Scout Dropsuits[]
The Scout dropsuit is a lightweight suit optimized for enhanced mobility, multi-spectrum stealth, and heightened awareness. Augmented joint servo motors give every movement extra speed and flexibility, while integrated friction and impact dampening materials reduce the overall sound signature. When missions call for speed and stealth, situations in which heavily armored suits would be more of a burden than an advantage, a scout dropsuit is the best option. The enhanced mobility it provides makes up for its relatively low protection, and when combined with stealth technology modules, the scout suit is the obvious choice for infiltration, counter-espionage, and assassination.
Playstyle[]
Scouts are generally geared toward stealth gameplay utilizing the lowest base profile available on any of the dropsuits accompanied by a bonus toward Cloak Field fitting. Racial variations further influence specialization toward different areas of the battlefield.
Scout Suit Role Bonus: +15% reduction in PG/CPU cost of Cloak Field per level.
Amarr Scout Dropsuits[]
Building on recent advancements in biotic technology, this suit incorporates an array of cardiovascular augmentations that are automatically administered to the user in battle, improving overall stamina and reducing fatigue.
Innate armor repair keeps the Amarr Scout actively engaged on the frontline.
Caldari Scout Dropsuits[]
Developed to support counterinsurgency operations, this Caldari suit is highly effective at asymmetric combat. An enhanced sensor package allows it to seek out and destroy dampened targets wherever they might be on the battlefield.
With faster shield recharge and reduced delays, the Caldari Scout excels in hit-and-run combat.
Gallente Scout Dropsuits[]
"Gallente military doctrine places a premium on human life, favoring technological solutions that augment or even entirely replace human combatants in a conflict as part of an on-going effort to minimize loss of life on the battlefield. To this end, Gallente forces have access to some of the most advanced armor systems in the cluster." - PlayStation Home's DUST 514: Gallente Scout Dropsuit Outfit description
This high-tech suit is coated in adaptive camouflage, a thin layer of bio-hermetic membranes interwoven with microscopic optical sensors that control millions of individual pigment ferro-crystals. An integrated AI-53 "All Eyes" sensor system wraps around the inside of the helmet, which also includes a chemically scrubbed atmospheric filtration system.
Reinforced with armor plating, the Gallente Scout is a formidable infiltration unit.
Minmatar Scout Dropsuits[]
Biotic augments make this suit ideal for a melee-focused role. Woven into the suit, a tremor membrane saturates muscles with nutrients amplifying the cross-sectional force of physical strikes. Combined with rigorous training, this temporarily enhanced strength and dexterity make the Minmatar Scout almost unmatched in hand-to-hand combat.
The Minmatar Scout is a lightweight suit optimized for speed and close-range combat.
