Or it's the whole damage mod thing.....nah that can't be it. no, it's fine that a SCR can deal 1200 damage in 1 second flat or kill starter fits in 3 rounds (half a second). they don't do too much damage or have too fast an RoF, they're also not deadly accurate. they're FINE says the average DUST player who wants to keep destroying new players at the redline in 3 shots whilst wearing 800hp armour and simultaneously making sure those new players never pick up DUST again. a gun which does more than double the base damage of an AR which also does 3x the base damage on an AR when upgraded is fine and definitely not OP. you're stupid to even suggest such a thing. next thing you know your thread will get 700 views and 1000 people jumping down your throat. don't threaten to take the kid's toys away!!!

Alena Ventrallis Osmon Surveillance Caldari State 244	Posted - 2013.12.08 18:13:00 - [20] - Quote As a scrambler rifle user (went proto yesterday, woo!) I will cede that the scrambler is too useful outside it's intended range. However, that wonky-ass laser rifle profile will not touch my weapon. I hate it. Instead, how about this: Increase hip fire spread, slightly (by like 50 or so) nerf ROF, and reduce magazine capacity to 25-30. Im for an increase of hip fire spread most of all (nothing extraordinary, maybe by 50% and adjust from there) But the damage on it and ROF is fine. The issue is not the damage it deals, but the application of that damage. All weapons were balanced around bad hit detection. That's why TTK is so short in the first place. Instead of nerfing a weapons raw damage output, why not adjust how well it can apply that damage?

Kal Kronos L.O.T.I.S. Public Disorder. 140	Posted - 2013.12.08 18:13:00 - [21] - Quote Hipfire is broke ass, heat glitch is broke ass, fix those and rof is fine. Leave those, then cap rof not too drastic and gun is still beast but not broke ass. I've been using the thing exclusively since 1.5, and can say complaints are justified but damn AR is just as broke ass. Dedicated redline sniper, tower forger, nade spammer, protostomper, formerly mass driver, and now scrambler CQC spammer.

Range should be heavily nerfed and damage light buffed (to make it THE short range assault rifle like it's intended.) Scrambler rifle should just have his RoF light nerfed and his hip-fire light nerfed too. And (only) semi auto should have a smaller Mag. SMG should have a light RoF reduction. (or a hip fire nerf.)

This entire post is garbage. If anything give ars scopes. The one thing in this game that is making people soft is the fact that you really have a very good fighting chance. Not against explosives. You are actually fkd against explosives and tanks. But on foot, weapon in hand you have a chance. Ar is fine. Scrambler is hype and most of you in all honesty are weaklings.

Or it's the whole damage mod thing.....nah that can't be it. I think SRs need a buff. Twice as much damage and a "stun" affect that slows down scout suits when you hit them with it.

Cosgar ParagonX 8495	Posted - 2013.12.08 18:53:00 - [32] - Quote I personally don't have a problem with the ScR, I think it's more about the proficiency skill throwing off balance for all weapons. Instead of just a damage bonus, it should be something like scope zoom. The AScR could use some work though. That muzzle flash needs to be toned down. I tried to put a level into Amarr Commando once, but got a server notification saying "Why?"
RED FARM Punishers of Uranus 20	Posted - 2013.12.08 19:25:00 - [33] - Quote This is in regards to semi auto: Horribly inaccurate while firing fast. Bullets spread about 2 body widths. Got to click every shot which is a pain. Cannot get off more than 18 rounds or so before overheat which gives you damage and you are defenseless. You cannot even swap to sidearm. I do not feel they are OP due to this.

