Give the AR a 10% damage nerf, or make it have less range, take 10% of the Assault Scrambler Rifle off, and give it the accuracy of what the AR is now.

Do the math... that doesn't even make sense in what YOUR trying to do.

Give the AR a 10% damage nerf, or make it have less range, take 10% of the Assault Scrambler Rifle off, and give it the accuracy of what the AR is now.

I'm not quite sure what that sentence is supposed to mean, but I don't think nerving AR range is a solution since currently no weapon aside from the sniper rifle has equal range to it. We need at least a %10 damage nerf, personally I'd aim more for 20%

It makes the AR a Gallente weapon, and makes the Scrambler an Amarrian weapon.

the day to day scourge of this game is the raw DPS of the hit-scan weapons combined with Auto-Aim.

Some people are suggesting a 10% drop in damage to the main battle rifles, but I'm thinking more like 30% to start.

A Duvolle does a BASE damage of 467.5 per second. That's enough to drop most fits in the game.

IN ONE SECOND.

A 10% nerf brings the DPS down to 420.75. That's still enough to drop most fits in the game in under a second.

30% brings the DPS down to 327.25 base. Three seconds to drop a fully decked out proto suit with 900+ hp? Now we're entering the realm of reason.

The nerf for ARs and ScRs *STARTS* at 30%, or HP in this game will remain a near meaningless statistic.

For comparison, the Freedom Mass Driver gets 270 DPS, *IF* you get a direct hit. Which is why I share Mordecai Sanguine's sentiment that a nerf should NOT be across the board.
