Plan to test GA Scout + Vanilla SG + SMG next. NK + ASMG was still my favorite CQC fit of all dust. Can't wait to try it again. For CA scout, I'd probably actually run RR+MSMG. Take advantage of huge shield delay buff to make him better at long range flanking. Scout around, mow a dude or two down, cloak and run. 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 were held constant, and the floor was raised around it.

They are the same except the ARR lost some range.
The Caldari Assault gets a new bonus to RR kick though.

Do you have any skill in Magsec?
Always liked the description of the weapon, but now that it has been buffed it sounds more plausible again.

I don't care much for the reload, but the RoF is what kills it, in my opinion.
A vanilla shotgun could get two shots in before the Breach does.

Yep. Dumped a million or so SP into it this morning (Pro3). It isn't bad, but the ASMG feels better. At first glance. Will revisit.

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.

I'm not seeing it. Old Delay looks exactly like New Delay. What am I missing, Ghost?

M209 feels pretty solid. Better than the current BP? Possibly.

This is mostly incorrect, unfortunately. The Caldari Scout was used as a margin; an extreme. It has the highest base regen stats available to retain it's prior capability, which was requested in the first Shield Stats thread (it was previously going to be nerfed to coincide with racial shield stats). It did receive a minor buff to shield threshold, however, which allows it to continue recharging shields when being fired at by projectile weapons outside their optimal range.
This may change in the future, however, in Shields Step Two. We need to see the data on how the meta changes go down, how fittings have changed, etc. That should take a little while so have patience :) Just know that we are keeping a close eye on things.

The last sidearm rebalance just broke the assault SMG. Besides from the ammo reduction the hit detection on it seemed really weird compared to the prior version. I'll have to give it a try again as it used to be my favorite sidearm.
Also will need to test the ScP changes. |

Based on the comparison videos I posted here I'm starting to think the reduction to kick wasn't as substantial as we would have liked. Just my personal opinion though, the other CPM and CCP may disagree. I think it could go down further.

Noted. Might take a look at the reload speed soon. Let's see how the data works out and if it is necessary.

Bear in mind that it is an officer suit and officer suits are, by design, meant to be powerful. You can also only get them through salvage boxes, so they are extremely rare.

Agreed. It feels alot better. TT3 feels pretty good as well.

Yeah, I figured the gal assault/ar threads would be the best to read.
Followed by a high sp player complaining about lower skill players with some mid tier grenade killing him.
Ending with scrambler rifle users.
Not saying the forums will be flooded with threads on the grenades/scrambler posts. It will brake up the gal assault threads nicely though.
Jumpy jumpy still seen a good bit?
On the sg, I was seeing/hearing a few people here and there wanting people to have a reason to use higher tier sgs. Would a increase in fire rate do that? To the extent the proto = firing fast as prof 5 used to fire when that was the prof bonus.
(No, I won't give up on getting the sg to fire faster lol)
Or are people stigmatized by the bons sg now, that when they hear anything about the others firing faster they freak?
Edit: hell even the proto firing fast as prof 3 used to, it would be nice.
std prof 1 firerate
adv prof 2
proto prof 3

Hey Ghost, ive been using the RR/SMG on my gallente scout for a while now, are you using ARR or regular? I don't really try hard when using it, but on some maps i find ARR is better. The gallente scout is so flexible with the four lows i could shield & armor tank it, but i personally like my highs with PEs or damage mods.
But do i really need PE at the range i could engage? Also, ran the RR & ARR on matari, its an entirely different animal. The best primary for NKs besides vanilla CR & SMG. IMHO, the regular RR is better for gallente scout, but ARR is best on matari & caldari according to you.
How would you fit you're matari/caldari fits?
Do i need PEs with RR?
If i tried a little bit more can RR on gallente scout work?
Looks like changes need to be made.
