We have the original list here and even making a new one now, you'd just end up with the med frames who have converted early in anticipation of the FOTM. The true registry of the vet scouts will always and only ever be here and we know that everyone on that list deserves to be there, despite all the sht we've had to put up with for the past 8 months. BTW - just discovered there's an actual speakeasy in Edinburgh where you have to go through a real Barbershop to get in! Going there on Friday I'm a forum noob, so can someone please explain to me wtf is going with these multiple scout registries?
The original scout registry was renamed and moved to Locker room for some reason.
Now someone is making a new scout registry, but won't it just get moved or locked?
I seen another thread asking to have this thread moved back to general too. Is the registry on this thread updated and how to join if it is?
Thanks to anyone who can answer my questions.

Thanks for the replies and clarifying everyone. Thanks to the Scout vets who helped to improve the scout suit and role.
Screw registries, let's just make a hit list for the anti-scout enemies. Tankers and anyone who uses a proto scanner should be on the list. o7

Again on the topic of new registries, the latest epeen thread won't last - in fact, may have already died. Any new registry would just amount to a list of epeen wavers. Let us not forget that the reason this thread stood the test of time was because the original registry had purpose and meaning and then became something more - this awesome community. You can not do it the other way round - rounding people up does not automatically create meaning or purpose.
We know who most of the dedicated long term scouts are and most of them are in Nos Nothi and we'll vet any applicants there to make sure we only get the diehards, so we don't need a new registry. Anyone here who wants to solidify their place in this community is welcome to join and that's all we need. Does Nos Nothi have many active members to be in squad? Any North Americans in corp, specifically for late night battles. (I'm EST timezone)
I recently joined D-Uni because there's usually active members for squad. D-Uni's tax rate is 7%. How much is Nos Nothi's tax rate? (Not a big deal, just curious)
I was in R0N1N for about a week and would mainly be in squad with Lightning. Unfortunately there were few active members when I was on late at night. I'll still be referring new scouts to R 0 N 1 N, which should be popular in 1.8.
It was a similar experience as being in squad with Scouts United people. I learned a lot during the Shinobi event, but like learning from Vets when possible.

Most members have their mains in another corp, but it is easy to find people to squad with even if they are not tagged with the Nothi corp. I am often playing with my Nothi account as it is taking over as my main account. Minja is way more fun, and I am rapidly closing the sp gap on my accounts Yeah my original character has SP spent all over the place, it's mainly an adv Minja. I've moved the passive SP to this character, adv Gal scout.

Yeah this is why I prefer the CR over the RR. Although I plan on trying the Magsec SMG with my SG.
Brokerib wrote:Just to clarify on this. Nos Nothi is not a corp in the normal sense. There is no specific hierarchy, and we don't run corp operations (though that may happen at some stage), and there's no tax rate. It was setup purely to allow us to have a walled garden in the forums for scout-crafting and communications that aren't overly moderated. Which is also the reason that most of us setup a forum alt to join.
There's a Nos Nothi specific channel in game which can be used for grouping (details are on the Nos Nothi forum), but you can join with any of your toons. It more compliments 'Scouts United' than forms it's own channel, but is good if you're looking for a scout specific group. Thanks for answering my questions.

I've decided to skim the beginning of this thread for history and tips. Just finished page 56 and should be at page 500 by the 1.8 release (April?).
Can't help but feel fortunate that I started playing DUST in mid-November. Not sure how I'd cope with the BS that you guys had to deal with.
I enjoyed the videos by Jolly and Cyrius. I learned some movement tips by watching IgniteableAura's SG montage. Plan on watching their other videos this week.
Later I'll be sending an app to Nos Nothi from my original character, Ghetto Troll. I'd like to keep this character available for Corps that do PC matches when I reach proto.

