A proto heavy no, a proto medium maybe but a scout yes it's completely fine.

hey its being balanced ccp is buffing it members?


omfg ccp you suck royally for that one btw ..beyond you trolling the whole vehicle community with the idea of a vehicle lock in 1.7 this deserves u 2 b burned at the stake

...the SCR rifile skills reduce heating per shot and decrease cool down time...

The real problem is aim assist. Every idiot who can pull a trigger is landing exponentially more shots which makes high-damage single-shot guns like the ScR so deadly.

This game was so much more fun before aim assist.

I don't believe this to be true. It's the bigger hit box and the improved hit detection.

I don't even notice a difference if I switch the aim assist off and on.

D Tac damage per bullet: 78.5
Imperial Scrambler Rifle damage per charge: 79.5?

Accuracy of D Tac: Zero recoil, 100% perfect accuracy ADS or hipfire unless on the move but still accurate
Imperial Scrambler Rifle: Zero recoil, 100% perfect accuracy ADS or hipfire unless on the move but still accurate

Sights of D Tac: A nice ACOG scope with a small zoom but loses preferential vision
Sights of Imperial Scrambler: A red dot sight with an insignificant zoom but retains preferential vision


Clip size of D Tac: had a clip of 36.
Clip size of Imperial Scrambler: 45? But can overheat. Not sure how much it effects the Imperial, but hinders the standard version

Rate of fire of D Tac: Rediculas
Rate of fire of an Imperial Scrambler: More rediculas. Wish i was in front of my PS3 to determine the exact ROF

Both do more damage than tank blaster turrets with a damage mod and max profficentcy, but the SCR gains a bonus to sheilds and a debuff to armor. Admitively, it doesent matter if your armor speced you die quickly ethire way but its death to shield suits. Well, faster death. The D Tac killed everyone just as quick and everyone was screwed, but they were screwed equally.

So the orginal D Tac was indeed OP AF, and it got nerfed pretty good. But the SCR has the same stats as the orginal D tac except it fires faster, has more ammo & clip, murders shields faster, does slightly more damage in general and has an overheat function. Not entirely sure how much that effects the later variants, but it effects the standard rifle. Then again, i have the absolute minimal stats to get standard so i geuss it wont matter much at imperial.

So we cried the D tac was OP because it was, so why hasent the SCR been balanced yet? Is it because not every single person in the game is using them yet, like it happened with the D Tac?
P.S, im gona use it here and there untill its nerfed. it really doesent matter at this point

This is very true. I took a stock Scrambler and used it on my Gallente fitting. The overheat was just enough to screw me over several times. However, with the extra bullets of the Amarr Assault, I would've done a lot better. The Scrambler Rifle is odd in that it's overall utility is affected a lot more than other guns by the suit you use.

The Scrambler Rifle as it is now is not OP. It has huge burst damage potential, but it's tricky to use. The numbers are high, but who can hit the fire cap consistently without overheating and land all of their shots, while also getting Charged Shots off? Anyone can hit the maximum DPS for an Assault Rifle simply by holding the trigger. Pulse it and there's not even any recoil. I gun frailer suits down 60, 70 meters away by pulsing the trigger.

ScR takes skill, and ability.

I think this has alot to do with the TTK although I wouldn't imagine that this is not just also a systemic problem the AR tactical faced, CCP having said that if the Tac AR was over preforming past the last nerf they gave they would go on to adjusting it some more, arguably you could say the SR is over preforming from where the AR Tac left off. Personally it doesn't feel like a big issue as the Flaylock was...but of course the more people make a weapon a 'go-to' gun the more CCP will start to rear it's ugly head.
