Scout checklist

The logistics checklist was one of the posts where I gained much more than the readers. And a good goblin always return to the place of getting something. So here I am again, crowdsourcing my scout.

Her job is to support my null/WH life with finding gatecamps, scanning down signatures, wormholes, baddies and also by lighting cynos. She will fly two ships. The first is the Buzzard, a cloaky ship with bonus to scanning:

Update: forgot bubbles. Warpstabs out, inertia stabilizer and damage control in.
The idea is traveling cloaked. If cloak is compromised: hoping that the warp disrupting ships don't have enough points to stop warp and the DPS ships don't have enough alpha/lock time to break the tank of the overheated med slots. If they do, well, the Buzzard pollution of New Eden decreases by 1.

Since Buzzards can't have cynos, I will simply use a Manticore with T1 modules for that.

She has +3 implants and learns the following skills to level 5:

• Astrometrics
• Caldari Frigate
• Electronics
• Electronics Upgrades
• Engineering

Level 4:

• Afterburners
• Astrometric Pinpointing
• Astrometric Rangefinding
• Cloaking
• High speed maneuvering
• Covert Ops
• Science
• Warp Drive Operation

Level 3:

• Astrometric Acquisition
• Cynosural Field Theory
• Energy Management
• Evasive Maneuvering
• Fuel conservation
• Mechanics
• Navigation
• Shield Management
• Shield Upgrades
• Spaceship Command
• Tactical Shield Manipulation
• Thermodynamics

Comment, discuss, let's find the most efficient plan for a cheap scout. Again, I know that lvl 5 is better than 4 and 4 is better than 3. But remember, falling short means losing a cheap-fit cheap ship while learning 1.7M skills costs a PLEX (as the alternative of stopping my main for a long time is another account).
