Assault rifles have got to be less accurate, hip firing and ADS
I use the Assault Scrambler Rifle and can out DPS almost anything EXCEPT ARs. Even with two complex damage mods it's still not enough for some reason.
I decided to try it out and got to level 3 AR operation, no skills into anything else AR related, and was able to down players with the Gek just as easily with my Carthum Assault Scrambler Rifle with proficiency 4. THIS IS RIDICULOUS.
I shouldn't have to run away from players with Assault rifles as they tear through my armor like it's nothing. I run a suit with 250 shield/550 armor and I still get sliced up like nothing by Assault rifles.
There was even a time when I was in a firefight with a militia AR on a militia heavy, and lost for no reason whatsoever.
The reason I use my scrambler instead of an AR is because it's supposed to be more accurate at long range, it has more ammunition, and possibly a headshot bonus (hence scrambler), but apparently none of this matters when you have the almighty Assault Rifle that can be deadly in anyone's hands, at any range, and with any suit.

The breach should have high accuracy (how the standard is now), medium rate of fire, high damage, and short range. The standard should have medium accuracy, high rate of fire, medium damage and medium range (how the breach is now) The tactical should have super high accuracy, super low rate of fire, high damage and long range The burst should have high accuracy, medium rate of fire, medium damage, and long range
Currently: The standard has high accuracy, high rate of fire, medium damage, and long range.

I still have a scout alt. I actually find myself fairing better as a scout cause I can actually keep an eye on players. |

For now I'm just having to keep my range on assault rifles instead of rushing in, try and keep my longer optimal to my advantage instead of falling into theirs.
I also switched out a damage mod for a shield recharge so that I can use the buffer more often, and used the extra pg to fill up my equipment (maybe one of these days I'll skill into repair nanohives). Seems to be helping if I don't just rush in like an assault player. |

It's not going to put you down fast at range. Check the range they are hitting you at It also may seem to be further away, because the FOV is wider now, almost like it was in Chromosome (at least it seems that way to me). but ranges are spot on. Oh but it does. Far faster than my laser can put down enemies.
