Aero,
Nice to see you back Big smile

PLC is thoroughly enjoyable on a scout suit. Recommend running it with Kinz. (How is your Biotics looking?)
Laser Rifle is actually pretty good on the Amarr Scout, but the overheat is a brutal punch to low EHP. That being said I think you know how to handle overheat.
And as my focus is almost always SidearmsGÇª Flaylock manGÇª Flaylock.
If you want to go Massdriver on a scout suit, Sinboto is a better person to talk to. I do it but not nearly effectively. Still prefer Knives and Flaylock Pirate

Still prefer Knives and Flaylock Pfft, I practically have the entire Dropsuit Upgrades tree maxed (what are shields? ) so yeah. I frequently run kin cats because I find the new scan range stuff a bit meh and armor plates don't really fit my style much (I'm trying to avoid being seen in the first place, not too great at it yet but every death I get a little better). I've dabbled a little into each weapon but never highly. I'm looking for something that can deal high alpha against just one or two targets, and then be ready to strike back if they respawn. Keep in mind most the time I'm running with base HP (x1.25) so I'm really skeptical of say the mass driver or flaylock which seem much more attrition like. Maybe I'm thinking about it wrong. And I guess attrition isn't necessarily bad. Amarr are the good guys Join "PIE Ground Control" for secure Amarr FW syncing and orbital support

Pseudogenesis Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 1265	Posted - 2015.01.08 12:11:00 - [27321] - Quote That must've been a closed beta thing because I have no recollection of it. Even so, I can't imagine /everyone/ complaining about it if it was implemented in anything close to a reasonable way. Most FPS and TPS games I've played have a significant (80-90%) backpedal speed reduction and nobody complains about those. I imagine either the backpedal speed was tragically low or some other factor is at play here. Also, if I can put my .2 isk in on the backpedal stuff, I am 100% for a backpedal penalty. Backpedaling is too rewarding in Dust and it punishes knifers HARD for crimes they didn't commit. I think if a backpedal penalty were introduced it would eliminate my final complaints about knifing (although small FoV still makes things difficult, but that's never gonna change) Stabby-stabber extraordinaire Gû¼+¦GòÉGòÉn¦ñ I stabbed Rattati once, you know.

Im talking about a scout with 2x sidearms that has 1x EQ slot (so no RE chucking with cloak as well), same mod slots as scout, grenade, and a cloak that was like the cloak right when it got introduced, before any nerfs (passive scans, 30 sec. standard, 25% dampening), and give it better marginally speed and scanning stats, and Ill be very very happy.

Ok, Rattati - First: Huge fan of how you respond and do what you say. No other game company has that kind of relationships with its players. Secondly - This is not an issue! Please do not slow development by listening to these "fixes" and stay focused on the three things we really need: player trading, warbarges (this sounded awesome), and PC fixes (this is a big issue, 1/4 of the battle modes aren't accessible or worth playing to lets say 80% of the players.). These forum posters need to realize that they are breaking this game with complaints and changes when we need to push into 2015 stronger with "Positive ideas". I know you can't flame people but I will. Everyone be quiet (Or JUST SHUT UP!) and put forth "Additions" and not "things that got you killed today". The heavy logi thing is another a prime example or the ARR. Vehicle balance is another one. Those can wait. This game will die if the community aspect of being part of a corp does not add value, so we need those other three things first. Thank you CCP for keeping Dust alive and keep up the good work. Sorry the forums are becoming so filled with criticism lately. Heavy with a massive bullet hose called Lola (Burst HMG).
