Now all that's left is to make LAV's useful.
How is doing 10.1K damage at full speed and 200 damage at 10m/s not useful?
Just stick a fatty on your turret with small missiles and let them go to town. 2 missiles to kill even the tank'iest of scouts, 3 for heavily tanked assaults, and 4 for a lvl5 sentinel. . . which always has a friend around so you can get some double kills.
Don't forget that unmodded you can tank a whole proto swarm clip, 2 PLC rounds, or 2 forge shots, or 2 packed lai dai av grenades

Meh. It's not so much about the damage as much as it is utility. Sure you could run someone over, but anything else could shoot that person before you get there. I suppose it's more a question of modules, but I miss when I could put an MCRU, Remote Repair unit and Remote Shield Recharger on one.

My tough... Discuss For the new guys in the bar ... Morathi here was one of the Scout Registry's original top Scouts, ranked alongside the likes of Radar, Lightning xVx and Marauder. For reasons which will forever remain unclear, this Scout Hero was biomassed. Following his loss, not a drink was poured or word spoken downstairs for three days. Bojo the Mighty told no jokes for an entire month, and Surt Gods End vowed never again to take a new woman on a weekday. Travi Zyg retired his second favorite knife in tribute and to this day only carries one blade into battle. While this hero is forever lost, a part of his spirit has returned to us in the form of a French-Canadian scrub scout who is known by his PLC, Jeanne d'Arc.
Morathi, I will respond to your thoughts once everyone else has had opportunity; this way I can steal the clever bastards' ideas and not have to think for myself. Except for the Nova Knife; here I am confident that you are dead wrong. Slowly slicing a tank to death is the ultimate "f*ck you, coward, come out and play" and is most honorable form of suicide available to the Scout. really? o_O I happened to kill Jeanne d'Arc IV twice this weekend. Both times in his proto scout w/shotgun. I now feel like a total badass.

I spent I don't know how much on a lvl 4 Cal Scout that I have used maybe less than 10 times. I don't even have a fit with one anymore because it was wasting space.

If I'm running Assault Lite I'm less likely to run cloak. Bricks and reps means no room for damps, and no damps means I probably have a red chevron over my head. So I swap out cloak for scanner as I get more use out of it ...
* Extends my 30m scan range by 3x to 6x. * Keeps my short-sighted squadmates informed. * Pays me occassional WP if/when my squaddies are good at killing. * Verifies that a straggler is in fact a straggler, and helps me be an idiot less often.
I'm one of those bad players Appia warned you about. Can't tell you guys how many times I've checked a target's surroundings and run what I thought the perfect flank, only to get smashed by a Fine Rifle from 60+ meters away.
When I'm fit for assassination I can get in and get out fast while remaining under radar, so I assume the risk, cross my fingers and cloak up when the deed is done. But when I'm fat, slow and assuredly on TacNet, I like to estimate my odds before committing to clumsy pounce.
TL;DR: Good for squad. Good for me.
Edit: The 2 cPEs are for smashing Scouts who think they've got the drop on me. Insta-spin smash via PLC is freakin' hilarious. You'll see.

Eww, who the hell would waste fitting space on a scout with armor repair modules?!
A/1-Series 2x Complex Precision Enhancers KLA-90 Toxin SMG Flux Grenade Nanohive, compact nanohive KinCat, 2x complex reactive plates
That, is how Appia runs a KLA with precision, search this thread for "Squirrel Hunter" for Allotek build.
Though 2xKinCat, 2xDamp, RE, Nanohive, Flux, 2x Compled Shield, Core Flaylock, and Allotek PLC on my Scout gk.0 is and always will be the best.
That's what I've been saying for months since the fire interval was reduced, it's the new breach shotgun. No DPS involved, no need for HP

Okay, Bastards. I've been having a problem since forever.
You know the building at Bravo on Border Gulch, Supply Depot at the top of the stairs, stairs overlook the console.
Fatty sets up shop with a bunch of hives and uplinks spammed up top, has the SD behind him so if he gets a few seconds between engagements, he doesn't even need the rep hives he's spammed. He's all alone. Can't get to him, though, not from below. Can't hack the point.
Now, Border Gulch is a bad example because there're two ways to get at him from above - but this same building setup is recycled on lots of maps. With no higher point to leap from, the way Border Gulch has, this position appears to be unassailable for a lone scout tasked with capturing that objective while the rest of the squad is bogged down elsewhere. But the team really needs another objective to win. This is guarded by just one merc. It's the easiest option. But how the hell do I kill that Proto Sentinel on those stairs? I've tried hopping and tossing a remote up at him, but he sees it because he's far back enough and he just shoots it or fluxes it. So that doesn't work.
Mass Driver? PLC? Wat do?

