutely horribleGÇ¥. This applies mainly to Proto Suits. Proto suits are hard as hell to kill, and that falls under the scout's idea of "if it's out of your class, run away". Most above average players in ADV-PROTO suits require a different approach, which is what you are referring to with the baiting tactic. Which is completely correct. If you see yourself outclassed, use speed and maneuverability to engage the enemy on your own terms. I was arguing against using it as such against every enemy. But yes, against tough opponents, using the SMG as such is what separates the men from the boys.

The Burst The pistol that is the most fun to use. It is UP in terms of Clip size and ammunition but even if you land just 2/3 of the shots as headshots, they are going down. Headshot master of the headshot weapon. It seems to have a little better range too, or at least it's better at longer ranges. The Tactical OK I used it extensively today and I would not recommend it as a Bread & Butter pistol but it's certainly a weird flavor. It has less damage and is practically like the Assault except for CPU/PG strain. However, it's got a longer range and 2x ADS zoom. Pretty good for lining up better headshots because the gun is less in the way of aiming due to zoom. I just love running up to someone, pumping 3 pistol shots to the chest and then melee'ing them to death afterwards. PISTOL WHIP!

You can come back to dust the way you want to with a fresh slate. All it will take is about 6-7 months. Is anyone else kinda intrigued by this idea?

Ghost what's ur nova knife fit? Do you notice uncharged blades hit more frequently...or is that my imagination. Here's my fit that I used those rounds. Scout M/1 - Series 1x Complex Shield 1x Basic Shield 1x Enhanced Cardiac 1x Enhanced Kincat M209 Assault Submachine Gun ZN-28 Nova Knives M1 Locus Compact Hive As for Knife hit detection? Pardon the pun, but it's really just hit or miss for me. Those games, I had excellent detection. But I also stopped trying to knife people who are moving. Only people who were standing still, or moving very little (like the guy I jumped on as he reloaded, or those two slow waddling heavies)

Thinking you could trade that pinch of HP for a 400% faster patch up (w/complex repper) Hm. Was playing around with my Enhanced Reactive, and the 1 hp/s really isnt noticeable. (I only have lvl 3 in armor, and 1 in rep at the moment.) My logic with the complex is still sound. The MK.0 only has about 80 armor from the get go. I would gladly trade 5hp/s for 2hp/s if I can double my armor. It may take longer to rep, but I have compact hives if I need it in a hurry. It's supposed to work as an inverse with the standard Gallente suit. With a GK.0, you use the shields as a buffer, and rely on high armor to survive. Combine with repper's and the GK.0 can take solid damage and survive over time. With this suit, you use the shields as your main source of protection. However, with only 300 shields, you oftentimes go into your armor when the battle is close. Since you really shouldn't be taking huge amounts of armor damage, having only 153 armor and 2 rep a second is more than enough.

Let me know if I can clarify anything else. o7 - Shotty GoBang Thanks man, appreciate the reply. So its just total kills, as long as your a 51% or more scout? I see. I'm not sure what I qualify as. I wonder if CCP has stats for suit classes used. It's an honor system. So long as you consider yourself a scout (you run it as a majority), chances are you will get on the list.

In solo play I average around 1400 WP... mostly from a very aggressive installation hacking habit, dropping uplinks like a fiend and whipping out a swarm scout whenever I see a tank or two. I act as an autonomous unit in my squad, which typically consists of myself and two friends who run logistics fits. I rounded out the last battle with approximately 400 war points. Not because I sucked too terribly, though it was by no means my best play of all time, but because most things were killed, hacked or controlled efficiently and quickly and were defended well enough to keep them from being brought back to red. I was out-scouted. I hope one day to pull 23/0 or similarly outstanding matches as effortlessly as Shotty makes it seem. For now I will be content to go 12/6 and call it a good match. Maybe next time I squad with a dedicated scout group I will have a properly functioning mic and won't be at my girlfriend's place... having to hand over the controller before you're done is no fun. At least I can backseat hack while my girlfriend plays on her account. Thanks for the rounds, scouts! Playing with other scouts is a blast, and it really helps you see how important certain aspects of scouting are. Playing with Shotty made me realize that learning how to cook nades is paramount when playing as a scout. They are excellent ways to start an engagement with an enemy, as it will either kill them outright, or horridly wound them. It's really the only way to engage an opponent that knows you are there. Run around a corner, get some distance, cook the nade, then jump out and toss it at their feet. Playing with Lightning vXv showed me how to run a shotgun. You gotta know when it is okay to rush em, and when you should run away or flank. He knows when he can rush the target, which is why you see those huge killfeeds with him. He will see three people, and only one will see him. He sprints up and takes out the target that is aware of him, and then gets the other 2 afterwards. The list goes on and on.

Even now, having an ally with a needle is more detrimental that people AFK in the warbarge. lol KDR is a worthless stat. When you realize that it is faster to hit "start" and go to "commit suicide" is a faster way to traverse the map than a vehicle or running, your KDR drops fast. W/L ratio is another bad one. It may just be a good indicator of who AFK farms (lol GJ AFK solution, you've kicked me twice while sniping and twice while in the orbital screen, but you haven't done **** to stop me from AFK farming) Thought the +ö stats are welcomed, Shotty, it is not very helpful in determining skill level.

I really like the fast pace, the stealthy sneakiness and the adrenalin that comes with running with other scouts. So, I've been thinking about applying for R0N1N membership to increase the chances of getting into scout squads more. However, I'm not sure I'm a god match for R0N1N, and I hope some of the Scout Registry regulars might be able to pitch in with an opinion. I'm a full-time scout, as I have been since I started playing kind of early in open beta. I have proto Gallente scout suit, maxed out KinCats and maxed out scan range, level 3 profile dampening and a lot of focus on typical scout skills. About 16 mil SP in total. On the other hand, my primary weapon choice isn't very typical scoutly. I run the semi-auto ScR - have it up to Prof 4 - and use it a lot to flank and take out enemies with charged headshots, enjoying the relative safety the rifle's range provides (compared to, say, shotgun). I mainly use a Toxin SMG (prof 2) for close-up stuff, which also happen to a fair degree. I also use an advanced level active scanner quite a lot. I generally do pretty well these days with this setup and playstyle, rarely going negative KDR, often a ratio between 2 and 5, generally in the top 6 of the killboard. The impression I have of R0N1N, is that the focus is on training shotgun scouts. While I'd like to get good with the shotgun, I get so disgusted with the hit detection issues it's been having that I don't see myself using it much until the issues have been fixed. Also, I wouldn't want to drop my longer-range engagements to court a shotgun only playstyle. So: is my impression of R0N1N entirely wrong? Would I be a good fit for the corp? Scouts don't care about what weapon you use. So long as you slay, nobody will care As for joining scout squads, just try and que up in Scouts United during the day. I have no trouble finding those squads. On a lesser note, would be fun to play with ya. Hit me up if you wanna tear some stuff up Knife/SMG Minmatear Scout, ready for action

Here is my favorite part: This is what I said. Also, this video had nothing to do with my comment on your ego, and where on earth did I say the shotgun was fine? The only thing I said was that "Your ego is so large, I'm surprised it isn't as heavy as a shotgun." Also, dat aim. (Start your "The main problem with Dust514 Shotguns" and go to these times. Dang comment won't let me link web adresses. t=50s t=1m22s Also, you contradict this video in your previous one. Listen to yourself. t=3m40s Result? 5\10. Seen++ me after class. His response: I didn't contradict myself about anything. Most people don't use shotguns for the reason i say the shotgun is not balanced enough and not powerful enough. This proves you are wrong. Again i win more than you. In++ win at life and you don't. You hate me cause you want to be me. Remember you are on my channel, its not the other way around. You have a problem with your own ego, that is why you are stalking me.Nothing you said in your comments have made you look better and you haven't changed anything. Do you see why I get humor from this? Comment #2 Why are you trying to use a shotgun at 10m+? It's a Gallente Shotgun, which means it is supposed to be very high damage,n++ and VERY short range. The problem with the shotgun isn't the range, it's the Hit Detection problems. As for the weapon being heavier? Wouldn't affect most shotgun scouts, we generally sprint with our sidearm anyways. I personally think you should stick with your AR until you get some gun game. His response: Sprinting with your arms sideways means nothing when i kill shot-gunners more than they kill me. You are embarrassing yourself. You just shut down your own argument and you contradicted yourself here is why... You said the range of the Shotgun is not the problem, then you said the Hit detection is the problem whichn++ is a contraction, because the Hit Detection problem causes the gun to lack range. I made previous videos talking about the hit detection issues and the Shotgun is the problem. It lacks range because its a fckuing shotgun bro.

So yeah I'm skilling into amarr assault. I should have proto in 2 weeks I hope. The triple sp should get me to around lv3-4 :D ^ \| \| I'm not the only one unfortunately! ^ \| Once I get damage mods wrapped up, pistols to L5 operation (at L4), and remotes to L5 (L2).... There won't be a whole lot of stuff left which is appealing aside from that Minmatar medium frame suit.... You sir, are even more obstinate than I. I applaud you for sticking to the Minmatar suits. I'm doing the same with Gallente even though I want that Amarr Assault, but the Gallente suits are actually on a competitive level. I have ADV Min Basic frames. They kinda rule. I can run 300 shields, 170 armor, sprint at 8.5, with almost 300 stamina AND use a shotgun. You get scanned all the time, but it rules as an Upfront, in your face playstyle. "All war is deception."

I would stay away from the sidearm dmg mods, they won't do much for the knife, at least in my experience you die too quickly. I use sidearm damage mods for the SMG, and I find that the bonus actually helps the knives alot. You can tap shot almost anything outside of super tank heavies and med frames "All war is deception."

So to bring it back on topic, I'm skilling into gallente scout suits with 3x SP. Why? Cause I'm using a basic gallente rightn now with enhanced range amps, and I am loving the gameplay so far. Since I only have 700k SP into Minmatar, it's not that much of a waste. Besides, I think it might be a bit more up my playstyle, which involves flanking and surviving multiple engagements. I don't like to run away from fights, and I like knowing where the enemy is without a scanner. "All war is deception." "He who knows when he can fight and when he cannot, will be victorious" -Sun Tzu

No need to do that. Shotty keeps track of your total number of kills. Some People coughMaraudercough got their first 20k kills in a different suit all together. Every week, Shotty updates the front page, because he's awesome like that, to reflect your week's kills and any change in KDR. It's a good metric for how the Scout community is fairing, though not the best. That would be a nightmare to track only kills made in Scout suits/Light Frame. Especially for me, I've got 3 different assault suits, 3 different logi suits, and a Sentinel suit I get kills in. LMFAO I just realized Appia has Caldari-Assault, Gallente-Assault, & Amarr-Assault BPOs. Amarr-Logi BPO, skills in Gallente&Caldari Logi, and an Amarr Sentinel BPO. And skills in Gallente Scout. That really does a great job reflecting how worthless I think Minmatar suits are. 8213, to make the board you need to run a scout suit or light frame suit 51% of the time or more. To get on the first post you need more than 5000 kills total. Elsewise you are on post #7. I'm starting to feel an odd one out because I use scout suits pretty much exclusively in any situation, ambush, skirmish, domination, FW or PC. As far as I know I only have tens to a few hundred kills while not in a scout suits, and those are mostly vehicle road kills or the VERY rare times I pull out my militia logi suit. To be honest, very few go 100% scout. I keep myself in the 80-90% range. I run scout whenever possible, but if I find myself throwing myself against a brick wall, I bust out my Minmatar Assault. I see no reason in staying in the suit when I am not using it for it's built purpose. My assault suit is designed for open combat. My scout is not "All war is deception."

Now I have never used knives and don't plan to but I'm pretty psyched that all you guys now have your ninja-yness back :) and back to my pistol/SMG combo... On that note, started speccing up SMG sharpshooter but wondering if it's worth it and how far you have to take it to get a noticeable effect? I feel like I've pretty much reached the point where I've got all my skills where I need them and anything extra is just unnecessary extras. I won't be putting anything into biotic modules until I know speed tanking will ever be viable/useful. There's no point in ever going beyond level 2 in any equipment because I'll never have the CPU to be able to fit them. I've got my proto gal scout, lvl 5 prof pistol and lvl 4 prof SMG (will go lvl 5 one day...) and all my core skills where I want them. Not really sure where to go next. Maybe I'll max out my swarms if the adv is no longer at all effective in 1.7 but again probably won't be able to fit proto swarms anyway. Eh, I dunno, I'm just kinda rambling now - useful thoughts would be appreciated. Okay, proficiency is great on an SMG, but Sharpshooter will boost your dps even higher. Think of it this way. At rank 0 sharpshooter, you get a spray from the smg. Most bullets don't hit the target after about a second of firing. As sharpshooter increases, it turns that spray into a tight cone of death. You get tons of more bullets on target and your overall DPS increases dramatically. Get it up to lvl 3 a the least. At lvl 5, you can hipfire that thing like it's being ADS. Amazing.

In my opinion, all high RoF weapons (excluding the HMG) should have Aim Assist dialed back a 'bit. Gun Game doesn't matter otherwise. On a side note, I'm running a pistol today. Only at Operation II, so I haven't unlocked the goodies yet, but ... HOLY COW THIS THING IS AWESOME! It fits better with shotgun fits as well. The TTK with the pistol is very fast giving the enemy less chance to try to kill you. Headshots are insane. Sometimes when I'm running my shotgun I completely forget I actually have the shotgun and just mow people down with my TT-3. The small clip really forces you to engage and run away in an incredibly short amount of time due to having to reload. With the SMG it takes like half a second to a second longer to kill someone and you have to keep your sights on them longer which gives them much longer to kill you. It's awesome for super tanked logi's and heavies because you can peck at them, take cover, reload, then run in again within a few seconds. :D In my opinion the scrambler pistol might be the best side arm next to knives. With our low HP that insane alpha can't be beat. Yeah, it is INSANE in 1v1's. With a 10 round clip, you can tear through 2 med frames and survive if you have good accuracy. Run it with an Assault sub. It makes for an excellent backup. One is made for 1v1's, the other has the ammo and damage to engage multiple opponents. "All war is deception."

My Viziam scrambler pistol probably has the same TTK as your NKs, only my optimal range ends at 25 meters. I can still count on 1 hand the number of times I've been killed by Nova Knives outside 1v1 knife fights. Your proto Scout with proto knives aren't going to be killing my Dragonfly Assault with Toxin AR + Toxin SMG or my Templar suits. And god luck on getting me with those in a suit I'm actually skilled into. Knives have the highest potential alpha on a Minnie scout. While they lack range they make up in insane damage. Why would I be knifing a scout who isn't using knives themselves anyway? Sorry but I'm not dumb. Knives are the ultimate alpha damage tool. If you manage to sneak up on someone, they are DEAD before they can react. No stream of bullets to alert them to the fact that they are in danger, just a swift slash and the death screen.

Reason 2: I'm getting super pissed off by the game the last two days. I literally almost threw my controller against the wall. For the record, I have only thrown my controller once in all my years of FPS gaming, and that was playing this game. 700+ hours of BF3, and I didn't feel like throwing it even once. FFS, the last two days, I have only been able to get good scores by being suicidal and driving my death count up. Two games this week were I got 30 kills at the cost of 20 odd deaths. The proto stompers are out in full force, and I have had difficulty finding a good squad to play with. So I was forced to solo or play with randoms. All in all, not a very good few days, so I'm taking a break. I think I'll just play a bunch of Tales of Xillia and Fallout: New Vegas until 1.7 drops. If 1.7 sucks and the CR sucks, I'm gonna aurum reset my character, put all of my AUR into passive boosters, pre-order Destiny, and wait until they freaking fix this game. "All war is deception."

Patch Notes should be very soon and I know the number of you scouts are probably not going to appreciate it as fully as the generic player base would. As for the planned buffs for scouts its going to be dropping in conjunction with another planned features (plural) which such I cannot comment upon. I have talked to CCP Wolfman and he's in full agreement that of all the frames the scouts need the most hugs now and he's planning it but he and his team has so many things to get done and not enough time or people for it all. You heard it first here guys. WE HAVE BEEN PUSHED BACK AGAIN. You guys do realize that you are creating a niche of supersoldiers right? Most of us play fairly well with a suit that is absolute crap on paper, and the only way we pull it off is through sheer practice, skill, and optimization. The moment you guys fix the suit and make it decent, I GUARANTEE you that The General Discussion will be whining about the scouts. And you know what? I can't wait for that moment. I'll put it bluntly. If scouts don't get fixed by the time Destiny drops (or even the beta, as I will be pre-ordering), I'm gone. I'll ditch this game, AUR reset my character, put all of my AUR (Which is approximately 300k) into passive boosters and just play destiny till this game becomes worth my time again.

I fell in love with the idea of the game, and wanted to show my support, so I put money into it. It's just the fact that the suit I chose in 1.1 would prove to be a horrendously under-powered role that has every job it does done better by other suits. I can't respec the suit, so I just get to "Live with my mistake" and wait until the suit becomes decent. I built my entire playstyle around the Minmatar Scout, only to realize at 8mil SP that it would never really be better than a watered down assault with it's only benefit being an amazing dampening system. It's been long and trying, and even though I love the suit, my competitive side hates seeing me be gunned down by people when I have both a tactical advantage and better aim. They just laugh in my face (metaphorically) and spray AR in my general direction. TL;DR Yeah, scout needs fixed bad.

I LOVE the flaylock, but I can never justify using it. SMG does the same damage in CQC, has more range, and is a more flexible weapon overall. I really wanna use my flaylocks..... How about this: (MASSIVE CHANGE) Make it have a 6 round clip, like the ScP. Bonus to Ops skill is 3% blast radius increase. Give it around 75 Splash, with a 1.5m Radius at basic. ROF is faster (but not ungodly) You now have a sidearm that is made to quickly kill 1-2 targets in CQC in Minmatar fashion (Rapid fire and explosions). For clarity: Basic FP: 150 direct, 75 splash, 1.5m (1.72 with skill 5) ADV FP: 165 direct, 85 splash, 1.75m (1.9 with skill 3) PRO FP: 180 Direct, 100 Splash, 2.0m (2.3 with skill 5) This will make it a powerful weapon if you can directly hit targets (difficult to do) but still able to take down a target by hitting the ground if you have to (PRO has 600 splash in clip at proto) Feel free to change these or debate these. Let's try and fix the Flaylock guys! EDIT: I love this idea myself, but I also just realized that you get an 8 round clip with the Minmatar Assault. Minmatar Faction Warfare: Let's get Organized

I still run it from time to time, just for fun ... but it doesn't really keep up with the other sidearms, in my book. But would this make it competitive? I want it to be like the ScP, which can easily take on targets in CQC, but it's main drawback is the inability to take on multiple targets (3-4) and it's lack of overall ammunition. Think about it, with these changes, it would become a mini mass driver that you carry in your pocket. Mind you, it still would be nothing like the Mass driver, due to it's reduced Splash and Damage. You won't see people fluxing and taking down groups of targets (maybe if they cluster super tight though). You will see people quickly direct shotting people who aren't paying attention (or just having good aim) or using it to splash targets behind cover or those who strafe a lot. It would be flexible, it would be powerful. It will be balanced due to it's inability to take on more than 2 targets in a clip and it's lack of overall ammunition, making it a compliment to your weapon slot, and not a niche weapon like it is now.

In the future, I'd humbly request that you take a poll (at minimum) prior to positing on behalf of the majority. Thank you. Its not that it was met with disagreement, it was the fact that there was no decorum in the discussion. I can disagree with the light weapon idea without calling it a dumb/stupid idea, which is why the discussion went south. Hence I popped in to organize the pro side as to focus it back on the merits or lack of them not because I agreed with it but that it didn't exactly get a fair shot. Name calling also doesn't fly either but I see that flew under the radar of acceptable actions, and we shouldn't have to do a poll just to share an opinion (even if its wrong/unpopular) on how something could function, that's some pretty crazy 1984 stuff right there.

In short I don't understand why my political forums that I frequent have more decorum, patience, and thoroughness than a game forum where people are just talking about trivial matters.

As grim gear put it: "Because DUST". The point is, the shotgun is already capable of doing.. what, 750? 800? instant damage. instant, mind you. To offset that, requires some serious limitations, for game balance. Range limit, and "must get headshot for full damage", seem reasonable in that reguard, to me. As it is, a single body shot will still kill MOST enemies, I think? ("most" defined as 50.1%), and if you're semi-decent, with a specialist shotgun, you should be able to land at least two shots. That being said, if you can't get a headshot when you're up as close as 4 meters.... seems like you need to "git gud" if I can do it 50% of the time.. and I'm NOT a regular shotgun player.... then seems like regular shotgun players should be able to do better. If you want "guaranteed instakill anywhere on the body, any dropsuit".... we already have a weapon for that. It's called a plasma cannon? But of course, since it has even greater damage, it has greater limitations. That's fairly reasonable game balance. Once again, YOU ARE MISSING THE POINT. I can get a headshot with a shotgun, but why the hell should I HAVE to get a headshot to OHK people? ADV tier shotguns are perfect. 1-2 shot most other ADV fits with no problems at all. PRO tier shotguns are jokes. The damage increase is not enough to keep up with the MASSIVE eHP boost Med frames get at Proto. I should not be wasting 2-3 shots per target to kill a Proto Med Frame with PRO shotgun. Breaches are even worse. I've been running the ADV Breach with Enhanced Damage mods, and I STILL have to waste 2 shots (My entire clip) to kill a tanked Med frame. As for the PLC? That's only good for one target. Have fun ripping through a squad of Protos with it. Also, sniper rifles SHOULD kill any Med Frame in a single headshot. It's a freaking sniper rifle. I am aware of the fact that Dust514 has some of the most F'ed up FPS logic I have EVER seen, but that is still no excuse for shafting the specialty weapons. Shotguns are specialty weapons, meant to kill multiple targets in CQC. Snipers rifles are made to kill targets with one precise shot to the head. The fact that these are not working as they should is BULL. Don't try to feed me some "balance" crap. It's made to kill in CQC, where most other weapons are ineffective. If I get within 4 meters of you, with a shotgun, there is no reason why a device that requires a pneumatic armature to absorb recoil shouldn't punch holes the size of basketballs through any merc foolish enough to let me get that close. In DUST reality though, you would be better off grabbing an AR and just strafing at point blank. Roughly same effect, and you can even use it at range. EDIT: As for the breach problem: You do realize that 2 rounds IS THE ENTIRE CLIP RIGHT? Couple that with a terrible reload time, and you got a weapon that you do NOT want to bring to the fast and furious frenzy that is CQC. Breach needs a damage boost and to have a 4 round clip. Also, I love how you assume that since I am complaining about it's inability to OHK or 2HK targets means I can't aim. Please. My argument is mainly focused on the PRO tier. A PRO shotgun should have the same effect on a PRO suit, as the ADV shotgun has on ADV suits. Minmatar Faction Warfare: Let's get Organized

It's just a different play style. I personally like having to evolve my tactics and understand my limitations to work within a specific situation as opposed to having multiple range options to choose from. It simplifies a lot of situations. Maybe tactically it's not always the best choice, but a lot of times it can be way more effective. Why? Well, one needs to get close, so the first and only question to be answered in a tactical situation is "how". Instead of wasting time on multiple questions prior to acting, such as "what weapon should I use in this situation?" "where do I need to be to be most effective with it?" and then, "how do I get there?" I understand where you are coming from, but I still stand by what I said. There will be situations where you will want another weapon, and since you have an extra slot, there is no reason why you can't run a basic sidearm, like a basic ScP. It's great for finding out the limitations of a lot of weapons though. You quickly learn what you can or cannot do with that weapon. Minmatar Faction Warfare: Let's get Organized

THIS. @ Quil Jumps on soapbox Think of it this way. If you tell your professor he is wrong, he will most likely disregard your argument. He will trust his experience over your input. If you tell your professor he is wrong, why he is wrong in detail, and provide proof showing that he is wrong, chances are that professor will look at the data and agree with you. Data trumps experience every time. While I hate the blatant Elitism that this game creates, it does have it's purpose. The "Professor" analogy I just used does in fact apply to the Veteran Scouts, as much as I hate to say it. People who have been here longer typically have a much better insight into the game than newcomers. Experience is valuable here, and while (as I said) I HATE Elitism, you really should respect it. That doesn't mean that we are never wrong. But it does mean that most vet's opinions and arguments are not unfounded. Please note that I am trying very hard to not sound like some super elitist prik here. It's hard to describe what I am trying to say, and I really hope it gets through. SIGH In short, it's okay to disagree with the Vet's here. In fact, I encourage it. But don't do it by disregarding what we are saying. You can disagree with someone respectfully, it just takes some humility. Jumps off soapbox God, I hate doing that. I always feel like a douche afterwards. Gonna end this with a tip for everyone for the forums that I find helpful. Tip for the forums: If someone says something that you disagree with, don't try and tell them that you are right and they are wrong. Ask them to prove their information. If they can't, it means that they are only using personal experience or that they honestly have no idea what they are talking about. This saves you from many pointless arguments. If they can't prove what they are saying, don't even bother with them.

While Passive Scan and CQC just go so well together. Long Range + Speed are for Minmatar and Caldari. Yup. Shield tanks require a very different mindset. Due to the lack of passive regen, you must always move cover to cover. Absorb damage, and let your shields regen. You excel at mid-long range engagements with plenty of cover. Abuse that regen! I did the math awhile ago, and a regen tanked shield suit recovers HP at almost twice the rate of an armor tank. I think my Minmatar Assault fully regen'd in about 13 seconds, while the armor tank took almost 26 (mostly his shields recharging. The armor actually finished repping in about 21, but since I was trying to find out how long it took both suits to recover from X damage, you had to include the shield regen as well.)

You can only run so far, so if you must run don't have escape being the only idea (unless there is a horde chasing you). Set traps, and draw out the engagement.

The next guy will take the corner wide, so don't even bother getting him. Terminate the body and disappear. Keep tabs on him. He will check around, and then most likely go back the way he came. Be there ready with a surprise This becomes harder and harder to do when there are more people around. Groups of 3+ are the hardest to whittle down, as you will constantly have to think of new tactics (those buggers learn quickly). If you know they are rez happy, camp the body of the first target. Be ready with a grenade or RE. Remember, you must ALWAYS be the hunter. A scout must tweak his circumstances to put him in the hunting position, for this is where he has the advantage. You can only run so far, so if you must run don't have escape being the only idea (unless there is a horde chasing you). Set traps, and draw out the engagement. This is why scouts love city maps, as it gives them places with multiple objectives and cover and concealment to wreak massive havoc. The whole point of my post was to advocate the Active Scanner as a taunting instrument. To demonstrate that the enemy knowing you're nearby isn't always a bad thing.

Shutter Fly wrote: Those posts don't constitute giving actual numbers, the second one is even a "this one time..." type argument, which is arbitrary and is completely useless in a legitimate presentation of an argument. Ghost and Shotty both gave valid opposition to your points, and you did not provide a proper rebuttal. This means that you cannot say they are incorrect without a proper response that addresses the their counterpoints. What data based counterpoints did I miss? The only replies I saw were along the lines of, "your data pales in comparison to the Awsum Powah of our Experience!!!1111" Here's a more concise summary of my completely ignored data points (which were given in the postsyou claim have no numbers in them??) I estimated that a decent shotgun should be able to do 750-800 HP damage on a headshot. (Yes, there is a headshot bonus for shotguns) I didnt see one person claim that number was incorrect. Related Point : It should therefore be possible to kill even most heavies, in two shots, if you're good (ie: can hit head reliably). Less good, and you should be able to kill it in 3 every time, if you can at least manage to sneak up on a heavy, and line up the initial shot as a headshot. Performance based point: Since a shotgun newb like me can get 1/3 of my kills with headshots... after not even running shotgun for a month ('cause when I was using it more, I got headshots more often!)... "the pros" should be able to do it even more consistently. I didnt see any factual counterpoint to any of those. All I saw was posts to the tune of ("we dont need to respond to your inconvenient data, because we're the shotgun pros and we say shotgun needs to be buffed, go away newb") Yet I'm the one being badgered about not sticking to using hard facts? I'll count the numbers for you. 16. Six of them can be ignored. 750, and 800 have no math to back up your estimate. We don't even know how you got these numbers. 3 Numbers are from 50.1%. Somewhat legitamate. "Most suits" don't run upwards of 700 eHP. But then again, we don't even know if the shotgun does 750 or 800 damage on a headshot. No math. 1 Number from 4 meters. I see nothing wrong. 2 Numbers are from 50%. Excellent. WE HAVE PROOF. Wait. 13/4 is 3.25. . How did you arrive at this number again? 2 Numbers from 80k. Sufficient. Everyone knows proto costs way more than 80k. 2 numbers are used in place of typing out "two" and "one" The only "data" you have is an estimate, AN ESTIMATE. WITH NO MATH TO SHOW HOW YOU ARRIVED THERE. SHOW YOUR WORK DAMIT! LIKE THIS: (THIS IS AN EXAMPLE, DATA IS NOT CORRECT) Okay, the PRO shotgun deals 44 damage a pellet. Due to the fact that it fires 8 pellets, it should deal roughly 352 damage on a normal target. The headshot bonus is 142%, so this brings total damage per headshot up to 499.84 damage. Since the heavy runs a base eHP of 1200 with it's core skills maxed, this means that it will take 3 headshots with a shotgun to kill a standard heavy. Here is an even better example. Quantitative data. Quantitative data everywhere. However, Appia needs to work on presentation. That thing is a mess to read As for the related argument: I'm okay with heavies taking three shots to kill. It's a freaking heavy. As for performance argument? Krom Ganesh summed it up pretty well. Krom Ganesh wrote:* And going for headshots with spread weapon is ridiculous. Center mass should always be a shotgunner's target and encouraging otherwise with bad mechanics is silly. Reduce headshot multiplier so that it only gives a slight damage increase. Even though I disagree with his solutions, this argument is spot on. Get over it.

EEesh. Edit: I had just written up long gory details, but I notice that Appia posted after you did, and confirmed that my numbers were correct all along. So no need to be redundant for that. So, similarly, I was correct when I stated that it takes only TWO HEADSHOTS to take out a heavy. You wanna acknowlege that finally now, and help put an end to the "Quil just makes up stuff" trash talk about me? To avoid making this post longer than it needs to, while not having you feel i'm ignoring the rest of your post, I will just mention that I did already respond to Krom's argument about bodyshots vs head that you referenced, back at the time. But rehashing that isnt important to me. Putting an end to the unfair slagging of me, is. For future reference: I'm a computer programmer. I dont just make junk up. When it comes to numbers and facts, you'd be hard pressed to find someone more picky than me about accuracy of numbers. If you have the numbers and facts, then put them in the post. Easy fix. As I said, the only confirmation we had for the data was when Appia went and confirmed it. We shouldn't be proving your data for you. This whole spiel is getting really out of hand. I am not trying to "slag" you. I just want you to realize that most vets have a "right until proven wrong" mindset. We are going to believe what we already know until proven wrong. As for the Headshots deal. I still stand by what I said eariler. You shouldn't balance a spreads weapon around it's ability to get headshots. Yes, it only takes two headshots to kill a normal heavy. However, while the data on paper shows it, we still need experimental data. Have a heavy stand still and shoot him in the head. Do the same from behind. Consider the difficulty of doing this while both parties are moving. Test that as well. I guess what I am trying to say is this: Be Thorough You have data, but no work to show for it. You have solid ideas, but no experiments backing it up. If you go and flesh out your data and hypothesis, you will have an excellent argument on your hands. Go out and do it. Prove us wrong. You must still realize though, at the end of the day, these are all just opinions. You can have math to back it up, but the core of this argument is that shotgun damage is fine, you just have to get headshots. You no longer are relying on the data on paper, but the ability to execute a strategy on a chaotic battlefield. Some strats are great on paper, but terrible in practice. In my opinion, the shotgun is not a "skill" based weapon (like the sniper rifle or flaylock, which require headshots or body shots to deal the intended damage), and thus, it should not be balanced around it's ability to OHK targets purely on headshots. It's a bloody shotgun, and the "skill" required to use it shouldn't be marksman based, it should be position based. That is why I want to keep it's terrible range, but buff the damage. If I get close, you should be dead. Don't let me get close. And to end this post: Please don't assume that I am personally attacking you. I try to treat everyone fairly to the best of my ability, and I don't feel at all like I am attacking you on a personal level. I still don't believe I have ever said that you are making data up, I just said that we can't prove the data. I did say that I thought you were trolling us, but that was because I honestly couldn't believe that you thought it was a great idea.

