Listen guys, I’m not some predator badass okay? In fact I don’t know where fireteamnis for about five minutes of the match most of the time. Though I still get the quad because my scout is one bad bitch.
Or a bitch but can’t hunt if I’m dead right?
I get that she’s a fragile smol girl(at least mine is) but you gotta understand that just because they nerfed the plasma caster doesn’t make it usless. First off a direct shot with a plasma caster may not one shot but it damn well makes fireteams first reaction be "OH SHIT " as they run in circles with their lives flashing and their health bar almost one tick from death. It still gets them to half health and do you really think the are gonna try looking for you when they are half health? Nooooo, and even if they do just shoot them again. Unless they are a support I can almost guarantee you they will go down on the second shot.
More importantly the special thing about the plasma caster isnt just the power. It’s the splash damage. Fireteams like to group up right? Hit the ground right next to them and fuck them all up. Better yet you actually don’t need to hit the soldiers, just the ground next to them.
Unlike berserker you can literally always escape from a bad situation. Also unlike all the other classes you don’t use energy while in thermal. FURTHER MORE, you technically don’t even need to brink healing. Of course I still do I’m not anfucking psycho but with the new boar buff and small health pool, ONE boar and you are good G!
OH AND WHAT? THEY ALLOWED HER TO CARRY A MOTION DETECTOR OR AUDIO DECOY NOW? WHAT?
Scout may not be the best class anymore idk where the pred meta is going BUT I do know that scout is still 100 percent viable considering shes basically the only class I use and get on perfectly fine
