I certainly thought it would be, but I'm not so sure now. Gave it a whirl after the 15% buff; it's pretty good, but it isn't or anything. The ScR is probably still the better choice, especially on an AM Assault.

No need to memorize progressions. Your suit's Scan Profile was recently added to in-game fitting summary; it'll update dynamically as you change your loadout. If you're away from the game, Protofits is another option (their EWAR calculations are up-to-date). Thanks for this, but my problem isn't really knowing how much I'm damped, it's knowing how much I SHOULD be damped. I don't know what the meta is in terms of assaults or scouts running prec enhancers, don't know if I avoid naked assault or scout passives without damps, or without damps + STD cloaked, et cetera. There's too many moving parts for me I really dislike the ewar system

28dB active scans are very common; 21dB Active Scans are the new competitive baseline. You can't beat 15dB scans without cutting off a leg and an arm, so if they're spamming Focused Scans, switch out to GalScout or Assault or leave battle.
If you're running SG or NKs, you'll also want to take into account 20dB Inner Rings. These vary in range from 5m to 10m. If your mark jumps away or insta-spins, it's typically because he's picked you up on his passives.

The links in question point Downstairs to the Nos Nothi corp forums. Like all other good ideas in this thread, Downstairs was originally conceived by a European. The area came into existence prior to Uprising 1.8 to serve as an information archive / exchange accessible by "The Original Bastards" who had participated in the now defunct Scout Registry project. For reasons which remain unclear, a single exception was made for Arkena Wyrnspire -- the very same FoTM-chasing AR-514 Supremacist and Team Gallente All-Star you see here today. Downstairs was recently repurposed to become a Commons for Nos Nothi Actives and the Original Bastards. To get in on the fun, you'll need to be recruited. If your merc's name is on Page 1 or you're a former member of R0NIN or Legio, you are automatically approved. Otherwise, just hang around the shop and be awesome.

Alright thanks, this definitely helps. One last question if you don't mind: assuming max ewar skills on both parties, and no ewar modules on either, who will pick me up with medium or long range passives, and would they still pick me up if I had a STD cloak active?

Might be true, but I kinda miss squading up with friends. My last and only Corp was hellstorm. I used to be very good, pwning proto geared people with just dren suits and adv weapons. I left dust 514 for almost a year and came back like 2 months ago probably. Just want to join a corp and have fun xD. |

Can't speak for PC, but I do get scanned on occasion in pubs while running a 2x damped GalScout. Can't put a number on it, but I wouldn't call them rare.
Are you able to look at item sales histories from Eve? I'd expect their usage rates to be in decline, in direct relation to declining Scout usage rates.

oh man, when a video game gets ur heart pounding. Craziness.
Roaming around solo just exploring the north west tip of map on h1z1. Check a few houses, vehicles, the occasional player base to see if they have a stupid password on the door. Finally come to this pretty large camping area, few cars, campers, trucks. Noticed a pretty fn large player made base right next to the camping ground, decided to risk it anyway.
I'm looting these cars and finding stuff so I'm really thinking no one from the base is online, just checking away. Out of the corner of my eye I see 3 dudes running from the tree line. "well crap" among other things go through my head. So I see one has a handgun, one a bow, and the last guy (named hillbilly) a shotgun and a flannel tshirt. All 3 rocking motorcycle helmets. Me with my bow, and handgun with 4 rounds doesn't stand much chance.
I bolt out of there making a bee line to some trees, as they get closer I hear (hillbilly) come on the mic saying "don't run boy, we just wanna be friends", "you gonna die tired anyway". He was kinda right lol my stamina bar hadn't gotten back up from the long run I just had taken to get there. I bob and weave as they start shooting, grab some zombie friends on the way and put them between us so they can meat shield.
Hillbilly keeps coming on the mic talking about killing me. A great show once told me, "if someone ever tries to kill you well, you try to kill them right back." So that is what I do, I see a house I looted 20 or so minutes ago. Deciding to take my last stand there I run inside shutting the doors behind me. As i'm running up the stairs I hear a vehicle outside pull up and stop. Doors start opening, I hear shotgun shots going off as hillbilly takes out one of the zombies that followed me in the house. Finally he gets to the door of the room i'm in, opens it...and gets a couple bullets straight to the face. XD
Take his shotgun and ammo, start reloading it as the other two dudes run into the room shooting handguns off like crazy. I die the end.
No Safety Net.