(skipping the heavy bit, to focus on the "easier" bit)... you already should be able to OHK many medium frames... unless they're layering on the armor/shields. At which point, the DUST type thing to do, is require you to add modules to counter. Which you can do. 2xcomplex damage mods? Using slightly fuzzy math, shouldnt that give you around 600 damage? Which should mostly do the job? Thats the limit for adv scouts... if you want more damage out of it, you need to go to assault with 3 high slots, for 3 damage mods. Wouldnt that do the job, and also mesh with your "same tier" feelings? It's also suit-appropriate. scouts arent supposed to be the high-damage suit; assaults are supposed to be that. and a cross post at mollerz' heavy-spam-related post: Well, start practicin' up your headshots Refer back to appia's post. Right now, the ADV shotgun is good enough to OHK a vast majority of ADV suits. I have no problem taking on advanced suits. Most drop in 1 shot. Some require 2. However, the PRO version is far from the truth. It requires 2 shots to take out other Med Frames of the same tier. This is why I want the damage buff. Besides, I think it's an even worse idea to balance weapons based on the ability to use damage mods. You would be forcing people to give up slots just to use a weapon the way it was meant to be. If it were up to me, Damage mods would go away completely, proficiency as well. How can you balance weapons when some people will always do more damage than others? As for the scout's being a high damage suit. The Min Scout is supposed to be a glass cannon, fitting with it's "assassin" role. Glass cannons should have among the highest DPS in the game, as their goal is to kill a target before it can react or deal significant damage back. An inability to do so destroys the purpose of losing HP and staying power. However, CCP has no freaking clue what they want scouts to do, so that argument can wait until CCP makes up it's dang mind.

Introduction: Grief PK and I conducted a simple experiment today in hopes of establishing a benchmark overspray value. In essence, we compared how much damage a shotgun could do vs how much it actually did at 5 meters. Any replicable difference between maximum damage and actual damage (at 100% efficiency range) can be explained by missed pellets, or so we propose. Hypothesis (Accepted): Overspray exists at 5 meters; 100% damage will not be dealt 100% efficiency. Ancillary Observations: A) The optimal range of a Standard Shotgun (~5 meters) matches that of an Advanced Shotgun (~5 meters). At this range, the Advanced Shotgun deals damage at little to no variability, which cannot be said for the Standard. The CRG dealt a precise total of 441 damage, 5 times in a row. In exactly the same setting, the Dren dealt an average of 425 total damage (ranging from 387 to 457, with a standard deviation of 26.91) over 10 shots. B) We observed more damage variability when firing at a Scout Frame than when firing at an Assault Frame. More likely than not, the Scout's smaller hitbox means that one pellet will miss him (at 5 meters). C) Efficiency appears to by -20% versus armor. Efficiency readings drop into the 80s when a target is in Armor.

That's a nice set of data you got there. I threw in an extra column for clarity. Haha! I love it! I was just about to calculate the sDev when I noticed you had already done it! So does this mean that the lower tier shotguns have more spread than the higher tier? Also, you tested this with maxed out skills right? How would this work for someone with lower shotgun skills (the skill reduces spread). Also, can I request a follow up with a test of the breach? As we know, the breach has a much tighter spread. How much of a difference does this make? Does this mean that the Breach could be BETTER than a standard shotgun at ranges of 5-10m, instead of 0-5? This data opens up a lot of questions.

Amarr - Tanky Caldari - Shield Brawler Gallente - Armor Brawler Minmatar - Speed Deamon Close. My take on this: Amarr: Hunter. Focus on Stamina and staying power. With an already very high stamina, and decent speed and health, the amarr scout should be the typical hunter. Taking on groups of targets, it focuses on eliminating them one at a time. Scramblers synergize well with this, due to their high alpha nature and cooldown. You can use stealth to quickly down a target, and then continue to stalk a group. High Stamina means that in the long run, nobody can escape you. Higher than average eHP makes you difficult to kill 1v1. You are nowhere near as mobile as the other scouts, but you gain something the other scouts don't have, and that's the staying power to engage groups at mid range for extended periods of time. Other scouts will have to fall back when the heat turns up, but the Amarr hunter should be able to weather more heat, and proceed to whittle down the enemy. Caldari: Disruptor. Focus on eWar and long range disruption. With high shields, regen, and bonuses to rail weapons, the Cal scout should be excellent at disrupting enemy operations. Snipers will be able to set up shop, and use their shields to quickly recover from damage while re positioning themselves for another long range attack. Rail Rifle users can utilize their speed and mobility to harrass groups of targets from a distance, making sure that nobody can deal enough damage at range to kill them before they duck behind cover for regen. Hit and run from a distance. Less deadly, but more annoying. Gallente: Infiltrator. Focus on stealth and observation. Made to get behind enemy lines, and stay there for long periods of time, tracking down targets and causing their own mayhem by hacking objectives and harassing targets. They should be very good at surviving long periods of time behind enemy lines. Minmatar: Glass Cannon. Focus on speed and damage. You use either your passive stealth (or a cloak) to quickly traverse the battlefield. You quickly flank a target, and deal as much damage as humanly possible in as short an amount of time as possible. Knives are used to dispatch lone targets in one shot. ACR's or SMG's are use to quickly shred through 2-3 targets. Once the hit is complete, you can use your cloak and speed to quickly run and hide before attracting too much attention. They are hit and run from point blank. More risky, but deadly. I still want to keep the Scout class bonus to be dampening, but they also need to lower it to a 30dB base instead of 45. This is the only way to keep up with the Gal-Logi scans. If you hate doing dual bonuses, then just go and make the scouts profile 20 dB base. We need to avoid scanners. That is really the core of the class. We also will need the fitting reduction for cloaks. We can't run it otherwise. I think that the best solution is to keep the bonus to fitting reduction, and to make the base dB for scouts 20 so that they can passively avoid all scanners except for the focused. If we absolutely have to avoid it, when can use modules for it (except the modules would have to be changed in %'s. 25% reduction at proto will not be enough. Make them reduce dB by a set number, such as -10 or so. %'s don't benefit lower numbers as much as they do higher numbers.) Just my 0.02 ISk on the matter. Get over it.

As much fun as it is, you can't make a viable role with just assassination in a game with immortal clones.The assassination has to serve a purpose other than just reducing the enemy's clone count by one. Also, they shouldn't be taking on multiple enemies. That's the job of the suits designed for more direct combat. If this was part of the min's job description, there would be too much overlap with the assaults, sentinels, and commandos. Giving them a hacking bonus and speed bonus allows them to quickly dart around the map and frustrate the enemy to no end. Also, 20 or 30 db is too low. While the scout should be able to avoid nearly all scanners there must be some give and take. You do realize that a Gal Logi ADV scanner scans at 29 dB. Proto goes all the way down to 21. If we don't get a class bonus to it, we need 20dB to avoid a proto scanner. If we keep it, we still need 30dB, as this lets a max investment scout avoid a proto scanner. 30.9.75 = 20.25 Get over it.

Like I said, there would be too much overlap between the min scout and assaults. I'm not saying you shouldn't be able to kill though. I am saying the intent of the min scout should be to cause chaos through a variety of actions including killing and hacking (vehicles, objectives, crus, uplinks, etc.). The scout class shouldn't be a direct fighter's class. It should operate using fear, paranoia, confusion, etc. However, think of it this way. Bonuses in speed and hacking will allow you to be more aggressive and even control the battlefield. Your speed bonuses would give you the ability to pop in, take out a red in a group, and then lead his friends on a merry chase as you circle around and stab them in the back (literally or metaphorically, your choice). Your hacking bonuses would let you draw enemies or isolate them. No reds in your playground? Hack their objective to send them charging towards it like a raging bull. Want to prevent that red from having backup as you examine his innards? Hack the cru so no one hears him scream. While it is not a true glass canon, the min scout should be the most aggressive class of them all. I do this already. I never hack unless nobody is around, and quite frankly 7.5 seconds to hack is fast enough for me. I don't have the slots to fit a codebreaker, and using a codebreaker on top of the passive and class bonuses is what made the logi shine anyways. On my lvl 3 logi, I use a single complex codebreaker, and I hack in about 5 seconds. I don't want to have to waste a low slot for it to truly shine. As for the overlap between scout and assault. There wouldn't be much of one. The assault can't move as fast as my scout, even with kincats (my current assault sprints at 8.4 with enhanced kincats). While he is fast, he has no stamina, and is easy to scan. He doesn't really flank too much. He is more of a rapid attacker, using his speed to quickly move from cover to cover, and to quickly move into positions to lock down targets. In short, he is flanker, but works more on angles, and ALWAYS from the front. The Min Scout would be different. He would focus on flanking from behind, and using his stealth to OHK troublesome targets (such as a target in a good strategic position, that is pinning down our squad). He would focus on quickly hitting groups from behind, weakening them, and then running away. They would have to spend extra time worrying about their flank and dropped buddies, and this gives the front line an excellent chance to push up. Creating the scenarios where my Min Assault will excel (quickly moving during the ambush, and setting up in a spot to flank the target from the side.) While both are similar, they would still be different enough to have their own niches. Scouts would truly be a hit and run. You can't hang around combat, and you can't assault from the front. Assaults would almost be like a Rapid Response, using their speed and extra health to move under enemy fire, in an attempt to flank and pin down the enemy (or at least to force them to have to open multiple fire lanes, creating gaps for pushes) In short, leave the hacking alone. The suit best suited to hacking is the Gallente, since they have both the low slots to fit the modules and the best suit for infiltration. They can quickly hack targets, and use their passive scanning to detect enemy troops. They can avoid objectives that have people on them without alerting the enemy, and can even bail if they see people moving in during a hack (that passive bonus comes in handy). Once again, just my take on the matter. Get over it. If you don't play to win in FW, then you're playing for Caldari. -Patrick57 Minmatar. In Rust we trust.

Getting into nests is still very hard to do with all guns pointed in your general direction with no flankable option. I surely do not jest, a good scout can raptor a squad to death currently this tool would help them a bit. Depends on the sniper first being the corner sniper where you cannot flank said sniper for his sniper alley is the same as the only ways to get to him. The second of which is the recon snipers the ones that don't hug their scopes all the time and only pick off targets of oppertunity. Red reticule hunting is needle in the haystack. You would know if you got hit with the worst of the render bug. Hunters are creatures who thrive on creatures of habbit, those that constantly call and recall their tanks or always call their tanks in one spot of the map are most prone to being victims. FW has taught many this. It can be easily a problem on the smaller maps, also the cloak would save travel time by not having to take the massively long route. Hence the better use as a mobility tool and not a weapon. What comments, some of your own statements makes me think poorly of your own abilities. I may not be a dedicated sniper or scout but I am an Omni Soldier which does require to know how best to skin everything and inversely how to avoid getting skinned.

I also wanted to create a small "Challenge" for us scouts in scouts united. It's simple. Play the event as usual. The goal is to get as many knife kills as possible. When the event is over, take a picture or record the amount of suits you get. We will post it on the forums (I'm going to reserve the thread in a bit, so it's already up. I will also extend this to other players), and have a Ranking board for how we did. Novice Shinobi: 25 kills Apprentice Shinobi: 50 Kills Adept Shinobi: 100 Kills Expert Shinobi: 150 Kills Master Shinobi: 200 Kills No isk (unless I can convince Jadek to give out tickets for the tiers), but all bragging rights.

"Where did this hurricane of razor blades come from?" The best part was all six of us chasing down one guy. The panic. Oh my god the panic. He backpedalled, sprayed his gun, his sidearm, chucked grenades, and tried to hop away. We all just kept running in between cover and closing the distance.

If you watched the vid linked above you can see how I switch targets on the fly to the situation. In a group of reds you have to choose which one is the most likely to die as well as the next target. It's like a game of pool, you really have to know your next move before you make the shot. I have been playing this game constantly since February. I have been knifed maybe three times (once in the last week or so). Melee got me once. I have died over 6000 times. Seriously, who here is dying to NKs enough to warrant their existence in game play? Very few players run them more than a rounds or two to test them out. They require a paradigm shift in gameplay versus that of your standard AR user, and aren't a good for four most players. With that being said, players that excel in their use do exist... I expect you will be participating in the events? What time do you play and which gamemode? Knives are easy to explain, yet hard to master. You just have to know when to use em, and when not to (Moody had it PERFECT in his video). This only comes from experience. Most people who get a kill with knives, don't even have them out 2 seconds before the kill. We see the opportunity, switch weapons, and quickly get the kill. Get over it.

Just because it doesn't kill you often, doesn't mean it's useless. So, how do you use the flaylock? Finisher. Pure and simple. I run an ACR on most fits, so I am almost always in range to use it effectively. speed is important too, as you have to have good positioning to deal the correct damage. I have Pro 3 with it, and use the ADV variant on most suits. Core goes on my Proto fit. It doesn't do any damage to shield suits, so don't even try. However, it will TEAR armor suits to SHREDS. Right now, my ADV flaylock does roughly 230 splash damage to armor. That's almost 700 armor damage in a clip. Enough to destroy any armor tank I catch with it's shields down. Direct shots are insane, and can drop even the toughest heavy. I can't count the amount of times me and a target have both torn though our primaries and switched to secondaries. This is where I win the fight. My alpha damage faaar excceds his. It's nowhere near as useful as an SMG or Pistol in all scenario's but there are times where the flaylock is just the perfect weapon for the job. I get a lot of those times for some reason, so I run it as my sidearm. Get over it. If you don't play to win in FW, then you're playing for Caldari. -Patrick57 Minmatar. In Rust we trust.

I'm not a full time scout you know We say no to knives n' shotgun combo because of range limitations. Just choose a weapon that is still viable at CQC, but also has range. I run ACR and Knives. Very good mix. Excellent CQC abilities, and the ACR still tears people up at range. Versatility is king. Assault SMG is also usable. Better for maps where range isn't really an issue.

Yeah, somehow ... lots of other suits have had a nice turn being OP, but there's a real fear of the scouts getting any sort of actual buff. Strange, ain't it..?

Ghost Kaisar Titans of Phoenix Legacy Rising 1990	Posted - 2014.01.17 06:08:00 - [428] - Quote So, I made Flako a bit mad today, and I want some feedback on this. In short, I was playing against Flako, a buddy of his from uptown, and Nyra Volki. So, we go all Scout out, and have our knives out. However, we also all have our primaries ready to go because of all the Med Frames (I had my ACR, Flako had an AR I think and I think Nyra went SMG). Anyways, I pretty much went on tear that round. I had like 16-20 Knife kills that round, not excluding my ACR which was used whenever another scout approached me with something other than a knife, and for any poor red dots. So, I have a great round, and shoot a GG to Flako and Nyra. I was surprised at the hate I got back from this. Now, I can understand someone getting mad about GG when the game wasn't even close at all. However, the game was actually REALLY close, and came down to almost 50 clones before we won (on our side) compared to their 30. But that wasn't why he was angry. Apparently, I was a little B** for not taking them on head on. I knifed Flako twice that match, and both times was when I snuck up and stabbed him while he was letting some poor fool have a taste of his AR. Yes, you heard me. I did not rush in there and take them on head on. Apparently that is what "Real Nova Knifers" do. So, I shoot back in the chat channel a very simple question. "WHY THE HELL WOULD I FIGHT YOU HEAD ON?" If flanking and knowing what fights I should run away from makes me a b, then I will gladly stay one. I just have no idea why someone would get so mad at refusing to fight a battle where I would be at a clear disadvantage. That's just not smart tactics. TL;DR Flako called me a b for refusing to fight his squad head on. I reply asking why the hell I should fight people head on in a scout suit. Am I a b? Or is Flako just angry at getting knifed two or three times in a match. Help me out here, cause I feel like I have done nothing wrong here. Nothing says "FK YOU!" like a direct Flaylock to the face.

It's a Google Doc from Haerr that lists what modules you will need to fit to dodge scanners. FOR THE LAZY: Gal scout will dodge all normal scanners and all but Proto Gal scans PASSIVELY. All other scouts will dodge all but Proto Normal Scans, and Adv Gal scans Passively. With one complex damp, you can dodge all scans but Proto Gal With one Complex + 1 Basic, you can dodge all scans barring Proto Focused (which you will never beat unless you are amarr) LAZY STUFF OVER: I am fine with this. If Proto Gal scans become a problem, I can slap on 2 dampeners and dodge them if need be. One complex will probably be enough anyways, since why would Gal Logis need to run Proto Scanners when an ADV scanner will pick up everything but really dampened scouts? I have a feeling that they will want to cut fitting costs. Also, Gal Scouts. You have a new role. It's called KILL THE GAL LOGI. If we are in a squad, we can actually use another scout as bait. Let him be scanned, and then draw them into a Gal Scout ambush. They won't see it coming Seems like Cal Scouts will be anti-scout scouts. Good. I like it. Amarr looks like a a tough, slower scout. I have a feeling it will be the best shotgunner (due to it's increase bulk and massive stamina. Lets you ignore green pills, slap on a Red, and then tank tank tank. Minmatar Scout looks like a great utility scout! Good anti-infantry capabilities and possibly the best hacker in the game now (due to how the bonuses are calculated, you can get some insane hack speed passively. 1.11.25= 1.375 base. Apply one complex codebreaker. 1.3751.25= 1.718x hack speed. That's insane. With one complex breaker, you can hack in almost 5 seconds.) I like this. I don't see scouts being OP, but they will be powerful in their roles, which is all I ever wanted. 1.8 can't come soon enough. Now I am going to go back to the skill planner and decide how I will spend my SP now.

Thread Type: Watchlist Watchlist threads under will grow and flow unindexed (Bounty Board excluded). Hypothetically, if Maken Tosch declared that all Scouts should have only one EQ Slot and a Sidearm Slot ... that'd go under Rogue Scout. A non-Scout making a similar declaration would fall under Tourist / Troll Activity. Thread Type: Builds This thread type will be actively indexed. Say, for example, Appia wishes to share her "CQC Dominatrix" loadout. She'd type it up in Gallente Loadouts, and folks could followup up with OOHs and AHHS, suggestions, etc. The front-page (index) of Gallente Loadouts would then be linked to her post for easy access. Thread Type: Metrics This thread type will store and index our maths and tables for easy access.

One of the prime abilities of a scout on CQC maps is the ability to be nearly everywhere at once. Your stamina dictates not just your survivability but how aggressive you can be in combat. It dictates how much presence you can have on the battlefield. When you run out of stamina you are easily hunted down and killed. Most of my deaths when I'm on a roll come from when I finally run out of stamina and can no longer kite/run away from my enemy. In these realistic applications of stamina and aggression, a scout must take breaks to refill his stamina pool. Even with a complex regulator a minmatar/gallente/caldari scout has to wait for a very long time once he runs out of stamina or he will have to choose to continue to fight with in a weakened state. A scout entering a fight with less than half a stamina bar and runs into something unexpected is probably going to die. With a bonus to pool AND regen the realistic applications of stamina on an Amarr scout means this: With it's higher EHP and juggernaut like stamina he will be able to remain aggressive until his HP runs out. Not the other other way around like every other scout. You spend practically no time with regen (you're not supposed to be about HP regen anyway). You can remain aggressive until you 1. Run out of ammo 2. Get killed. No scout is sprinting 100% of the time. Sometimes it feels like it but it's not. Especially if you're jumping over railings a lot. The Amarr's regen and pool size means it will practically never see it's stamina depleted in most situations. My math is quickly supporting this. Max Regulator setup and skills 1964 Stamina 194 Which means seconds of running 30 Jumps in a row 350 stamina regen a second Just making a big jump over a hill and you recover all the stamina used for the jump and then more while maintaining speed. That sounds amazing actually. I'll stick with my burst sprinting though. I don't jump too much in combat. Nothing says "F**K YOU!" like a direct Flaylock to the face. Minmatar. In Rust we trust.

I ran pistols and knives for a long time and even with zero proficiency skills an ADV pistol will give a proto suit witha proto weapon with proper skills invested a large run for it's money. A scout with an extra 10% plus 10% for a damage mod plus cloaking with a pistol would be absolutely ridiculous. Plus we need to be careful how we buff marauder. Damage mods will no longer be 10% at complex. Also TTK is getting increased, partially with some weapons getting base damage nerfs, so hard to tell which weapons will still be as powerful as they currently are. Though I ultimately agree that damage bonuses are very dangerous. An ammo capacity bonus on the other hand would be nice, since the scrambler pistol does chew through its batteries.

Knives can take down a target in one shot ffs. Flaylock can land 3 full direct shots and have targets go "What?" and have time to turn around. Thank god it has a good reload speed. If you give it a bigger clip to counter this, you do nothing but cater to people who refuse to learn how to use a skill shot weapon. Lets keep it hard to use, but reward it's good use.

Unless you got an aimbot, you are NOT going to be pulling that off on a regular basis And for your XYZ can take down a target claims.. it depends on the target, and where you hit it. A scrambler pistol CANNOT take down a heavy, or a well tanked logi (or even a highly tanked assault) with one clip of body shots (well maybe if you have clipsize maxed, but not normally). You have to land at least 1 headshot, to do it in 1 clip. So in that sense, it is currently already comparable to ScP. Except the ScP gets an enormous bonus to Headshot damage and has a projectile that travels INSTANTLY. Pulling off headshots is not difficult with the ScP. Flaylock is a whole different story. Also, A TT-3 can deal 562 damage to shields in 6 shots with no proficiency. You can now deal 281 damage to armor with the remaining 5 shots. This will kill any Cal Assault you encounter that isn't dual tanking with 300+ armor. WITHOUT headshots. Quote: If you give it a bigger clip to counter this, you do nothing but cater to people who refuse to learn how to use a skill shot weapon. erm.. I think thats making a really odd, out of thin air statement, that is just an opinion, rather than fact. i could just as easily say, "adding more damage to this, does nothing but cater to people who refuse to learn how to headshot with a skill shot weapon". Your statement is no more valid, or less valid, than the one i just made. Go and actually use the flaylock. Getting body shots is the name of the game, NOT abusing it's splash. If you give the Flaylock the same damage, but give it a 6 round clip, you will see people do nothing but SPAM the gun in CQC. Not how a "skill shot" weapon is supposed to work. Skill shot weapons should have high Alpha damage, and low clip sizes, to ensure that if you use it incorrectly, you pay for it. High Risk, High Reward. Quote: Lets keep it hard to use, but reward it's good use. I want to deal 431 damage to armor with a direct shot. It's a freaking missle hitting you in the chest with no shields. That thing should hit you so hard it's not even funny. Okay, that's your opinion. A differing opinion would be, "a sidearm has no business doing as much damage as a shotgun, on body shots. ESPECIALLY at 8x the range" (yeah yeah its 50 points less. but its still fairly equivalent) Also, yes it's a missle, but it's a small missile. It's not a grenade launcher. Small missle? Does it matter? It's dumbfire, so it's just a container packed with explosives with a rocket strapped to the end. Everyone knows a small, fast moving object has some amazing force behind it. Combine that with an explosive warhead, and you have something that will ruin someone's day if you hit them with it. Grenade launchers focus more on a larger explosion and a slower projectile. They have less impact force, but more splash. Remember this equation: F=MV^2. Increasing the speed by a factor of 2 increases total force by a factor of 4. As for shotgun damage? Shotgun pellets hit almost instantaneously. Not difficult to hit targets with. If someone can hit me with a Flaylock from 5+m away in the chest (in strafe), I would be more amazed by the shot than by the damage. That thing is crazy hard to use. So... increasing clip size, would directly address your complaint of "I shouldn't be using a full clip to kill every target I see. ". You've set your mind against it, for odd reasons. but it is one solution to your core complaint. It is A Solution. Not a good one. As I said, it would do nothing but draw out engagements. I don't want to be firing 4+ rounds at a target to kill them. It's staple among the sidearms is high alpha damage without headshot application. A quick shot to the chest or 2 quick splashes to the ground. If you only give this gun a larger clip, you will see people just spamming shots and hoping they get lucky. Not what I want to see happen to this gun. I believe I have answered all of your counter arguments. Please read the bold. Nothing says "F**K YOU!" like a direct Flaylock to the face. Minmatar.

Nothing too drastic but maybe like 1% total ammo every 10 seconds per level. At proto level you'd get 5% per 10 seconds, which would fully replenish a fully depleted weapon in 200 seconds or 3 minutes 20 seconds. Of course these are just example numbers and open to change. This would fit with the whole relentless Amarr lore stuff perfectly and is very much a combat focused skill, which goes well with them being a very aggressive race. Wow, yeah, that sounds like my favorite one so far. Yes.....and given that EVE side laser tech has not ammunition values and is essentially limitless..... However I strikes me as and oddity, not a bad bonus by any means, just odd. True, it's a bit outside the box and possibly hard to implement but could be cool - would have to entirely replace the stamina bonus though I reckon. No dice then. Stamina bonus is by far the best fitting and only worth while bonus left to the Amarr on this one. I already dropped my argument down from Complex Cardiac Regulator. I will not drop it from less than ADV regulator. But if you buy now, we'll throw in some extra armor buffer! MAKE YOUR SUIT SHININER! BUY NOW!

Please read the bold. Also, stop trying to bring up headshots as the magical cure to DPS. They are there for EXTRA damage, not to make up for terrible base stats. Yet ironically, YOU bring up headshots for the scrambler pistol. I think you're not thinking calmly about this (as shown by that dichotomy), so I wont attempt to reply to your post further on that. I'm getting frustrated because you have no experience with the weapon, no data to back anything up, and you just don't seem to grasp the points I am trying to make! (or are just refusing to acknowledge them) I specifically stated that ScP's do NOT need headshots to give them a good DPS. READ MY MATH. An ScP WITHOUT proficiency can take down a shield tank in one clip to the chest. A fully specced out Flaylock can't do the same to an Armor tank. Not even close. Here is some more data for you! TT-3 actually does 84 damage instead of 75. Here is the new damage to a Cal assault, with 600 shields and 200 armor. First 6 shots will deal 600 damage to shields, and 23 damage to armor. You now have to deal 177 damage to kill target. You can deal that last 177 damage in 3 shots. You still have 2 shots left in the clip. Now lets try the same experiment with a Proto Flaylock with Proficiency. Against an armor tank, with 200 shields 600 armor. 1st shot deals 156 damage to Shields. DIRECT shot to the chest. 2nd shot deals 44 damage to shields, and 140 damage to armor. Direct again. 3rd Shot deals 260 armor damage. Direct again. Target is still alive with 200 armor left. Reload. 4th shot (Direct) Finally kills target. If he had regen going, he might even survive the fourth shot (I only killed him by 60 hp. A good rep hive could save him during reload. Do you see the problem here? Not to mention that a ADV ScP with no prof outperforms a Proto Flaylock with full proficiency against ideal targets, but it also hits it's targets instantly and gets a 4x bonus to headshot damage. Flaylock has a delayed fire and only 1.4x damage to headshots, along with requiring more TTK. It needs a rebalance, and Damage is the only way to fix both it's TTK and it's underperformance.

This is freaking awesome. Nothing says "F**K YOU!" like a direct Flaylock to the face. Minmatar. In Rust we trust.

Found this: http://evenews24.com/2014/01/27/liveb-5rb-dropped-sov-massive-fight-is-brewing-live/ No idea what any of this means :P Okay, short rundown. The fighting sides are CFC and PL (Pandemic Legion). SOV is short for Soverignty. I think you can guess what that means. Whoever has SOV has control of that section of space, and gains a lot of benefits. It is granted by stations (immovable platforms) and you have to pay bills to keep it running. PL forgot to pay their bills, and now CFC jumped in a huge fleet to take advantage of this and take control of that pocket of space. They dropped their own station, and have to defend it for 8 hours. Que gigantic freaking battle over a single asset. It's awesome. For comparison, The Battle of Asakai made gaming news about a year ago (which was started over a mis-click lol) only lost around 3 titans, 6 supercarriers and some assorted capitals. It was one of the largest battles in recent history, and totaled around $17k USD in losses. This battle has already lost around 22 titans, and over $80k in losses. This is huge.

You are using projection as a way to throw your unwanted feelings on to me and others the same way the rest of the haters are choosing to. That is how you block out your anxiety and your depression temporarily. I am simply a better man than you. Your responses are not going to make you feel better. The truth is you did not deny anything i said which further proves you have guilt. It looks like all the time you spent in the Dust 514 forums complaining about me has not made you feel better as you have not accomplished anything. You actually make me look better than you as i am better at life than you. My post points out that everything you are complaining about you are actually doing which is where you contradict yourself. Remember you started it, you overlook how patrick57 said he was wrong but i did not kick him while he was down. You never bring that up. If he can admit he is wrong than why cant you? When you disrespect someone to begin with then you must be able to take what you dish out and you simply have not done that. I can tell you are angry and depressed, but that does not scare me. I dont hate you, but you hate me. You are actually harassing me when i am not harassing you. All of your responses are like blank messages. I am empathetic for any human being struggling. I actually wish you and your family and your friends more success and good health, but see you haven't wished me any good as you are wishing evil upon me. That is proof i am humble and you are not. I will make a video about all of you guys and it wont be what you expect. I can tell you been abandoned and you struggle to accept rejection. You struggle to take constructive criticism and you want to be overly critical of everyone else. You guys cant are like a group of people trying to jump one guy and you still get beaten down and lose. I find that to be interesting. You have some inner demons that i dont have. Matter of fact the Devil is clapping for you the more you respond. You are sinister and your motive was not a sincere one to begin with. If someone punched you in the face and it wasn't me, but then i use your argument and say you cant say or do anything i know you would not listen to me. What if someone sent you hate mail for hours, days , weeks, months and was trying to make you look bad in public and what if i told you that you should let them push you around and that you should not do anything to defend yourself? You would disagree with me and you would defend yourself. See you want freedom of speech, but you dont want me to have freedom of speech as if you are hiding something like you are afraid of me. You started off attempting to troll, but failed miserably then you got angry when i told you the truth. You little guys are too dull and not funny enough to troll and you care too much about stats and looks with the public when a troll does not care about that stuff. I am making money off of you as i already did when i put your name on the video. You are trying to lecture me when you cant take your own advice and you continue to come on my channel and watch my videos while paying me from previous videos. You are too late. Its funny how i am getting even more subs and views and more money. This means the majority of the world disagrees with you haters . You wont respond to my supporters, that alone proves you haters are scared. Have you ever wondered why most of my videos are not about exposing people? Have you ever wondered why we dont get along, but i get along with most viewers. Take a look in the mirror and what do you see? I see a person who takes all the important people and things for granted. You little guys are not tough enough and cannot survive out there on your own especially where i am from. You need more than a grandiose argument with thick skin. I am too smart and too strong for you. I have too much wisdom. I have been there and done that. You want revenge dont you? You want the last word dont you? You will fail every time. I upload the most wins so there should be no argument about who is better cause you know i am, but that is not the most important thing. You have not even mentioned God, but you call yourself humble. Then you ask me why should i expect you little guys to be humble. I dont feel entitlement like you. You act like i owe you something but i dont. You must earn respect to get it and in order for you guys to feel better there must be mutual respect and a clean conscience which you dont have that is why you are here on my channel looking to get rid of your guilt in the wrong way. You want me to feel you pain dont you. Well feel no guilt. I feel good. I dont regret what i said. I meant it. Its not personal from my end, but you are making it personal which wont benefit you or them. It must hurt to see me succeed, but you guys dont. You know you could always admit you are wrong and you all would feel much better. I gave Patrick57 credit when he admitted he was wrong, i would do the same for you guys. I do show mercy. I have showed you guys mercy the entire time. I did not wish evil, sickness or death among you or your friends and your families. You will reap what you sow. You guys simply are not smart or mature enough to troll or to even debate let alone fight. You guys cant keep your composure. You are using projection to try and make me and everyone else unhappy cause you are unhappy. Yes you are narcissistic. Remember i did not go back and forth from youtube to the Dust 514 forums leaving comments to make you look bad, but you were trying that to make me look bad and it just made me look better. Just look at the comments on my channel that are positive. It proves you guys are wrong. I defeated you all. I defeated you haters as i showed you mercy. I didn't say jump off a cliff or drown or die. I actually pray for you all, but you dont pray for me. You dont want me to complain, but you complain.

(Granted though, when I get that respec, I will have Proto Scout on the first day. But that is only around 2.5mil of my SP. Around 13mil of it is going straight into Upgrades, to max out CPU/PG, Hack Speed, Dampening, and Shields.

Hence why getting very good core skills and maxing your ADV suit is a better move than getting Proto before you are ready for it. TL;DR Ignore this man. You should be trying to max out your ADV suit before moving onto proto suits. Only exception is when you are simply trying to make a PC ready suit ASAP (in which it's better to spend the SP on upgrades and just run LP or AUR Proto suits.)

Not that I don't like Chemistry, I actually started out as a Chemical Engineering major, but I ended up having to switch to Computer Science because I'm terrible at lab work and I'll graduate faster. I've finished a minor in mathematics, though: Calculus I-IV, Differential Eq/Linear Algebra, and Discrete Structures (the only one I was actually good at). Calc III was a ***, infinite series, 3D graphing, and integrals over polar coordinates. Calc IV wasn't that bad though, iterated integrals over 3D Cartesian and spherical/cylindrical polar coordinates, basically just do what you did in calc II-III 2-4 times on the same equation. It was worth it to finish my last Calc IV assignment and to find the beginning of the appendix on the next page, it was fulfilling to realize I had finally made it from cover to cover of the calculus book. I CAN do math, I just don't like it. Don't get me wrong, number crunching is fun (at times, and dang useful too), but when on earth am I going to be calculating integrals by partial fractions and trigonometric substitution BY HAND? I love Chem Lab on the other hand though. I have the class at 7:30am for around 2.5 hours once a week, and it's 2.5 hours I never feel is wasted. I love the lab environment. I can't wait to finish all my math and focus on the science. Hence why I'm going for a Chem/BioChem major. It's a gateway degree to a lot of different fields in chemistry. I can use this to go straight into lab work or go and get a Pharm degree if I want to (what my original plan was). It's comprehensive for me, so no minor required.

