It came, it shot up, explode in beauty (1.7 range buff) and eventually it turns to ash and falls back down to Caldari Prime (YES I KNOW ITS AN AMARR WEAPON! BUT I WANT TO USE CALDARI PRIME BECAUSE I JUST WANT TO!) in the form of a nerf to end it once and for all.

From what I've read, I get the feeling that CCP Wolfman like the SCR. A lot was put into the thought of this gun. Its unique to an extent. Its not the hardest thing in the world to master, but it takes time to learn. The Basic SCR is good enough to use on its own.

I played with 0uter.Heaven's Eldest Dragon last night, and we decided to to dual SCR in a Skirmish. We r*ped face. And we also got r*ped by an ASCR guy on the other side too (the cheater SCR). The top players of that match were using the SCR, and the gap in scores showed that it was more than just the gun that was doing the work.

I get messaged all the time from noobs who call me hacker because I dropped them in 3-4 shots, less than .2 seconds. Even I was a little bit ignorant to the SCR when it was owning me (my fault for using Caldari) but then I used it for myself. Its not a pick up and go weapon.

But I'm taking this information to the grave. 99% of my SCR kills comes against from ignorant players. Some Prototype OP who thinks he doesn't have the right to die, and comes running full blaze with his AR in the wide open. Or some Starter noob that comes straight on.


The ultimate SCR balance is the fact that you can't take on 3 people at once. The TTK is short, but on the user's side it's long, because waiting for charges, semi auto fire, and the possibility of an over heat seize up makes that gun balanced. Just because someone makes it look easy, doesn't mean it is.

Plus, the darn PG it uses really makes you realize you can't just pile on the Damage Mods and Armor. I don't have the gun past level 3. I have level 3 reload, and nothing more skilled into it, proficiency 0.