You cannot even swap to sidearm. I do not feel they are OP due to this. 3 or 4 hipfire shots at close range is all you need for most suits and that is most of the deaths by tactical scrambler I've received and most of the kills I've gotten with it too. Its actually harder to get kills with that weapon from a distance than up close which is ass back wards from "intended role" I think. It hip fires too quickly and accurately for a "tactical" weapon (at least by this game's definition of tactical)

hackerzilla Defenders of the Helghast Dream 584	Posted - 2013.12.08 20:55:00 - [43] - Quote They are OP. The RoF is way to high; you can just spam it like the old TAR. Damage is WAY to high, 80 damage on the STD! That 4 hit kills the Caldari Starter Fits and 5 or 6 hits the Gallente Starter Fits (the average suit a new player will wear.) and 3 shots the minnie starter. Way to accurate in CQC, it should be like the lazor. Overheat is fine, and the bypass glitch will be fixed. EDIT: or CCP just removes auto-aim and aim assist? Host of Zilla's Games!

People are slow, and there are cycles of FotM. It took people over a month to realize how strong Flaylocks were. People still haven't realized how strong Proto SMGs/Pistols are. They are starting to. There is a ScP nerf thread going on right now When you turn a corner and find the entire enemy team.Oh Heck Logi, Tanker, Heavy

The rate of fire is fine. Notice how the scrambler rifles have remained largely unchanged since they were introduced and we're only just now hearing complaints about them. People ran out of stuff to QQ about. This is true. Here's a relevant topic from back in July. https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1024497#post1024497 If the ScR is so OP how come 5 months ago it was barely used? People are slow, and there are cycles of FotM. It took people over a month to realize how strong Flaylocks were. People still haven't realized how strong Proto SMGs/Pistols are. That's right. It's a bandwagon. One guy says it's OP, a whole herd of tryhards will follow suit and suddenly it's all over the forums. Me, I spec'd into ScRs and flaylocks the day they were released back in January and I'll keep using them whether they are god-tier or broken. Soon as my internet is back I'm going with rr but the scr shall be on my back up suits,incase shields start coming back Christ is lord Sanguine knights , open recruitment, join now.

The Black Art Fatal Absolution 224	Posted - 2013.12.08 21:24:00 - [53] - Quote I think it's a matter of perspective. In pubs it seems too strong, because there a lot of cheap fits and low SP characters. In PC, where everyone has min-maxed suits, it's balanced, especially with armor tanking being in favor right now. Should CCP balance their game around cheap suits and low SP characters?

Should CCP balance their game around cheap suits and low SP characters? Its not just the cheap suits. I run pretty much advanced tier and they tear me up, but mostly at close range. At long range they ate easy to avoid and do more wounding causing one to seek cover. At close range they kill before you can even react. Its much like the tac ar heavy damage and RoF because CCP realized it would be hard to land a number of shots at range, however, it is just too good at close range too. lower RoF a little and increase hip fire spread a little and it would be fine.
Aria Gomes Death by Disassociation Zero-Day 182	Posted - 2013.12.08 22:18:00 - [56] - Quote The rate of fire needs to be toned down. A lot of times they are stacked with dmg mods as well but I can't stop them from putting on dmg mods b/c I'd probably do it too. But yeah rate of fire is crazy. ((I've got ScR. at Advanced))
Monty Mole Clone Shiv M 84	Posted - 2013.12.08 22:29:00 - [57] - Quote if you tone down the rate of fire you will just be extending the time you can keep fireing before overheat, whats needed is a heat increase to bring down the time you can keep fireing

As I see it though the charge has no real downside, the heat doesn't rise more with the shot / expend more ammunition. I don't know if this is strictly true but basing it on vids I've seen. Also with the overheat glitch you can take out another 2 /3 enemies without heating again. And with the Assault variant I've seen my CEO demonstrate that he has to empty a clip and a half before that overheats, again not much compensation for a weapon thats more powerful than a proto AR. Like I said I have no skills in it and I generally don't get along with the weapon. just my observations and I admit I could be entirely wrong. so pinch of salt pls "...where Bylothgar the Ill-postured was made King of the People With No Name But Decent Footwear"

For me 2 charged shots is nearly overheating. My Ascr overheats at about half a clip.

I don't understand how you could say it's more powerful... Solo Player Squad status: Locked