Posting this because my brain feels like mush right now, and this is helping alleviate some of that. Sorry if it's off topic. Bleh. Glad I'm done with that stuff (at least until I go back and get my Masters). Do you have to take Differential Equations after Calc? Those problems make Calc ones look like simple arithmetic. Thank God no. Cal II, and Physics II + Lab is all I have to take for my Major. After that, it's Chem, Chem, Chem. Ah you haven't had fun until you've survived multivariable calculus and linear algebra. Though high level probability and stats is pretty terrible too. Just look forward to p chem. It's just one of those things you go through as a rite of passage. Oh and analytical (quantitative) chemistry, for some reason other people had a problem with sitting in front of a titration for 2 hours just to find out how much calcium was in the solution.....for some reason I thought it was great.... @Appia Molecular genetics was by far my favorite course in undergrad (was the main reason I continued on to grad school in a biomedical field instead of chem) Did my first cloning project in molecular genetics lab using a plasmid construct to introduce siRNA into Arabadopsis. Totally incomprehensible to layman (more or less) (no people, not cloning animals, recombinant genetics in bacteria and plants, which still sounds nefarious but is in reality far more banal and boring than you can imagine) My Advisor Recommended Calc III before taking P chem. Not happening, but I know that will be a tough class. As for Titrations? I did two in high school Chem. They were fun! I can't wait to do them in lab and see the inevitable 2-3 people get aggravated that it's taking too long, dump in a bunch of acid, and then blow right past the end point.

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'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.)

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).

It's also so mentally un-stimulating it's not even funny. I complain about my job a lot, but that's only because I'm not paid what I should be. I'm still getting minimum wage when I routinely outperform my co-workers despite only having been here for a year. I help the managers take inventory because most can't do mental math to save their life (and nobody can find the calculator because nobody knows how to put things back where they find them) I keep reminding people above me on the chain of command about the proper way to fix a problem (fix the cause, not the symptom). I still end up fixing half the problems on my shift (Fixing the drain on the sinks, problems with the CO2 system and soda, putting doors back together because people slam them and bolts come off, etc. etc. etc. ) And despite all of this, they decide that my "raise" I get after a year of working there was the $0.25 raise to minimum wage that EVERYONE got. I'm gonna keep the job for the semester, and the NOPE the FK outta there during the summer. My dad is gonna try and get me a job where he works as a mechanics assistant. $10-12 an hour and roughly 40 hours a week.

You have 2-3 sweepers (made to KO other Poke) 1 Utility (for hazards, buffs, phasing, etc) 1 Wall (to absorb damage) and 1 Extra Poke to fill up any holes. My team runs 3 sweepers (Garchomp, Latias, and Tyranitar. Two Physical, one Special sweeper) My Utility/Wall is Forretress (He does both really well) My Main Wall was Gastrodon (made to patch up a major water weakness on my team) My Extra was Magnezone (who was used to eliminate steel types for a Garchomp sweep later, and doubled as a special sweeper) Most Fights revolve around switching and countering, and end with a sweep. This fight boiled down to my Wall versus his Wall. Neither had too much offensive power, and both resisted the other's stabs. So it became a race to see who would run out of PP first.

I would prefer a damage buff, but this will help it's problem of not being able to kill in a clip. Also, some other predictions. Due to the how they are setting up the shield recharge rates, this is my predictions for the Assault suit recharge rates. Currently, it's Commando < Sentinel < Logi < Assault < Scout for shield recharge rates. Due to the currently released values for Shield recharges, here is my guess for the rates: Min Assault: 30 hp/s Cal Assault: 40 hp/s Gal Assault: 20 hp/s Amr Assault: 20 hp/s This is roughly in between the Sentinel and Scout recharge rates. This makes sense when you look at the values Cal Commando: 20 hp/s Cal Sentinel: 30 hp/s Cal Assault: ? Cal Scout: 50 hp/s Min Commando: 18 hp/s Min Sentinel: 20 hp/s Min Assault: ?

The splash damage was it's problem. I remember LordChaos QC killing me over and over and over again in Ambush with his dual Flaylock suit ._. ROF was the problem.

Like those films about Vampires/Werewolves/Aliens whatever - where apparently you have to register with proclaimed authority because of the sheer nature of being what you are. And as for suffering...weren't scouts OP in beta? This all comes across as a bit bitchy - love you guys really. Beta was a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time ago. We have been UP for a very long time, been promised buffs for the past 8 patches, and have only received 1 buff so far. And that was a 6m base scan buff. As for the Registry Drama: Most of the "Vet" Scouts are proud of having run their UP suit despite all of the FOTM builds going on. They want to preserve the fact that they didn't give up on their class even in it's darkest days. That is why the new registry is getting heat. It's being populated by "Scouts" who just recently picked up the suit, and are skipping over everything that the scout community has done since 1.0 Uprising. That is why this list on this registry will not be changed. Everyone on it has been here from the beginning. We volunteered our data to try and prove to CCP that our beloved class was broken and UP. Most of us could have moved onto other suits and been FAR more deadly, but we didn't. Because we wanted to see the scout brought up to where it should be. That will (Probably) be happening in 1.8, so we want to take pride in what we helped accomplish. And we don't want to see anyone on that list who didn't contribute.

Appia, how do you do the math for this? I think I might be faster than this. 1.1 base + 25% from skill + 25% from suit + 25% from module.) I will also have a Six Kin ACR and Ishnoks for combat purposes. Unless you play PC and are being lagged out, go boundless. So much better, Ghost. Also, so mcuh easier to fit. You also left out a grenade unless you don't use them you can fit a flux there. I'm personally not a big fan of that fit though. It seems too generic. My 1.8 proto min scout with have separate builds for killing, running around, hacking, causing mayhem. It is generic. It is kinda an "All around" fit, made to be able to respond to several different scenario's at once. I like flexibility. I will probably also have separate fits for other roles, but this will be my "Go to" fit. Boundless is actually more CPU than the ACR. I always fight point-blank, so I actually prefer the spraying power of the ACR (Although I can use the Vanilla CR. It's a matter of taste) As for the grenade, yeah, I forgot it. There should be a flux. HOW TO SHARE FITS: Go to detail fits under the fitting tab. Click on it, and there should be a share option. It will give you a link to copy paste.

When you provide evidence and numerical proof your are right perhaps we might revise our position. As of yet you have not and your argument lacks substance except that is of "I AM A SCOUT SO....." Spreadsheets dont make a suit. The Minmatar scout, on paper, looks terrible. But it performs in the field. The Amarr scout, to my eye, looks like it will excel in specific areas while the slot layout allows it to perform reasonably across the board. Particularlary as scouts now have an appropraite baseline to work from (lowered scan profile, higher scan precision and scan radius). You may not agree, and that's fine. But making selective comparisons and calling it evidence doesn't make you right either. I'm not saying I am.....I also wont use the suit....so really have not stake in this.

Bugs aside, what would you change? Not much to change, it's just hell on Min Scouts. Once again, the red headed stepchild. Cal Scouts are at the top of the food chain. With a single Precision, they can scan me with a proto damp. I can dodge while cloaked, but not if they run two precisions. I don't use a shotgun, so I lose the alpha battle. Unless I wanna use Knives/Shotgun, I will always be easy prey to Cal Scouts. I cant kill them before they can close the distance and OHK me. Not only that, but the sheer number of scouts on the field is STAGGERING. Everyone is either a scout or Heavy. Not kidding. Med frames are a rare sight. Couple this with most people skilling into Cal Scouts due to their ability to tank and their ability to counter-scout, and you have a very not fun patch for non-Gal scouts. So I spend most of my time trying to knife heavies that don't pay attention, but thats harder to do because of cloaks. All of them are paranoid as **** now. They turn around constantly, and since the cloak does not hide you very well at all within 20m, they just see the shimmer and spray. The only great thing about this suit is the hack speed. Dear god the hack speed. It's crazy. I will say this about 1.8. The most fun I had was 2 hours after the patch hit (When I first got on). There was nowhere near as much scout and heavy spam, and that was truly fun. I was going 11-2 (Not high on the kills) but going 1500 WP + each round. Pop in, get a kill, hack an objective and scamper off. Now there are so many scouts and heavies everywhere, the battlefield is just freaking CHAOS 24/7. Not a big fan of that part.

Done eHP is not everything. Pros of my Suit over yours: Sprints faster, longer, and more often. Hacks almost twice as fast Knives can kill almost any hard target easily. You will have to kite or run from heavies I can dodge your scans. You need to run a precision if you are a cal. You sacrifice so much potential. (I can also scan all undamped cal scouts!) Higher melee damage Cons: Less overall eHP. Less eHP Regen. You have +10 HP/s and 1 sec faster recharge and delay times. Granted, this is a comparison between a PRO Min scout and an ADV Cal scout. But seeing what you were fitting the suit with, you would make a PRO Cal just as bad. Shield Extenders are nice, but you lack utility. Repeat after me: eHP IS NOT EVERYTHING Notice the huge amount of UTILITY in my scout. Hack Speed Assassination abilites Higher Overall Mobility Min Scouts are hard mode for a reason. Their true strength isn't really in the stats. It's about using it's versatility to be as large a benefit to your team as you can. My Tactics: (For what it's worth) When I run with a squad, I generally run a bit ahead of a squad of a Heavy or two, a logi, and an assault or two. I am the spearhead of the assault. I get in quick, do a check to tell them what they are about to run into, and to try and take down unaware targets before the flank hits. Kill a target. Run as they target me. In comes squad with the flank. I maneuver around and flank the enemy AGAIN as they engage my squad. If they have taken out most of the targets, I mop up the guy pinned behind cover. If there are multiple tangos still up, I flux and spray with SMG. Weakens them, and lets the squad move up. This normally makes quick work of squads. I go for the hack, and they cover. We flip the objective FAST because I have Complex Codebreakers on my squad. Roughly a 5 second hack. Most of the time, the squad doesn't even have half a chance to spawn back in. Secure, and check for possible late spawns. Rep, Resupply and and we pick a direction to run in. Logi throws a quick beam scan in the direction we head so that I know where to look. Rinse and Repeat.

I go into Bravo (Death trap objective) and see the horde of heavies moving to take supply depot (The hack had just finished.) They all were leaving, so I just kept tabs on them with passive scans while cloaked. I waited until I saw the gunfight go down over by supply. I hacked the objective in 5s and ran. I then went to Charlie (Right across from Bravo) and took that as well. Then I hooked around, took CRU and headed up to Alpha. Stab Heavy guard, hack Alpha, jump down. Head into the underground supply depot. Hack that. I notice that they had just started to hack charlie. So I hack Bravo The life of a Min scout is so fun now.

Extra melee damage? Extra knife damage? Both I found to be superfluous, I ran a level 3 minmitar scout and never had a problem with knives. Melee takes away a huge chunk of stamina each time and it really makes it much more difficult to be mobile. I always found melee in Dust to be comical at best, you could spray with your SMG or swipe with your knives and be much more effective. Knives do more damage, have longer range, AND don't require stamina. The gal has a little extra hp. The cost is easily managed by also switching to a six kin. Hacking better by a factor of 0.15 is not noticeable due to server ticks. Granted the extra movement is nice, its not outmatched by the 7.5 extra meters of passive scanning. In fact we would be better off removing the stamina and swapping out for complex range, then you can see for days ~50m and hack pretty much "risk free" Like I was saying the minimitar just doesn't have the bonuses to make it competitive. I would consider it "hard mode" when its not necessary. Kudos for running with it man, but it still needs some PG buffs to make it worth spending SP into. I actually do use the melee. Knives are almost always used pre-ordained for me, so if I'm in CQC and they are low on health, I go in for the melee. Knives also have delay (weapon switch and brief delay before slash), so the ability to quickly deal 210 damage is nice. I actually out melee'd a commando today. (We traded punches. I won) If you don't like the Melee, don't use it. I still have an extra high slot to use. As for the HP? The better shield recharge times and extra regen help when you are shield tanking. I can even use that extra high slot to hit almost 60 shield recharge a second, which is twice what you get. Really helps the downtime. For me, the bonuses are totally worth it. I wouldn't go Gal over Min in this build. Personally, I like the bonuses. PG Buff is needed. Very much so. I got my cloak and daggers, I'm a very happy Ghost I hack at Mach V

I was relying TOO much on passive scanning in 1.7 and it became my crutch This is the most likely reason as to why I'm doing comparatively worse in 1.8 even though scouts got a buff. In 1.7, everyone was a medium frame and I always picked them up on my passive scans as a scout. I learned to look on my radar more than on the screen similar to the active scanner dudes. As such, once scouts got buffed and more people started running them, I can't completely rely on my passive scan like in 1.7 anymore...unfortunately. I won't lie...there's been a couple matches where I've been getting wrecked lol. Now here's the weird part though... I am doing a lot better in PC lol. Like a lot better.

I'm going to need to get my Sharpshooter and Prof at least to 4 to use it effectively (and they need to fix it's hit detection). The 3.5s seize means that the charge shot is a finisher, not a opener. NEVER shoot a charge at a full health target unless you know that they low enough total eHP to die from a charge. How to Use the Ion Pistol 101: Lets say you engage two targets. One is low on health, and the other is injured, but still has enough eHP to survive a charge. Move from Low to High HP targets. Two shots to the low health target, and then target high eHP guy until he is down to below 350 eHP (Roughly). Charge and Release. This happens quicker than you think. I was able to quickly take down two targets in CQC like this. Excellent Assassination tool as well. If the target is a shield tank, you can put 4 shots into his back and follow with a charge to drop him before he can turn around. Final Notes: Go Proto or Go Home. The CreoDron is where its at.

(Both cloak like normal) Assault cloak has NO dampen bonus, has a short overall tank of energy, but decloaks faster than the tactical (1s instead of two). It also recharges faster The Tactical cloak HAS the dampen bonus, and has a very large tank of energy. Decloaks at 2s, and also takes longer to recharge. It also has greatly reduced shimmer while moving. Both cloaks can't fire until decloak finishes. Assault cloak does not require you to press R1 to uncloak. Tactical does. The Assault will Disrupt cloak if shot at (But only for a little bit), but the Tactical will COMPLETELY break cloak if hit (Its sensitive yo). Fluxes drain the battery of both cloaks.

I'm fine with anybody running large eHP pools. So long as they pay the penalties. Right now, Basic plates give large HP bonus with very little CPU/PG cost and barely ANY speed penalty. The only real penalty they suffer from is lack of innate repair like shields. I want Armor tankers to be slow and tough, and shield tankers to be fast, and a little on the fragile side. Dual Tankers are the toughest of both bunches, but have terrible shield regen and armor regen to make up for it. If they re-balance the CPU and PG on shields and armor, they can also re-balance the CPU and PG values of the suits to reflect their intended role. Cal and Min Suits would be high in CPU, but low in PG, wheras the Amarr and Gal would be high in PG, but low in CPU (With Min getting slightly lower CPU in exchange for higher PG to reflect their hybrid tanking and speed tanking abilities, and the Gal getting slightly higher CPU in exchange for lower PG to reflect their better regen tanking abilities.) This is the way I want Dust to be. Clearly defined archetypes, but with the freedom to mess with the fits within reason.

Only to people who like abusing low hp suits to be out of their class. Ummmm...no. I'm not sure why so many scouts have a problem with it, but I think the assult scout is an entirely viable playstyle. The relevant question is not "is it viable?" Rather, "is it appropriate/balanced/fair?" Replace "assault scout" with "slayer logi",and perhaps you get the idea (Or do you abuse those too? :p ) "Slayer logi is an entirely viable playstyle". Well, of course it's "viable"(aka useful). But it's still abuse of the general class concept. Sane class grouping should be: Scouts: light, fast, low armor, high EWAR. Logis: medium everything, (with perhaps explicitly low damage), lots of EQ Assaults: lots of armor, lots of damage Heavy: ludicrous armor, ludicrous damage... stupid slow, and electronically blind. I'm fine with a "Light Assault". I just hate role theft. A decently tanked scout can function as a psuedo-Assault suit with enhanced eWar capabilities. It neglects maxing out its strengths and instead focuses on eliminating its weaknesses (eHP, Armor Regen, firepower). The Assault can make this trade as well, by dumping other mods in favor of eWar mods. It can sacrifice some of its eHP, combat regen and firepower in favor of some eWar mods. Both suits perform the same roughly, but with different strengths. The Scout Assault would have noticeably less eHP and staying power, but have better eWar and stealth abilities. The Assault Scout would have noticeably more eHP and staying power, but also have marginally better eWar and stealth abilities (Such as dodging proto scans or being able to scan other Med Frames within their scan range). They would be SIMILAR but not COPIES of each other. Problem right now is that CCP doesn't know how to balance this game well. Once the Assaults get re-balanced, hopefully the med frames will get their strength back, and the differences between the two will be become noticeable. Right now, old Assault frames have taken up scout because the Scout suit can make a better assault suit than the med frame. It IS abuse and role theft, but they really have no choice in the matter. Either play in a gimped suit or use the best possible alternative. EDIT: Remember, this is Dust514. We do need clearly defined archetypes, but the beauty in this game is how that line can be blurred. You can adjust fits to emulate a playstyle you like, such as a psuedo-Logi scout or an Assault with eWar abilities. Short version of what I am trying to say: It's okay to fit a scout like an assault and play it like an assault, so long as the real assault ALWAYS does its job better. Emulated classes should not be more powerful than the archetype in its own strengths. This is the problem. Slayer Logi's were better Assaults than the Assault suit. Assault Scouts are better than the Assault suit. I got my cloak and daggers, I'm a very happy Ghost I hack at Mach V

You'd be providing long range scanning to like ~60m (I forget the exact range from 2 amps). You'd have enough tank to be able to take some stray fire not mopped up by the heavy and you might not get noticed too much anyway because you're less likely to get scanned than a real logi.

To quote Mr Musturd, "Man, I don't play Ghostbusters514 unless they need me for PC." Outside of the fitting constraints? Not really for me. Lack of a bonus to precision or dampening is terrible though, as it really makes the Min and Amarr pale by comparison. I have to use a a high slot to pick up proto damp suits, and if I want a semi decent scan range, you gotta have a range extender. The main problem is the lack of versatiltiy. You have to laser focus a Min Scout. You want speed? Well, you won't really have too much PG left over for Hacks (Without running very low PG weapons, and no second equipment. Also, say goodbye to triple shields. I run this fit, but than again, I'M CRAZY) You want Hacks? Welp, no speed for you. Dual hacks consumes all of the two low slots you have left over (Never run without a proto damp). PG problems limit fitting from there. You want eWAR? You gotta run at least a single range extender and two complex precisions to hit below 28dB. You now have 198 shields at max. You now get to see what you want on that last low slot. Choose wisely. Fitting Cal or Gal or even Amarr scout is SOOOO much easier than a Min Scout. I will say this though, as gimped as the suit is versatility wise, not much can compete with its specialized fits. Speed fits will leave everyone else in the dust. 2 Kincats makes you the fastest on the field barring a triple kincat and cardiac gal scout. And they will have far less recoverable eHP than you do (I can run 270 shields on the above fit, be proto damped, and have 60 shield recharge a second, ON TOP of a Six Kin ACR and proto Knives + Cloak) Hack fits can hack in INSANE amounts of time. A single hack mod puts you at 4.6s. Two will get you down to 3.8s hacks. You can sill run decent shields and recovery, with proto damps and a cloak. You don't have the speed to escape, but you can counter hack and hack in lightning quick times. You can also run a combat scout with decent success. I can fit a Min Scout with 343 shields, 170 armor with no speed penalty. Proto damps, proto armor rep, a Boundless and a Core Flaylock. With an ADV cloak.

Anyways, the tower will have its own ares for each class. Kinda like a hangout spot where you can chat up and trade strats with other people in the same class. Current Speculation has the Titan (Soldier build) having its area in a barrack, the Warlock having its area in a Library, and the Hunter having its hangout in a bar. A bar. I can't wait. EDIT: Read this if you are curious. It's an excellent summary of what the game will be like. It releases on August 9th. Beta will be this summer. Expected date is somewhere in late may. Pre-order the game for the beta. I got my cloak and daggers, I'm a very happy Ghost I hack at Mach V

Eh? http://web.ccpgamescdn.com/dust/news.control/65845/1/4.jpg seems to indicate that magsec range isnt all that great. base has optimal range of 40, and proto has 48? 48m OPTIMAL and 66 for effective range for a sidearm.

Pick one: Keep Cloak skills on the scout and watch as the cloak gets horribly nerfed Dump cloak skills, and focus on skills that have more to do with eWAR and the likes I for one, pick to dump the cloak. I use it because I have a bonus to it. I actually spend most of my time uncloaked, because I prefer the ability to have my gun up and ready at a moments notice.

Here is the link to the post Highlights for those who don't want to read: Slot layout becomes 2 sidearms, no grenade. Shared Passive scans with the Team. WP for each kill made from your passive scans LOS scans are shared with squad. No WP for these. Cloak takes 3 seconds to cloak or decloak. You can run while this happens. You cannot switch weapons out of it. Cloak keeps its dampening bonus. Skill changes to cloak skill, includes bonus to reduce decloak time by 5% per level. This amounts to 3/4 of a second off cloaking (or de-cloaking). If you factor in both sides, this is 1.5 seconds, which makes it a worth investment. If these highlights intrigue you, read the post.

Oooooh, 2 sidearms would kill my Sniper and fast AV* fits, and don't understand why no grenade. I very seldomly use it but have it ready just in case SLs or PLCs* get some love in the future ** I only really care about SLs I'm focusing on it being a non-combat fit. Best way to do that is remove light weapon slot. If you want to snipe or AV, we have other classes. The changes I am making are for the scout to be a support class, with very little offensive capabilities. Ideally, I want to build the game towards this: Bulk of offensive power on teams in Assault and Commando's. Sentinels are used for heavy defense or heavy assault. Logi's and Scouts provide the above with the equipment, support, and scans they need to succeed. You wouldn't see squads of scouts running around in PC, but you would see a few on the field for the eWAR benefits they provide. I want balance among the classes, in a way the befits their roles.

Not sure what you'd call it - Ranger, Spotter, Black Ops? I like some of the ideas at least - would not get rid of the grenade slot though - nades are already precious as they are since we only get 2 and it'd be enough of a drawback only having sidearms. I still see no point in giving him a grenade. Grenades are used to flush targets out of cover. If they are in cover, the scout I made would simply cloak and run away instead of trying to duke it out. I would be fine with making this class a side spec. However, I would have to insist that eWAR capabilites on the other scout to be removed. One scout made for eWAR and stealth, the other made for combat and regen. I got my cloak and daggers, I'm a very happy Ghost I hack at Mach V

I already do that. it doesnt work for me against decent proto players. As for your earlier post: I would play adv. tier. I wouldnt play basic tier. Also, I would be perfectly happy having limits on skill tiers to go along with the gear. "ADV tier: only adv or below gear, and all skills capped to 3 or lower" That is reasonably fair. If players cant keep up with that, they should be able to go play basic-only. At that point, it will be purely skill based differential. Which is fair. nothing can or should be done about that. There are two options to limit the field. SP and Gear. Both would horrendously limit the field, so pick one. I choose SP due to the above scenario I presented earlier. However, you brought up a FANTASTIC Idea. Scaled skills. Cap the passives at ADV level for the ADV tier. You don't phase out the higher SP players, they just play with toons that have their skills limited to ADV tier. I actually think that will work really well. Too bad that creates a host of new problems though. Shields would be terrible, as enhanced aren't worth it, and PRO isn't available. That being said, it's a far better solution than what I came up with. I support that. See if someone can get IWS in here. EDIT: To clarify, this means that Players with maxed out skills will play with skills reduced to ADV level. EVERYTHING. From hack speed, grenades, equipment etc. Couple this with a Gear Limitation (To the respective SP tier) and you create a really balanced enviroment.

This is why I keep saying I have nothing wrong with this Hotfix. I have NEVER needed eHP to survive. Did something change recent? didn't you avoid PC battles before? Serious, if all you do is play in pubs you never have to try. I go AFK, I watch videos, I chat on skype mid-match in pubs. hell I even do that in Molon Labe PC because the other guys are such crap players. And I can still go 17-4 in Starter Fit against people in proto gear. There's a huge gap in skill for this game, if you're too accustomed to going up against the people that don't have any, no wonder you think you don't need HP. Here is my PC Scout fit. Yes, I do PC, and often. ERA and HvLP are the main people I have gone up against recently. I have never used suits with over 343 shields and 87 armor. Never. I still routinely play PC, and still get kills with it, DESPITE your math. How? I pick my targets a bit carefully. I don't engage heavies unless they have their backs turned. I don't venture too far outside of areas with cover. I don't rush every damn person I see and go for massive kill counts. What do I do? I make sure to protect objectives with Nova Knives and counter hack quickly (with people covering me). Duvoulle is used to quickly take down my greatest enemy, the Cal Scout. DPS v Shields is insane with the Duvoulle (Around 545 v Shields. I melt Cal Scouts). I also use it to melt shields off suits that I can't kill. Since we have heavies and CR users, taking down shields gives them an advantage as well. In short, I'm careful. If I ABSOLUTELY have to kill someone up close point blank I can normally manage to do so, even if it costs my life. Granted, my K/D isn't exactly fantastic. I tend to average around 1 - 1.5 K/D in PC against good teams. HvLP I can almost always go 15-4 or something like that. If I have to die 5 or 9 times to make sure we NEVER lose homepoint, I'll do it.

And your condescending tone isn't appreciated. I've made it past her squad and killed her a couple times... quite epically . I don't think she's ever killed me ;) Not many people can handle an aggressive knifer. What is the home point? Home Point is the Objective closest to your MCC. It's the farthest out of the enemies way, and often considered a "Gimme" point, as you should always have control of it. Losing Homepoint is BAD news if your team is having trouble in city. You run the risk of getting completely pushed out of the battlefield. So, PC corps often leave at least one person on Homepoint defense. That person needs to be good at defending the objective against waves of 1-2 people (The typical "Take their Homepoint" team) Since you only have to engage 1-2 people at a time, it's often given to Slayers who can't stand the chaos of the city. If you go against a team that is really aggressive against homepoint, that changes. For Example: I was placed on Homepoint because we didn't have another scout that could do it when we played HvLP. All our scouts were being used for scanning the city. Good move, because HvLP didn't just send 1-2 people when we beat them silly in the city. They sent more like 6-8. Me, Benjamin Ciscko and one other guy basically had to hold them off until we could get reinforcements from the city. My God, that was so much fun. Hit and Run combat, taking down one or two people at a time, all while trying to slow the advance from their rapid uplink placements. We managed to hold them off of Homepoint for about a minute and a half before being totally overrun. Just in time though, because when they finally hacked the Point, 3-4 slayers from city squad came to reinforce. They shifted their flank, and I spawned in an uplink I had placed on the outskirts. Within 30 seconds, we had them pushed off. They spawned on those spammed links for another 30 seconds before we removed them from those as well. I set up RE's again and went back to defense while City Squad went back into city for the inevitable counter push. We basically repeated this 2-3 times during the match. They no showed the next one. I think I finished the match something like 15-6. PC is fun Headed to Destiny, To Hell with CCP PSN: EVL_Elgost105 RIP Dust514 05/02/14 GG CCP

All of them, racially. Amarr assault is fun with the AScR. But the Gal Assault with Reps is by far my favorite. Tempted to skill into it on the side. I was surprised about how long you could fight in it. In between fights, I repped at almost 10HP a second, so my 400 armor was almost always full. Shields restored themselves fairly quick, and acted as a buffer to keep my armor from taking damage in between fights. And that AR is just sick with a damage mod.

Gal Scout isn't as horribly ****** as people initially thought. Cal Scout is still operating in a similar manner. Am Scout is still really...not...good... Minmatar Scout still needs love. That sound about accurate? Minmatar needs a lot of love It just can't compete. PG and CPU starved with the lowest HP of them all. The only advantage it has numerically over the other scouts is the fact that it has a faster sprint and strafe. Which does you no good when scanned. I read earlier in this thread that "Stealth shouldn't be a Gal Scout Thing, it needs to be a SCOUT thing" I totally agree. eWAR is unbalanced because they keep trying to balance stealth around the scouts. All scouts need to be able to easily dodge scans. What's the point otherwise? I can't even think of how to balance eWAR right now. So many problems. 2x Damp's needed to dodge scans? Everyone is fine but the Caldari, who now have use all of their low slots to avoid scans. 1x Damp needed to dodge scans? Everyone is fine but the Gallente and Amarr who then ROFL-Stomp with the three extra low slots they have to fill. TIME FOR ARMOR! The only REAL way to balance this would be to require the Gal and Amarr to fit 2x Damps while only requiring the Min and Cal to fit 1x. But I don't see that ever happening, even though it would actually balance the fits rather well. This allows them all to dodge scans effectively without giving one scout a huge module advantage over the other. Headed to Destiny, To Hell with CCP PSN: EVL_Elgost105 RIP Dust514 05/02/14 GG CCP

I don't think there's a bonus that goes over 10% per level. scout is 15% but the thing is, it may look like a lot, but if you look at the math, its not actually very significant and, in my honest opinion, fixes the minmitar scout without making it overpowered Yeah, people don't realize that a 10% bonus to Kincats is almost worthless. Why? Because it multiplies a percentage of a small percentage. At max, that's 50%, which takes the 12% boost and makes it 18% Which translates to a grand total of : (DRUMROLL) +0.5m/s speed difference! Whoopie. Not enough to matter. 250% bonus? Kincats go to a 42% Increase That makes you 11.8 m/s from a single Kincat! Now, with the Speed cap, you would only sprint at around 11.12 m/s which is PERFECT for speed tanking. Although I would still like that 11.8 Now: About your changes to the Min Scout I like them, as it achieves the main goal of the suit. Speed, Stealth, and Hacking. The Min Scout needs ALL THREE to be a viable suit in PC. It needs the stealth to get to the point undetected, the hack to get it done before anyone crashes your party, and then the Speed to get out. How this is achieved can vary. I actually don't want a boost to Kincat efficacy. Just buff the Min Scout's base speed. Buff it to around 9.31 m/s. This makes the bonus from Bitoics buff it to 9.78 which is GOOD in it's own right. Wanna be faster? We can throw on a speed mod. 1 Complex puts you at exactly 11 m/s. Perfect. Now, the reason why I do this, is because I still want people to have flexibility. You keep the bonus to Knives and Hack, and you also buff the base hack to 1.25 (Zatara and I discussed the numbers, it won't make the scout OP. With 1x Codebreakers and 2x Damps, it makes the scout hack faster than a Gal running 2x Codebreakers and 2x Damp. Gal can't steal our hack role with this). Now, this also provides that flexibility I talked about. You are fast enough to survive, and you can now choose. More Speed? Or More Hack? Or maybe you're fine with 9.78 m/s sprint and the hack speed w/o mods. You have some freedom to fit other mods, to turn it into a slayer scout while maintaining a speed that separates you from the other scouts. A scout with 343 shields and 160 armor (Complex Ferro) will be a good skirmish fighter with decent hack to back it up. Allows you to have that flexibility to play as a light assault if you need to. Notice the word I keep saying. Flexibility. The Minmatar suits are supposed to be flexible, fragile suits that have a higher base speed over the other suits. The changes I have mentioned should help the Min Scout out a LOT. OH, and PG still needs a buff. What fit will I run? 2x Shields 1x Complex Sidearm Damage Mod 2x Damp 1x Speed Ishnoks Core Flaylock (Utility and for Popping remotes) Fluxes Proto Cloak F\45 RE's (I hope the PG buff is enough for this.) This fit is made to Cause Chaos. At 11 m/s and dampened, I should be able to zoom around and harass targets. RE's are for Traps or quick DoT (Damage on Target. Think "Oh hey, two heavies on the point. RE TIME!) Fluxes are for removing equipment, and the Core is used to quickly remove remotes from Objectives. I can't hack super fast, but at 1.9 base hack (Translates to 5 second hack speeds) I can still get it off quickly. If not, I can escape if need be.

If a scrub wants to stop sniping because there's no more cozy little redline where I can't run up behind him and knife him in the neck, then good.