I was looking forward to a relaxing game of DUST last night. Went solo in Pub skirmish and seen that Llast was on my team when he killed someone. I was pumped, so pressed select to see if Llast was in a squad. My PS3 did a beautiful HARD FREEZE. LLAAASTT!!!!
No longer with D-UNI, it was fun but it really is a corp for new players. Might join the more serious corps later. Although I've read that PC isn't fun for most scouts.
Made a new corp for fun. "Serenity Now" was taken, so added "x". It's to honour my idols, Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld.
Anyhow this thread has been fun to read. After Shotty dies, I skimmed every second page since some discussions went 2 to 3 pages. o7

Hey Monk, Llast and I had some fun matches last night. Although there was one with proto scanners (not meta 9). We chased a rail tanker away with our NK. (& RE) It always makes me laugh when tankers panic against scouts.
I haven't passed the SP cap yet, so I'll be playing later tonight. It's the last day for Operation Maul-The-Fatties. I haven't used a Heavy suit during this event. Didn't keep track of my kills, but doubt I reached the bonus SP cap.
Thanks to everyone that shared their experience with PC matches. 07

It's hard to believe that over 2.7 million clones were slaughtered during the recent event. We are all 2M+ SP richer!
Played a lot of Ambush with my alts to quickly get 10 games. So will be testing the Amarr and Caldari scout in 1.8.
Look forward to using the 3M SP to take my Gal and Min scout to a whole 'nother level.

Haven't seen any Dev replies about Shotgun keeping the increase of RoF proficiency skill. I only have Op 4 on both characters, so will wait for reply or release.
3M SP this Thursday! Hopefully the script is better than the Mauler rewards script.. haha

Would definitely have to squad up more when I use it. Yeah I might try the Commando later on my alt that will be an Amarr scout. Although I see more Commandos in Ambush and Domination.
Sentinels usually give me more problems than Commandos. I'm glad CCP don't seem to be nerfing RE in 1.8.

Checked the 1.8 SDE values for the SG. There have been no changes to the RoF to the advanced and proto SG. The RoF is still 85.71 RPM and breach is still 60 RPM. Didn't notice any changes to damage or anything else.
I'll leave SG prof for later. Maybe get complex Myofibril...

You may have missed the other posts and threads earlier today. The SG proficiency change has been confirmed in the 1.8 SDE. "3% shotgun damage against shields per level"
Majority of the weapon stats and skills are up to date. CCP have not commented on the change, it's almost like they forgot it was an increase in RoF. A lot of people were asking about it when the weapons Dev blog was posted.
I guess we can try the MD until it's nerfed in 1.9.

Will Shotgun+NK finally be viable? It's extremely viable in Ambush against tanks and ADS. For reals. *High five*
So it looks like there's 3 pages of drama, will read it with coffee. Hope it's as good as a Spanish soap opera.
Also, CCP gave the MCC rewards a day early! Worked on my alt accts (2M), will check main (3M) in a minute.

Also, that ck.0 seemed to only require level 3 in the racial skill? IgniteableAura did the digging. I'm only spreading the vicious rumours. Haha it's true, the Scout ck.0 required skill is currently level 3. (requiredSkills.0.skillLevel = 3)
There's probably a couple of typos in the SDE. I recall some people found other errors.

Adv: http://www.stuff514.com/sde/type/353501Pro: http://www.stuff514.com/sde/type/353537CCP has some odd ways of calculating its numbers. Cause things like plates and extenders are % based in the SDE but are absolute based in game. The sentinels don't have any modifiers to their frames. So thats why I am concerned with there not being any skill/role bonuses being applied to them....unless CCP has done it an odd way. Yeah I got the sense from other thread that it's something else that IWS is talking about.
Thanks for link to that site, I was checking it locally.

You should be fine with your Gal scout. I plan on having a fit with the basic cloak for matches that have Duvolle Focused scanners.
Today I used the SP rewards to get this character to a level 5 Gal scout. However, after deep reflection I've decided to switch to the Caldari scout in 1.8. With the anticipated surge of new scouts, I expect few will use dampeners or have level 5 damp skill.
I'll be using a complex precision enhancer, so fewer scouts will be able to sneak up on me. Will use 2 complex prec enhancers to hunt most Gal scouts, which should be the most popular scout. Thanks Haerr for your awesome Scanning Table.
Still deciding whether to keep my Nos Nothi character as a L4 Min scout or switch to a proto Gal scout.

