NEEDS A BUFF.
NOw before everybody starts loosing their s***... Hear me out. The RR owns the SCR in every range. The CR owns the SCR in its own range (Each burst representing at least 96 damage{at STD level}, its a LOT more than the 79.5 per bullet a VIZIAM SCR can deal per R1 Button press) The AR still owns the SCR at Closer ranges and Spraying and praying.
And both the AR and the Combat rifle are a LOT more cheaper than the Scrambler R to equip CPU/PG wise.
THE SCR rifles SHOULD be at the same level as the other rifles,but as always, amarr tech has been neglected lately by CCP...
There is a reason why the SCR rifle is almost completley unused nowadays. Huge disadvantages, nothing to make them worth it. AND NOW,the amarr Assault will LOOSE the bonus that increased the DPS output of the weapon!
I propose a 50% REDUCTION IN HEAT BUILDUP , for charged shots.

At mid range the SCR can defeat AR and CR users pretty well, has the 2nd highest range, and can even work well in close range if you go about it correctly. I think its fine the way it is, and far from underpowered. I would love to have a closed style camera-sight though. The only thing that worries me is the removal of the assault bonus.

My rail rifle looses to a scrambler mostly because I'm caldari. Its a weapon that does exceedingly well against shields. The rail rifle is good against armor, and since everyone wanted armor doctrine its better against most suits. However that is not to say the scrambler doesn't hold its own, its charge shot and head shot bonus gives it quite the edge. What you are preposing would make it op and fotm, I can already see !y scrambler rifle friend dropping everything before my rail rifle charges. No. |

Increase range. Reduce clip to 25. Range is fine. Rail weapons (rail rifle) are supposed to have the highest range, and laser tech (scrambler rifle) should have the 2nd highest range; the scrambler rifle has the 2nd highest range of all the rifles. It does not need more, it already beats the AR and CR at range.

Highest Drawback, Overheat mechanic. Highest PG consumption.High CPU consumption. Assault Amar loosing the heat buildup bonus. A sight that does not work in its optimal range. Weak in anything but 1 on 1 engagements.
I mean.... There really isnt a reason to use the SCR over the RR for example.

LEAVE MY DAMN SR ALONE DAMNIT! ITS FINE I literally wreck the hell out of people with my standard one, its called charge your shots. 1 well placed charged shot puts down almost anyone at standard, stop trying to use it like a tac rifle and use it as a charge shot weapon. Im a damn commando and I get put down all the time by SR's I use all 4 Rifles and i think all of them are fine, how i beat each one RR i close in fast and keep shooting because its not strong at closer ranges, CR If on an assault i fall back and carefully place shots if on logi i close in SR close in fast and dont pop out until close enough to get a kill shot AR keep distant

I proto'd into scrambler rifles and there have been plenty of times when I've offed myself due to overheating. I would agree that a longer build up would be good for this weapon. I also think that 50% is too much. 25%-30% would be agreeable. I also don't agree with the scope idea .. it has a reflex sight .. but then again that's my favorite sight .. so maybe I'm just biased

PG/CPU is manageable, especially if you have maxed out core skills. Sight is not ideal, I would like a camera-sight for viewing at higher ranges, like I already said. The Amarr assault bonus bonus removal is a problem in my opinion, like I already said. This has not happened yet, so cannot be used as justification to say the SCR is underpowered.
If CCP goes through with changing the assault bonus, then a 15% reduction of heat buildup (equivalent of Amarr assault lv 3) is the only buff it would need in my opinion. I currently have Amarr assault level 3 only, and I find the SCR to be a viable and useful weapon.

a PROPER SCOPE
The problem isn't the scrambler rifle, its the rifle dps for all rifles. Your reasoning for the combat rifle is clever but has a fatal flaw, which is that the rof accounts for the 3 shot burst.
Lets look at some rifle dps:
scrambler rifle is 705 rpm 79.5 damage per bullet. combat rifle is 1200 rpm divided by 3=400 rpm of 96 damage shot dpm ScrR=705x79.5=56047.5 dpm CR=400x96=38400 dps ScrR= 56047.5/60=934.125 dps CR=38400/60=640 in addition to the scrambler rifle nearly tripling the dps of the SMG (non assault variant comes out to around 350 isn for STD) it is also capable of a charged shot capability which takes out any shield value in the game with one shot, and more. if anything, the heat buildup should be increased.

Here is what I think needs to be done with the Scrambler Rifle.......... nothing.
In case a lot of you didn't notice all the rifles have pros and cons. Theses pros and cons cause one rifle to be better than others in certain situation and believe or not even certain maps.
This is how it should be. If you play as an assault and actually assault you would benefit yourself to be proficient in all the rifles. That way when situations change on the battlefield you can adapt and use the best rifle for the job.
I would rather look bad and win, than look good and lose.

Your math is pretty. +1 But the fact is=a SINGLE press of the R1 button on my controller results in more damage for my Standard Combat rifle than my Prototype SCR. Plus the CR is a LOT easier to fit. And have a more useful sight.
The only true advantage is, how you mentioned the CHARGED SHOT, which WITHOUT the amarr assault bonus is not exactly the best of features since the threat of overheating mid gunfight is not very appealing.