My Stance on eWAR: Sliding Scale of Range and Precision wrote: How Scanning works: Gal Logi's are made to Scan Proto Damped suits and higher, but suffer from loss of scan duration. They can't keep scans up for a period of time. This makes them adept at scanning objectives to sense Spec Ops, but not to keep them lit up, just to tell you that they are there. Gal Logi Focused is made to scan scouts. Once again, suffers from not being able to keep them lit up. Cal Scouts are made to hunt Spec Ops suits. One of these guys is made to ruin their day. However, they don't share their scans. They are simply made to HUNT them, not to turn a squad into hunters. Scouts are made to scan non-proto damped suits for extended periods of time. Some do it actively, some passively. Passive has the ability to scan 360 all the time, but lacks range. Active scans have a longer range, but have limited scan time and angle. Hopefully, this balances scans. You can't scan anything for forever. Each type of scanning has it's own pros and cons. Want 360 24/7? You lack range and precision Want to scan ANYTHING? You lack the ability to scan for duration and angle. Want good distance and duration? You lack precision and angle Lemme know if you wanna change anything. Scout Specialization wrote: Scout: Reconnaissance and Sabotage They get the old bonus to dampening back. They should be able to dodge PRO Scans PASSIVELY. Dampening will still be encouraged on the suit, for Caldari Scout and Gal Logi reasons. They can't cloak, but they don't need it. They have higher base Speed and passively dodge scans. The Scout is made to dodge scanning, but can be seen. This makes them more viable as players who stay away from combat and focus on recon and running from combat. Scout: 5% Reduction to Dampening, 5% Reduction to Active Scanner Cooldown Spec Ops Specialization wrote: Spec Ops: Infiltration and Assassination Gets the bonus to cloak, but has 40 base dB. This means that if they put on ONE complex Damp, they can get below Proto Scans (dB would be 27) They get combat based bonuses for infiltration and sabotage. When you want to get down and dirty in the city, THIS is the go-to fit. Basically, their job is to get into the city and cause havoc. Spec Ops: 15% Reduction to Cloak CPU/PG. (Bonus #2 Think of something that benefits the ideas of Infiltration and Assassination) Playstyle: For the Slayer Scouts. These frames have speed and cloaking, but no dampening. Their greatest enemies are the Cal Scouts and Gal Logi's as they should be the only suits able to scan them through the cloak. Everyone else is a target. How the two interact wrote: Scouts have a love hate relationship with them. They can't be picked up by the Spec Ops passive scans (Unlike some of the other Med Frames), but at the same time, all of them have trouble scanning THEM as well. One is electronically invisible, the other is VISIBLY invisible. Scouts will be able to outrun Spec Ops due to their higher base speed and due to the fact that they will most likely not be in the center of combat. Scouts will be dead if caught by a med frame if they don't run. Spec Ops have a fighting chance due to the cloak. They can still run, cloak, and set up a counter-attack. Scouts will have very little offensive capabilities due to them having only two sidearm slots. No Light Weapons. They are made to fill to entirely separate roles, and with how scanning works above, I believe that all of the scouts will have their own "Niche" to perform. Make sense? I'll work more on it tomorrow. Headed to Destiny, To Hell with CCP PSN: EVL_Elgost105 RIP Dust514 05/02/14 GG CCP

And you should get rid of that signature; its awful. Well ghost kaiser had a good point when he commented on it; its balanced because its a large PERCENTAGE bonus to a SMALL percent, making it very low. Also, i don't believe it would contribute to bullet weaving as there would be a speed cap which is what the soft cap is right now, and with my 3 KC min scout right now, i can't bullet weave (though I may just be plain terribad) The real idea behind this is that the min scout doesn't have to sacrifice speed to get dampening to levels that are on par with other suits. The real question is, is this overpowered or balanced? Yeah, the percent is large, but that's because it needs to be large to have any effect. We're talking about doing a percentage increase on modules that provide 5-12% bonus on stats that range from 7-8. The bonuses are terribly small. They need to be larger if you want them to serve a purpose. That being said: 50% is too high. That makes them give a 44.5% Increase to sprint speed at Proto. With 8.31 being the base, that makes it 12m/s Work in Reverse. Make 11m/s the desired. Divide by 8.31 to get the multiple needed to achieve with a single module. 1.32, So we need a single kincat to hit 32%. 32 / 12.7 = 2.52 = ~150% 150 / 5 = 30% Efficacy per level.

You already know this, of course, but you can typically tell whether or not a red-dot sees you by checking his orientation for change as you move around him. If Ghost is fast enough, he'll be fairly tough to track and hit at medium range, and very tough to pursue. If he's shielded enough, he can withstand a couple hits and recover fully while moving from cover to cover. If he's lucky enough, he'll notice and avoid altogether the targets who actively track his position. If he's clever enough, he'll only engage targets who are wholly unaware of presence or at significant disadvantage. I suspect Ghost is all of these, and I'm not surprised that he does well even though he's Minja-gimped. He's a d*mn good Scout. Just like Musturd and Moody. Imagine what these guys could do with good suits! I've talked to musturd and Moody, neither runs Min Scout as main in PC. They both switch to other scouts. I think I'm the last one left.

It feels very good in CQC with the RoF and Damage Shield Tanking is so much more viable.

Shield Tanking viability is my favorite thing in this new hotfix. My Min Suits are loving the ability to shield tank effectively (although it's mostly just using modules to get a good shield buffer with excellent speed and regen) Things I don't like: Freaking Federation AR's are already being spammed to high hell.

The PG is probably gonna happen through different means. I expect them to add fitting optimization to NK skill tree, and there's a chance they'll move PG extenders to highs as well. Maybe Logibro will dial back resource req's on NKs as well ... no telling. Anyhow, I'm sure not gonna force more ninja on the minmatar if the pros don't want it! If Moody and Ghost are in agreement with you, then that's that. The hacking bonus will be rewired as your "built-in" bonus and the nova knife bonus as your derived bonus. I will say that Moody and Ghost have both said separately that NKs aren't useful in PC due to hit-detection being unreliable in PC...that they really only use them in pubs. I took this to mean they'd prefer something else. So ... if Moody and Ghost both favor the proposed changes, might you be willing to change your mind? Nope knives are fine in PC Moody just has different roles and isn't able to run them regularly and I normally see ghost with a shotty. Ask appia knives are fine in PC she got me the other day when I was in my speedhack suit. Trust me knives work you just need a proper squad to distract while the minny flanks its in no way as easy as a shotgun scout but its very useful for taking heavies down while the main fireteam progresses forward. It comes down to the map as well some maps its just not smart to carry a knife but regardless I carry it anyways I hate running shotty in PC. I normally run ACR in PC, but OH brings tons of shotguns to the field normally, so when I'm in city, I bring one too. You only see me when I play OH, so that's why it seems that way. My General fit is ACR and Knives Knives ARE fine in PC, but I still think the changes are helpful. Right now if you want to use Knives in PC (At least against tanked heavies), you pretty much have to use the Min Scout. Ishnoks would take 4-5 full charge shots to kill a Tanked heavy without it, so it's not worth it for most. They would just use a shotgun. I also run my scout a lot differently than the others. I try to take the versatility of the Minmatar to heart. I have my speed/regen suit Stealth Suit Shield and Ferro Suit Hack Suit Etc.... I really try to make use of the versatile slot layout. Problem is though, the scans. I would really like to see passive scanning removed, but that won't happen. In it's place, I would like the ability to capitalize on my speed. Increased walk and sprint? Hell yeah. I NEVER stop moving in PC, and this combined with the high innate stamina regen on the Min Scout would do worlds to our overall speed. EDIT: I seem to have misinterpreted the meaning of this post @Shotty I still use knives in PC. The problem isn't the Knives. HD is not the issue. It's the fact that scans make it VERY difficult to knife, as you have to have the element of surprise. Anyone who knows you are coming will backpedal away from you and gun you down. We can Damp to high hell, but that removes all the versatility from the suit. And then we would have no speed or any other useful skills. I get what Musturd is saying now. If you do these changes, there would be no reason to run Min Scout for Knives. You would be better off using the Gal Scout or something else. Stack Two damps and a proto cloak to hide, and then just run Speed and Armor. You would only be a bit slower, but you deal almost the same damage and have more health AND regen.

All good feedback appreciated R Honestly I think not having shared scans is a horrible idea for many reasons. First of all it is completely unrealistic such as in the modern army if I saw an enemy soldier, I would report his position vocally which would be a passive scan for my fellow soldiers. We also have satelites to help have scans including infrared and other such things, so you would be making the tech level in Dust equivalent to....before caveman times? Mainly because a lot of war is done through communication and signals which can not be done well inside the game as it currently is. I can not spot an enemy and mark it upon the map for everyone to see, I also can not tell more then 6 people of the enemy even with vocal communications in the game. Now lets go into scanning and profiles within the game, scouts by far have the lowest scan profile which allows them to hide the most effectively they are also the ones who have the furthest passive scans and most precise passive scans. Meaning that you would be effectively making more people blind to them and shotgunning or being hit with whatever other weapon including a plasma cannon. Due to sound and positioning not being effectively put into the game when you fire of say...a plasma cannon this greatly limits what people can do to find scouts or even snipers. Basically you would be making the gallente scout the god of the battlefield or any scout that could keep the scan profile under what active scanners can do, which is not to incredibly hard. You would be making heavy and assault suits mostly blind and without intel as if they had no one on their team at all. In short, taking out passive scans entirely in the game, without reworking every function of scanning including, range, profile, and precision would be game breaking. Let me put it like this, in Dust 514 I can sneak up on someone currently in a multi ton tank, tell me how great the passive scans are when I can do that. Who are you and where did you come from?

But then aren't we just back where we were? With some Cal scout sitting in the corner letting his passives do the work but now he just uses the active scanner to light people up manually. He'd have to be using the focused because (I may be wrong) can't a single damp Gal get under the proto scanner? Though getting the "You have been scanned" warning before dying will be useful.

A fine example of (one element of) why I opposed the "one trick pony" equipment binding of the support/logistics role. It's very hard to make them both viable and not OP. Of course in the case of scans this is even more true while we struggle with the "all or nothing" scanning mechanics. I fully support the GalLogi active scans (as long as the present bonus remains) being meaningfully better than any other suit running those same active scans, and I like the idea of the radial in theory but as of now I couldn't advocate it in practice since there are some 'bunkered' objectives where it would be far to easy to put that GalLogi in a protective box thus keeping squad scans active almost constantly unless the position gets overrun. Which is unfortunately far to close to how things stand now with the CalScout and it's passive scans. 0.02 Cross Keep talking like this and you might find yourself a CPM That Crazy Minmatar Fanatic Stabbing Heavies for the Republic since Uprising 1.1 PSN: EVL_Elgost105

As for Minmatar, Ghost's suggestion would likely be the safest bet (PG rework for Codebreakers, KinCats, Knives, Shield Extenders -- or -- base PG increase for Minmatar Scout).

All you have to do to give assaults a place is to give people a REASON to run them. Right now, nobody runs them because anything an assault can do, a scout can do better (With more scans, cloaking etc.). This is the EXACT same problem scouts had a while back (Anything we could do, a logi could do better). The Assault : 593 HP Your Minmatar fit highlights a big problem with assaults that I feel would greatly improve balance if fixed - regen. Look at this assault-scout fit in comparison to your assault: Minmatar assault-scout HP Assault: 593 Scout: 578 (15 less) Shield recharge Assault: 38hp/s Scout: 40hp/s Shield delay Assault: 3.69s Scout: 4s Shield depleted delay Assault: 6.03 Scout: 5.95s Speed Assault: 5.3, 4.77, 8.77 Scout: 5.65, 5.09, 8.31 So, with the assault fitted for shield regen (as it should be in my opinion) these stats are similar (scout has better movement other than sprint). But the scout has lower profile, better scan range and precision, better stamina and stamina regen, armor repair, better hack speed, and a cloak. Compared to the assault's increased clip size. Basically, all the regen mods have done is bring the regen to the level of a scout. Why bother when you could just use a scout suit? Solution? Give assaults the same regen as scouts (or both somewhere in between). There is already a "reason" to run assaults, they are better at using rifles than other suits, but this regen disparity spoils their advantages by forcing assaults fit to play catch up with scouts, rather than enhancing their abilities. The difference between the EWAR and regen stat disparity between scouts and assaults is that EWAR is not a thing that assaults are designed to worry about. Regen however is something important to assaults as you have demonstrated in your example. Fixing this would make a huge difference in my opinion. Also removal of shared passive scans could work, but I haven't formed a strong opinion on this yet. It certainly seems like it would solve a lot of problems. I would be inclined to think the cooldown and scan angle restrictions on active scanners would balance Gal scouts when they take up Cal scouts scanning duties, but i'm no expert. I certainly agree with the fact that fits like these marginalize assaults. I just never fit my scouts like this, as they are far more effective when fit properly. That being said, It HAS advantages, it's just not enough to warrant switching. The Assault has most of it's HP in it's main buffer. It also has a T5 CR and T4 SMG, which are both affected by it's racial ability for projectile weapons. That thing can fire 168 bullets before it has to reload both guns. The real problem here ISN'T Regen on assaults. Scouts are SUPPOSED to have better regen than assaults. The problem is the Light Frames ability to armor tank. Gal Scout does it Amarr Scout does Min Scout CAN do it (I don't know why though) Cal Scout does it. However, that problem isn't easily fixed without percentage based HP modules or by removing slots. I would support buffing Assault HP over Buffing Assault Regen. Regen Should follow this progression: Scout - Assault - Logistics - Commando - Heavy Health should follow this progression : Heavy - Commando - Logistics - Assault - Scout Health AND Regen is a BAD thing (When combined on a scout) It's half the reason why the Cal Scout is so powerful right now. That being said, the 5/2 slot layout for the Cal assault should help mitigate that a bit. My fit for the Cal assault being a 5/2 has it running 552 shields, having 45 hp/s regen, and 3 / 4.5 delay and depleted. He is slow though, which presents the problem of fluxes. A cal scout should almost never get fluxed. Heck, while I'm at it, I'm gonna make the 4/3 Proto Min Assault Here it is Throw on that 8.7 sprint for the last low slot. I have enough CPU and PG for it as well. God, if I had that fit, I would go Proto Min Assault (with my scout) and never look back.

(2) add "scan attempt prevented" warning when passive scans fail. (3) perhaps also add an Amarr racial bonus: '%X reduction to spawn time per level' - - so that they would be able to challenge Minmatar speed hackers by spawning directly on a contested point before a min scout could hack it. Because this would never be abused. In order for this to work, you need to be able to spawn in under 3 seconds. To be useful, it needs to be around 1 second (Due to switching objectives and suits) 1 second spawns are a VERY bad idea. Imagine 6x Amarr scouts in tanked out armor spawning over and over on an objective, spamming links the entire time. They only have to keep the links up long enough for the big boys to spawn in. This could get ugly fast. I do however really like 1 and 2. If we make passive scanning happen in "Pulses" this could be more useful. Not only that, but it gives the dampening bonus to cloaks a bit of help. Scanned? Try cloaking. In a few seconds "Prevented" should pop up, and you disappear from radar. Were you killed? Was it a scout? Would make hunting through tac net a bit more interesting. That Crazy Minmatar Fanatic Stabbing Heavies for the Republic since Uprising 1.1 PSN: EVL_Elgost105

Funny how the least used (amarr) scout is asked to have a efficacy bonus but the ones making the proposals have none for there minmitar scout. No forced NK dmg mods to get the bonus NO forced Codebreakers to get there 2 hacking bonuses. Possibly because they are the only scout race that doesn't have the low slots available to do so? Cal gets to use high slots and have 4 Amarr get to use low slots and have 4 Gal gets to use low slots and have 4 Min gets to use low slots and only has 3 They can only use 1 slot due to having to avoid scans. Hence, they need the higher base passive to pull off their racial abilities with only 1 mod, as that is all the room they have. Also, Damage mods simply don't help enough to even be of help. Unless you want to give me a +5% bonus to Sidearm damage mod per level. In which case I will tear you to shreds with my SMG that now has 25% more DPS so the only change needed for min is moving codebreakers to high slot and its all fixed. there NK's need no mods to boost and they have 3 highs to boost hacking and 3 lows for dampeners. add in efficacy to the codebreakers and there you go all fixed for you with the same 'encouraging' efficacy you want all the other scouts to have. A good solution. However, why on earth would I run 3x dampeners? Please, just go 2x Damps, 1x Speed, PRO cloak, 2x Codebreakers, and a complex shield. RIP my PG. Good thing I love Flaylock Pistols.

I get throwing knives, and every time I get a "Precision Shot" (Crit hit or headshot probably) I reload my gun faster (It stacks) and if I get a knife precision kill, it resets the cooldown to zero.

Though, would it be possible for those bonuses to apply to all suits within that frame? So the Light one would affect Light's, Scouts, and the Pilot (if it existed) Rather than just affecting the scout. And Heavy frame skill for the frames, Commandos and sentinels? What I have planned is similar along those lines. Long term I'd like to reach a point where each frame is capable of unique fits that the Specialty suits are incapable of replicating, but without the specific role bonuses that Specialization offers. In order to do this, Frame suits need to have unique but powerful bonuses as well as slot and equipment setups that are different from their Specialty counterparts. This assures that the Frame Suits may be preferable over specialty suits in some situations, and also gives you a reason to level them beyond level III, as the skill would still benefit the specialty suit in some way.

Okay, Min scouts have trouble dampening to avoid scans right? But we cant be impossible to scan, otherwise we risk making Cal scouts useless. Remember the nerf to cloak duration? It's really hard to stay perma-cloaked now. Cloaking is done in WAVES now. So let's have the Min scout have a bonus to cloak damp! It solves the god awful problem of dodging scans, but in a way that Cal scouts can still hunt them, just in waves of opportunity. It can also open up some slots, as if you give the Min Scout the ability to fit only 1-2 damps, he still has fitting versatility! Combine with Min scout speed, the cloak can then be used for rapid insertion for the min scout. Dampened just long enough to do his job. Then he retreats.-á Gal scout has the ability to passively avoid scans, which plays into his role as a CQC scout (armor, gallente, regen). So make the Min scout similar! Similar to shields, it gets a bonus to cloak damp, allowing for powerful but short bursts of dampening. With a PG buff, we could see the code breaker, speed and damp scout have a role. Quickly able to run in under cloak, and hack a point or kill a target. When the hunter comes, damp and run. You can't stick around, but that's what the Gal is for. Thoughts?

Dump the Knives bonus, let the suit actually do something useful. Main Bonus would be bonus to cloak dampen Second bonus would be to hack speed (Base or module, whatever) Speed is fine where it's at. It's only vital if you can't dodge scans. Buff to PG / Module re-work included should let the suit finally be able to do it's job in PC. Able to quickly move up and hack objectives under stealth, or be able to infiltrate and assassinate underneath the Cal Scout scans. With changes to Cal Scout scans, I would insist that a Proto Cloak and Dampen beat 2x Precision scans while active. Cloak + 2 Damps does the same for 3x Precision. Classic setup would then be 1x Codebreaker, 1x Speed, 1x Damp and cloak. Run 2x Shields and 1x Recharge, Pro Primary, ADV sidearm and ADV or Basic equip to back up.

There are many ways you could get creative about minjas.. hell everything. But here you guys are working with CCP Ratattatitatat on hotfixes that accomplish nothing. It's like taking a car that is totaled and putting different air fresheners in it to see if it is finally acceptable to drive. Even if it smells a little bit better, it's still totaled. But it is what it is. That being said- There are only a few aspects of this game that actually give it some desirability for most people to play, and when it comes to minja playerss it is knifing. When I seldomly load up dust, I only knife because it's the only thing that makes the game fun for me. Without a knifing bonus, the minja is DOA. PC is pubs just with the civil war reenactment larper level of participation. Most of CCPs customers play pubs. To cater to a small group of people who exploit the game is a bad move. Every time. And for this whiny elitist band of people to whine about one weak ass suit getting 3 bonuses vs 2 and how many modules it equates to blah blah fuckety blah.. boo **** hoo. It's painfully easy to eyeball evaluate the strategic importance of each bonus. This is all exacerbated by the lack of confidence of the developer in their product.

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 Hmm.. Looking at how the slot layouts and bonuses work, I like the way this is headed. If you want max precision, you go Amarr, if you want decent precision with excellent range, you go Cal. I also noticed that you made the PRO cloak a 15% reduction instead of 10% Using that number..... My min Scout with 2x Damps and PRO cloak has a profile of 15.71. This rounds up to 16 (Stupid rounding) I can dodge 1x Amarr Scans, and 2x Cal Scans (3x rounds up to 16, and tie goes to scanner) 3x Damps and PRO cloak and I have a profile of 13.47. Rounds up to 14. I can dodge everything. Normally, I would be saying "This doesn't change anything" but since Min Scout gets codebreakers to high, I can still do my job. I can Speed hack AND be invisible, meaning that I can get onto the objective undetected and hack. What fit's will I run? 2x Damp Min Scout: 1x Shield 2x Codebreaker 1x Speed 2x Damp Hacks in 3.81s, dodges most scans while cloaked. The 3x Damp will be the same, except just with 3x damps and 3x codebreakers. I suspect that Cal Scouts will still be slightly more popular, but Amarr scouts will have a role as point defense specialists. They can Tank both precision and armor and be tough to take down. Granted, we can walk under his scans, but he still has a huge HP advantage. Caldari will be more popular due to those 87-120m scans. This guy will LOCK DOWN the city for everyone not running damps. So scouts damp and everyone else has to duke it out with the wall hack on. No reason to run active scanners anymore. This guy does it better. Scanners will solely be used for the focused to scan scouts. eWAR is slightly better for scouts, but still f'd up overall. How I Imagine I look when running Minmatar Scout PSN: EVL_Elgost105

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. Not entirely true. Min Scout's MAIN role in PC is hacking. We can still do that. Anyone who tries to range amp their min scout is loco. We don't have the precision or the range to do so properly. 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.

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.

Here we are balancing E-War for a 3rd time and the gallente is going to end up OP in some way or whatever scan scout is going to end up OP. I hate to say it but I miss the days of the scannerinas.

Soooooo, in your earnest opinion, based on the document, post Charlie situation in a nutshell? Seems to be. As a Minmatar Scout: This works pretty damn well. I like the numbers. Min won't be left out in the corner. I would like to ask that cloak profile gets normalized as well. Better duration is reason enough to run a PRO cloak, but when push comes to shove with fittings, the option to downgrade cloak and maintain profile is very useful. It also saves that precious PG that I need (I still say this because I don't know how MUCH PG the Min scout is getting.)

"Don't yell and get mad when someone says you're wrong. If you don't like what they are saying, improve your argument." The barbershop is not a place for people with thin skin. We routinely call people out on things we think are stupid, and spend that time debating and improving our own arguments. Over time, since we have so many different viewpoints and arguments, we generally can boil down to a group consensus on things that we know are the best for scouts. How do we know that they are the best? Because we've argued about it for about a week and found that most people agree with certain aspects of a change. This thread does nothing but get better with time. Hence why Rattati came here to discuss scout buffs. Because we have been arguing and debating about scout playstyles and buffs for over a year. We have put far more thought and effort into this than anything else on the forums. His stopping here first was a very smart move. How I Imagine I look when running Minmatar Scout PSN: EVL_Elgost105

Magic is completely different but there are sooooo many spells, like 10 times more spells they are amazing. But the game works way different than Oblivion and Skyrim Also way more weapons, there are spears, throwing knives & stars, a million different kinds of swords, canes but they're called staffs, clubs with nails, the weapons are amazing. The monsters are hands down better than skyrim. Giant reptiles and floating jelly fish (Netches). You can also pretty much play skyrim with the Slothsiem island. Got draugers and bears (snow bears are magical, for some reason) and these little ***** goblins that ride hogs that can really ** you up. But a great game.

Not as great as the Icarian scroll, but strong enough to let me jump anywhere without acrobatics. Illusion buffed my stealth, Drain Health 50pts for 1s was used as a finishing blow (Drops their health by 50pts for 1s. They regain it 1s afterwards, but if they have less than 50 health, they get insta-killed.) So many exploits if you were smart.

Hlaalu are foreigner friendly and focus on thief attributes. They are all about making that loot baby loot which could take me very far, but I feel like their area is just way too familiar with me, like I've been there a thousand times. The Telvanni house is all about power and wizards. They are super racist, it's always hard to get good prices from them because they start out hating you. They have my favorite cities and armor (squid helmets!) though and the land is full of creepy ass **** to kill you. The 3rd house is Redoran, they are the honorable group and favor good ol' warrior. I was never too familiar with this house but I learned an interesting thing about them: the big domes in the center of their towns are actually the shells of the Emperor Crab, an extinct megacrab. So I joined up Redoran because they specifically said that they like spears and medium armor. Now I'm trying to find some herder who lost his guar but I can't find her because LOLMorrowind has no destinations you have to use your journal which tries to give you directions. For instance: Go up the road take a road until you hit the hills, go west.

Killed the mage before the bonewalker could do too much cursing. Eat bonewalker. The next guy was like a spellsword. . . . . ** destruction spells. Dear Bojo I told you that Morrowind is hard mode. Level up well and save often, because you have no idea what will be thrown at you. Always make sure your gear is in tip top shape, and NEVER be scared of running away. Sometimes you need to put aside a quest for later. Hlaalu is the best house IMO, but then again, I was a Dark Elf Spellsword. Stealth came naturally to me, and I used magic to augment it.

Yeah, one of the things I was disappointed with was the lack of any real way to be sneaky in Pvp The crouch to drop off radar has already been mentioned, but there's also going to be class specific abilities for proper stealth/invisibility on the Hunter/Bladedancer subclass. If the invisibility is akin to the clacked Fallen mobs then could be quite interesting in PVP, particularly when coupled with specialisation in knifing. http://destinynews.net/bladedancer-sunsinger-defender/ I loved it when I got the Komarov helmet that gives you faster melee.

You can only recall one part. A tall figure with a golden mask led you among the dead as through a wedding celebration. You heard many voices but no lips moved. You strained to breathe, but your chest didn't move. The tall figure spoke with each figure as he passed among them, laughing and joking, as if they were alive, but they made no reply. You tried to cry out, but without breath, your tongue fluttered in vain. That's right bitches! I've completed the first of many Blades quests! In Morrowind the Blades are very much alive and kicking. Caius Cosades, my boss, had me investigate the Nevarine prophecy and the Sixth House. However in order to learn about these, I had to perform a favor for the expert. I had to go to Arkngthad and retrieve a Dwemer puzzle box. I've done this quest before but.....I ran into the inevitable glitches of old school games! I tried to walk up the path to Arkngthad but everytime I tried I fell through the ground and hit an invisible wall. It took me foreeeeeeever to get around the invisible wall. Usually there is a conjurer protecting the bridge, and as I made my way around the invisible wall, I was glitching out. I was in mid air above Arkngthad doing battle with a conjurer and his skeleton, just hovering in mid air. After I defeated him I made my merry way onto the ground and into Arkngthad. It's really easy now that I'm level 13 or so. It's why I waited to do the Blades quests. Well I took easy care of the bad guys and I remember very well where to box is, after spending minutes upon minutes previous years ago looking for it. I used Alsmivi Intervention to teleport to the Balmora temple, to avoid having to deal with potential invisible wall problems again. Now I'm off to sell all these dwemer coins in my pocket! A note: Honestly I really like how Skyrim mixed up the Dwemer. The feel of Dwemer cities in Skyrim is just awesome. However I could not compare the two. Dwemer cities in Morrowind, if run on skyrim engine and of course had the time and money to go into some more detail, Morrowind Dwemer cities could have potential to rival Skyrim, but if you were just to plainly compare the two anyone would choose the Skyrim Dwemer. Peace yo, Bojo PS: I found a Dwarven Spear and got super excited! But then I compared the stats to my Silver Spear and it was worse. Damn it! Silver spear may hit harder, but look at the durability. Silver weapons degrade REALLY fast. If you want decent lifespan, keep the dwemer. I'm still ironing out the kinks of the modding I've done. I'll update my diary later.

Completely remove the visual cloak, instead think of it as an active equipment you need to have on in order for your skill bonus to work. Then think about my proposal. Stop thinking the cloak is there just to provide visual camo, It's much more than that. The visual cloak is just a "bonus feature" I would wear cloak if it dropped by profile to 15. Who gives a **** that it makes me blue. To me: The cloak is a active dampener. If I stand still, I'm hard to see. I don't trust it to cover me when running. I just go the long way around. Back to pre-1.7, where we succeeded by flanking and not being seen rather than cloaking. I like it this way. However, I still want a few changes to the cloak. I want the cloak to make me flat out INVISIBLE. Then throw on a lengthy cloak and de-cloak time. Make it a tool for insertion and retreat, but not rapidly. Once you are behind enemy lines, you should stay hidden by using scans to AVOID targets, not by using the cloak. That's just me though.

If you really want to get into some good psychology that is well written, not to dry, and very informative, I would read "Thinking Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahnemen. It is fantastic and really sheds a light on the way we think, and why. I also recommend Blink by Malcolm Gladwell. I really like anything he writes, but that is just me. Just finished reading "Spy the Lie" which was co-written by Philip Houston, Michael Floyd, and Susan Carnicero (Former CIA Officers) An excellent book on how to detect deceit, and how to learn the right questions to ask when trying to find the truth. For Example: If you think that someone has stolen some money from your house, you don't go up and ask them "Hey, what did you do with my money?" You phrase it as a question with implied meaning. "Is there any reason why so-and-so would say that they saw you in my house last week?" There's more detail than that, but it has a really cool system and methodolgy on guiding conversations in the right direction. It's interrogation without them knowing about it. Since they don't feel threatened, they are more open to the procedure. Picked it up at Barnes and Nobels for like $10. Worth the read.

It also uses the OJ Simpson case to show how asking the wrong questions can be downright detrimental to the process. They also give you the Jerry Sandusky case and Congressman Anthony Weiners case to close the book. They just say "Read this and come to a conclusion." Afterwards, they go and show you their own report. It's scary how effective it is. You read this and all these red flags go up, and you notice where the investigator asks the wrong questions. You think about how you would handle it. It's a great book. It's really cool being able to watch interrogations/examinations on the news and to pick up on what they're doing and notice deceit when it happens. The book also stresses that it's not fool-proof. It really goes out of it's way to tell you that nothing in this book will amount to "Seeing x and saying "That's it, cuff him, we've got this bagged".

I actually have cited that study for some of my own work, and used it for some theories. sigh The last real experiment in psychology. I'm very much hyper-critical of social sciences mostly because now they're more statistical models than real science's facts. real science: repeated testing shows our experiment to have the same conclusion every time, because we have a control and limit outside factors social science: repeated testing shows it's 70% accurate which is good enough to make accusations into the nature of this subject. I have include no way to distance myself from personal biases in these tests but it's good enough to pubish a paper on it and call myself an expert. Ethically that study was over the border at the time and that is why he pulled the plug part way through. It would defiantly not fly now. So many of the so called solid findings are not attainable now, because of ethical limits. (note I am not saying this limits are good or bad) Ethical trends have also played a large part in moving social sciences towards statistical basis, which I agree is easily manipulated. Sad that manipulations like that happen, but it is not always intentional. In the end Social Sciences remain loosely sciences in part because the social aspect is mutable and do not lend themselves to "hard science" which in turn has trouble working in a mutable environment where variables are to numerous to control.

I presented a fix that brings down the spamming ability, while also bringing the TTK in line with the other Proto Weapons. My fix encourages placing the shots in accurate bursts, rather than trying to fire off as many shots as possible, in an effort to drop the target before overheat kicks in (and to keep TTK as low as possible) FA's Stabber Extraordinaire Minmatar Enthusiast Explosions and Bulletstorm?

It's a huge step up. I actually think it's one of the best scout suits for outside point assault now. Since it has a great base hack speed, it's fantastic for taking points. I can be damped and hack a point in very little time. I have a suit made that places links outside of the point, cloaks up, and then slowly moves up. I wait until I see my chance, and then sprint up to the objective and hack it. Once the hack is off, they are on the defense. It takes so long to counter hack, that it doesn't matter if I get killed. I can spawn back in and kill them on the re-hack. It's great for forcing people to pull people back to defend objectives. However, it doesn't compare to the Gal scout for City Assault. Gal scout still has more armor and staying power. It's by no means as powerful a suit as the Gal Scout, but it is viable in PC again, which is a HUGE step up.

