I just don't like it when it appears that someone is firing a semi auto weapon faster then it's auto counterpart. Which overheats after 20 or so shots dealing 50 dmg (or so) and leaving you standing there with burnt fingers meaning anyone with half decent aim will kill you. I'm sure it will, but when those 20 shots come out less then a sec it's pretty tough to stay alive.

What I say comes from the impressions I have from using it. I completely dropped my duvolle for my SCR, and for over a month and a half used it exclusively. I only return to the duvolle from once in a while because the sound it makes is more satisfying ;) My favorite tactic I developed: Burst fire: Charge up the shot, then unleash it onto an enemy, and keep firing two or three more shots. This kills anything but heavies, that require slightly more than two or three shots. This happens so quickly that most people see it as an insta kill, as the game has no time to react and show in the UI they have been hit. That's how I've been using it since day one, charge, fire, burst shots...should kill all but heavies within two to three seconds if that. Go forth, conquer in my Name, and reclaim that which I have given." - The Scriptures, Book of Reclaiming

Rei Shepard Spectre II 886	Posted - 2013.11.11 16:18:00 - [43] - Quote Spectral Clone wrote: Its freaking dangerous to use the regular ScR in CQC. I always switch to SMG. I use it at any range and have dropped up to 5 people in cqc and 7 on extended cqc ranges. The trick is combining your Drag shots & quick scopes while charging the gun (if heat allows it, so while you kill one guy, use the time between targets to charge or halfway charge the gun until you are on target), i think Lhuges was in that game where i went against a whole team and found about 7 of them on one ridge, it sure was funny seeing Gallente Brick logies trying to outstrafe quickscoped charged-shots.

I will probably spec in both of them, so whatever gets nerfed, I will always have a powerful weapon to play with. This is why I'm saving 1+ million SP. Go SCR. It's going to be the next big thing. I hate what they doing to the AR. I truly felt it needed no change besides adding the other racial variants. If the AR needs no changes, then every suit in the game needs an HP boost. The Standard AR does 425 damage per second, before applying shield/armor bias, damage modifiers, or even proficiency. Because of the ridiculous accuracy of the weapon, nonexistent spread, and lack of recoil until the 31st consecutive shot, this raw DPS is very easily realized in real combat situations. To compare the TAR to the ScR, I must use the ADV tier, as the AR has no STD level TAR. The GLU-Tac has 500 Damage per Second, firing 6-7 shots per second, or one-third of it's clip. Compared to the AR of this level, the GEK-Ass has only 446 Damage per Second. If the TAR still has such a greater DPS, why is it not being used more? The same reason why most people use the AR over the ScR, in that it is far easier to realize the potential DPS of the AR, and not too many can truly fire the TAR at 400 RPM (6-7 trigger-pulls per second) without the aid of scripts or modded controllers. Even if they could, it would interfere with their accuracy as it would jerk the input device, mouse or DS3. The ScR on the other hand, specifically the CRW-Scr, has 889 potential DPS. This sounds like alot, and that is because it is. However, this is offset by the number of shots this is per second, specifically 12. Try to click as much as you can HERE. Now divide by 10. Was you result 12 or over? Were you clicking as if you were playing an FPS, or were you hunched over to maximize click speed? Do it again normally, I won't tell anyone. Now imagine you're doing that while tracking a target. Also, after 15 shots you can't fire for five seconds, so you have to regulate your heat while shooting. It takes six seconds to drain the heat from the gun over time. As such, you can get one or two seconds of prime DPS before forced to stop firing or else take massive damage and be defenseless for five seconds. In short, GLU-Tac does 500 Damage per Second at 6-7 shots a second. The TAR can keep this u for three seconds, then have a three second downtime to reload, the fire again for three seconds in a continuous pattern. this leads to 250 Damage Per Second average over a minute of continuous firing and reloading. CRW-Scr does 889 Damage per Second at 12 shots a second. The ScR can only keep this up for a second before overheating for five, or stopping and letting heat drain for six. Assuming he seizes up, a 148 Damage per Second average over a solid minute of firing. Feedback damage over this time is 500 HP. Also, he must reload, which is 2.5 seconds every three seizes (or 18 seconds). This leads to the ScR having a 7.5 second downtime every third seize. Three reloads in one minute. This leads to three seconds of firing out of twenty seconds of using the gun. Therefore, the DPM of the CRW ScR is only 133. IN SHORTER GLU-Tac, all things considered, does 250 damage per second over a minute. CRW-ScR, all things considered, does 133 damage per second over a minute. NOTE: These maths were done before adding skills, have no damage modifier equipped, and have not taken into account the Charge feature due to its situational use. I could do this later if demand is high, but I think I've proven my point with this. ECM Equipment