I will be taking the opposite route and maxxing out the sensor fits for most of my G-Spook suits. Complex damp and whatever range mod I can fit in the low with a green jar. High will be best precision money can buy. Hunting scout newb's and wannabe EZ converts will be so, so easy... I see so many of 'em with my passive scanning now and my precision is only 36 and change on my dragonfly. They are 'practicing' now I guess... but, what are they practicing? Dying? Even with no skills you should at least throw some dampeners on there... Yeah it's going to be fun hunting tanked scouts. My original character is getting more SP for dropsuit respec, so will make it a Cal scout instead. The current plan for my scout suits in 1.8: 1. Ghetto Troll= Proto Cal Scout. Then use extra SP for Min Scout later. 2. Ninja Troll= Proto Gal Scout. 3. Alt= Adv Amarr Scout.
I look forward to testing the new suits with the MSMG + NK/SMG for the new event.

On a character that has dampening maxed, it would be nearly impossible to detect, which is a weakness that makes heavies and medium frames more balanced. Its awfully early to say for certain, but I see lots of room for this type of outfit to be abused. Yeah this type of build will be common with Gal and Amarr scouts. Although I expect to see the RR or MSMG, with 2 complex shield extenders. Plan on hunting these people with my Cal scout.

2 days as a proto Gal scout against randoms, then he tells you Vets it's not hard. I haven't seen any of his other threads, so not sure if he made thread for trolling or for serious feedback. A couple of his replies insult people, so it's probably not worth giving constructive criticism.
Anyways, I hope to see him and others like him on the battlefield in 1.8.

This may have been mentioned already, but I just noticed the stats for the Amarr light frames. http://www.stuff514.com/sde/type?typeName=light
Std Amarr Light - http://www.stuff514.com/sde/type/364810 Main difference is the armour is 130HP and shield is 100HP. It could be a typo, but it's the same for adv and pro. Think the Amarr & Gal light frames will be used by players that don't want to invest SP into Scouts.
Noticed the militia light suits are similar to std light frames, but with 1 equip slot. Which means we can make decent cheap fits. I'll probably get the other standard light frames for both my characters.
Recall someone asking about the Dragonfly Scout BPO suit. Dragonfly- http://www.stuff514.com/sde/type/355430 There's other BPO suits listed- http://www.stuff514.com/sde/type?typeName=scout
The standard Gal Scout is currently listed as having only 1 equip slot. http://www.stuff514.com/sde/type/352587 It must be a typo, since the other standard Scout suits have 2 listed.

Mainly for the hacking bonus, I rarely use NK since I use SG. Anyhow, I like that CCP adjusted the prices for the light(basic) frames.
Mainly use advanced suits, so the standard light frames will be fine for me. Specifically the Min and Amarr light suits for both characters. I'll use my SP to improve core skills before getting another scout suit.

Did CCP get rid of their Dust QA team as well as GM Unicorn, CCP Logicloop and moving devs like CCP Foxfour to Eve? Yeah I'm surprised that a lot of the errors in the SDE weren't fixed before launch. I looked in the marketplace for the scout suits and it's a fracking mess. The gold Amarr scout suit made me laugh, it looks like a *****.
Thanks to everyone for sharing their first impressions on the cloak. I might get level 3, but will focus on my core skills first.

I haven't seen Monk for a while, could he be using a proto-forum-cloak. Monk don't let the ScP nerf and tourists get you down. The basic cloak is fun. One of us, one of us...

I don't think it's needed anymore. Yeah I think the dampening bonus could be changed to "balance" the cloaks. Either that or the recharge times. Maybe make the shimmer more noticeable. If you use a complex dampener, then it's really easy with the cloak. There were many times last night when I felt like I was in God mode.