You get an extra 18.04% from 3 damage mods or 24.3% from 2 damage mods and a Minmatar commando bonus. As an Alpha Strike Damage weapon with only 3 shots in the clip the difference in damage isn't enough to change the number of shots to kill. The Bolt Pistol has a faster rate of fire and higher damage than the Breach Scrambler Pistol. Ghost speaks of making the Bolt Pistol OP. Only really terrible aspect of it is 6 shots per clip. Really showing ignorance about the sidearms. "I don't use it but..." is not a line you should speak, that's basically a warning to yourself to hold your tongue on the topic. Ghost only sounds accurate because he's got IWS his opposite who is just an embarrassment to humanity. Leither wrote: I know you guys were saying something about Uplinks but can't talk about them Sad to see Leither take that stance. Iron Wolf Saber thought he had a good idea, and spoke to other CPM1 members, and they decided they should talk about it to CCP before talking about it with the players. . . the hallmark of being representatives right there. I don't think the bolt pistol would be OP made magnum style. Space Magnum style makes it a skill shot weapon. At 6 shots (148 damage a shot) this gives it 888 damage a clip. This is enough to kill a target and wound another. Couple this with the lengthy reload (2.7s is a LONG time in CQC) and I think it balances quite well. Remember what I said about sidearms? I believe that they should be just as deadly as primaries, but lack the ability to deal with multiple targets. They are "Last Resort" weapons. They can also fill a niche that the primary doesn't, which is once again, incentive to make them just as deadly in 1v1's but lack the ability to engage multiple targets. As for Ignorance: I'm not ignorant in any sidearm. I have every single one to ADV at least, and have used them all at some point or another. I simply gave my observations about how I thought they could be improved. Once again, I NEVER say that "No this is right, I'm right and you're wrong". I didn't go on there to turn it into my personal soapbox. I simply go up and give my opinion on the matter. As for the Minmando: Have you ever used the Minmando Appia? I know it doesn't look like much on paper, but I notice a big difference in the field. I much rather prefer my Minmando over my MinAssault for AV. Even with the mobility of the Assault. Also, give me some credit. I really don't appreciate you saying that "I only sound smart because IWS is an idiot". Really makes you come off the wrong way, if you catch my drift Why don't you get on Biomassed Appia?

If I even get a single swarm shot at me, I'm gone. If I get hit by three or more swarms, I have to module to survive another shot or two, so I often just don't let it get to that point. Since all AV is explosive based, I tend to just tank the shots till I get out of range, using the shield booster if I get too low. The hardener is saved for taking on tanks that survive the first volley, or for when things get REALLY hairy. My tank mainly ambushes LAV's and Other Tanks, but can also suppress infantry at range with my gunners or by "Sniping" with my Missile turret (I have gotten several kills from over 200m with the turret. You just tap shot it and get direct hits for over 400 damage) This thing doesn't make infantry run for the hills, but it's great at removing other vehicles from the field, giving way for Blaster Tanks or LAV's and Dropships. It also acts as a turret platform, as I run two Rail Turrets on it. I can suppress infantry at range with gunners (Which I've actually had in my tank a few times. Most are surprisingly faithful in the tank, staying inside and targeting infantry and vehicles when they see them) STRENGTHS: If played right, it's hard to kill. I'm not going to be tanking HUGE amounts of damage, but I can survive small bursts of combat practically forever (Shield tank working as intended IMO) The gun turrets are great. I would love to see tanks made this way. Make the main Turret terrible for anti-infantry, but make the small turrets great against Infantry and decent against LAV's. This encourages teamwork with a gunner to make a tank a true infantry support unit. WEAKNESSES: Poor anti-infantry capabilities. You gotta be at range, as missiles are terrible point blank. This is a fantastic anti-vehicle fit though. You pop almost everything in the game that doesn't have a hardener going in one volley. Top Speed. So many Madrugers have escaped due to their nitro boosters. They tank the volley with hardeners and then GTFO to their redline. Personally, I'm fine with that. I play this tank opportunistically, rather than a straight up "Slayer" tank per se. I'll field any more questions if you have any. Learning more about this every day.

I was chatting with a friend, and he had an idea. He was fine with my cloak idea, but he didn't like the idea of someone gaining the "Perfect escape tool" while still benefiting from passive scans. Interesting idea. You are either visible and scanning, or invisible and blind. Can't have both. Thoughts? Being that I would be more worried of someone seeing me shimering away in my escape I would say no. less visibility is no way to fix when we can already achieve being invisible to tac-net, aim assist, and cheveron tracking with near invisibility when not moving from all but those smart enough to sweep weapon side to side looking for reticle to turn orange. I am on the side the cloak works too good now. if you want full invisibility then make the trade of dampening. You should not have both. We nearly have both now. This assumes that cloak grants full invisibility, having no shimmer while escaping. I want a version that sacrifices all offensive powers (eWAR and Shooting) but gives you full invisibility and dampening. The trade-off is battery (of course) and the inability to quickly switch between the two. FA's Stabber Extraordinaire Minmatar Enthusiast Explosions and Bulletstorm? Count me in!

Judge also made a youtube video "illustrating" how swarms that seem to explode into thin air and not ever hit the ADS they're chasing really are hitting. I've flown dropships away from swarms and taken no damage. I've fired swarms, watched them chase the dropship and explode 100m behind the vehicle, switched to my sniper rifle and seen through the scope/target intel that no, in fact, no damage was taken. All the fancy flying and slowing down just long enough to let one or two of the missiles catch up to him once he was well out of harm's way and could eat a volley made for good theatrics, but doesn't change the fact that either swarms need a buff (missile speed) or ADS need a nerf. Instead, through his cult of personality/leetness/whatever, he managed to lobby for a Python buff AND get himself elected to the CPM. gg Judge. But you're full of ****. Okay, for those who don't know, I'm learning to fly. It's going well now, last two days SUCKED. I'm managing to get the feel of flying down and also learning how to respond to various threats. Have a Dropships perspective on AV. Forges: Stay Away. Don't even bother. It takes so many missiles to kill them they aren't worth your time. Forges create a definite "No Fly Zone". You get hit by one, you turn on afterburner and GTFO. Swarms: Annoying. Kill them if there is only 1. More than one? GTFO. On my ADS (Python with ~3000 shields and Afterburner) I can safely take a single clip of swarms. After that, I'm either into armor or REALLY LOW on shields (Depends on the suit. Commando's routinely put me into armor and earn the Stay Away tactic). Once again, best defense is to afterburn and GTFO. Rail Tanks: It depends. Rail's in the redline make a no-fly zone in 300m of where they are. I can't kill them, and most can 2-3 shot me. So I just stay away. If they are on the field, I fly just above them and harass with missiles. The main goal is to weaken and distract them for other tanks to eliminate, or to push them into the redline. Blaster Tanks: Same practice really, except you have to be more careful. Blasters are far more effective against my DS. Plasma Cannon: Kill em. Reload time takes too long, and with good circle strafing you are pretty hard to hit. I've been driven off by good shots though. Okay, so you might get a feel of how the ADS is now. It really is an opportunistic killer. Think "Sky Shark" and you have the right idea. I kill what I can and run from what can hurt me. Strong AV nets will make me completely useless. Really. 2 Swarms and 1 Forge can make my life living hell. Especially if they are determined. Those matches where you see ADS dominate? I've found out why. It really is a team effort. I have performed best in an ADS with a Tank on the ground, A squad mate running AV and everyone else slaying. Tank keeps away strong vehicle threats and AV allows me to fly without fear of other ADS'. Infantry can then deal with any other AV. In a team effort, the ADS can basically roam the battlefield in impunity and severely WRECK the opposition. Personal thoughts on AV strength: They feel fine right now. Every single one of the above can be a threat and has a definite chance of killing me if I DON'T run away. Swarms always force me out if on a suit that can survive more than 2 missile shots. Personal thoughts on dropships: They feel fine as well. They need to nerf the arfterburner though. It's a great escape tool, but it has a 10s cooldown. 7.5s with max skills. It's far too easy to quickly run away, regen, come back, and then run away again. Afterbuner needs a cooldown nerf. Badly. Also: Please note that I am only lvl 3 shield modules and lvl. 1 missile. This all might change with better skills and turrets. Will update as I go along. EDIT: Side note: I completely hate the idea of "Sky Tanks". That's dumb and bad. The only dropship that should be hard to take down is a properly fit transport DS, which is more focused on occupant survival than it is on offense. We might see transport DS more, as the base DS is getting an HP buff in delta, and they are bringing back small turret splash. Two small blasters on a DS will be VERY effective at clearing out the LZ for an infantry drop. I would love to see this in action.

Ghost Kaisar Fatal Absolution General Tso's Alliance 6861	Posted - 2014.08.31 01:34:00 - [1194] - Quote Okay, I'm really excited about Delta Read Here: CCP Rattati wrote: Dear players Weapons Sidearms - rebalance in a similar way as rifles were, ranges, requirements and damage, mainly through buffing and tuning existing weapon behaviour (reducing ion seize, ROF on scrambler, flaylock power and blast radius, to name a few ideas) Add all Miltia Sidearms and Miltia HMG to Market Snipers - We simply cannot have snipers so far away in the redzone they cannot be touched, while also being immune to countersniping. However, we also want to improve the Improved headshot damage, decreased range, improved damage. We have been studying Domination maps, and some of the farthest redline sniper spots that can camp the Objective to get a good gauge of the situation. There cannot be a risk free way of playing the game, for each role there must be a counter. Swarms - efficiency against assault dropships needs to be improved fairly, there are a few ways (increased speed, nerf afterburners, increased lock on timers, probably not lock on range nor damage). We will buff normal dropship ehp to make up for their shortcomings. Rifles - tweaks to Scrambler, Assault Scrambler and Assault Rifles (plasma) Assault HMG buffed, burst HMG needs a slight tune down Dropsuits Minmatar dropsuits - small ehp buff across the board Turrets Small Rail ROF reduced Large Blaster splash reduced Small Blaster splash increased, maybe range increase Vehicles HAV inertia increased so switching from forward to backward movement is more realistic, and reduce fuel injector boost to speed. Shield based HAV and DS buffed ehp, Gunnlogi and Myron Other Damage profiles - Projectiles (Combat Rifles, etc) to -15%, 15%, or -20/+20 from -5%, +10%, plus fixing turret damage profiles to match intended design Shield Modules - 15% or so CPU reduction of Energizers, Regulators and Rechargers Nanite Injectors - heal same amount of shields as armor, yes quite a buff Nova Knife optimization skill added Add new Officer Light Weapons as well as key missing FW items to the LP Store Big ones first. Minmatar HP buff. Yes this includes the Scout! Flaylock and Ion Pistol buff! Nova Knive OPTIMIZATION FINALLY. I am actually behind the CR damage profile. Maybe now it won't just devour everything, and people will stop b*tching at me using Minmatar tech. Shield Module CPU nerf is good. I think I might create a scout made for speed and regen with less emphasis on stealth. Missing LP items. Finally. AFTERBURNER NERF. See above post. This is the main change that should be made, possibly with increased lock on. The Dropship changes I mentioned. Word of warning, shield based HAV's could be very hard to take down with these changes. I don't think the Shield HAV needs an HP buff. Hopefully the scrambler gets fixed so that it doesn't become spam city. I wonder what AR buffs they are thinking of? They seem to be in a pretty good spot to me... Anyways, I'm excited. Anyone else? FA's Stabber Extraordinaire Minmatar Enthusiast Explosions and Bulletstorm? Count me in!

Protip: Afterburners They really do need a cooldown nerf. 10s is WAAAAY too short. I lose more ADS to ramming and RDV's than anything else now. I only get killed by AV if I'm stupid enough to try and poach a kill when they have tons of AV in the area.

The people that use the item are saying the same thing: The range cannot be reduced without hindering a significant number of sniping locations, that the Forge Gun is better than the Sniper Rifle 100% of the time within 300m, and that the damage has to be capable of killing someone with a headshot.

This shouldn't be rocket surgery. For the TAC, more accurate during follow up shots, less recoil etc so you have to land multiple shots in quickly The charge would be something that OHKs suits under 600hp with a headshot? Basically thinking of snipers in other games. You have the quick firing snipers and the single shot snipers. They need to have a tac variant that deals around 100 damage and has a 10 round clip. Give it a good headshot multiplier and make the sights settle quickly, allowing it to function as a DMR. Would be perfect to sit back at around 100-150m and make everyone think twice about leaving cover.

This is after so many decryptions I think I'm almost at level 8 with him now. I've decided not to bother going with a Faction and just go all out Vanguard and use the Crucible bounties for XP (I decided this after wasting 5 bounties on Dead Orbit). Went back to the Tower before logging out, talked to Xur or whatever his name is... I'm short of getting the exotic warlock gloves by 1 freaking coin... facepalm Still, not bad for a days work. Tomorrow I'll be running the strike playlist and knocking off all the bounties. RF2 for the fire team (PS4) if you're interested in some crazy PvE challenges (recommend you're 22 or above). I tried playin gDUST today. Got in 1 match that was already in progress then spent 30 minutes trying to get into another to no avail. So I switched back to Destiny and now there's a connection issue there. Clearly the gods of videogames do not want me playing today. I got a Legendary Engram from Crucible. I was so excited. Took it to the Cryptarch and it was a warlock helm. ****. Got another Legendary Engram from crucible and it was a Rare scout rifle. Got another Legendary Engram and it was a Strange Coin. Finally picked up the Legendary Hand Cannon. Bought the Hunters' chest piece from Xur. Bumped me from 23 to 24. I'm 19 rep points away from being able to buy gear with crucible marks... and that connection error!! Vanguard is dumb. I can use Strikes to collect Vanguard Marks but only the vanguard vendor accepts them. So I feel like I'm wasting their rep when I use it for the one I'm building up. Yeah, solo'ing Strikes is so easy in Destiny. Every single map as at least 1 exploitable location in it that makes you basically invincible. Playedin Cruicible with 4 FA guys last night and Symbiotic forks. lol, Symb is my only PSN friend from that group and I saw him on and joined the fireteam. I joined an in-progress match on the other team. I got like 6 enforcer medals from that match becuase it was so one-sided. Then We all played as a single group and it was just mean. i was a bit embarrassed, of the 5 or six games I played with them, fussioncommando actually did better than me in 1 of them.

Only idiots walk into the backs of people expecting to be fine when they turn around. I've seen enough jump-turns to know better. Counter-strafe saves lives. I can understand why you want an insta-killing CQC weapon. It would make sense, but you need to realize the implications. It would be FOTM. TTK is king in this game and you know it. How long before everyone goes and puts it on their scout because you no longer have to worry about Heavies? Heavies are SUPPOSED to be tanky. What is the point of a point defense suit with no mobility OR dampening if you can still be insta-killed by stealth? There would be no point to the suit. It's the perfect hard counter.

Uprising was initially incredibly hard for scouts, so Shotty kept track of Kills, Deaths, and KDR to demonstrate how poorly off the class was. After six months of being ignored by those then overseeing Dust, Shotty got fed up, closed the Registry, and committed forum seppuku. That list is now there for posterity.

It only took 17 pages but I think we are finally moving forward. Magnus Amadeuss wrote: But I do understand how the original is flawed now. Oh I do though, after running the numbers, I realized the BIG problem is that scouts are just too damn good at scanning. Caldari scout scans 3,000,000 cubic meters @ 20 dB while cloaked/firing/whatever Amarr scout does 2.6 million @ 18 dB... Proto flux scanner with 200m range? less than 200,000 @ 21/28 dB. That is absolutely rediculous. You guys turned me on to it with your constant coincerns about "permascan". The fact of the matter is that permascan now is about 15-30 times worse than it ever was before, we just don't see the warning that we are being scanned anymore. Listen, I run an ak.0 pretty often, I KNOW how ridiculously easy it is to get all over the map (a good thing) and sneak up on people with no effort (uh....) and OHK without even a fight (horrible). I can admit that because I like every single suit. I can easily go every single match with 0-1 deaths for 14-25 kills just using a scout. That is a problem. Thats also why I don't use it all of the time, it is boring. Stop. Stop right there. If you are being scanned in a scout suit, you're doing it wrong. Damps and cloaks make it so that you can survive. Hell, my Minmatar Scout NEVER goes into a fight without 2 damps and a cloak. We made scanning that way to stop brick tank scouts remember? Now you HAVE to run damps and a cloak if you don't want to be scanned. As for the other suits? They can run damps too. They might not be able to dodge the scans of an Ak.0 with 2x precision, but then again THEY SHOULDN'T. The MAIN problem with eWar right now is that it's binary. Detected / Invisible. We need scan falloff. BAD. But it will never come. Side Note: Why are you comparing a piece of equipment to a SUIT made for scanning? One that has an 8x multiplier on it and limits your playstyle, over one that can litterally be put on any suit? We've seen it before. If you make Handheld scanners as good (or better) than scouts, you won't see scouts (Remember the REAL perma-scan days? Every scout buy the Gal was forced out of PC). Recon is a powerful battlefield tool, and right now, scouts are the best way to get it. Also, why are you using the flux? Go focused or go home if you want to scan scouts. I really can't emphasize it enough man, there are HUGE gaps in your arguments. These problems range from just using the wrong tools for comparisons to just faulty meta-logic. Please don't report me for disagreeing with you. Let's try and be civil this time. I got kicked out of the State War Academy for jury-rigging a contact nade launcher to my Rail Rifle WINMATAR!

I myself am thinking about throwing on a scanner instead of REs on a fit to see how that plays out. One thing I am hopeful for is that the reduction of the sprint glitch may make a speed scout more viable. Unfortunately, I think that will favor a Gal scout who can throw on two damps, beat an Amarr scout, and throw on two Complex Kincats and some shield tank. There are a lot of possibilities, but many are not good. Min scouts will be dead. Mark my words. That is my fear, but it can't be worse than Alpha to Charlie. True. Now we have a choice--be permascanned, or be non-viable. Oh wait, those two are the same thing. NVM. 2 damps and a cloak is all you need. Most of my fits run that setup, and I can still run speed or hack mods. Granted, Uber-Speed hacks will still be VERY hard to pull off, but Breakers need to move to high slots anyways.

How can those scouts scan if they are also cloaked? How can those scouts survive being within range of a heavy without being cloaked? I can see a number of different circumstances, and I really don't know what is going to play out, but if anything, active scanners will be more of the help than passive shared from friendly scouts. Passive Scanning on a scout will be dead. Sucks, but our main strength will then be in DODGING the scans (Like back in the old days) Remember, Active scans will still be a priority thing. Med frames will be scanning the front lines to keep track of targets. Damped scouts will dodge these scans, and sneak BEHIND their lines. Nobody really scans their own backfield, because it's a waste of resources. Scans are better spent in high traffic areas due to long cool down. Meanwhile, your TEAM will be scanning the area ahead of you, lighting up all non-scout frames. You will use these scans to position yourself, then de-cloak and wreck havoc. While they turn around to deal with you, frontlines push up, taking advantage of a flank opportunity. Bullet Hell and Duct-Tape? Count me in! FA recruits get free officer BPO's. Enlist today.

I honestly think that your own personal Proximity Scanner will be the best tool.

And I really started to think of them as regulars. Anyway, back to "Gallente weather the storm and Minmatar get swept away in it." I think Ghost is really missing the point. Decloaking to use an active scanner and re-cloaking is the same as just decloaking for access to passive scans and re-cloaking. As someone that would rather play solo than play with other people I don't have a mic or when I refuse to play with people that don't have mics, I get your point Rex. My School of Thought is: hack first, kill second. Even though I want to play kill-first hack-second I just can't leave an undefended null cannon console alone... unless I'm not in a scout suit. The effectiveness of a Min-Scout is going down. Looking back I completely missed that. Granted, I run ZERO eWAR on my scout. Hell, I don't even have Precision or Range to V. I just sit back damped and carefully observe to see who is on the point. And then wait until they overextend. Hack the point and defend. Cloaking while moving is dumb because of the false sense of security (In high traffic areas), so I just have gotten used to the old style of dodging scans with damps, and using speed and cover to my advantage. I would start bringing an active scanner to augment my horrid eWAR by letting me see what is on a point beforehand, rather than cloaking and walking up and seeing far too much for me to handle.

I'm guessing you read my huge freaking post in the eWAR discussion? As I said, it's not perfect. I typed it up in like 30 minutes after having those thoughts. I tried to make sure that scouts had a combat role, and that is was mostly in taking advantage of better dampening or precision (Either offensively or defensively). I'm not sure about how the numbers would work but I share the same sentiment. When it comes to backstabbing and shenanigans, scouts should still be the go-to choice across the board. That doesn't mean assaults can't do, they just can't do it BETTER (i.e. they would easily be detected by a well fit scout, and the assault would still be in the dark). Think of it like this: Damped Med Frames hunt undamped med frames.

This being said, we need to make it so that you can't stack eWAR and survive ability. Right now, it's the scouts eWAR on TOP of their ability to have large amounts of health that make them so powerful. If you limit HP, you can limit their ability to engage groups of targets easily. For example: with a 343 shield Min Scout, I have no problems taking a 2v1 Put me in a 270 or 198 shield suit and you have a totally different ball game. At 198 I would limit myself to only ever fighting 1v1 from a sneak attack. You don't have the health to survive an extended fight. Bullet Hell and Duct-Tape? Count me in!

Ghost Kaisar Fatal Absolution General Tso's Alliance 7969	Posted - 2014.11.18 03:15:00 - [1312] - Quote He's trying to split the eWAR trifecta is what is seems like. The trifecta is Damp-Range-Precision as we all know. Right now, scouts are the BEST at all of the above. This causes eWAR disparity (which some argue it rightfully should) What he's trying to get at is removing an aspect and having it shine elsewhere. I don't support EXACTLY what he is saying, but I can get behind parts of it. For example: If it was me. Scouts would dominate the damp side of the spectrum. This gives them dampening they need to avoid the other two suits, but they now have to sacrifice slots to gain better passive eWAR. They are still the best suited for overall eWAR however. Since they damp, they don't need HP. They use these slots for eWAR instead. Assaults would dominate the range side of the spectrum. This gives them long range, low fidelity scans, letting them pick up Commando's and Heavies easily. They can buff out precision, but that requires giving up tank. Armor tankers could potentially take advantage of their highs, but they won't get much benefit from it, AND they lose damage mods. Logi's would dominate the precision side of the spectrum. This gives the heavies and commando's a bit of warning when a damped assault comes to kill them (or something). They can buff out range, but they lose a LOT of tank for it (All logi's are armor tankers. PERIOD. Even the Cal is an armor tank with shield buffer) Get my drift? Note: I would still ensure that scouts can dodge all passive scans if properly damped, and that Focused Scanners retain the ability to scan damped scouts. Bullet Hell and Duct-Tape? Count me in!

I'm in favor of buffing MedFrame EWAR, but I can think of no reason to nerf Scout EWAR. I can think of lots of reasons not to. For starters, it'll leave us lopsided as a class. MN and GA might walk away largely unaffected, but what comes of AM and CA? Their prescribed strengths are high-intensity/low-range scans and low-intensity/high-range scans. If we remove their scan strengths, what are they supposed to be the best at? Remember ... no HP tank! Hence why I want the "Spy Uplinks" to be Scout exclusive. If they want to remove our passive bonuses to eWAR, then they need to give us a piece of equipment to supplement recon. WE NEED A ROLE Think of them as motion detectors that you can plop down, that have different strengths for the different scouts. Minmatar would be high precision low range and hard to detect (Makes a small area a "Hunting Ground") Caldari would be high precision high range and easy to detect (Any logi with a scanner would pick up its location easily) Amarr would be an all around detector, with decent range, precision, and requires a scout or proto scan to pick it up. Gallente would be a low precision, high range and hard to detect motion mine (Surveys a large area, hard to remove. Great for infiltrators) Basic version is a single use. Advanced is a single use with one in reserve. Proto lets you plop down two and have one in reserve. They also get stats buffs and damp buffs as they go up, reaching the above examples at proto. SCOUT ONLY. This prevents Logi's from spamming this too and creating the permascan again. I would also require that there should be a set amount per team, and that once that limit is reached, new ones replace the old. Bullet Hell and Duct-Tape? Count me in!

IIRC, Min scouts had to run 3 complex damps and a cloak to avoid the 4x Cal scout, which pushed all scouts except Gal and Cal out of PC. Finding maths to prove my point. For example: The total bonus from 4x Precision is ~54.45% Old bonus was a 25% adjustment to base 36 precision becomes 27 base 27*(0.5445) = 14.7 = 15 Min Scout with two damps puts you at a 18.49 base. Old cloak reduced that to 13.86 = 14 Which means one of two things: A.) My math is wrong and something was different B.) I didn't have a proto cloak back then, hence my rage. All I remember is that I refused to do PC, and nobody ran Min Scouts in Alpha-Charlie days. Even Moody ran Cal scout in PC instead. Gal scouts did a better job hacking than Min Scouts, since they didn't have to run as many damps and could run 2x codebreakers and damps. Can anyone help me? Am I missing something?

It's so viable in CQC, that he would rather RELOAD than switch to his CQC bullet-hose sidearm. They really need to learn how to balance mid-long range weapons. ScR is still too viable in CQC. I've talked to a lot of friends who use this gun, the best way to fire is NOT to carefully control your shots and engage at range. The best way to use it is to spam the living hell out of it. In CQC? SPAM SPAM SPAM. At range? SPAM. Seriously CCP, just give it the same treatment as the LR, nerf its CQC damage. Or at least give it more hipfire, I've used it and it still is too accurate from the hip, given it's 96m effective range. In this same vein, the Combat rifle needs a tweak as well. CR has hipfire accuracy, but that's the result of it's bullpup configuration. To compensate, it NEEDS a ROF adjustment. Adjust Burst ROF to something more manageable (I liken it to the Battle Rifle from Halo) and increase the damage to compensate. RR is the first to get this treatment. It got a LARGE hipfire penalty, which made sense given its 100m effective range. Literally, there was no difference in the kick when ADS, you just couldn't use the thing like a breach SMG on a dime. Sidearms were required, and as they SHOULD be for all Light Weapons. Sidearms are much deadlier now, and they exist to COMPLIMENT your Light Weapon of choice, by covering up it's weaknesses or expanding on its strengths. For example: The SMG/Flaylock and Combat rifle. CR should be effective at around 30-60m with SMG's being able to handle everything from 0-20m. That 10m deadzone is where an AR user can take advantage of you (or a Magsec). Scrambler and ScR. ScR is made for the 40-70m range, with the ScR able to be effectively used in ~5-30m ranges (possibly farther or closer depending on skill). CR's can take advantage of that range, as well as a good AR. See how they compliment and overlap? THIS is how it should be. Light Weapons are not weapons that should be viable at all ranges under its effective range. Sidearms are there to take care of those ranges where you weapon simply isn't effective. They trade versatility for firepower. Bullet Hell and Duct-Tape? Count me in! FA recruits get free officer BPO's. Enlist today. Must be a scrub to enter.

My understanding was that they didn't need to meet that high of a threshold in terms of proof. I am not sure what that threshold is, but pretty much it was whether or not there was enough evidence for them to go to trial. Either way, it was stupid of them to know the decision by noon and wait until nightfall to release that information. Also, I think the anger is about something greater than this one case, and will continue so long as there is such a significant inherent imbalance in our justice system. That was exactly what I was trying to say. Grand Juries are used only to see if there is even enough evidence for there to be a trial. Not enough evidence was found. They can't do anything (In a criminal court at least. I still think that they can make a civil case). If you really hate that outcome, send a letter to your congressman detailing that you want him to support body camera's for cops (I really don't why we don't have these. We have dash cams on cop cars, why don't we have these for cops widespread as well?). Also: Here's my problem with the situation. At least from what I've gleaned from news sources. Random Protestor wrote: "They have given us no justice! We will give them no peace," I don't think you understand how justice works. Justice is not what you personally believe. If they were to overturn established practices to appease the public, all it would prove is that you can put anyone in jail if you can get the majority to support it. Remember people. This isn't a true democracy. True democracy is where anything and everything is done by majority vote. We have a democracy that focuses on Majority rule, but minority rights. He has the right to a fair trial. If not enough evidence is present for the trial to even stand a chance, he probably isn't guilty (As far as we can prove). As I said earlier, if this REALLY ticks you off for some reason, go and get some support and get cops to wear body cams. It's been shown in several states that these types of offenses have been drastically reduced by body cams. Instead of it turning into "Trust the cop or the civilian", it turns into "Roll the tape, lets see what happened". Bullet Hell and Duct-Tape? Count me in! FA recruits get free officer BPO's.

The only other game that I've played for a reasonable amount of time and that also has a cloak is Team Fortress 2. In that the Spy uses a cloak to get behind enemy lines and stab them in the back or destroy their sentry nests and teleporters. His primary weapon is a knife which kills everyone in one hit if he stabs them in the back. Thing is he only has an average movement speed, his health is super low, and his pistol is rather weak. And even in that game decloaking takes one or two seconds and you have a rather loud decloaking sound. Then there is the Scout who uses mobility to dodge enemy fire and cover enough ground to shoot people with a shotgun. In Dust it seems you have a class that is both. It is super fast, it has a cloak, it can overcome the downsides of most instakill weapons rather easily, and can see most enemies through walls while himself stay off of it. And I can assure you in TF2 both the Scout and Spy die MUCH quicker than they do in Dust. So, what is the role of the cloak? Personally, I think it should be a tool to get behind enemy lines, destroy equipment, hack stuff. Not a device that can be used to decloak mid-air and shoot people in the face with a shotgun like it used to be. That being said, I'd really like to see a cloak device variant which has no shimmer while moving, has a longer duration, but has a decloaking delay of ~5 seconds. Been calling for this for forever.

They sure don't seem to be struggling. ok caldari scouts have a broke hit box plus they are stacking shield plus they have a 15% DAMPING as their bonus plus 10% range per level. so two dampners and a proto and poof unscannable. oh btw thanks CCP Rattati* for killing the Minnie scout with the final numbers in your EWAR Concentric Circle Scan Falloff Design how is a Minnie scout going to nova knife people? run dampners and we don't have the speed to close in behind reds. run speed and get spotted at 10-25 meters. so yea thanks again... there goes a huge waste of time and skill points learned to run Minnie scout & nova kniving.

Scouts in short range have a 18 dB scan precision. Let that sink in for a bit. EVERY scout has this. NOBODY except other scouts can dodge our short range scans. Not even 4 damp assaults. 2.) Assaults may be able to scan you in 6m range, but nobody can possibly react that fast. Nobody has their eye on their radar 24/7, and It will still be easy to jump someone with knives as he is firing at someone or distracted. You can still pick them off one at a time. It WILL however, be hard to hang around an area with a lot of people. Run speed and damps people, you'll need it to survive. Never stop moving. 3.) Looking at all the new ranges, skills and whatnot, It's easy to see that the battlefield is going to be a LOT more interesting. Scouts can no longer scan assaults at range with base skills. People are REALLY going to have to start using your eyes more. Assaults WILL damp and WILL run precision. Everyone is basically getting an HP nerf as you are going to have to use eWAR to survive. 4.) Heavies and Commandos are going to feel a lot more vulnerable in exchange. With base skills, they will easily be picked up by scouts on long range scans. You will still see that heavy at 30m, and he won't see you at all in close scans. In short: Assaults are going to be a lot tougher to engage, but not impossible. Logistics will probably still be the greater threat, since they have a larger short range scan radius. Both will probably devote at LEAST one eWAR module per suit. Assaults will either run range or precision (Depending on their tank), and I bet you that Logistics will probably run at least two (Precision and range). In exchange, they make themselves EASIER TO DETECT. This means that our LONG RANGE scans can pick them up. Which allows us to avoid them, or maneuver around them. Ranged weapons will be more popular on scouts due to a difficulty in using CQC weapons. Once again, this is where you can start messing with peoples heads. Since shotguns will be rarer, what will happen in CQC? People will turn corners, expecting a rifle. Nova Knives. Dead. Once again, this is all theory, but I actually can't wait to see how this plays out. I will also finally be skilling into precision and range V, as I never had a reason to run them on my Min Scout before. Now all my suits can benefit from it. Bullet Hell and Duct-Tape? Count me in!

If you want all the perks that are considered cheating in more than 99% of other games then it should be sp intensive. A poxy cloak is not an integral part of scouting for decent scouts. If you want to avoid being scanned it is. My Proto Scout runs 2x damps and a proto cloak. WHILE CLOAKED I can dodge amarr passive scans and Gal Logi scans (Outside of focused). If I DIDN'T run a cloak, my Minja would have to run 3x damps, which really hinders the more positive aspects of the suit (Such as speed or hacking) since I lose that final low slot that is used for fitting versatility. This is godsend. Avoiding scans is an integral part of being a scout. If you aren't damped, you might as well run a speed tanked Assault, its basically the same thing now, minus the more precise passive scans. IMO Proper scouting is 40% dampening 40% stealth (Read: people not seeing you with their eyes) and 20% engagement/disengagement You gotta know how to avoid scans, avoid eyes, and how to make sure you don't die when engaging and disengaging.

Any suit with more base HP could get more from using them so the cap on HP would be a totally natural one. This would require revisiting all frames basic HP values but we could have really good stuff with this. If shield extenders (or armor plates) were +10%, with stacking penalties, frames that are tanky stay tanky, frames that are light get a lot less, and abuse automatically becomes impossible. It also fits in perfectly since the modules are enhancing the frames built in performance, not adding new functionality. Scout: 150 Shield +10% -> +15 HP and if you stack a second shield extender then stacking penalties begin as normal Assault with 300 Armor +10% armor plate -> 330 Armor, adding another plate would stacking penalty Heavy with 600 Shield +10% -> +60 HP, again, adding more would have stacking penalties from there. Just an idea. This has been brought up SEVERAL times. Though I'm more of a fan of "Light, Medium, and Heavy" Shield Extenders / Armor plates. Heavy frames would have the most CPU/PG, but their weapons and modules will cost a TON. Mediums would be unchanged. Lights would have the least, and would likely be forced to use "Specialist" weapons to run decent weapons. Their modules would be the cheapest in terms of PG/CPU This would make it harder to HP tank out of a suits intended range. You wanna equip a heavy shield mod on a Med Frame?

