Is a scanner really worth gimping the suit over?

Funny how logibro suggests tanking your knifed suit to deal with the 500 damage an exploding vehicle doles out.
What game does he play where a minja can tank 500 damage? And more so, isn't that what we are trying to avoid?
My argument is that knives wouldn't blow the tank up. A competent minja would permanently disable it instead with surgical incisions

Welcome to the Masochists Club. The numbers seem to be growing. I've had to counter several with my Ion pistol today.
I am part shovel, part man, full scout, and a little bit special.

So I woke up this morning excited for Charlie.
Then I forgot... and played Crysis 3 instead.
And then remembered just when I had to get ready for work.

I have just discovered that my NK skills are terribad
Running full proto i was going 9-5, as a NK scout with an ACR then i switched to SG and went 6-1 before the game ended less than 2 minutes later (dying because i got splashed at 37 HP by a PLC)...I felt bad for the first time in a while trying to run them...I guess I'm just not good with them haha
The struggles
At least I'm going out tonight so that'll be fun and maybe ill try NK's tomorrow

I believe each level of sidearm skill grants a 5% reduction on cup usage for any sidearm... Same with the explosives skill. Long ago I made the boring sacrifice of maxing out every skill that afforded cpu savings... Including light weapons. It really helps when you are running an m-1 or m/1... Heck, even the proto.
One sec.. I'll dial in your skill levels and see what's up.

Oh, speaking of which, if any of you guys are running Knives and see me on the other team in my punching suit (MinMando with Breach Ar and Swarms) I'd be glad to duel Knife to fist.

It took me maybe 2 or 3 months before I really felt like I could knife competently, and that took a knifing event to get me there.

Fuk! I forgot about that. The cloak isn't actually important tho. I rarely use it... So in its stead I'd beef up the range amp and or dam mod.
Scanning people and knifing is not a good combo because all you do is alert some people you are around. It's better to use your eyes.
Flux nades ftw. Compact to refill them. Carpet bomb with them.
Edit: when I say rarely use the cloak I mean in going for the kill. I use the cloak to get around tho.

Unless you have bad luck, or are talking about heavies that can survive a swipe.
In the latter case, I would suggest pulling Mollerz move of jump charging to their side, so that backpedal is less of an issue. Or, if they are barely surviving, add a damage mod and get your OHK.

Try going for people's sides. Most people go right so hit them from the left.
Going for their back is a non starter. You are better off going for their face. No lie.

PW: ZN-28 SW: basic ScP or Toxin SMG HS: Adv Shields HS: CPE LS: C Damp LS: Adv Kin/Kat EQ: R-9 drop (it's a deploy fit)

Managed a 27/3 against proto opposition. Fully recorded, although with no sound.
Just trying to figure out how I upload this pesky format. Can't find a converter that'll take it in this size.

Or just kill the mercs inside. Then hack. Then roll off cliff.
Leveled up Min Scout to L4 today. Good timing. Fitted out an M/1 with Flesh Reaver's. Only at L3 Nova Knives.
Went 10-7, spent first half of match in starter M-I fit with Breach Shotgun - pretty even KDR. Broke out the M/1 and got a six kill streak, five of which were the Reavers, one was Scrambler Pistolling a red shotgun scout. I thought about flashing knives but ... match too tight, too frantic, right next to Alpha and the supply depot. Sorry red scout bro.
Fun was had.
Need a 5x event desperately. Need to level - minja to 5 (1.2m SP) - Knives to 5 - Knife Proficiency to 5 - and now the freaking weapon enhancement skill or whatever it is gives you PRO damage mods. That's currently at 3.
Then I am bringing PRO sidearm damage mods, a pistol (bolt or scrambler, not sure yet) and knives to Skirmish 24 / 7 to get gud.
My Min scout is back - woot.
