The purpose, as far as I understand, is to attempt to get an accurate reading of the percentage of players who are using a particular class, namely the Scout, which, along with the heavy, has been in sharp decline in recent times due to a series of...undesirable changes.

Added (3314 kills). o7

July 2nd, 22:00 - Killboard Updated

Commentary:
We're less than one day into Uprising 1.2, and the recent changes have already taken a toll on many among our Scoutly ranks. Issues and concerns have been discussed in many threads, so I won't bore you with redundant information. Check the Scout threads and remain active in the Forums. It can't hurt to remind CCP that we've taken a big hit; use the tools at your disposal, be it +1s, Responses or and Feedback/Requests.

See Page 1 for a link to Spec Op Cipher's popular thread.
See Page 9 for tips and tricks on surviving in Uprising 1.2.

Killboard Changes:
The Registry has added a new metric to the KillBoard, represented by a (+) or (-) value next to the name of each Scout. This value will track the total change in your KDR since the release of Uprising 1.2.

Announcements
Rich O and Lycuo have taken their place among the Elite Scouts (Tier V), each with over 20,000 kills.

Notes:
Due to character limitation, the Killboard minimum requirement will soon be increased from 1000 to 1250.

Thanks for the head's up, CheckMate. I noted your feedback in the 'Scouts Extinct' thread.

May you find your way back to your scoutly brothers down the road. We wish you well in your future travels.

Hey King! Shoot for > 50% Scout/Light.
If you're running primarily Assault for the time being, we can always add you back once you've returned Scout.
The basic idea's to try to keep our community statistics as robust as possible.
Thanks for checking in, brother. o7

Thoughts?

I wish my allotek breach shotgun one-hit killed someone. I really like it the more I use it. but I'm also putting a complex damage mod on it... pesky Gal Logi sill survive both shots though

I remember this one! Down to the wire!

"L33T" ... "Skilled" ... "Vets" ... Boba Fett and friends holed up like cowards inside Bravo.
They stayed inside the same room quite literally the entire stinking match.
Would've cloned us, if Jolly hadn't saved the day :-)

Check out the clone count @ 6:47 ...
Then watch for Jolly magic!

This is the strength of that corp as I see it, always 3 working together in my experience. If you see two together then JOLLY is already behind you

My unvoiced concern, is that CCP Remnants statement also leaves me with an impression that our stealth bonus will be replaced with a fitting cost bonusGǪ.

Edit:
How do you folks feel about the loss of 5% profile/level Role bonus for improved fitting cost on Cloaks?

So far, Amarr scouts are good at walls of text and ceaseless QQ. That stamina buff sure is working!

Same for me except I might put two complex damage mods. reason is the faster you kill the more likely you'll survive in my option.
Right now on my Gal scout I have complex damp, range, precision, kin cat, and cardiac. I never use health mods anymore.

Yeah you got point there but sense were Caldari how about shield regulators an rechargers I was thinking about that type of build for CQC.

Try the minmitar, they get the most situational bonuses of any suit in the game. One only works on the most skill intensive weapon in the game, the other doesn't even work in 1/4 of all matches (yes 1/4. Ambush OMS it still is applicable, just not useful)

Waddup KC!

Does anyone else find the Destiny PvP too CoD like?

Its really really easy IMHO

Even as a level 6 in a game where everyone else is level 8, I can run around with no tactics and kill everyone fairly quickly

am I the only person on dust who has never used Officer gear, in pc or in pubs?

We are bastards and scoundrels.... meanness comes with the territory. But I actually thought we were being nice and inclusive. No one has tried to stab you or set you on fire yet....