Highly recommend MN Assault. Best Scout available. GA Assault is another good option. I'm prepared to be burned at the torch for this. If you honestly believe that the Min Assault and Gal Assault are better "Scouts" than what is available; then you have never really been a scout in the first place. They are better SLAYING suits. In an equal playing field with no eWAR, these suits are fantastically better at surviveability and damage dealing. Take the Min Assault for example. It's fast, tanky, and has a bonus to make it better at dealing out punishment. It is a premier SKIRMISHING suit. Gal Assault is a freaking brawler suit. It has lots of HP, constant reps, damage mods, and a bonus that lets you hipfire all day long. However, both of these suits fail at the one thing that makes scouts shine. AVOIDING SCANS. Assaults need 2 Damps to be adequately damped. At 23 dB, the only thing scanning you reliably will be Gallente Scans and med range scout scans. On almost every suit though, you will lose tank/regen/speed. Gal Assault can only really get 475 armor and 10 rep/s. Min Assault can still be fast and tanky, but you lose regen, having no armor and a horrid 6s shield delay. Not only that, but they all fail in PC when trying to be a "Scout". You will be scanned. Period. However, if your idea of "Scouting" is running around in a fast slaying suit, then go ahead. Min Assault with a shotgun is actually pretty decent in PC against teams that don't scan properly. A SCOUT however, excels in avoiding scans and maintaining speed/regen, and still having a decent tank for its speed and hitbox. One of my favorite ways to play scout in PC is a Gal Scout with 2x damps, 2x speed and Uplinks. You are almost impossible to scan due to sheer speed (Focused can't hit you very well) and you can easily plant uplinks in prime locations. 2x Damp min scout with a kincat is great at quickly covering ground and hacking objectives. I also use this suit with a cloak and uplinks to do the exact same thing as the other suit, except I can quickly get in and hack the objective faster. Powerful short range passive scans let you scan almost anything around a corner. A single precision lights up any med frame not running 2x damps, and is invaluable at picking up when something is turning the corner to meet you. Most importantly, you are great at picking up equipment in a large radius. All of this combines to create the massive difference in Scouts and Assaults that we have in today's PC meta. SCOUTS are used only in ones or twos in PC now. Much like the old days. Our job is to lay uplinks behind enemy lines, remove uplinks/equipment, and use dampening to punish those who rely too much on scanning. ASSAULTS are used as a slayer class. They run in the group, using their speed and tank to quickly engage and kill enemy targets on the battlefield. They are powerful and versatile, but weak in eWAR without modifications. You supply them with external eWAR, in the form of scanners to create powerful offensive forces. Hence the Meta. Assaults will kill any scout they see in a 1v1 outside of CQC range. To avoid this, they dampen, and flank constantly, often removing the logistics units supplying the scans for the team, creating an advantage for their team. Since a lone, undamped scout can actually cause quite a bit of havoc with their speed and alpha, they can't be unaccounted for. Enemy scouts will attempt to routinely cover their teams six when possible, and help chase down fleeing scouts, when not performing their own duties. TL;DR If you think Gal and Min Assaults are better scouts, you're actually just a slayer in disguise. Go get an assault suit and play like an assault. Let the scouts stay in their suit and do their job: Removing uplinks/equipment, solo hacking lightly guarded objectives and punishing people who rely too much on scanning. /rant Born Deteis Caldari.

"Get rid of the assault scout! Let the slayers go into their assault suits!" Now you guys are saying "Everyone go into the assault suits, they're better scouts than scouts are!" BS. They just got put back into their previous position, and everyone still wants to grab their scout and go grab 20+ kills in PC / Pubs. People who pulled 20+ kills in Pubs with a scout suit used to be freaking rare. A person like that was a god at quickly engaging, killing, and disengaging a single target with RAPID SPEED. They could almost run circles around teams that weren't communicating effectively or scanning properly. Now it just seems like everyone feels entitled to the same offensive power that they used to have, even though that power was something that we all agreed that we SHOULDN'T HAVE. I'm not afraid to say it. I have 2 Proto Assault suits. And they are FANTASTIC at killing people. I don't pull out my scout suit when I want to push people off the objective. I grab my Gal Assault, stick my AR in their face and tell them to leave or die. I DO pull out my scout when I notice that they are all running around pell mell all scattered about. Then I go and pick them apart one by one and go hack everything they love and hold dear. Or when I notice that the front line doesn't need my help, and I instead want to focus on removing their ability to zerg the point over and over with links. My scout suits aren't slaying suits anymore, and all is right in the world. If you still think that you need the Gal/Min assault to scout, wake up and smell the roses. You don't want to scout. You want to rip peoples faces off with a shotgun. And that's completely okay. Grab the assault suit and be happy. Just don't call it a "Scout", as you would only be lying to yourself. /rant for real this time. Born Deteis Caldari. Rejected by my Kinsman. Found a new family in the Vherokior Tribe.

Smart ones pull out the damp fit and get to work I hate PC corps in pubs because they are all running fotm proto min assaults. Funny in pubs a lot of those that you say can't adapt don't have the skills to dampen, see proto uplinks on rooftops, run proto 24/7 and most of all run min assault like everyone is on the PC corp proto stomping them. PC corps think they are so good when they are nothing but exploiters of whatever is FOTM and proto stomping pubs. That is not adapting or being better in a pub match. Funny I can bring proto scans and the pc corps in pubs do not dampen they just keep spamming proto min assaults while spamming uplinks on every rooftop. Is that how PC matches are? Top Tier meta hasn't changed in awhile. Put links down on the ground in defendable places. Roof links are not viable if you don't have total air superiority. Be able to rotate FAST between objectives on bridge map. Scans will save you from fast Min Assaults. Heavy Spam CQC objectives. City is largely determined by who brings the best heavies. Watching 4 FA heavies with Logi support was glorious, they would tear through 6-8 heavies in a single push. Scouts kill every damn link they find. Flux ones in hard to reach places. KILL LOGIS ADS Support is pivotal. Combine with a tank or two for outside points, and you have a tough mobile team. Most tactics revolve around defending objectives with an iron wall, and protecting your own spawn system, while removing the enemies. A good push into city will cap both objectives, and kill the enemy team, along with links. IF they have Air Superiority, they can keep jumping down from roofs. If not, they are pushed out, and will probably crash the outside objectives if playing bridge. The only corp that I have seen SPAMMING Min Assault is OH. Played em last night, held a solid 3 cap all game long. Scans really helped negate overall effectiveness on the outside objectives. As for the underlined, you just proved my point. I just told you the counter to the FOTM. It's powerful scans. A good team of equal skill can easily counter that Min Assault spam with good, sustained scans. It doesn't have the eHP to survive getting prefired around corners 24/7. The problem is the fact that the people in pubs just aren't on the same skill level as most PC corps. Take for example a PC corp that I love. Dead Mans Game. Dead Mans Game has SOLID tactics and teamwork. They have better synergy than 80% of the teams in PC. The reason why they aren't as strong as the rest is a severe lack of slay power. I remember playing them in FA, we held city with 4 people. Derrith ran ADS, with 1 scanner in the city and Jigoku and Myself running scout. We held city by OURSELVES. They sent 8 people there and couldn't hold the objectives. Not because of lack of talent or lack of counters. They made all the right moves. They just couldn't slay us. Even at disadvantage, we destroyed them with gun game and skill.

Gear lock tiers, scale payouts. If you want to get lots of ISK, you have to play proto tier. Since its the highest paying tier in pubs, everyone who wants to make good ISK will be there. PC players would be there to fund PC. If you want to stomp blues, you would be forced into the same tier gear, and may possibly get lots of kills out of picking on the lower tier guys. But you will get barely any ISK out of it. Not enough to make it worth your time. 2.) Update global killboard, designate ranking based off percentile, balance games off of that. It would be based off of a mix of weekly stats and lifetime, to prevent gaming the system. Reminiscent of old Halo matchmaking. Top tier players would find most of their matches filled by people in the same ballpark as them. Problem with this is that the top x% of dust players are not very common.

I get wanting to play your best and all, but to flat out enjoy frustrating new players or players that still play this game in spite of the stomping is what makes people play less. I seem to remember you being upset with how some people in this thread have behaved, but looking at that FA QQ thread, I can't say any of your corp mates behaved any more maturely. If you really care about how others view your corp, I suggest a little humility as a whole may go a long way. If you don't really care, then the question itself is moot. Infected wasn't wrong in his post. Read it carefully. He does run ADV a majority of the time. He wasted tons of ISK blowing up tanks with RE's attached to dropships. Now about the others? Yes, FA gets apathetic a lot. Mainly because most of them (Like me) got to where they are by fighting like hell and never giving up. When people pull out Proto, we answer, and put them in their place. I don't think you understand what the name does. I can run BPO gear and watch as every starts turning the gear dial up, until they have people running full proto to try and take us down. So we slap ours on and show them how its done. If I start a match in PRO, its because I see people on the other team who will end up there eventually anyways, so I just pull mine out in the first place. So yeah, we're apathetic. We deal with proto in matches every single day. Most don't see how anyone else can complain. As for the ones talking smack to the other PC corps there, that's just common practice. Everyone hates each other in PC. Everyone is really high strung on the competitive side. Most of you have known me and played with me before. I try hard to be understanding and fair to all I encounter. At the end of the day, I play this game to play with friends and have fun. And when I play with FA, we always have a blast, either by fighting a tough fight and coming out on top, or by running challenging and entertaining fits when matched against people who don't have a chance. Most of us in squad will immediately say "Well great, this match just got boring" as the entire team is redlined. We would much rather have you push the objective than give up. Sadly, almost everyone chooses the latter option. Born Deteis Caldari. Rejected by my Kinsman. Found a new family in the Vherokior Tribe. Nobody messes with my family

We ALL hate that guy, the one who is sitting 200m of the objective, doing jack squat when he could be contributing to helping win the match. Why is he even here? Why isn't he helping the team? I'll never be that guy. If I'm 200m off the objective, it's because I have a sniper rifle and I'm removing anyone who tries to roof camp, or eliminating other snipers.

You do nothing but die over and over and over. People like you suck, and you should stop playing the game." Lets say that the poor guy is just REALLY bad at this game. But he LOVES it.

The headshot multiplier is great, but it is damn near impossible to line up a headshot on a moving target. If a target's wiggling at longish range, I'll miss him 3 out of 5 times aiming center mass. Aim for the head and I'll miss 5 for 5. It seems to be a total crapshoot; headshots on a moving target are more about chance than skill or effort. So aim for the body, right? If it's a Scout you're shooting at, you hit him once then he begins to evade. With a little luck, you'll hit him again and get the kill before he reaches cover. But if it is anything else, you have to hit him again and again and often again and again. This isn't so bad a requirement with the Tac SR, but the Ishukone fires too dang slow and kicks too dang hard for a weapon which requires multiple, consecutive shots to kill. Not sure what to suggest. Adding inertia on directional change would help with target tracking and the "crapshoot" aspect. Perhaps better zoom fidelity, reduced sway, and/or an ever-so-slightly faster rate of fire? You need the snipers Mantra. Be patient. Wait for the kill to present itself. WAIT. They will eventually stop moving, or be wounded enough to finish off. One Shot. One Kill. Headshot or bodyshot, your goal is to eliminate in one shot. Born Deteis Caldari. Rejected by my Kinsman.

But I've seen Dreis (or are you him in disguise why are you talking to me when I was talking to Dreis) run proto everytime I play with him. In Doms, he is always running a Proto Min Ass with a Boundless CR or Six Kin ACR. And when he ran scouts, he ran a Scout mk.0 I'm not, I'm just showing that having a high W/L is more likely due to the fact that a player KNOWS how to win a match. They know what must be done and takes it upon themselves. In that match, I had to solo hold 2 objectives and contest the third the entire game by myself while a few blues held the outside. And I freaking did it. Good players have High W/L ratios because they run in squads and do what must be done. If he wants to run a proto suit, let him. Those things are almost impossible to run for profit in pubs without supplementary income from PC. If he can afford to run it, why shouldn't he? I run Proto Min Assaults and Proto Min Scouts.

Focused is made to scare you into running that third damp. Gal Logi picks you up on objective with focused (He already knew where you were). Second logi pings you just before it expires. Suddenly, you think they're spamming focused scans. They're not. But now you're running 3x damps and are less combat effective. WORKS. And now that logi can carry an AR and not be combat ineffective.

You say keeping the knife bonus is holding us back and I say keeping the hack bonus is what is holding us back. I run minja more than any other suit. Personally I disagree about the knife bonus. I think it's great for flavour and identity. And it's just good enough to get me to use knives on nearly all my Min scout fits. But I don't think its a particularly strong bonus. In many knifing situations you would do just as well, or better with a shotgun. I would argue it is often easier to place two optimal range, direct hit shotgun blasts, than a fully charged nova knife double hit. On the other hand, I love the hacking bonus. I think, in terms of strategy, it gives the min scout a nice niche. It's not useful a lot of the time, but it's nice generally, and the strategic option to pull off that rare speed back is great. I wouldn't change the nk bonus. It's very important to the Min scout's identity and the fun / flavour of the game. I just don't agree it's particularly strong. I like my knives. But I would kill for a flat biotics bonus. Currently listening to: Max Anarchy OST Old School Scout, watch out for the knives

This compounds the problem as it encourages FCs to pay for elites rather than use less experienced corp members. It also makes it difficult for corps to get into PC in the first place. I'm hoping raids will help. In theory there won't be enough elite ringers to go round meaning higher prices for these elites and more battles for other players without getting stomped. As long as people have ego's you will ALWAYS have corps willing to pay for teams to carry their name to victory. I guarantee it. Raids will help get new people into PC, I'm convinced of that, but you severely underestimate the power that an EXPERIENCED PC squad can do in a small pond.

Don't you think it's ridiculous that corps are able to use ringers to boost the number of districts they can field simultaneously? I believe the number of members a corp has should reflect how many districts it can own within the same timer. If a corp can only field two full teams simultaneously at it's prime, it should only be able to own two districts within that timer. It shouldn't be able to use ringers to field six districts simultaneously, when logistically, it could only field two with it's own members. Why not? Its the whole point of logistics. If they are able to use ringers and hold more districts than their normal player count, all the power to them. However, over dependence on ringers is actually a huge weakness, if you know how to exploit it. If you know who the ringers are, you hit another district on the same timer and hire a team of players to show up there. The ringers will go to fight their own battle, and all the other team has to do is keep them there. Then you force the other team to show up with their own, or hire different ringers. PC is war. Argue about honor and integrity all you want, but the bottom line is you are going to have to deal with it, no matter how scrummy it is. CCP won't intervene. Welcome to the sandbox. I'm not saying I don't agree with you. However, I don't try to convince other teams to change tactics so that I can have an easier time. I find a way to punish them for using the same team and strat over and over again. TL;DR Its a sandbox. Unless they are breaking the rules CCP will let you do whatever you want.

I'm of the mindset where I believe that there isn't anything I can't do well if I put the time into it. Its just that Fighting games take a LOT of time to get good in. Hell, I spent around 6 hours in training mode just learning the BnB's and mechanics for ONE character. Ain't got time for that.

I'm really bad at it so I end up playing support with him a lot, though I'm starting to get better with Ahri. You're thinking of the "Daigo Parry". Probably the most important single moment of his fame. Instant celebrity right there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtuA5we0RZU For those who may not understand what's going on exactly and why it's amazing: You block attacks by holding back, but you take chip damage. Chun-li tries to chip out Daigo with her super attack. If he just blocks it he dies, if he pushes buttons, he dies. So he parries EVERY SINGLE HIT, which is a very small window of opportunity where you have to tap forward the moment you get hit. A parry has many bonuses including reduced blockstun and no chip damage. It's absolutely incredible that he parried every single hit of her multi-hit super move. Whats insane is the Chun-Li's first hit has 1 FRAME hit time. He had 1 FRAME to react to it. So of course, he has to anticipate when it goes out. Nerves of steel.

Hit their flank the moment the other squad ran into them You know, with scanners you don't need to stand cloaked. If you used a a scanner the whole squad would know without you barking at them. It's more accurate too. Saves time too! This is probably because I don't PC, but in pubs you can flank without cloaks. It's pretty easy with a scanner cause the scanners tell you where people are so you just go around them. But you're the better player so your opinion is worth more. Honestly, I still think its a matter of preference. I dislike scanners for a few reasons. I am vulnerable while using them, they alert people around me that I'm scanning (Visual and Audio cues, along with the YOU HAVE BEEN SCANNED), and they are purely preventative tools. IF you do get spotted, a scanner does you no good anymore. It is used to PREVENT you from being spotted (the way you want to use it), but you still run the risk of a damped scout getting under it and lighting you up. Cloak works on everyones eyes, damped or not. I've learned how to use general map awareness, alongside of friendly scans to be able to guess where heavy traffic is on the map. I then avoid those areas, use the cloak to get in behind them and kill them. Other scouts? Just watch out for them and check your 6. They can't scan me (Double Damped), and if I do see them, I cloak and run. Min Scout is faster than most every other scout out there. Just get out of visual range, cloak and hide. Once the threat has passed, move on. If scanners work for you, they work. I just don't like using them. Currently listening to: Max Anarchy OST Old School Scout, watch out for the knives

Low slots for the min scout are (in my humble opinion) the most treasured and precious things in dust. My low slots are worth more than a lifetime supply of officer weapons. Why? Damps and Kincats. But let's forget that for a second, you want to test having a chunkier buffer of armor on a minscout. May I suggest ferros instead? If you are legitimately worried about repairing your armor, just bring a compact nanohive with you. you'll have 3 armor fill ups stocked up whenever you need. Count how often you actually use all 3 of them, then decide if you really want to give up a low slot for 1 more point of armor regen. Personally, I always die before I can make use of armor regen. If I don't, I got REALLY lucky, and I'm not going to get lucky twice, so odds are I don't need the armor I lost for the next engagement. with the scanners around i gave up on fitting a damp...its either all damps or nothing. edit: I use a cardiac reg, a kincat and a codebreaker in my lows....works great 2x Damps and a Kincat is practically all you need unless they have more than one Proto Gal Logi spamming scans. If you ever have to use 3x damps on a Min Scout, you need to switch to a 2x Gal scout. Sometimes I even had to run 3x damp gal scout because squads will pull out 3x focused scan logis. This is how I know I'm loved. Short version of "How to Scout" 1.) Spawn in suit with speed and uplinks. Survive until death. 2.) Spawn in suit with 1 damp. Play until scanned. 3.) After death or depot, switch to suit with 2 damps. Play until scanned (You normally never go past this step) 4.) Spawn in 3x damp scout and murder gal logis until they quit to save their KD/R. 5.) Play safe: 2x Damps. Feeling gutsy: 1x Damp. Repeat steps 2 (or 3) through 5 until game ends. Running damps harms your offensive capabilities, so you ALWAYS want to run as few as possible. This is why each suit needs a 1, 2, and 3 damp set up to rotate through as needed. In PC, typical loadout is 2x damps no matter the scout. Only go 3x on a Gal scout. Min scouts can't compete with other suits at 3x damps, so you have to switch to a gal or amarr scout, or to a different suit. I go Gal if I need to still play scout, Min Assault if I need to slay. Hmm. I think I might write a comprehensive guide on scouting before I finally say goodbye. I'm sure it will drastically reflect my own playstyle, but I'm sure more than a few new players could benefit from it.

You can fit whatever you want on any suit. That is the beauty of Dust. However, you start to hit a point of diminishing returns. In order to really enjoy the benefits of a reactive or ferro on a min scout, you need to run MORE than just one. If you really wanted to, you could easily run a 1x Damp, 1x Ferro, 1x Kincat Min Scout. It's damped, has a little bit more armor , combined with a good shield tank on top. However, at this point, you must ask yourself "Can another suit do this better?". The answer is YES. The Gal Scout can do it better. The Gal scout will be a BIT slower, but have 100 extra total HP, more rep and better eWAR. Along with better fitting space. Putting Armor on a min scout is a dangerous path because of how it seeks to emulate the Gal scout. Normally, this would be a matter of taste, but with the Gal having better natural fitting capabilities and eWAR, the Gal scout will always win out in that fitting battle. That is why I fervently believe that you shouldn't put armor on a min scout. Play to its strengths, don't try and turn it into a watered down Gal scout.

If you can, get a custom cable made (properly or you lose the cat certification) to length. For your uses you won't even be phased by a 30% loss.. but definitely keep the cable clear of sources of interference such as near wifi/RF signals, power sources, etc as much as possible. IMHO, I would say go wireless with AC router/wifi card. Less hassle long term, and probably not too much more $ than a 100ft cat 5/6 cable. Yeah, wireless might be my best bet. I'm only about 20m from the router (Through the floors though). How strong of a card do I need?

That is why I fervently believe that you shouldn't put armor on a min scout. Play to its strengths, don't try and turn it into a watered down Gal scout. For me, the fit is perfect. That Ferroscale often saves my life. That speed I get from being Minja has also saved me before. I did run a Gal Scout before I respeced, but I found that the Minja had the perfect combination of speed, HP and Dampening capabilities for me. Besides, there are other little things that I dislike about the Gal Scout. IT IS playing to the Min Scout's strengths to make a balanced fit of HP, speed and Dampening, as that's what the Minmatar do best; running balanced fits. If for some reason you hate the Gal Scout, then by all means, do what you wish. I've ran every single Minmatar suit at proto. Every suit can be either shield or armor tanked EXCEPT the Scout and Logi. Logi is strictly an armor tank, and Scout is strictly a speed tank. You sacrifice too much on either suit to do anything otherwise. For example: Running a ferro on a min scout reduces you to 1 damp if you want to have any speed. If you want to not be scanned, you will be SLOW. The speed difference between an assault and scout without kincats is negligible, especially since a lot of assaults run kincats now with the extra fitting space. But hey, if you don't want to run a Gal scout, I will admit that the build is the closest you can get to it. Currently listening to: Max Anarchy OST Old School Scout, watch out for the knives

Marauder was just downright oppressive. In your face, 24/7 with a shotgun ready to kill you and your whole team.

I mean, what exactly does one have to do to achieve it? I am seriously asking. Okay okay okay. A "Bastard" is the epitome of a scout. Scouts are supposed to be fast, hard to detect, and squishy. With high enough skill (and game knowledge), you can abuse you strengths to FAR outpace your weaknesses. A Bastard is that scout who always manages to sneak in and shotgun your logi. A Bastard is that scout who always knives you in the back while you try to hack a point. A Bastard is that scout who ALWAYS MANAGES TO FREAKING GET AWAY. A Bastard is that scout who makes you paranoid, and always checking you back every few steps. And so you get mad. You chase him. So do your friends. You all devote yourselves to trying to eradicate this stupid, annoying sht with almost no health who seems to be running circles around you and devoting his life to making your game miserable. This is a bastard. A sadistic little guy in a suit who gets off on messing with your mind, making you paranoid, and making the game as unfun as possible for you. You wanted to play Dust today? WELL TOO BAD. WELCOME TO RESPAWN SIMULATOR 2015 Anytime you encounter a scout who just makes you think "What a dck" you've met a Bastard. How can you achieve this status? Start acting like one. Start picking on logis and heavies. I put a personal death sentence on every Forger and Gal Logi I see in the game. Stand close to points that you know are about to be hit and WAIT. Then kill the guy who goes to hack. Run off. Wait. Kill another guy. Pick them off one by one, gleefully as they try to hack a point. If they all start chasing you, send them on a merry chase and RE them around corners. If the whole team starts to show up, RE the point and run away. Then set up at the next point. Someone trying to hide and forge/snipe in the redline. Show them nowhere is safe. Knife them in the back even if it means dying to redline timer (I have a cheap suit for killing Proto forges like this). MAKE PEOPLE TILT. They make more mistakes and are even easier to take advantage of now. I sound like an a**hole don't I? That's the point. I may be nice on the forums, but I aim to be ruthless in game. This is a TEAM based game. Anything you can do that destroys that teamwork is beneficial. And a good scout can mess up so many things at once, its not even funny. At least that's my take on this. OG Bastards were very much like this. With great eWAR and familiarity with their kit, people like Marauder and Lightning got godly at stomping teams into the ground with discord and chaos.

The power difference between tiers is too great to make raiding profitable. You want ISK in PC? Be prepared to make a meat grinder of proto suits, its the only way to do so.

Got a Scotsman GK.0 I'm trying to get rid of. 80 mil ISK for the 2 skins? we got a deal? as soon as this darn PS3 gets shipped... 40 Mil for 1 skin. I just want the Brutor.

And why would you want raids to be EXACTLY THE SAME as a PC attack, when you can still just launch a PC attack? Because at the moment, they ARE PC attacks. Exactly the same. If you don't show up, they can take the district. That isn't a raid, it's a full blown attack. Attacks are met with a full team, in proto, ready to defend their district. Only to see a rag-tag team of pubbies with Apex or MLT gear running around with their heads cut off. To us, its an Ambush OMS game with crappy payouts. To the Raiders, its a typical pub with better payouts. I don't play PC to fight teams in MLT gear with the intention of losing. I play PC to have an actual challenge, because pubs are a joke. Raiding right now is not a healthy mechanic for PC at all. It needs to be changed. Not destroyed, but changed.

Obsessing over K/D is bad, but its still a decent statistic to be familiar with. For those who are wondering, my weekly is at 3.12ish I know what you're saying, been in STB for four years now, the big difference between us and other corps of the time was the the 'anyone can apply, as long as you're willing to learn' mentality. This opened the corp to many new players, and I know for a fact that many great vets, here and gone, were made into fps ass whoppers not because they always were but because we taught them how to be. STB is a family that I'm proud to be apart of, we've been through much together. We raised money for a young, now old, STB's college fund. We got guys who was struggling with money back on their feet. We supported our CEO when his newborn was sick. And If it wasn't for STB I would have died, twice. That's why when I see guys being pushed away just because they're not FPS gods it makes me cringe, alot of these guys just need training, training that older players refuse to give in favour of stomping their faces in. Just my two isklets. Yeah, but that's the difference between FA and STB. STB is a gaming family. I've been a part of groups like that, its the game that brings people together. Sense of community is strong. FA is well, FA. Most of us are crazy, like winning and competing, and find far too much humor in trolling each other than we should. FA was formed with the idea of being a top tier competitive corp and that's the bar for entry. If we deny your app based on K/D, its because you won't be able to PC with us and we know you probably won't like the fact that most of the corp won't play with you if you're bad (Remember the competitive and like winning part? Nobody likes dragging around a dead weight.). I don't hold it against them though, everyone who gets into FA knows what they're signing up for. Perform or GTFO. The only ones we keep that are bad are personal friends. We do scouting too, but we don't try to pick up and teach people brand fresh new. We try to pick up those who already know how to play, and have the skills/potential to succeed. I was scouted by FA from being a nobody, and so was Frost Kitty and several others. It doesn't happen often, but we still do so. I've seen some new guys in corp that I've never played with or heard of before. I still squad with them and play with them, because they're in here for a reason. It's my job to bring them up to speed when I can. I'm not saying that every corp or group or clan should be like this, just that they can exist as well. Every corp does not need to be made for everyone. STB from what it sounds like, reminds me of the first gaming clan I was in. The Evil Gang was a BF1943 clan originally and spanned out over the years. Very strong sense of community, almost anyone was welcome. They're still going strong 5 years later. I've always kept my EVL tags (Check my PSN one day, or even my Steam account), because I've always felt like I should never forget those roots. I may enjoy winning and competing far more than I did starting out, but I make a point to never let K/D or winning get in the way of having fun. Every now and then, FA goes and does goofball stuff just to have fun (Like when we all ran nothing but MLT Locus grenades. Harder to kill with than it sounds, you only get one and it's 300 damage). Get my drift Sin? I love the fact that STB is like that, It reminds me of my first gaming clan. But not every clan needs to be like it, and having different values isn't something that you should hold against another group. Remember, Bronies probably have just as much fun at conventions as Outdoor enthusiasts. Who's to hold it against them? EDIT: We kinda went off topic a bit. In short: For certain corps of different intentions and inclinations, K/D can be a valuable stat to track. Currently listening to: Tsukihime OST Un-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_;

Truth be told, farming might still be possible like this, so a more elegant solution might be necessary. However, if someone were to farm it, they would literally need lots of alts doing nothing but dying over and over in free suits. The effort would be real. Honestly I dislike these two ideas. Free PC battles by CP for corps that don't have districts is a good thing. Sure there is an issue with no shows, but giving more ISK to defenders with districts is unnecessary. Many new corps would never kill 100 clones versus a good corp. The new split what you kill is a much better reward mechanic for PC's and prevents abuse. No showing also seems like a valid grief method :) As it is, you do get paid DK for noshows... and maybe one day it'll be worth something. I think you are misinterpreting. These mechanics are for raids. If a raiding group attacks a district, they pay "X" ISK up front as "collateral". If they LOSE 100+ clones and the match, the ISK is refunded. If they win, ISK is refunded. This entices the raiders to try and cause as much damage as possible, as they need to lose 100 clones to not lose ISK. This encourages AGGRESSION from the raiders. Their goal will be to try and take down as many enemies as possible, or to win the objective match through straight body count. Both teams benefit from the extra "Clone Tax" as the defenders now get ISK for defending, even if the other team uses low level gear. The Raiders also get more ISK per clone as well. It's a win-win. So, with these changes: Here is what happens in raids 1.) Raiders get more ISK and more incentives to try and either Win or cause as much damage as possible. If they show up and actually fight, the attack is still free. 2.) Defenders get ISK for showing up to their defense in the form of ISK for every enemy clone killed. Only clones killed in COMBAT count. They now have incentive to show up and put as many enemies down as they can. 3.) No showers now are penalized for launching attacks and not showing up. They lose the ISK collateral, which then goes to the defender, as compensation for forming and organizing for the fight without one showing up. If you're going to attack, you had better mean it. I literally don't see how these changes could be bad, apart from possible exploits for farming. The core of the ideas are to make raids beneficial for BOTH teams if played correctly. EDIT: Oh, and this tidbit. Ares 514 wrote: No showing also seems like a valid grief method :) No method is a valid grief method. Griefing can see itself out.

Hell, FA just took a district a few days ago because Terra Nova left a district with 0 clones on it. Free district, didn't even fight over it. There is only 245 Districts in Dust514. There is LIMITED ROOM in PC. It isn't for everyone. You want in, get some initiative and stake a claim. I remember when we had to run Aurum gear to be competitive, back when I didn't have proto. We had to do corp taxes to pay for PC's and our tankers. You guys are being handed accessibility to PC on a silver freaking platter and are wasting it by making stupid decisions.

The pros (at least some of them) are getting frustrated. Players like Ghost want good fights and definitely don't enjoy wasting their time. All things held constant, the pros may eventually tire of showing up everyday to defend their farmlands if it isn't any fun to do so. You left out a part of it. Farmland basically doesn't exist anymore. The only corp I know of that even SOMEWHAT qualifies is Capital Acquisitions. They have 2 planets full of districts, aren't attacking anyone, not selling clones, and not even fighting their own battles (OH fields them all for some freaking reason). I talked to several people from corp (Who are a bit more up to speed on the state of PC than me), and they said farm land just isn't viable anymore. THIS IS A GOOD THING. In order to make ISK, you have to own land, and sell the clones. This doesn't lock the district, and leaves you more vulnerable. You can't lock districts by packs and farm the ISK from clone genolution now. It doesn't work since they removed getting ISK from clones destroyed (Now done by assests). Now, how do you make ISK in PC now? The more pessimistic would say "You can't" but they're not entirely wrong. If you want to make ISK in PC, you need the following. 1.) A team good enough to defend districts regularly without max clones. 2.) A team good enough to win fights and get ISK through fighting. 3.) A team good enough to discourage pointless attacks that lock your clones. Then, you have to just sell off batches of 120 clones whenever you get them. You don't just drain districts and lock them until they fill up again. There has to be balance. You can't sell off too many, as you leave yourself open to an assault. If you sell off too few, you don't get ISK. As far as I'm aware, this is whats making farm-land not viable. The best way to make ISK to control just enough land that your corp can handle, and skim ISK off the top of your clone count. Which is what FA is trying to do right now. Get districts and start selling off batches of 120 to get paychecks out to our players. Lord knows I need it. I'm sitting on 3 Mil ISK because I blew it all on skins In short, its a LOT harder to make ISK in PC now. It's still more lucrative than pubs and FW, but we're slowly inching towards the point where its no longer worth the hassle. No risk raid spam is certainly not helping that "hassle" part. So long as most of the non-PC community keep living in the "Farmland" past, they will keep screaming to make PC less lucrative. For crying out loud, check Dustcharts. As of 15:00 EVE, we have 19 locked districts out of 245, and a pretty decently spread out timer list (READ: Easy to launch attacks at any time of day. They used to all be early morning or midday, when almost nobody could field). If you ever want to see how much farming is being done, check how often districts are locked. If there is over 20% lock consistently, it means that farming is viable. We're only at 7% lock districts right now. Side rant: Heck, there's over 25 districts right now that are OPEN and UNDER 150 CLONES. Seriously, if you want to get into PC, its so freaking easy. You might have to fight Latino lag, but you can still find fights and get in. If you want to get into PC, USE DUST CHARTS. It's not that hard.

