Well actually if they didn't plan on giving scouts an extra slot, it would be 2/2 As for why? It's because amarr always have 1 less slot than other races. And since min and gall scout have 5 slots total, it means proto amarr scout will have 4 slots total. And since they are known in dust as the dual tankers but leneaning more on armor, it will be 2/2. Unless they buff it by one slot then it would be 2/3 But in exchange they get better base eHP and more CPU/PG. Yes. But they would get 30 eho over the gall scout. 30 .. That's it :/ Also the increased CPU and pg is nice... Though you don't have very many slots anyway so even if you were given the same CPU pg you'd still be able to fit them lol. And to shotty, I'm actually going to go amarr scout....ill find a way to make it decent.. I hope. If they give a respec though I'm going medium frame shotgun... :(
Well, in regards to the Amarr scout, i've been thinking. Amarr suits all have more stamina than other suits, correct? Meaning the scout should have the highest stamina of all suits, perhaps something in that direction could work? Like a kind of long distance runner. Just some thoughts.

Hey Guys!
I've created a poll of sorts and would appreciate your feedback: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1437180#post1437180
In short, let's assume a Respec is offered after Racial Variants are released. Also assume that Scouts are left as is, with no meaningful buff.
This is not a "loyalty test" ... please be honest. Frankly, the more of us who are leaning toward leaving, the more likely CCP will consider fixing us. So don't be afraid to say so :-)
Thanks!

If Amarr scout is only 2/2 it would be pretty crummy in my opinion, unless it has significantly high CPU/PG, and decent racial bonus. |

I always fight for Minmatar and Gallente. Gotta keep it real! But, I do love the pistols and laser. Not to keen on the scrambler rifle though....
Maybe they'll think I'm on their side and I can get in close and get some head-shots!

Good list and poll, Shotty. You've definitely got me in the right category, I'm 80% leaning towards leaving if there is a respec. |

Wow. Lotta armor. But I'm surprised you have double repairer, rather than 1 ferroscale or something. for that little bit EXTRA :)
I was originally going to ask about how you stayed alive that much. but with 300 extra HP, not too much of a mystery :-P When I slap double armor on my regular scout, i tend to stay alive a lot longer too!
That being said, anyone want to share how they stay significantly on the positive-kill side, in lesser scout suits? Particularly since most of the time, I have to run with dampers rather than armor.
I've occasionally had fairly positive highs doing the objective camping schtick. But man, I get SO BORED doing that... blah. So when playing solo, I mostly end up running around doing crazy things to experiment :) |

Well particularly for the squad cup, domination...no vehicles. So gotta run to the objective, there is no way any squad isn't going to have some1 quick do this. They'll prolly use minmatar mediums when it comes down to it but yeah just askin.
@llast, i've heard pretty much the exactly same convo go down before.
XD Indeed, chase me friend XD

Yes!
At the very least, you would benefit from leveling up to using 'stable uplinks', which have a greatly reduced power consumption or something.
Or are you saying you just dont do uplinks at all?
kinda silly not to; they're usually a free 200-400WP per match.

xactly.
The limitations are why I'm shocked, that not enough poeple have signed up for the all-scout squad! The latest, extended cut-off is tomorrow, I think.

Why wouldn't you skill into uplinks?
Uplinks are the best way for a scout to get WP during a pub stomp. Slip past the enemy, place an uplink near an objective in an obscure location, move near another objective, drop another uplink when the first one is spent, and repeat.
Just watch all the WP roll in. |

I would, but with school and work, I'm really busy. If you guys have extra spots, I'll sign up as a possible member, if someone else can't make it.

I get my jollies from shaping the battle by placing uplinks in strategic places (usually a radius around the objectives at 100m out) so my main fits are all sg and double kincats. I get around 1800-2400 wp and go 12/3 and 18/5 a lot if my latency is favorable.
If I'm kdr whoring I go remotes with double complex range and enhanced precision mods w SG for defensible, CQC sockets and go plate/repper with laser and double basic damage mods w scanner for open maps. Easy to go 10/0 with the laser fit, but some tool always seems to take out my radar fit w an AR or M1's... |

Because it's low enough that it's hard to beat while still allowing a level 5 Gallente scout or any scout with one complex damage mods (and assumed level 5 dampening)...except for lolheavies.

Dont really do uplinks, too much cpu and pg for my tastes and I much prefer RE's or a Repper in that slot, occasionally a scanner.
