Depending on what u want to play:

A Saracen ? A Briton ? Autotrain or not ?

High Bow Dmg with less melee abilities (Sniper) ? Slam Rogue ? Melee Scout ?

Some nice speccs are ...

40 Bow / 36 Stealth / 20 Shield /50 Trust

(Bow Dmg. ok, *Dragonfang" Trust Style (9 sec. Stun after Evade)

40 Bow / 35 Stealth / 42 Shield / 35 Slash

(Bow Dmg. ok, *Slam* Anytime Stund and fair melee Dmg)

50 Bow / 35 Stealth / 23 Shield / 39 Slash

(Sniper Spec with Backstyle Shield Stun to get running enemies)

45 Bow / 34 Stealth / 42 Shield / 29 Slash

(High Bow Dmg. with *Slam* Anytime Stun)

... all these are w/o Autotrain

you need 50 stealth with equipment and RR

you need 42 shield

and you need high bow dammage ( 40+ i think)

and spé thrust more than slash... you'll get much higher weapon skill with dex and dex/q charge ( st/c charge is much more difficult to get)

Forget sniper, couse bow damage on uthgard is far away live like.
Atm, scout is one of weakest classes on uthgard, roll a ranger, they are very very strong in melee, and, in surprising way, they make more bow damage than scout.

if your scout cant use dex/qui charge, because he havent any, or isnt lvl50, no wonder ranger does more damage, because of selfbuff.

funny is that scouts was considered the weaker archer for a long time, then came along the archery love and boom rangers were weak and scouts was OPed (slam + new archery dmg = OP)

oh well, hope staff finds a middle way :p

/laugh
slam? rofl, every player has purge, and anyway:
shot+rapidshot+slam+critshot=140+85+80+320(in the best case) then, scout is dead.
I wont post more, its useless anyway, because we were claiming for de-nerf the scout 2 years ago, and we are still waiting for it.

I'm a little confused here I just started rolling a scout here during my spare time. Should I not be? Would an Inf be better for solo stealth style ? How about for leveling what would be better the Scout or the Inf?

Scout is barely useless for soloing, if u want pown easily, roll sb.
If you have guts enough to face the mid op, roll infi and join albion stealther guild -> Shadow Quiver.

@Tarnum

First of all Mids aren´t op , but there are a few of players who like to zerg with their high RRs all the time.

Second thing Alb stealther aren´t better.When i´m running with my NS solo , after 1 kill , next time 2 or more Alb stealther come to kill me.

Atleast scout isnt bad , he can easily win a 1vs1 or 1vs1vs1 (it´s the correct solo fight,cause we have 3 realms), but not against sbs and ns.

@robinsoon

If you want a albzerger guild with no fairness and only ganking with quantity instead of quality , join Shadow Quiver or French Blades ;P
(short flame ,pls ignore ;P )

The best thing is ,when you want to play your scout as your beloved char, train up a second one to 50 whixh can be need for grps (like cleric) . So you dont waste RvR time with running around and finding only Grps.

A ranger is NEVER unbuffed
and btw the bow dmg isn´t that baaad
if you do something like
cirt shot shot shot rapid - it would be like
400+200+200+200+100=1100