I'm referring to what has been in the past the at-rest state of PC. Long periods of (highly profitable) peace punctuated by the occasional conflict. If it makes the most fiscal sense for landowners to blue up or declare cease fire, farming in peace will become their at-rest state. Should a warmongering corp rock the boat or refuse to play ball, push them out and keep them out of farmland. Everyone wants a paycheck, and everyone gets a bigger paycheck during peace time. If competitive corps are better off not fighting one another, why should they? I understand what you're getting at, however.... PC is not "HIGHLY PROFITABLE" anymore. I used to get 30 Mil Paychecks every week. That was broken (Granted, I was fighting ~10-12 PC's a week). I'm not saying that raiding in itself is a bad mechanic. It's an excellent way to check things from getting too peaceful in PC. However, my problem with it right now is that you DON'T EVEN HAVE TO FIGHT. You can just launch attacks for free and never show up, wasting our time. Or show up in crap gear and make us play Ambush OMS with worse payouts. As I said earlier, Raiding isn't a bad mechanic, but it needs a more elegant solution. Right now, its an unfun check to stagnant PC. The check is working, but they need to fix the unfun part. ISK for successful defenses and encouragement to keep raiding. If you can make it a win-win for both sides, THAT is desirable. Non-PC corps (or corps wanting to join in) have the ability to launch attacks and check PC stagnation. If you make it ISK profitable for them to attack, they will KEEP DOING SO. Capitalism. Making defending those districts and attacks ISK profitable reduces the monotony on the defender as well. Then, we have more reason to show up and defend. Right now, it feels monotonous. "We're only going to defend because if we don't they can take the district". That's literally what it feels like going into a raid. No excitement for a fight, literally going through the motions. Making defending ISK profitable gives another dimension to it. "I'm going to defend our district, and get paid doing so." Oh hey, look. Suddenly I'm a mercenary. Nobody likes fighting a fight that isn't challenging and unrewarding. That is what needs to change with raiding. Currently listening to: Tsukihime OST Un-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_;

But everyone likes getting paid. If end-game participants were more interested in challenging fights than making Isk, then there wouldn't be blue donuts, cease fires, or otherwise stagnant play. War would be a constant. There is ALWAYS a crosspoint between challenge and reward. It changes from person to person. Some people are fine with no challenge, all reward. Others are fine with all challenge, no reward. However, this does not describe the majority at all. And you can't change the players. In a sandbox, you can't just say "Oh, these guys are only in it for the money, lets get them out". It's a SANDBOX. You don't just knock over someones sandcastle because you don't agree with the reasons why they built it. You can totally regulate the EFFORT and REWARD in PC though. Right now, in my opinion, Effort/Reward is fairly BALANCED. You can easily turn a decent profit in PC for the effort required to hold and defend land. This does not hold true for RAIDING. Raiding at the moment is horribly skewed on the Effort/Reward axis. For attackers, its Low Effort, Low reward. You show up, or don't, and just fight with no stress. You can get a pub payout from it. For the defenders, It's High Effort, Low reward. You HAVE to show up, and get almost nothing from it. You also don't get a good fight, because LOL MILITIA GEAR. Raiding has a place, and its necessary to regulate stagnation in PC, as I've said. It serves as a check to those who like the no challenge, high reward players (Which will ALWAYS exist.). It makes them fight for their land when they would rather not to. This is a good thing. But to teams who already have their hands full defending and attacking, it serves as a MAJOR annoyance. We're trying to optimize our efficiency here, and there's more fights thrown on top that we get nothing out of. We don't get the challenge we want, and we don't get the reward that makes it worth showing up. Raiding changes are necessary to keep PC fun and profitable to EVERYONE. Not just the farmers, or the fighters, or the raiders. Changes in PC need to benefit all who are involved. Because its a sandbox. Everyone is in it for their own reasons, and nobody likes to be told that their reasons for being in it are wrong, and then penalized for it.

That may be our best option considering the problems we've highlighted within both Dom and Aqu. Yup. Nothing compares to skirmish. It's honestly the only decently balanced game mode in Dust. Ambush has crappy spawns. Domination is almost always a stomp or be stomped. Acquisition is too easy to abuse and is too new to be completely bug free. 3 point Skirmish for new players. It gives them a homepoint to defend, and a point to contest. Good practice on holding majority points to win a match. 5 point is the real deal. Holding 3/5 is MUCH harder than 2/3. Typically boils down to holding homepoint and either a.) Two points close to eachother b.) Their homepoint and one easily defended objective. It's also much harder to anticipate the flow of battle in a 5 point. 3 point is fairly linear. Hold their homepoint and ours, or a homepoint and city.

I briefly thought about a sprint suit for start of PC's.... haha, but knew I'd loose it every time. Exactly. Besides, the best suit for PC sprint starts is either a 3x Kincat Min Scout (For distances under 400ish meters) or a 2x Kincat 1x Cardiac Min Scout (For over 500m). We did the math AGES ago for when it was more feasible to run a cardiac instead of multiple kincats, and I think that 400-500m was the cutoff point.

If I'm not mistaken, Rattati has since shuffled Stamina Pool and Regen values. Pretty sure than MN Scout Stamina Pool took a hit. I read somewhere that a 4x Red AM Scout now covers long distances faster than 3x Red MN Scout, 3x Red + 1x Green GA Scout or 4x Red GA Scout. Have not tested / confirmed. May be a good time to repeat some of our old tests :-) This is a good point. Don't forget to also factor in hack speed though, which is another reason why Min scout will have an advantage. Who cares how fast you get to the point, if another suit can get to the point a second slower, but finish the hack two seconds faster. Hmmm wild idea just popped into my brain - what if there was a game mechanic that modified the null cannons' rate-of-fire? Could be related to mods (codebreakers perhaps) or could be related to how many mercs take part in a hack. /wildidea In all reality, its all pretty non-advantageous. The difference normally isn't enough to garner an advantage. In PC, scouts are on the ground first, but dropships arrive at just about the same time. The real purpose of running both dropships and runners is so that you get links on ground and high ground simultaneously, making it hard to push you out right from the start. If they go for high links, you spawn ground and rush, or vice versa. Currently listening to: Tsukihime OST Un-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_;

Dude comes running across the corner (Yelling "FRIENDLIES INCOMING" so I wouldn't light him up.). As he clears the corner he's just screaming "FCKING TANK GET THE FCK BACK". We run. We get like 10m. Dude dies, my legs are torn to sht AGAIN and third person plays dead. After a bit, we get me up on my feet. Separated from squad with messed up radios (As we found out later, we just thought everyone else was dead), we slowly start to make our way to the exfil zone. Just two of us. We can only clear so well. I cover her while she darts across, yells for me to go. I follow, get to the corner and get shot, screaming "I'M HIT" as I go down (Arma makes you go prone if hit while sprinting). Guess what? Legs fcked up. AGAIN. Whatever, tourniquet that sucker again, we need to get moving. Except we're out of tourniquets. Drags me to the chopper. Finally find the civilians (Near a medivac chopper ironically). All KIA. We done messed up. Fix my legs and stabilize me at chopper. Exfil and debrief. So, to debrief properly, we all need to suicide and respawn. I didn't know that. People are messing around and shooting AT rockets at random crap and my ears are ringing from all the grenades. I can't hear them yell at me to respawn. So they try to teamkill me. Emphasis on try. I got shot in the head at least twice before I realized that they wanted me to respawn. Respawn myself. First words out of my mouth "Sorry, I couldn't hear you over all the grenades being thrown at me". First words out of the medics mouth "Dude, wtf, how were you still alive. You wouldn't die all freaking Op" In summary: Shot nobody, wasted a few clips of ammo. Spent a lot of time passed out or getting ready to. Shot and almost killed 4 times. 10/10 Can't wait for my next operation. Currently listening to: Tsukihime OST Un-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_;

I got messed up by backblast after the debrief (We were screwing around). Someone launched a SMAW and neglected to follow procedure. First you ask "CLEAR?" to make sure that nobody is behind you. You don't fire until you hear "ALL CLEAR" and THEN you shoot. Well he didn't. I was behind him. Was really funny to watch him turn around after shooting, and look at my dead body. Goes "Oh sh*t", and then salutes. Anyways, with mods, the game is super freaking immersive. Everything from wind to weapon jams. We use a mod that turns teamspeak into mock radio. You can hear with proxy chat, but you can also use short range or long range radio (With falloff!) so long as you are all queued into the same frequency. Combine with an AMAZING medical mod, and you got some realistic "fun" to have. I had to keep getting blood and plasma injections every 15 minutes due to my horrendous injuries (And the fact that we HAD to keep moving). You can use morphine to cleanse pain, and then use epinephrine to get their heart rate up if they go into shock. It's crazy.

Still pretty fun, learning a lot as I go. Dude! I started checking out youtube videos of Arm.. it looks so fun. Can you knife other players? Also- keep it coming. Can you capture? Depending on the mods, you can have knives. Group I'm in doesn't. We like to shoot people BEFORE it gets to knife range. If stealth is needed, they use their Special Ops forces, who typically like to just dome the guy with a silenced pistol. There isn't true "Capture", like objective control. This is Arma. No little spinny objective light and points after having enough people there. You capture a point by sitting people on it and shooting anyone who tries to take it. You have no way of knowing if an enemy controls a point other than observation. Which is why we have sniper teams and reconnaissance. There are "capture" game modes, however. Invade and Annex is one, where a large group attempts to capture the entirety of Altis at once. Maps are huge. You aren't told where you are on a map, I hope you brought a GPS or know where you are via landmarks. All locations are given through bearings and co-ordinates. Altis is huge, clocking in at almost 270 km2. Stratis is the smaller sister island, and is only 20 km2. There are no carebears in Arma. Just the well trained and the dead. As an example, I'll use yesterdays mini op. We tried driving through an ambush, when my driver yelled "HIT" and I heard one of our tires pop. Since nobody else can hear us, I have to go to my radio to tell the convoy. We bring ourselves off the street and park in front of a house for cover. GTFO and set up defenses. So the car we are protecting hung back when it heard ambush. The other humvee came up to support. They dismount and engage on foot as well (Humvee's are actually sht for protection. Bullet proof glass my ass.). We decide to try and bug out with the other squad as support. Hop in gunner spot, waiting for driver. About 10 seconds pass. I hop out and sure enough, driver is dead next to car. Well sht. Squads break off, and they send the medic to us. Now it gets interesting, we are both in cover, and there is enemies around, but we aren't really sure WHERE. I see movement from the north and yell contact and start firing. Drop target, all good. We connect with other squad via radio and then inform each other of our positions to avoid friendly fire. I mention more movement to the north and ask if we have friendlies in that area. Negative, open fire. Chaos and confusion are only beaten by training and communication. No carebears here, marksmanship is mandatory. Idiots aren't allowed on ops. You play smart and careful or you get yourself and the whole team killed. I love it. I don't have to deal with idiot blueberries anymore Currently listening to: Tsukihime OST Un-Retired PC Scout.

(C-130 was bugged to hell for some reason, Op name was changed for this ) Paradrop at night at rendezvous point around 1km out from city. Move into city, head to mosque to rescue POW's. Once mosque is secure, provide cover for POW Exfil, followed by exfil for squads. Debrief. So, I've never paradropped before. Totally cool though, the other recruits had not either. We all get a brief run down of how it works. Interior light is red for prep, green for drop. On Green, the man closest to the outside of the chopper drops. You wait "Four One Thousand" to pull chute. After some drops, you wait 4-one-thousand to drop yourself, cycle continues until chopper is empty. Control speed to hit ground at ~10 km/h, brace legs for impact. Radio that you dropped with status (If you did it wrong, you'd mess up your legs). My drop goes just fine. We are told to rendezvous at blue chemlight. Get on hill, spot chemlight and head up, radioing direction so I don't get shot. We form up and get into a column to head into town. Almost IMMEDIATELY run into patrol. We have a brief firefight on the hill, with me sticking close to another recruit. Good for him actually, he doesn't know how to patch wounds. I do because I read the entire medic training doctrine. I patch him up, and he covers me while someone else who knows how to medic comes and helps me. We form back up, send a two man to the north to do light recon and head out. Moving in staggered column again, we move until I spot a Car. Radio call car with direction, whole column goes prone and investigates. Then someone fcks up. Fun fact: Laser lights show up REALLY WELL on Infrared/Night Vision. Which most of us were wearing. Including the enemies. He shines his freaking laser light AT THE CAR. Thing stops. We basically all know whats going to happen at once. SL just screams "FIND HARD COVER" and we book it. I don't have much near me, so crawl to a tree. Dude behind me has NOTHING and gets lit up. After we get cover, SL instructs us to head to compound SW for regroup. I look at poor dude behind me, He's hurt BAD, and in clear line of fire. Truck is still there. Taking him with me would kill us both. I leave him. Sprint up the hill, zig zagin like crazy. Regroup on hill, I help SL clear out the compound buildings. Regroup, get in contact with North squad and they provide cover as we move up. Run into north team up the road to push in to city. We know they're friendlies. We even radio it in. Someone still shot them. Damn recruits (I say that like I'm not one ). Get him back up on feet, hit more contacts, slowly work our way into city. Squads split again, 2 man squad to provide overwatch. We move NW into city. Then sht hits the fan. Contacts EVERYWHERE. North squad reports heavy contact. SL and one other go to reinforce. Plex (My FTL), takes my fireteam and we keep heading NW to get to mosque and pull fire. Then Plex goes down, "No amount of bandages will fix this down". Radio in that FTL is down. Silence. Oh great. Time to step up. Ask for a radio check from any who can hear, give status as well. A few checks later, and yup. Everyone is down except for 3 recruits and 2 privates. And the privates are beta as hell. So I take command. We move up slowly, heading to the mosque. Get pinned down by heavy fire, start fighting. We do pretty well, until the guy in the back got shot. I pull back from cover to go bandage him and see a target at the same time he sees me. I win the fight, but I'm f*cked up. So, for the record, the only two people who know how to bandage people properly are wounded. I start to work on him, and he passes out. Bandage his wounds, but don't have time to administer morphine and epi until I PASS OUT. And now for one of the funniest moments of the night. Other guys clean up targets. They come back and find us. I can hear them, but I can't talk. It's like listening to freaking witch doctors. They had NO IDEA how to patch me up. Now, the OTHER guy is fine, he's just passed out from pain. He comes in and out of consciousness, and every time he wakes up, he says "I NEED MORPHINE". Finally, Operation leader has some mercy. He lets a few guys spawn back in with fresh med kits. I get back on my feet, and then get my buddy up. Push into Mosque.

Someone forgets 360 degree security, get flanked and wounded. Patch us both up. Peek around corner, find sniper. We use smoke to push up and kill him from cover. Now the fun part. We have to go through the front of the mosque now. We are fairly certain they are watching the front. FTL says to push in after I hear the boom, he tosses a flashbang. I run up. It wears off JUST as I almost hit cover. Go down, light up front door from prone position (they can't see me since they're standing behind the door with a windowhole.). Team runs up. I'm hurt so bad it isn't funny. They spend a minute or two and 20+ bandages getting me up. Can't run, legs are messed up. Push into building, enemy throws a bad frag and kills most of the POW's by accident. FTL throws a bad frag into the room (Now that everyone important is dead) to kill target. Bad frag, ends up basically in my face. We are in a single column in a passageway made for 1 person at a time. I don't have time to get out of the way. I TAKE THAT SHT LIKE A CHAMP. FTL: Uh... Kaisar. You okay? Me: No. FTL: Can you move? Me: Yup. FTL: What the hell. So they clear room and ready for exfil. Hop on chopper, they bandage me tight. Lost a ton of blood though. On our way back, we're chatting about the mission and stuff. Then I hear my heartbeat. Oh no, that means I'm about to pass out. Mention I'm about to pass out, they can't hear me over chopper and conversations. I pass out. They keep talking for a bit, then someone notices. "Oh sht, Kaisar passed out. Yo, hurry up and get to base". They land, I fall out the chopper right as we land, get dragged to suppy crate. Pilot comes to help with medical. And now for the funniest moment I've ever had in Arma. "What the hell happened to this guy, he's a mummy with all these bandages" "Uh, he got hit by a lot of fire and a grenade or two" "How the hell is he still alive? Hell, he was even AWAKE for half the chopper ride" "Ugh, he needs morphine and more bandages" "GOT IT" "GOT IT "..." "Wait did we all just apply morphine to him?" "Yeah" "Yup" "SH*T, you're gonna kill his heart rate. Start CPR and get him some Epi." "DON'T DIE ON US KAISAR" "Screw it, get him a PAK" For those who don't know, PAK's are Personal Aid Kits. Takes about 2 minutes, but it basically fully heals someone. The 2 minute struggle is where the worry is though". "Check his heart rate and BP every 30 seconds, do CPR if he needs it. Don't give him Epi or Morphine though, he's had enough already, don't want to overload his system." So I get 2 minutes of being told to hang on and told how long it will take to finish. It works, I get up and start laughing my ass off at the whole situation. 10/10. Half the fun in Arma is the stuff that happens in between firefights and operations. Can't wait for the FULL OP on Saturday. Gonna have around 30-40 people all doing this together. Currently listening to: Tsukihime OST Un-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_;

Honestly don't think Min is viable without knives unless desperate for best hacks. Listen. Scanning means sh*t on scouts. Nobody in PC damps excepts scouts and the rare logi. Since only scouts damp, you really have no reason to run scans. You would have to be so close for them to effective. Not worth it when you can run HP and survive. eWAR is dead except for Active Scanners and Dampening. It's kinda sad actually. Your Cal fit would be destroyed. You need both of those lows for damps, otherwise you will be permascanned and destroyed. Min scout is a great shotgun suit. You just have to abuse your speed and shielding.

Advanced fit I came up ended up being same as my NK sprint fit for starting, personally I think more fun can be had with the NK's then SG and it might even be a bit more effective. Proto fit did not perform well with three red jars, couldn't fit enough shields to survive being tapped. Changed Proto fit to have 2 red and one blue which allowed 3 enhanced shields. Personally found the fit fairly underwhelming. Although it was a sub 90k ISK which is cheap for proto, it didn't perform nearly as effectively as other fits I have. I also found although I could sprint forever, the reduced speed from 3 to 2 reds made me feel like i was going slow in a fitting that need to go faster for it to work. Although you could have some fun and kill some guys in this fit, against any decent players you'd loose a ton of ISK IMO. Summary, shield and speed tanking a min scout was not very effective for me. Although some players can speed tank, at this time I find it personally under performing. I do wonder if a keyboard mouse combo would work better for speed tanking since you could insta sprint after shooting, however with a ds3 it didn't not work very well. That is a terrible fit. Here is the only Min Scout shotgun fit you need. 1 Red solves almost all mobility issues. 2 damps is far more important than speed. What you want is that MASSIVE shield buffer to keep you alive while you sprint away. You have decent regen and delays. You just need enough speed to get around a corner. Once you hit the corner, you will have all the time in the world to do what you want. Sprint down some stairs, set up an ambush, keep running whatever. You will NEVER dodge bullets with speed in this game. That time is dead. What you need is 1 red for overall mobility, and to stick close to cover 24/7. Damps so that you don't get permascanned and locked down. Currently listening to: Tsukihime OST Un-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_;

It is pretty much the perfect fit. Alternatively, if you're not getting much use out of the RE, consider dropping it and upgrading the Ferroscale to Comlpex, giving you 513 EHP with no movement penalty whatsoever. I've only just come up with that idea recently though, so I haven't had much opportunity to actually test it out yet. Excuse me while I vomit from seeing armor on a min. scout. It's effectiveness is undeniable. Since unlocking slots, I've got a Minja fit with armour too. The meta has changed, unless someone can tell me the original story of why armour on a min scout is wrong, I think that's probably a tired old story by now :) If you're happy with 24dB and 9.35 m/s, tell me what should go in that third slot? On the ADV suit, you already have to compromise with a basic rifle and an ADV shield extender. Why shouldn't I put armour in that third low? Coz lore? Or something else? Why are people so violently opposed to putting armour on a suit that has hi/lo slot balance? Many other fits don't go with the lore but I don't see people puking over that ;-) Main reason why armor is bad on a Min Scout: If you want to be competitive (i.e. Not scanned every 5 seconds) you NEED two dampeners. So now what? You have 1 low slot left. Let me remind you that you have the HIGHEST BASE SPRINT SPEED IN THE GAME. Kincats are simply too good to pass up on the fit. 1 gets you to 9.35, which is insane compared to most other ground units. Speed and Stealth are the calling cards of the Scout, and the Min scout all the more. But lets say that you need more health. Why not run armor? Because you only have 1 slot. Throwing on more armor is bad because you don't have a reliable way of regen on it. Base is too low, and reactives slow you down. Not only that, but the MOMENT you put on a plate, you become a worse version of the Gal scout. Gal scout can run a higher overall HP buffer because of two low slots and higher base HP. He can run a ferro and rep with two damps. Or maybe even a reactive and kincat (my favorite). His regen is high enough to keep him alive, on top of a healthy shield buffer. On you? It's simply sub optimal. Can you do it? Yeah. Can you do well with it? Probably. But be prepared to get your sh*t pushed in if anyone ever tries to punish you for it. You still can't tank a shotgun shell, and you're now much slower than all the other scouts, for little to no benefit. On the fit you have above? The moment I see armor on you, I'm switching to a damped speed tanked shotgun assault. I can tank a shotgun shell, and am just as damped as you, and faster. You'll get destroyed. In all honesty, if you want more HP as a scout, go Gal or Amarr. They're the real fighters in the scout world. Min and Cal are more skirmishers. Get in, do damage, get out and regen. Gal and Amarr can practically live on the front lines with high enough armor regen and damps. Currently listening to: Tsukihime OST Re-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_;

Two complex damps not only puts you under 21 db Gal logi scans, but also under 20db inner scan rings (the most common precision, if I'm not mistaken). Now, on my advanced fit I run an enhanced + complex damp, which gets me to 20db. Perhaps it would be useful to drop one and go armour, but as someone who can't not run uplinks, I just don't have the PG available. I suspect that with most fits, the PG could be better spent on shields, equipment or weapons, rather than armour. A kincat is almost always the best option for the third slot. A Codebreaker is a potential option too. Speed and stealth, as Ghost says, is what a scouts are about. Otherwise you'd be better off with something else. Just wish Ghost would listen to what people are saying a little more. I did say *if you are happy with 24dB and 9.35 m/s* Pretty obvious he doesn't really see much else except end-game, and there's nothing wrong with that, just that's not what was being discussed. The question was, if you're happy with 24dB and 9.35 m/s, what would you put in the 3rd low? Obviously that is not an end-game consideration, which is why I made it clear in the first place. Missed that part. Here's my answer to that. I'd put in another dampener. Now I'm even happier. Currently listening to: Tsukihime OST Re-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_;

YES! I will definitely look into this. Make the cloak into a perfect visual camouflage. Literally invisible standing still. Barely distorted moving. Largely distorted sprinting (But still less visible than it is right now). Buff total charge, increase drain with speed. Skill provides recharge bonus. Weapons CANNOT be fired from cloak. You must MANUALLY deactivate it (Which then requires you to switch weapons.) You can keep the decloak and cloak sounds. Knowing that someone is around is healthy, but they still don't know where you are. Scouts can couple this cloak with proper dampening to become VERY hard to pin down without powerful scans. If a large force is moving through, they can stand still and keep cloaked long enough for them to pass. Right now, if you have the misfortune of having a large group run by you, you HAVE to risk running it. They very well might stick around longer than your charge. New changes make it easier to slowly and carefully maneuver away from danger. While I have my wishlist out: Buff scan range modules. I want meaningful passive scans again on scouts. Cloaking reduces scan range by 100%. I wish I could underline this twice. Its an escape and movement tool. Not an observation one (At least outside of comm chatter). Not sure about the numbers, but I would like 2x precision scouts to be able to pick up most scouts in the inner ring again (not sure about the range on that). Would make it useful to carry a Cal scout around to sniff out cloaked damped scouts again. I'm trying to tailor these to make sure the follow happens: A.) Cloaks are properly used escape and infiltration tools B.) Re-introduction of useful eWAR without going back to permascan days. C.) Giving incentive to upgrade cloak to 5 and use it on scouts again. I'll be honest. I don't run the cloak anymore. At all. I run uplinks and RE's. Because cloaks won't keep you alive (Against smart opponents), and the team can use my uplinks and RE's even when I'm dead. Ghost out. EDIT: Oh, and fluxes disable cloaks. That is all.

Ghost Kaisar Fatal Absolution 12	Posted - 2015.08.28 17:00:00 - [1752] - Quote Radiant Pancake3 wrote: now at school playing pokemon. Because boredom. Did that senior year as well. Try the Nuzlock challenge. Lots of fun on an emulator. RULES: Any Pok+¬mon that faints is considered dead, and must be released or put in the Pok+¬mon Storage System permanently. The player may only catch the first Pok+¬mon encountered in each area, and none else. If the first Pok+¬mon encountered faints or flees, there are no second chances. If the first encounter in the area is a Double Battle in dark grass, the player may choose which of the two Pok+¬mon they would like to catch. While not exactly a definite rule, the general consensus is that players must also nickname all of their Pok+¬mon, for the sake of forming stronger emotional bonds. Also not a definite rule, but the general consensus is that a black out/white out is considered to be "game over", even if there are Pok+¬mon left in the PC. Strongly implied, though not explicitly mentioned in the comic, is the stipulation that the player can use only Pok+¬mon they have captured themselves, meaning traded Pok+¬mon, mystery gifts, etc., are prohibited. Trading and retrading the same Pok+¬mon (for the purpose of evolving a Graveler, for example) is something of a gray area, and may fall under optional rules. As of White: Hard-Mode Episode 3, it is implied that the player can accept Pok+¬mon that are received freely from NPCs. Also strongly implied is a prohibition against voluntarily resetting and reloading the game when things go wrong. Being able to do so would render all of the other rules pointless. OPTIONAL RULES Starter Pok+¬mon is based off the player's Trainer ID number. If the last number is 1-3 the player starts with a Grass type, 4-6 is Fire type, 7-9 is Water type, 0 is the player's choice. Species/Dupes Clause: Adjusting the first encounter rule to prevent the player from having to catch multiple of the same Pok+¬mon, for the sake of variety. Generally this means that the trainer can keep fighting Pok+¬mon in the area until one is encountered that has not been caught yet, which then immediately counts as the first encounter. As an extension, setting a limit on how much Dupes Clause can trigger in an area. If that limit is reached, no Pok+¬mon can be caught in that area (alternatively; the trainer has to settle for the last allowed duplicate to trigger the clause). Not officially enforcing the rules until the player has Pok+¬ Balls and can catch Pok+¬mon. For example, the PoochyenaRS/ZigzagoonE that the player has to save Professor Birch from is not counted as the first encounter on the route, and not counting any other encounters as such until they can catch. Likewise, in the games where the rival battle is immediately after getting the starter Pok+¬mon, the "any that faint must be released" rule is not enforced at that time. Use the same amount of Pok+¬mon as the opponent during a Gym battle or rival battle. Going to options and making the battle style "set", leaving the player unable to switch out. Releasing the starter Pok+¬mon after the first wild Pok+¬mon has been caught. Banning the use of Potions and healing items, relying only on Pok+¬mon Centers for healing. Banning the use of Pok+¬mon Centers, relying only on Potions and healing items for healing. Limiting Pok+¬mon Center visits to a certain number per town. Banning the use of held items. Limiting the number of Pok+¬ Balls to purchase per Pok+¬ Mart. Banning the use of Master Balls. Rather than releasing the Pok+¬mon, it can be permanently boxed, migrated, or transferred with Pok+¬ Transfer should it happen to faint. The player may not evolve captured Pok+¬mon, but evolved Pok+¬mon may be caught. Turning the difficulty on to Challenge Mode if playing Black 2 and White 2, which increases the levels of opposing Trainers. No catching/using Legendary Pok+¬mon. As a mercy rule, allowing 1-3 "second chances" or revives of fallen team members. As another mercy rule, if the player runs into a Shiny Pok+¬mon, the player may still catch it, regardless of whether or not it is the first encounter in the area. It also does not need to be released if it faints. As another mercy rule, each Gym Badge acts as a checkpoint. If the player gets a game over, they can start from when they got their previous Gym Badge. If the player has no Pok+¬mon that can use a certain field move that is required to continue through any given point of the game, they may catch another Pok+¬mon that can learn said field move. However, it cannot be used in battle for any reason, and must be released, permanently boxed, or migrated as soon as the player gets another Pok+¬mon that can use said field move. Modifying the "first encounter only" rule for the Safari Zone, sometimes allowing one encounter for each area, or until they catch one Pok+¬mon in the entire area, and vice versa. Banning the use of Pok+¬ Marts. Disallow fleeing. Setting a level limit based on the next Gym Leader's/Champion's highest leveled Pok+¬mon. What must happen to any team members that surpass that limit before taking on the Gym Leader or Elite Four is up to the player. Banning Pok+¬ Balls entirely, any Pok+¬mon obtained must be either given to the player or hatched from an Egg. Banning use of the day care to breed or level up Pok+¬mon. Turning off the Exp. Share. Banning use of certain features that make the game easier, such as Pok+¬mon-Amie, the DexNav, or Super Training. Some of the best fun I've ever had in pokemon. I underlined the optional rules I used. I did it on Emerald, and I think I might actually do another runthrough now. I never actually finished my last one. Got to Fortree city before life picked up again.

Keep working on those flanking routes, shenanigans and backstab techniques. I don't think that Rattati subscribes to the "scouts are supposed to be bad" model. If our efficiency relative to other classes is down (and it probably is) I suspect he'll do something about it rather than make excuses for it. Dust is many things, but first it is a shooter. We're all here to kill things, and if Scouts are overly inefficient enough at killing, I believe changes will be made. So keep doing what you're doing. Or skill GalLogi and ride out the storm with more reward, less effort and far less frustration. Like me ;-) Logis routinely do well averaging only 2-4 kills in PC. Scouts aren't bad, just not able to take on tanked assaults suits up front. I would hate for someone to buff scout HP or something to compensate for the lack of killing. The LAST thing we want is for scouts to become viable slayer suits again. I think we all hated that time a little on the inside. It was such a mockery of how this game was supposed to be played.

I know many argued about certain items you could buy etc... but I never really considered it pay to win until this stupid warbarge damage bonus factory. I hated it when they announced it and I still do. Apparently you can get it to level 8 now which means 9% bonus to damage. It's impossible to get to this level without buying components for aurum. This damage bonus has a large direct impact on TTK in game and directly makes one player stats wise better. Another dark day in Dust. I wonder if that bonus is applied flat, like the commando bonus. If so, you could potentially have a commando with 19% increased BASE damage, with the possibility for another 13% with two damage mods. Throw in some profile bonuses, and things get scary. I'd do the math, but I'm still entirely sure how it's calculated. My gut says that It would be lumped into the base, meaning that you would have 19% increase before anything was subtracted. I checked protofits, but I'm not entirely sure how they calculate things. I work backwords, and my early proofs seem right. Then I try the whole things and get leagues off of them. All I know is that 19% increased base damage without stacking penalties is VERY scary. Currently listening to: Tsukihime OST Re-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_;

I'm not happy go lucky everyone lives and gets a happy ending. PC's will die, Party Friends will die, NPC's will die PEOPLE WILL DIE. Be ready for it.

I can't find my old quote, but I'll say it here instead of linking it. If you are dying 15+ times in a min scout YOU ARE DOING SOMETHING WRONG. Or, at the very least the TEAM is doing something wrong. If you are dying 20 times in a scout suit speed hacking, you had BETTER be getting at least 15 successful hacks off. Which means that your team should be securing 15 hacks. Which begs the question; WHY ARE YOU FLIPPING A POINT 15 TIMES? You need one of the following: A.) Better Defense in the case that you are flipping those points B.) Better awareness of what you can safely take if you're dying after the hack C.) Better sense if you keep dying on the hack. Why do I say this? Because I had a friend who is the PRECISE REASON why I made these posts to begin with. Gavrillo Princip was the worlds worst speed hacker. He died 15+ times in a fight getting hacks, often only having the team follow up around twice, and securing it once. That is a MASSIVE problem. 15 clones from a single player every match is a problem in the long run. In a 3x fight to flip, that's over 45 clones from a single person, or around 10% of the total if you're launching 450. 10% of deaths, from 6.25% of the players on your side. Bad math.

