Scouting Guide updated

Add comments

Got around to updating the guide earlier than expected. Rather than simply adding it as another new post I’ve edited the original one here. Thankfully minimal grammar and spelling edits. Updated the PDF on eve-files as well (link is on the original post).

Brief rundown of what was added:

  • Added further detail to scout ship selection. The last three paragraphs are completely new.
  • Added a blurb about static scouts in the types section.
  • Expanded the overview & scanning section to include some basic details of using probe equipped ships.
  • The overview section now includes a basic recommendation for what to include on a scouting overview.

Almost wanted to add more detail to using D-scan and the system scanner, but it would make this guide far too long and those have been covered well by others. Plus I’d rather not need to add in pictures to this already long guide. :P May decide to try to flesh out the details of picking good scout ships further if I have another look at it. May be unlikely as it is difficult to delve further without going into the details of fleet types, compositions, and objectives of the fleet…pretty much another post right there on an area I’m much more unfamiliar with.

Comments and criticism appreciated as always.

Update: Added a small segment about EAFs as I totally neglected to include them. Thanks go to Logan for spotting that omission.