I've been speed tanking with my Gal scout and it 's easy mode when using cloak. Tried it with my Cal scout and it wasn't as successful. My adv Amarr scout was a bit better than Cal scout. Min scout character was ok, but it needs more SP (Passive SP and MCC bonus).

If I don't move they can't see me... If I don't move they can't see me... Haha when I read "T Rex" I thought of the Min Commando.
Finally seen the cloaked unicorns that Llast mentioned earlier. Seen 2 cloaked Gal Commandos in Ambush last night. I killed both of them with RE.
I have an extra character on passive SP, going to try an adv Gal Commando with cloak. Also going to use it for AV tactics with Plasma Cannon, which will probably fail. Character has incubus too, so I can be a derpship jerk too.

It wasn't that hard to cloak the Gal Commando on my alt last night. The character already had AR prof level 2, so used it with SG, enh damp and enh cardiac. When cloaked my Gal Commando has 34dB scan profile thanks to reduction bonus.
Killed 2 proto Gal scouts who walked past me when I was cloaked. So they must have not had precision enhancer equipped. It felt wrong. The commandos and basic heavies can stack so much armour.
Suggest killing with RE if solo and gang up against them if in squad. Anyways, I'll be using my Cal and Gal Scouts this weekend. o7

The recent cloak hotfix may be causing a new bug. Not sure if it's just for scout suits. It seems that switching suits at supply depot is keeping previous suits info. I'm going to do more tests, specifically for scan profile.

I'm going to try to reproduce the new bug and do some scan profile tests. Switching to other suit fixed the new bug too.

Regarding the new bug, I was able to duplicate it with other suit types. Fortunately scan profile seems to be ok. Not sure if there are other related equipment or suit issues.

Not sure if there are other related equipment or suit issues. Revive icons being shown after you switch to another suit without a nanite injector has been a known issue for many months, at least from 1.7 forward. Thanks for the update. I rarely use nanite injectors, so I didn't notice it in 1.7. This could explain why calling for help sometimes doesn't work. The overview map shows nearby medics, but nobody revives you even if area is clear.

I need a lot of SP too! Good news, accelerated SP event next week from April 16 to 23rd. 5x SP per match and 3x SP Cap. It's announced in game, not on forums yet. Thankfully I saved an Omega booster for this type of event.

I wonder if CCP games will still be active in 2 years. Especially with the community's anger at CCP and some EVE players cancelling their accounts today.
Played a lot of FW yesterday with Corp (q-sync ) . Someone sarcastically said "Dust is probably going to PC" and we all laughed.
Mainly started DUST to prepare for DESTINY and I've enjoyed the last 6 months. My DUST playing time will now be reduced significantly due to today's announcement.
I can't imagine the disappointment that some of you Vets are feeling atm. Fortunately summer is soon, so we can all hopefully take a break from gaming. o7

I will be doing pre-order, still deciding between PS3 or PS4. Not sure if many Beta codes left, will check forums or their news. Although I don't mind waiting to play it in Sept.

I knew that you scrubs would crawl back to Dust! haha Surprised that there's not a new Dust event yet. I haven't played for about a week and recently got a PS4 on Saturday.
The transition from Dust to Warframe and Battlefield 4 isn't too bad. The controller sensitivity is a big difference. I had it on 100 for Dust, but have it on 15 for BF4. Conquest is similar to Skirmish, but way more epic.
Anyways, I might play Dust if they announce a new and interesting event. o7

Wow it's been about 3 weeks since my last post on here. If anyone needs ISK, send me a message on PSN or in-game. I'd prefer to give ISK to Nos Nothi members that are still actively playing and need ISK. PSN is probably quicker because I rarely play Dust.
I played only one Domination match on Saturday. Then I gave ISK to corp and some poor corp members.
The PS4 has spoiled me. I've been uploading short videos on my YouTube channel. https://www.youtube.com/user/veltronic
Almost everyone is playing Watch Dogs atm. However, I probably won't play it until after the Destiny Beta or in the winter.
I have a strange addiction to Warframe. The player trade market is what keeps the game going. Building weapons and suits is fun. o7