What would i do? Defending two points is easy peasy. Formula stays the same no matter what map. First, links. Put links outside of the city. These are "Emergency Links". If everything goes wrong, you can spawn back on these and try again. Second, put links in the city. For reinforcements and your own pleasure. Third, identify the least defended objective. Don't try for an objective with more than two people on it. Once objective is found, taking it is simple. Run around the point, try to find out what you're up against. MELEE any link you find. Sweeping links is the first job every time. Figure out what they're running. A heavy and a logi are engaged differently than a scout and assault. 1 guy on point? Kill him, sweep links, flux objective, hack, defend. Simple. Don't leave until the point flips. Two guys? Depends on who is there. If there is EVER a scout as part of the two, take him down first. You can't hack a point with a scout around. It's suicide. If its a heavy + Logi? Logi first, heavy second. Lone heavies are easy kills. Lone logis are more slippery. Two heavies? RE bait. Before you start shooting, kill as many links as possible. You want to force them to spawn on the point. Kill the guy farthest from the point first, then QUICKLY try to kill the other man. Speed is of the essence here. Once both are dead, start hacking immediately. Make sure to flux the point first. PROTIP: After the first guy is killed, you should be heading towards the point to find the other guy. Toss a flux at this time on the point. Saves time. Once hacked, CLEAR LINKS. KILL ANYONE WHO TRIES TO SPAWN IN ON THEM. Once links are clear, and point is hacked, defense is the next step. Defend it until it flips. Then put an RE on it. Head to next point, rinse and repeat. If you're fast enough, you should ALWAYS have one point contested at least. If they try to take the previous point, hack the other, put an RE on it, and then head back to the other one. If they defend that one, you get a free point. If not, you play ring around the rosie, but you are far faster than them. If you start running into a squad in the city (Like around 3-6 people), just harass them. You've done your job if they sent 3-6 people to deal with one guy.

Utility fit. With only 75 shields, yet decent regen stats, I consider the extender necessary. Its a quick, and effective way of keeping your overall HP higher, since shields still regen much faster than armor. Biotic is another one of those items I consider too good on scouts to pass up. Just one gives you tangible benefits, due to your high base speed. Slayer fit has one damp so he can fit more HP and regen. Damp fit uses two to avoid detection, with a reactive and kincat to keep his speed and health up. AScR + Flaylock is for flexibility in engagements. You can easily handle other scouts in CQC with their meagre health, provided you get the drop on them (You should, Amarr scout and all). Also gives you the ability to operate at range if need be. Slayer sacrifices secondary equip for more fitting power. Utility uses links to support team. Currently listening to: Tsukihime OST Re-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_;

I don't have a PS4: not sure I would buy one for one game, no matter how much I love you all. I do have a PC, more than capable of playing modern games, but not sure I would play DUST on it without the existing community. Not sure many will be in the same boat; I think I'm just at a point where I'm not sure I will buy another console, otherwise I'd be buying a PS4 this year. Twitter tho.

I couldn't commit suicide coz I wasn't alive, so all that was left after faffing about for a few minutes was to leave battle. Joined another one, played it out, and lost. Imagine my surprise to see the win 30 battles mission increase by one. Checked my wallet, saw two payments for finishing battles within a few minutes of each other. One win, one loss. I assumed that the win was the battle I had the glitch with. So I thought I would try an experiment. I joined a new battle and left the battle after deploying to the MCC. Then I joined another one. I completed the 2nd one, and took a look at my wallet. Two payments for finishing two battles. It wasn't a result of the deploy glitch at all - it appears to be repeatable and easy to do. No idea if I could do this say, five times in a row, but considering the current event, and the fact that wining 30 battles in ten days is a tall order for me, it seems a little crap that this is exploitable. What's to stop me just queuing up over and over to get me some free wins that I don't even have to invest much time into? Even the standard daily missions that require wins can be exploited this way, and it is gonna screw with Scotty. Sooooo...is this common knowledge? PS. Don't hate me for intentionally leaving a battle, I'm not a good enough player for that to have caused imbalance lol, and I decided it was an important experiment to determine whether it's an exploit that needs to be reported.

I've run nothing but proto for the past 6 months. All on less than 20 mil. Only run what you can afford to lose. If you only have 20mil, how can you afford 200k a pop for as many Nothi NN's as someone has? Hmm... perhaps i should test this theory. I have been offering 100k a pop for Nothi NN's (even though i've never used one). I'm surprised you pay 200k haven't seen many people wanting them. On a side note, dang, you guys are not nearly as rich as I would think. FYI, I need a district to test a theory. Will pay a finders fee of 2 mil to whoever helps secure me a quick district. Because making money is easy and I don't lose Nothi's often. Not only that, but I doubt most of you have over 6 of them. 5 for a mil is a decent price for me, and it gets people to part with them quite often. As for not being as rich as you think, I would have thought that was obvious. The people you hear about that have 300 mil+ have done one of two things: A.) Been very good at saving ISK B.) Have been exploiting ways of making it. PC was super exploitable in the past. Ark and I didn't take part in it. The most money I've ever actually had in the game was in DNS era, when I was paid 20 mil a week to basically be on standby, PC ready the entire week. I blew most of it in PC's back then, and gave the rest of it away. I had at peak, 300 mil, which I blew on learning to fly ADS's and giving it away. Came back to dust with 140 mil. Spent 120 of it on skins. Re-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_; If you see me on Dust, my computer must be dead.

Will it be usable? Think it's +20% damage and -30% RoF when compared to the Vanilla Shotgun. CRG-3 base is 42. KR-17 is 50.4. IIRC our last experiment correctly, the CRG-3 aimed center mass hits for an average of 450 shield dmg at 4.9m. CRG-3: Effect of Pellet Loss (within 5m) 12/12 - 637 dmg 11/12 - 584 dmg 10/12 - 531 dmg 09/12 - 478 dmg 08/12 - 425 dmg We'd concluded that inside of 5m, 8-9 out of 12 pellets hit target when vanilla shotgun was aimed center mass. Breach will behave a tad differently. The tighter spread potentially means less pellet loss within optimal range. KR-17: Effect of Pellet Loss (within 5m) 12/12 - 765 dmg 11/12 - 701 dmg 10/12 - 637 dmg 09/12 - 573 dmg 08/12 - 510 dmg * Calculations account for hybrid profile (+10% damage vs shields) and assume pro(5) operator (+15% shield dmg). Calculations do not include damage amps or account for warbarge bonus. Oversimplified Rule of Thumb: Hits for about 100 more damage per blast and deals damage more reliably at range. Personal Expectation: The new breach will make for a decent gun, unless you're blasting an armor tanker. I guess i'll have to give it a go and see. I feel like it will still underwelm but be usable. Breach has always been fun for BLAPPING people. The expanded clip size will help it greatly. Especially if you know how to double shot glitch it Instakills everything in the game.

I've heard you mention the glitch, but I don't think I've ever witnessed it. I wonder if it'll be fixed by the increased clip size. It won't. It applies to more than just the shotgun. It works with Flaylocks, Sniper rifles (But is useless on it), Shotguns, Tac Ar's, etc. It works with a LOT of weapons for some reason, you just need it to have no charge up time IIRC. It's also REALLY situational and hard to pull off. Here is how to do it. 1.) Equip Weapon. 2.) MELEE 3.) In mid melee animation, press and hold the fire button. 4.) Profit. If done right, you should fire right as the melee animation ends, firing 2 shots from your clip at once. Splash radius is unaffected, damage is. It literally fires two shots at once. You can't "Hold" the charge either, hence why its hard to use effectively. It is AMAZING for assassinations though, especially when combined with melee damage. I do it on a Min Scout with a single mybo and a normal shotgun. Melee + 2Shot kills almost anything. Re-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_; Wanna play EVE? 30 day trial here

I only do it for fun now in my Calmando (And love every last hatemail for it), but you have to be god-tier sniper to not be considered a waste of a player spot. Any good reason why not to increase movement speed while crouched? Always aimed with two sticks when sniping in every other shooter I've played. Why not (1) reduce sniper rifle sway while crouched and (2) increase movement speed while crouched? How about we get rid of such a stupid mechanic, and instead severely reduce initial scope sway. I don't see how crouch speed needs to come into this at all. I understand they don't want quickscoping, but 100% sensitivity being too slow and the horrible hit detection make that non factors. If I'm going to snipe and not be an immobile, useless player, I NEED to be able to quickly identify, aim, and kill targets without fighting the game itself to do so. You want to snipe on the move? Now possible, but your range is limited due to natural sway. You want to be careful and line up a long range shot? You're going to have to crouch for a bit to line up the shot. Re-Retired PC Scout.

Shield regen lets you pop in and out of cover at different sides of a flank to engage. Higher speed and stealth lets you dictate range. They start to move up? Cloak, fall back and repeat. Did the CA Scout actually get buffed? It was my understanding that its shield properties (excluding dmg threshold) were held constant; I'm pretty sure the floor was raised around it. It gained from the changes. All caldari suits got buffed in terms of delay and depleted. Cal scout's regen amount didn't change, but the downtime is decreased significantly. Damp+Kincat is still the way to run it though. On a flank fit, I'd probably run 3x shield, recharger, damp, kincat. Re-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_; Wanna play EVE? 30 day trial here

Was surprised by the lack of AM Logi kills. Figured these would be a PC staple. You haven't played PC in quite a while. Link changes make running the Amarr un-necessary, since their links are only a little bit better at most. Better to just carry LP Viziams and run a suit that has a better bonus, like the Gal or Min.

I really hope that CCP takes a hard look at the races that don't even show up and buff them in some way. They are obviously either under-performing or lacking a useful role. So I've not actually looked at the data but it's not as simple as this is it? If a role is under-used, couldn't it just be that nobody has bothered to skill into it? It could be as good as other roles, but if you've already got something useful, why would you skill into another? Thinking previous FotM components and the like. Now I re-read your post...yeah so lacking a useful role might make sense, but that doesn't require a buff, it requires a lower-level role rework. Buffing them in some way refers to the role re-work. Forgive me for not wording that well. In short; they need changes. In some way, shape, or form. They are out of the meta because someone does their job better, or because their ability is not useful at the moment. Re-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_; Wanna play EVE? 30 day trial here

EDIT: In all seriousness, the 5% reduction to feedback is silly. The damage is minute in almost all cases. Don't even think about reducing seize duration. Damage and Seize exist as balancing points for the weapons strengths. Find different avenues to buff it. I have to make it different from the Amarr Assault in some way, I mean the Amarr Assault is literally better than the Commando in almost every aspect. Amarr Commando deals far more damage. 10% base increase is huge, you get more out of one damage mod than an assault gets with 3. Personally, I think the Amarr Commando needs a 1-4 slot layout. Let them be more tanky. I've always heard people complain that a well fit Amarr assult is harder to take down than a commando, which is the main problem. My Minmando fit for shields is amazingly tanky. Like 500+ shields, 300+ armor and speed/regen to boot. Amarr can only really get a bit of extra tank and regen with two slots. Letting it run 2 plates 2 reps might be a huge boon for it. EDIT: Two plates two reps gives it 250 shields as buffer, with 900 armor and 20 HP/s to back it up. Run a damage mod for 17% extra damage on your laser weapons. Bring it. Re-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_; Wanna play EVE? 30 day trial here

I think it also does more damage with either variant of the Scr before overheating. That's due to how the laser rifle works, since its damage is based off its heat percentage. Scrambler is affected in a similar fashion, but only in a perfect environment. It lets you shoot off more shots before overheat. You won't realistically hit that cap without some damn impressive trigger fingers or a modded controller. Idea: Change the Assault bonus Amarr Assault gets a reduction to laser weaponry charge time and cooldown. In short, it can charge up quicker and cool down faster. Amarr commando gets a bonus to damage and heat generation. It deals damage better and longer, but requires longer times in between fights. Commando gets to be amazing with the LR and be better at dealing with hardened targets (Being able to hit harder for longer). Assault now thrives in being able to rapidly engage and re-engage targets (matches the idea of assaults being faster and more versatile). Sound good? Re-Retired PC Scout.

Who's going to be "ticked off" by the changes in Warlords 1.3? I'll be shocked if it isn't us. While Rattati has largely been silent these last few months, I have to give him more credit than that. I still have confidence in Rattati, but we've witnessed firsthand what a single CPM member with an anti-scout agenda can pull off. Realistically, I don't see things getting better for us balance-wise any time soon. That's because scouts are overall doing well. The suit doesn't need changes. At all (Short of the Amarr who needs a decent bonus). Active scanners need a pass. Range extenders need a buff. That's it. Scouts are not slayer suits. eWAR and utility. I've never once pulled out my scout and thought "I would be better off in another suit", except for when my goal was simply to slaughter people. I pull out my scout when I don't want to be scanned, and when I want to do sneaky stuff. Guess what? WORKING AS FUCKING INTENDED. They have a role they excel in, its just one major aspect of that identity is being encroached on HARD by another single suit. They don't have their eWAR aspect as well as they should. Right now scouts are really low HP. I'm fine with this. They need to stay that way. If you want to have good eWAR and be hard to scan, you CAN'T have competitive levels of HP. Being unable to get point blank is also beneficial. We don't want 1.6 slayer scouts again. Giving assaults and logistics ways to fight back is a healthy system to keep the scouts power level in check. Also: the tirade I keep hearing about "a single member of the CSM ruining everything" is getting super old. You're literally just using the CSM as a whipping post any time changes you want don't go through. Listen to me: They aren't the end all of game design. They've had things they want to go through get shot down by CCP, and also things they DON'T want to go through get thrown in as well. They're a voice of the community and soundboard for CCP. That doesn't guarantee that they will have any effect though. CCP can ignore them if they freaking want to. So don't just yell at the CPM any time something happens that you don't like. CCP gets half the blame as well. Re-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_; Wanna play EVE? 30 day trial here

Instead, Rattati compromised between our position (the right) and Zatara & Co.'s (the wrong) and we ended up with what we have today: underpowered Scout EWAR, overpowered Active Scans, a terrible AM Scout, Logis with better scans than Scouts, etc. Without Zatara's white-tagged red herring "blame it all on Scout EWAR", Rattati would've focused on fixing the actual causes of Assault Lite. So yes, I hold him responsible for the mess he left. I don't think you understand what I'm saying. CPM CAN have influence on CCP. However, CCP is just as much to blame for what you don't like. Do you honestly think that ONE guy strongarmed Rattati into making those changes? Like everyone else was against it, as well as Rattati and he just kept insisting until it went through? As for the rest: Strong Active scans are still necessary to keep scouts honest running damps. Scout eWAR was overnerfed, but rightfully so, I remember the Cal Scout permascanning hell very well in PC. AM Scout has always been terrible, Logi's only became super strong passive scan machines AFTER fallout was implemented, and even then, almost nobody runs it. Only ones I can think of are MIn Logi's who follow fatties around. The current situation is an amalgamation of various changes over time. Pinning it all on one guy is a tad extreme. Sounds to me like you want a scapegoat. Re-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_; Wanna play EVE? 30 day trial here

Let's assume that he didn't know what he was doing when he shafted Scouts and created an overpowered GalLogi. When he realized after the fact that he had replaced one form of imbalance with another, did he set out to correct it? If it had been you or me or even Breakin who accidentally gifted ourselves with something overpowered or, for that matter, inadvertently did undue harm to another class or unit, we would have made it our mission to set things right. No doubt about it. We'd make it a point to fix whatever we broke. Did Zatara put his white tags to use and make things right? Or even try? As far as I know, he never parted with a word about it. It has been an entire year, and everything he broke (knowingly or unknowingly) remains broken. Not a word from Zatara about fixing the OP GalLogi he created. Rather odd, given how much he had to say about Scout permascan. Not a word about undoing the overdone cloak nerfs. Not a word about righting at least some of the EWAR imbalance he'd championed. Not a word. Best I recall, he spammed his overpowered GalLogi for a while, then left DUST to play Destiny. Probably sick with himself. I know I would've been.

Sure, Shotgun GA Scouts still have a place in PC, but are MN Scouts holding their own in competitive play? Are CA Scouts providing the competitive long-range, low-intensity recon their racial bonuses tell us they're designed to provide? What of AM Scouts? What's their job again? Say we buffed Range Extenders. Would that fix AM and CA Scouts? Would a proper Field Commander then field an AM or CA Scout for passive scans? Would their passive scans be much better than the nearest precision-enhanced Logi's, much less a GalLogi's actives? What's you're take on the effect of inner rings on knifeplay given that scans are now shared up to 16x? And how 'bout that cloak? 1.) Yeah, Min scouts work well in PC. You have to damp like crazy, and the Gal scout is still better, but it works. I'd like to see all scouts have the same level of dampening at 2 damps (READ: Bring them all up), but Gal scouts would go crazy if that happened. 2.) AM scouts have always needed a fix. CA scouts need that range buff, and then yes, they WOULD provide some great long range scans. Even now, a single range amp gets you 50m scans. I want a single range amp to get you to around 60m long range scans on CA scouts, which gives you 30m normal scans and 12m Short scans. 2 Precision mods would get you 31 dB at 60m, 24 at 30m, and 12 and 12m. That's some eWAR right there. Flip side, 1 damp makes you easier to find and you only have 307 shields and no speed. Acceptable losses. 3.) Nobody in their right mind would field a scout for intel. Intel is limited to squads, not teams. Active scans go to teams. If we get back to the point that a dedicated eWAR scout is in each squad doing perma scans, we've taken a step back. We've traded Gal Logi cancer for scout cancer, and at least we were warned when we where detected by active scans. Re-Re-Re-Re-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_; You never just leave Dust.

But what do I know, I am just a scrub who played scout and enjoyed it since open beta, but haven't been able to enjoy the game since ridiculous nerfs (I am looking at you cloak blind and a 3 second delay, that is really only supposed to be 1 second, but whatever, its working as intended), and Assault suits who have 8 module slots at all tiers (given pre real Assault buff, and left in long after they have become somewhat OP) so my opinion is worthless.

We were right. It wasn't CCP or the other members of CPM1 who were in that thread mocking us and telling us that we were wrong. It was Zatara. If all of this was one big accident, at the very minimum, Zatara should've owned up to his mistakes when he realized that one form of permascan had been replaced by another. He didn't. He championed imbalance -- which just so happened to suit his personal interests -- and he left it in play without a word of acknowledgement or effort to correct. Zatara's horrible PR on the side; the point I'm making is that the changes went through. That means that SOMEWHERE along the line, Zatara wasn't the only one championing this. CCP wouldn't put something in the game they don't agree with, and he had NOWHERE near enough clout to push it through on his own. The rest were silent. That doesn't mean that they didn't support it. Share the blame is all I'm saying. Trying to say that Zatara, himself, pushed an idea that only he agreed with through CCP is flat out stupid.

Are armor modules on a gal scout optimal or necessary? 2. What about high slots? I used to run precision enhancers but passive scanning is wonky so I switched them for extenders. Would it be better to use damage mods, myofibs or mix it up? 3. Are cloaks recommended? I like cloaks on my hacking suit but the switching delay and decloak noise get me killed too often. Lately, I've been running uplinks to help the blues and an active scanner to make up for the crappy passives. What scanner should I use? 4. Shotguns only? I've been using the shotgun a lot but I still can't aim with it properly. If the guy moves, I instantly lose track of him in CQC and get murdered. I was thinking of using an assault rifle but I don't think it has enough alpha damage. I could just ask for a fitting but I want to know the reasoning used by the masters of the scout craft.

Cloaks have saved my life countless times, you just gotta know when to use it, and when to turn it off. Be judicious with it. Shotguns Shotguns Shotguns. AR's are nice, but you shouldn't be engaging from range. If you're seen at range, you run, not fight. If you're not seen at range, GET CLOSER. You can't beat the sheer GANK power of a shotgun. Put em in the dirt, and fast. I like a single precision just because it gets you 25 dB at 15m. Catches sneaky assaults who run a single damp. I prefer it over more shields, but that's up to personal preference. I consider that second high slot a "utility" slot. Run whatever you think you need on it. If you need damage, go for it. Shields? Get it. I only consider a single shield extender on the Gal Scout "Mandatory" when running a ferro and rep, so go hog wild. For pubs though, these fits should be fine. Nothing you shouldn't be able to handle without success. If the team is getting wrecked, just cloak, run around and hack undefended stuff and throw down uplinks for points. Works every time. That's the beauty of the Gal scout. If you don't want to fight, you don't have to. With a good brain, cloak, and proper damps you can avoid engagements, no matter how hard they want to find you. I ran a 3x Gal scout against a team of 10 FA in a pub once. I died ONCE and that was because I took a bad fight. I literally ran circles around them all match. I never left the city. It was awesome.

They also don't have the stupid sound or beam of light. Just a hunk of metal on the ground. It would have high spawn times and low spawn counts. To counter, the scout carries quite a few of them. They're made so that a scout can wander a city undetected, and drop spawns that won't broadcast where he's at or going. Since Gal Logi's won't be able to sweep the links with their scans, strong scanning scouts would be needed to counter their links.

Jolly's rise of scout vid is a good example of scout killing. Moody's 60 bomb is a prime example of what went wrong. This is what assaults should be best at. A scout should have to rely on stealth. Completely agree. Just watched the duration the "60 bomb" (skimmed over it earlier) ... looked like 1.8 at its worst. Grabbed that one in response to Ghost's "all you need to do is a handful". There's no good reason to limit high kill games to other classes. If a Scout is good enough, there's nothing wrong design-wise with him posting 20+ kills. I agree with this. So long as stealth was necessary to achieve the kills, there is no reason a scout can't get a high kill count. They will not generally get as high as assaults though by design. That is because stealth kills are less efficient. It is much quicker to point a gun at someone 60m away and blast them, or to run directly at the enemy with a cooked grenade, than it is to stealth through a flanking manoeuvre and perform hit and run. This is particularly true when farming noobs like in Moody's 60 kills video. The trade-off for that efficiency is a scout's greater mobility and stealth, which brings it's own varied strategic value. Though we must not forget that assaults also bring a lot to the table that scouts don't, without involving killing. The ability to absorb the enemy's attention, tank damage, create a numbers advantage by grouping up, mutual cover and support. These are all things that assaults bring to the table to balance a scout's disruption and ganking ability. When I decide between assault or scout in a given situation, it is not the question of whether I want to kill the enemy that informs that decision. It is about whether I want to fight with solidarity, or misdirection. The system will really be working correctly if the combined kills of a scout and an assault are greater than that of two scouts or two assaults. I like to think of scouts as a specialised suits, whereas assaults are more generalist. That means that assaults will be the best option in the largest number of circumstances, and therefore will perform the best on average and attract the largest number of players. This means scouts are free to be good at what they do, their "particular set of skills", whilst still being less common on the battlefield. I've never said that you shouldn't be dropping 20+ kills, just that its not needed to do your job. I drop 20+ myself from time to time, and I don't feel that the scout is under performing at all. In some scenarios, scouts can be far more efficient at slaying than assaults. Typically in environments with lots of cover and objectives that are fairly close to each other. Cities are scout havens for a reason. As for the underlined, I agree completely. They are made to walk into almost any situation and be able to handle threats with their mobility, arms, and health. That alone helps make them the mainstay suit. There is almost no situation where bringing an assault is a BAD idea. In some cases though, bringing a scout is far, far more deadly.

It's not a worthless suit, I've got one made up in my armoury. BUT, it is hardmode, there's no two ways about it. I'm quite a fan of scouts being difficult to use, to a point. As a player who has been using scouts since beta, plays near the top levels of competitive Dust, and is specifically asked to run scout often because of my abilities, despite being skilled into and practiced with, a number of other roles, I can say that it is very difficult to use a triple damped Gal scout, even if it can still perform some critical roles well, the game always comes to combat, and combat with the suit is very difficult. The PC meta has changed a lot over time. It is more balanced than ever, but the city sockets are ruled by speed tanked shotgun assaults, and the outside points are ruled by coordinated groups of rifle assaults. Some maps are ruled by high ground commandos and forge guns. Logis are always useful for their equipment, but the rep+sentinel is suffering a serious squeeze from the biotic shotgun assaults. This is not pre-1.8, where scouts were as rare as people's understanding of how to fight them. People know how to fight scouts, and are prepared. On outside points, this means that angles are covered, flanks and rears are watched, cloak shimmers are spotted, players cover each other. In built up areas the assaults are fast. I can no stress this enough. The speed and regen advantages of scouts are minute compared to what they were, or non-existent. These assaults can not be caught, or escaped from. They will hunt you down. The age old adage that you shouldn't chase a scout no longer really applies. A spotted scout must run and hide and hope the enemy gives up looking. Myos give suits, particularly mediums, excellent defence from alpha weapons. This is a major factor. In the city my logi will scan any scout around a corner, including the 3x damp Gallente. It will also tank a shotgun round and one-shot the scout with it's shotgun. It is also negligibly slower than the scout and is equipped with a myo providing excellent defence from alpha strikes. And that's just a logi. On outside points my assault can jump onto creates with 360deg view of the surrounding area, outside of knife reach, difficult to hit with a shotgun. A single damped Gal scout is difficult. A triple damped Gal scout is very situational. As I mentioned earlier, 1x damp and 2x damp are all you need for 90% of scenarios. But that last 10%, the 3x damp gal scout makes Gal Logi's RAGE. They get so frustrated when their 4x Focused Scanner suit is useless on you. They keep thinking that they just haven't hit you yet. While they spam scans, you shotgun them in the back Oh, and you can't scan 3x damped gal Scouts. With skills on a Gal Logi, the Proto Focused active scan only gets 15 dB. 3x Damps gets you 14 dB.

I like it, sounds like a fun addition. I've often wondered how the game would be if uplinks were drastically changed. Imagine if there were two types of uplink. One was carried and allowed players to spawn on you. If you die the link would be lost. The other type was deployable, but only allowed you to spawn on your own link, and only once. Perhaps this could be your covert ops version - scout only. You would not be allowed to carry both. The game would be very different. No more uplink spam to control areas. Vehicle transport would be more important. As would movement across ground, taking the focus away from CQC environments. edit: I think your idea is probably better. Equipment would be a local jump portal. When activated, signature bloom makes you a LOT easier to scan. I'm thinking it could would like a rep tool or something. Hold down, have a charge time. At full charge lets, someone spawn in. Has a brief cooldown after a spawn in. Or you could go the passive route. Once again, sig bloom on use, but you can just flip it on like a cloak, but have it running while you have another weapon out. People can spawn on you, but you're essentially the uplink. Lots of cool things can be done with both, but I highly doubt they would be made. There's always legion, I guess... Re-Re-Re-Re-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_; You never just leave Dust.

He went through some REALLY tough times when I was going through high school. Half the reason I played Dust so much.

As for the Ishukone Assault SMG, there's actually a story behind it. Amarrians used to use Vitoxin as a way to control their slaves. It was a poison that required daily antidotes to prevent complications. The Caldari Ishukone corporation developed a cure for it called "Insorum". They mass produced and distributed this. Since Vitoxin was a slow, painful death; the Minmatar praised the corporation for it. This is why the SMG is named after the Ishukone (Or so I've been told). Re-Re-Re-Re-Retired PC Scout.

I absolutely adore it. EVL_Elgost105 Hit me up. Dragging some FA in with me. Wolfica will have it by tomorrow, as will TBA. I'm hoping The Division will be even more awesome. The Division will appeal to a different audience. I find the two only slightly comparable. The Division looks to be similar to Dragon Age in the way it plays. Full control with emphasis on tactics and abilities. It'll feel like an FPS, but play like a tactics game. Siege is very similar. While FPS is a core design of Siege, the tactics are far more important. Good breaching and CQC etiquette will net you more kills than your FPS prowess. That's where the similarities end. Leveling and Weapon acquisition will play a HUGE role in The Division. Looking at "The Dark Zone" I keep seeing thrown around, it will feel quite a bit like WoW or other games with dedicated PvP areas with better loot. A large part of the appeal for The Division will probably come from people who want to get a group they're comfortable with to go do some "Dungeon Raiding" and killing other players they come across. Siege on the other hand, just goes deeper into tactics. All the game modes are 5v5 with different objectives, and only a handful of maps (Around 7 iirc). However, these maps are STUDDED with versatility. Most maps are 3 story with everyone capable of rappelling to the top. Multiple entrance points make it impossible to stop attackers from entering the building by barricading. Thus, most of the tactics come down to finding a defensible area, locking down routes to it, and trying to funnel and anticipate the target. Made very difficult by the fact that a LOT of walls and areas can be breached. Defending requires a keen eye for lines of sight and possible breach points, while attacking requires a strong sense of CQC tactics and mindgames. It's like CS:GO. It's a defined niche with TONS of depth. I fully expect The Division to appeal to a larger audience, but games like that don't appeal to me as much. Destiny was fun for like a month. EVE retains appeal solely because I can switch up playstyle at the drop of a hat (Roaming, Exploring, Market, Small Gang, PvE, PvP, etc). I expect for me that the Division will be very similar to Destiny in appeal, and be fun for about a month or two before I drop it. Here's to hoping that it isn't. I'll still probably rent the game and give it a go when it drops. And yes, Lizzy Hale has an amazing set of pipes. I love Halestorm.

I wouldn't say its hard, it just has a large learning curve. Its technical skill is no different than any other shooter. Wanna be really good at the game? Learn how to prefire. Like hell! Any other shooter I could play with my eyes closed. With Rainbow Six if I'm not on my toes, music muted so I can listen for noises, checking corners and cutting off sightlines and riding on quick reflexes then my performance is severely limited. The skillcap is enormous. I don't think it's even close to being the hardest FPS out there, but it's definitely hard. I also disagree with that last point, most FPS games don't emphasize headshots nearly as much as R6:S. I've seen high level players tear through entire teams like they're warm butter because they know exactly how to hit headshots every time. Implying I don't play every FPS like that Yeah, the headshot game is strong too, but that is still part of prefiring. You open fire just before turning the corner and firing where you THINK someones head might be. If its a popular camp spot, I'll waste the ammo if I have to. Most of the time, nobodies there. But that ONE time someones there, you get a kill and get called a hacker I'd say the hardest part of this game to learn is proper reinforcing. Attacking is easy, just hit the point from as many angles as possible at once. Use abilities, grenades, etc to try and split their attention and create crossfires. Defending is a whole different game. ONE misplaced reinforcement can literally cause you to lose a match. You never want to isolate yourself as it makes that attacking part easier. You need to have everyone on point, communicating, reinforcing and covering different sectors, while remaining flexible enough to shift attentions as needed. I've played against some of the best teams in the game, their defensive game is FUCKING STRONG. eMp clan in particular. Hell, I've scrimmed against my own groups A-Team and gotten my ass kicked (CRYO). It's the competitive games that I live for in this game. I'd play ranked more, but sadly the hacking is pretty blatant now in there. I mainly do pubs and scrims. Re-Re-Re-Re-Retired PC Scout. I miss the old days ;_; You never just leave Dust.

I may be the sucker for CCP, but you're the sucker for every kickstarter campaign ever. I'll believe that the game is happening once its fully released. So far its been nothing but "Oh hey, we can't hit this release date because we're working on this COOL NEW FEATURE". My biggest fear for it is that it will repeat this over and over and eventually find that they're trying to do too much at once, and then release an unpolished game. I'll be honest with you. The game has me intrigued. If it ever DOES come out, I'll definitely try it. But they aren't getting a dime until then. But hey, ultimately its your money to spend.

After that I'd personally just enjoy a meaningful stamina system and more realistic damage modeling. I want to be able to pop someones legs and watch them try to crawl to cover.

Still bad with mkb but bloody hell it's nice hitting people with frying pans and stealing boats. PUBG is a few steps away from becoming a game I would regularly play.

I forget, but did Arma 3 have such settings? I remember having to play at low some for the most advantage. Yeah, but I don't play Arma against players so its not an issue. The group I play with does missions against AI with a DM-Like guy creating and tweaking a scenario on the fly. Lots of fun. Re-Re-Re-Re-Retired PC Scout.

We talk Nova stuff on a regular basis and have a gaming lobby to chat and stuff. Organize some PUBG games maybe? I'd love to see Shotty, One Eye, Mollerz, Jolly and the rest of you on there, since I can't talk to any of you outside of these dust forums (which I check infrequently). I check discord daily. If you want to play with me and not go through discord; my Steam is here. Been ages since we chatted and hung out together, I'd love to touch base with you guys again. EDIT: LMAO my steam page. I had a buddy buy me Nekopara as a joke and I promised to at least try it since he spent money on it. Jesus that game is weeb incarnate. Re-Re-Re-Re-Retired PC Scout.

Super fast rounds, smash bros sortaish but with 1 hit kill weapons on the map. If anyone gets this let me know, spent a couple hours last night killing some old dust peoples on it. Duck Game is fun, but only for like 3 hours. Once you've played all the minigames it gets boring. It was free on Steam once and some friends and I played it for like 4 hours and had a blast, but had no desire to purchase it when we were done. Re-Re-Re-Re-Retired PC Scout.