That is WHY the TAR should be worse in all respects than the ScR. When you Spec into Blaster Rifles, you spec into Assault Rifles, NOT Tactical Rifles. When you Spec into Scrambler Rifles, you spec into Tactical Rifles, NOT Assault Rifles. Ergo, the TAR should be worse than the ScR. It is only there because for the longest time we didn't HAVE the designated Tactical Rifle tree. It is only there for people who don't want to spec into the actual Tactical Rifles, and it could not be removed without mass uproar and headsplosions. Should the TAR also have over 500 range because it is basically a weaker Sniper Rifle? Your logic is a slippery slope, and one which is hilarious to view. ECM Equipment

Used the AScR for a few rounds, it's better against Caldari but still feels like it's weaker than the AR against anything else, notably heavies and LAVs. I'll do maths for it later. Did you seriously just say the AScR is weaker than the AR against LAVS ? Are you for real ?? What the hell are you doing shooting at LAVS with a flipping AR/AScR ? So that's why there are some idiots shooting at my lav and doing nothing to it .. I thought it was players just out of the academy On a serious note ScR are laser weaponry they do 120% damage v shields and 80% damage v armour whereas AR's do 110% damage to shields and 90% damage to armour therefore it will obviously be better against the shield tanking Caldari than the often dual tanking (although it's usually more armour tanking than shield tanking) heavies and the AR will be better v anything that is slightly more armour based ...

The TAR was nerfed because people used modded controllers to fire it at ridiculous speeds with no downside. Try doing that with the ScR and it will burn your hands and seize. I believe people are doing the same withe the semi ScR. With no skills in it I can fire off max of 16 shots before it overheats. I tested this several times today. I'm gonna ask my buddy that has max operation skills in it to see how many he can do later today. I'm guessing it will be around 20-25 before overheat. I'd imagine you can turn a ScR into a burst ScR with a modded controller and fire 9-10 rounds with each button press.

Without Amarr assault, it fires as many bullets as a TAC has in it's clip. With it, it fires as many as the old tac. No it doesn't, and no it doesn't. 15 shots before overheat =/= 18 shots, plus the reload on the TAR is much quicker and less draconian than the overheat mechanic. Similarly, the 20 odd shots you get from Amarr assault =/= 30 shots. Also, the TAR is completely fine and undeserving of a range nerf. The SCR is also completely fine and undeserving of a range buff. Sure, the SCR has the ability to do a lot of damage in a short period of time - but that costs you, terribly if there's anyone half competent alive.

I'd imagine you can turn a ScR into a burst ScR with a modded controller and fire 9-10 rounds with each button press. You really don't want to mod your controller because the heat generation is per shot. If you mod your controller, every button press will be accompanied by 50 damage to you and a hissing sound as your weapon is disabled. Also, the weapon operation skill has no effect on the number of shots you can fire. It just makes it cool down quicker - the actual heat generation is unaffected. Continuous fire will still yield the same number of shots - if you stagger your shots you will notice a slight improvement though. Level 4 Forum Warrior Lenin of the glorious armoured revolution

However, this is a video game. That being said all weapons are supposed to be balanced and have it's strength and weaknesses. One weapon should not to be nearly the exact same thing but inherently better in all aspects just because of lore and terminology. And don't give me that "Welcome To New Eden" BS. That is no excuse for something to be 100% better than another weapon or for something to be insanely OP. (Not saying SCRs are OP) I think someone is upset that SCRs are viable weapons. Please, tell me where I have said that I am upset about SCRs being viable. Balance and Fair Game Mechanics > New Eden's BS. There there Mr. Scout and Ms. Heavy, don't cry You'll still be useful in my eyes