Your lobbying will only unbalance the game in favor of modded controllers on amarr assaults, which would take out 100% of the variety in the game. Currently, Assault a k.0 with a viziam scrambler rifle and 3x damage mods is the top tier FOTM, and arguing that this gun, which is currently the strongest in the game, especially with aim assist, needs to be buffed is silly, and i respectfully disagree with what you are trying to do. The guns that do need a buff are the laser rifle, nova knives, plasma cannon, and also possibly the shotgun (more for hit detection and possibly range than anything else though for that one)

The CR does more damage per burst than a SCR does per shot, but the SCR has higher range and charge shot ability to make up for that. In my experience, the AR can definitely get wrecked by a SCR user even in its own range. The RR right now is kind of OP in my opinion, so I don't think the fact that its better than the SCR is saying much considering its better than everything else as well.

I feel sympathy for the Amarrian Scum losing their heart reduction bonus, though.

The CR does more damage per burst than a SCR does per shot, but the SCR has higher range and charge shot ability to make up for that. In my experience, the AR can definitely get wrecked by a SCR user even in its own range. The RR right now is kind of OP in my opinion, so I don't think the fact that its better than the SCR is saying much considering its better than everything else as well.
Hmm.I could swear you main'd something else, since last time i saw you in battle i think you were either using a CR or a RR. FOR THE WHOLE MATCH.
But well. yeah its my bad assuming stuff....
''The CR does more damage per burst than a SCR does per shot, but the SCR has higher range and charge shot ability to make up for that.'' The CR has Better fitting requirements and a 90% vs shields 110% vs armor to make up for those, not to mention a sight that works in its optimal range.

You guys keep posting hate below. TY. Your lobbying will only unbalance the game in favor of modded controllers on amarr assaults, which would take out 100% of the variety in the game. Currently, Assault a k.0 with a viziam scrambler rifle and 3x damage mods is the top tier FOTM, and arguing that this gun, which is currently the strongest in the game, especially with aim assist, needs to be buffed is silly, and i respectfully disagree with what you are trying to do. The guns that do need a buff are the laser rifle, nova knives, plasma cannon, and also possibly the shotgun (more for hit detection and possibly range than anything else though for that one)
Well of course. this is in the matter of Rifle VS rifle. In the matter of Rifle vs anything else , all Rifles are overpowering.

The problem isn't the scrambler rifle, its the rifle dps for all rifles. Your reasoning for the combat rifle is clever but has a fatal flaw, which is that the rof accounts for the 3 shot burst.
Lets look at some rifle dps:
scrambler rifle is 705 rpm 79.5 damage per bullet. combat rifle is 1200 rpm divided by 3=400 rpm of 96 damage shot dpm ScrR=705x79.5=56047.5 dpm CR=400x96=38400 dps ScrR= 56047.5/60=934.125 dps CR=38400/60=640 in addition to the scrambler rifle nearly tripling the dps of the SMG (non assault variant comes out to around 350 isn for STD) it is also capable of a charged shot capability which takes out any shield value in the game with one shot, and more. if anything, the heat buildup should be increased.
Your math is pretty. +1 But the fact is=a SINGLE press of the R1 button on my controller results in more damage for my Standard Combat rifle than my Prototype SCR. Plus the CR is a LOT easier to fit. And have a more useful sight. The only true advantage is, how you mentioned the CHARGED SHOT, which WITHOUT the amarr assault bonus is not exactly the best of features since the threat of overheating mid gunfight is not very appealing.
I personally think that the scrambler rifle needs an overheat at 10-12 shots, but it would keep its current damage, but have the op skill increase it up to 15 shots, BUT all other rifles get a huge nerf to dps and hip fire accuracy on the non assault variants (thinking 15-20%), as well as a range nerf of 5-10% for all rifles as well. but thats just me, trying to keep TTK reasonable and allowing specialty weapons to do their jobs better than rifles

The ONLY rifle to have a weakness of 80% effectiveness vs something Weak in anything but 1 on 1 engagements.I mean.... There really isnt a reason to use the SCR over the RR for example. Well..it must me just me but... : /
BTW this posts is based on observations and slight testing with each weapon in different scenarios. I'll be using scouts soon and i dont think i'll use the SCR anymore, doesnt mean i wont speak my mind on it. TY. Not trying to sound like a smartass but... What exactly do you guys expect from these guns? Do you want them to be the right hand of god? I use the scrambler and can say that it is the most balanced gun in this game. You just have to learn how to use the gun to your strengths. If the laser rifle can kick ass against the RR and CR then the SCR will do just fine. Pick your targets carefully you really don't have to kill every single person you see best to leave some targeys for others who are better suited for the job.

It's been my primary weapon since the TTK debacle in 1.6 that made the LR garbage. I think it's a pretty solid weapon currently when run on an Amarr assault. I have major concerns about the Amar assault loosing its heat bonus. That's a major issue that needs to not happen.
I'd also like to see all of the racial ARs (+SMG) get a base damage nerf (10%-20%) to bring TTK back inline with other weapons like the Mass Driver, LR, Flaylock, ScP, and indirectly buffing the HMG as a result (its DPS is fine, it's the racial ARs that are outperforming it).

