You assume that all scouts have zephyr at their disposal and have specced their scout with 42 shield.. well thats certainly not the case mate.
Maybe its been your experience with scouts that you've met in the frontiers till now.. fair enough.. but just to let you know that not all scouts in albion like the so called "fotm" setup.

Some have earnt most of their rp through meleeing people down, I think alot of people don't expect a scout to run up and melee em adds alil confussing. :)

Nope; you're only partially correct. It does indeed NOT help you avoid getting detected; but it doesnt give you 85 stealth. That's a misconception. It gives you additional levels when it comes to detecting stealthers. Basically you're then (shortly) a level 85 with the fitting detection for such a high level.

Its a common misconcept; but its rather easy to explain: If a tank uses stealthlore and he would have 35 stealth he would never find u with 50 stealth. He does. Its because he temporarily becomes level 85 for the part of detecting stealther-classes.

Yup, your stealthspec doesn't affect your detection ability. However, your character level does.

Though the delve of SL says;

"Target has a greater chance of uncovering stealthed opponents. If the target has the Stealth skill, their ability to use stealth is greater aswell."

pve only? :p

I personally thing that whilst zephyrd the person being zephyrd should not be able to be hit, would make it useful as defence and not completely overpowered.

You don't really expect people at FH to go a bit deeper than just whining now, do you?

Still waiting for Brittle guards and rest of caster tricks to get nerfed...

So from a nightshade point of view.
I will need the following RAs to have a chance against scouts.

Purge 2 =15 pts
Vanish 2 = 15pts (might get away with vanish 1 with mos 5, but as most high rr scouts have mos5 vanish 2 proably better)
Mos 5 = 34pts

= 64 pts which correct me if i wrong if rr 7.4

Agreed, a 10 second unbreakable CC castable every 2 minutes really is too much.

I guess so, people whine alot here, but not like it means anything as devs from mythic prob don't read this forum.

Considering you can 1-2 hit a caster, I think brittle guards are nice.

Yes high rr scouts eat little lurikeens for breakfast, but why shouldnt we ?
You want to fight scouts, pick the low rr ones, but dont expect to beat high
rr ones. I havent lost to a solo ns in NF in clean 1on1 and i dont expect to do it anytime soon. On the other hand i havent meet any ns which was prepared
to fight me, just wannabes who think a scout is free rp, like most have been
for 2 years.