My tough... Discuss We have the directional radar dot listed as a bug. You.... You answered to me? ... Thanks seriously but my point is to remove totally the side where the player look on the dot keeping just a red dot will be for what i tough a kind of balance of scout and scanner espacially the shotty scout without touching the weapon or the suit, giving to the seen target a real chance to fight and to the hunter to go by feeling and need to observe the movement so the seen target , if he think hes observed can atleast try to trick, its too easy mode right now in my humble opinion so i tried to create a debate on some subject like this one Again thank you, nice job on delta like in yours previous patch note, like the work you did, dont give up!

For radar--directional should only show if your scan precision is 60% or lower of their profile
So scout with max skills can directional an unskilled heavy but nothing else, sees everything else as a dot that is 36 db or over
Am scout with a prec. of 17 can directional anything 28.3 db or over
Will really add some more balance to the game and hopefully cease the endless flow of scrubby tears

I like Gav's idea too :-)
If a unit's scan precision > target's scan profile, then target location is painted to tacnet. If a unit's scan precision >> target's scan profile, then target location and orientation are painted to tacnet.
Would add ...
If a target is successfully scanned by Active Scanner, target location and orientation are painted to tacnet.
Gives units which otherwise wouldn't run damps incentive to do so. Same with precision enhancers.

My tough... Discuss need more then glow while hacking. I would say pulsating bright neon green with at least 10 arrows pointing as they rotate around the scout flashing yellow and on top of that any dmg taken while hacking get a 100x multiplier with full auto aim assist to anyone in weapon range of the scout. I mean really a glow while hacking? cmon OBJECTIVE is flashing that it is being hacked and you see nobody at the terminal kinda gives that one away. if your camping a CRU, Turret, etc and you missed the shimmer run up to it. then your not a very good camper. Or if you don't circle around CRU, Turrets, etc looking for the slight blur or reticle to turn orange/red (not sure with my eyes) then maybe you should just learn to be in less of a hurry and actually TRY to find them. Now the other points I can see the point of to a degree. lose the angle give HP buff longer cooldown on cloaks give a HP buff you see I dont play the 800HP scout so that added intel and cooldown copensates for my lack of HP. I cant tank a shot poping out to see what direction enemy is facing. and cooldown is for my rapid escape because I can not tank Hits running away in an open field of enemy. Now finally the NK tank dmg. LOL yes that is a joke to me too. a plasma knife can do dmg to a tank but my plasma rifle, shotgun and pistol can not. my feeling with the fact of showing only the doth is for the SG scout complain, the SG dont need a buff, its the fact to know where to go by knowing where ppl watch make the shotty scout OP ... In skirm and dom, in ambush its an other story. For the point of glowing while hacking ... The logic is you glow when you move and actually you made action of movement with arms whe hacki ng . My two other point, well its idea, i play scout since close beta, i didnt haved that stuff and did well, throwing the cioldown question to see what ppl think and the NK on tank its not that important but derail in balance of the game can,be so. I play an AR eWar scout 90% of the time and direction indication is one of the biggest factors to survival as you can not kill your target fast enough for them not to turn around and kill you like you was nothing so nerfing direction indication because 1 weapon is not a idea i like. if there is a problem with a weapon fix the weapon. cloak and shotgun are the combo problem not direction indication. the cloaked hacker can see there arm terminal so why not everyone else? unless its a virtual arm computer only seen through hud. sure that would require a software patch. Other than that i don't think moving your fingers should cause a full body shimmer/glow I personally don't like the idea of being able to recloak instantly after declaok (decloak shotgun blast recloak) but as I like to use the STD cloak from time to time it is almost made for that tactic since it is not a cloak made for camping but running and active cloaking and declaoking and can be a lot of fun to use. The std cloak also does not have dampening bonus so another thing making it favor not having a recloak delay as one using it is more at risk of tac-net visibility unless gal/cal scouts ;-) The adv and proto having dampening and longer duration I could be persuaded to favor a recloak delay to prevent the ability to manage your cloak to virtually remain invisible most of a match while still having the ability to recloak instantly after decloak. NK dmg I think is more for the lol. If a tank dies from more than 50%NK dmg the tanker should have there name posted on the front page of the forums for everyone to see so everyone can make fun of them. Sorry scouts not the killers name as you all will be making alt tankers to kill just to get your names posted. Sorry for late reply void i missed your post my bad. NK well yeah i maybe make a storm in a glass of water, sorry of my temper sometimes, good stuff on the cloak actually a good idea of a delay instead than higher cooldown i like it! For the Ewar scout, yeah kinda suck if we do my main, but i think Gavro have made my idea excellent and could be even nicer for you if you have time to read it and telling your feeling. Good stuff sir