I used the RR today for 2 matches, I have level 1 in the other rifles to try them (except the AR since I have an exile), but the vast majority of the weapons I use are overwhelmingly SCRs. Ask Cat Merc, Mobius Wyvern, Arkena Wyrnspire, Golthan (not sure that's how you spell his name), or Whinis if you want to check.
I can't overstate how awesome the charge shot is, especially if the enemy doesn't see you, if you have cover, or know where the person is coming from (active scanner FTW). I don't think this has been said, but I rarely ever have to worry about running out of ammo with the SCR, its very ammo efficient.

However, a nerf is still needed I think the SMG should have a TTK in line with the other sidearms like the flaylock, ScP, and the ones for 1.8. I've been gunned down with the SMG and killed before the hit markers appear on the screen. That's just too fast for a sidearm IMO, and they're ridiculously easy to use. They should of course be viable, but people are using them as primary weapons instead of finishers, which is usually an indication there is a balance problem.

Yeah... No... Pre 1.7 the only reason I had to use an AR was because it's Gallente. SCR > AR
After 1.7 it's still kicking ass, just that it was outdone by the new rifles which are OP themselves.

King , sometimes I agree with you but other times like this I wonder if we play the same game mate lol. Scrambler rifles are very powerful. They have that charge shot lets not forget!
On top of that they are like the TAC AR of old (All be it with a little less range) but in their favour apart from having the charge shot mechanic, even on a totally non bonused suit you can spray many rounds off in cqc, you can also shoot well at range and they have a really decent size clip.
Couple the scram rifle with an amarr assault suit and they are very very powerful.
The TAC AR got nerfed into the ground, you see more laser rifles and even god damn burst AR`s then you do TAC AR`s. The scram rifle needs no changes. Certainly not any buffs! |

The CR and RR need a fairly strong nerf. The Scrambler Rifle needs on too, but a slightly smaller one.
Add a small delay between the burst of the CR. 0.05 of a second seems good to me, that still allows it to have a DPS of 480/504/528. This is above the DPS of the two fully automatic rifles(which it should be, because it its fully automatic and does require a bit more skill). Another problem with the CR is its rediculously low fitting price. I understand that a key feature of Minmatar weapons is their comparatively low fitting price, but the CR takes it to a bit of an extreme. It should to a certain level mirror the fitting costs of the Scrambler Rifle, so an increase in CPU costs is what I am proposing. Perhaps an extra 33% CPU across the board.
The Rail Rifle needs a serious look at its hipfire dispersion. For a weapon that performs so well at long range, it shouldn't be as good as it is a close quarters combat. My suggestion is to get rid of its slow ADS aiming speed, and increase its hipfire dispersion by a wide margin. This will push its minimum effective range out further, allow it to retain its 65-85m range dominance, and allow it it be semi-usefull at 40-65m, but not as good as the BR or CR.
The ScR is a tough one to tackle for two reasons. 1.) Its semiautomatic. This factor alone makes it harder to balance. More variables. 2.) I like it. I will try to look at it with a unbiased eye, but take everything I say with a grain of salt.
With that out of the way, here is my suggestion.
Lower its RoF from 705 RpM to 600 RpM. Thats it. This accomplishes two things. It makes the use of modded controllers quite useless with it, and lowers its effective DPS to more reasonable levels... 720/756/792. This is a bit more inline with what a semiautomatic rifle should be. If it wasn't for the draconic overheating function and purposefully frontloaded DPS, I would say that that is too much.
So? What do you think?
Yours Truly,

Your ScR evaluation is incorrect. So many ways to use it and you leave that recommendation? There is so much more you can say besides that.
With a ScR, it is all about positioning, effective flanking, shot placement and heat management, not just "wait for them to close in on you and hope for the best".
If you can bait ONE enemy and you have cover nearby OR high ground, then that is an advantageous position. However....if you try to bait MORE than one or two enemies under similar circumstances, you will die. A good ScR user will utilize his surroundings to his advantage and rely solely on good FPS mechanics to make him formidable.
You said "close in fast" but great ScR users will arrange enemies into their gun's optimal range. I have an advantage over any gun in 40-50 meters. I know that and I use it effectively.

Absolutely not. I exclusively use the ScR and I actually like the fact that it is the only AR that does this. Most of us can manage it quite well anyway, so keep the overheat ONLY on Amarr weaponry. Sheesh. Not that big of a deal really UNLESS the racial bonus is removed. Then...we have a problem.

Give Amarr Assaults their new bonus, but make the heat sink reduction completely passive, similar to how all Minmatar medium frames have a passive 1HP/s regen rate on armor.

Gotta admit, being able to cycle / precharge the laser rifle up for half of the entire clip before you start actually hitting someone would be nice - not having to worry about heat.
Yea thought the LR needs something different to that. CCP did say they are hot fixing and giving the laser some love so I am looking forwards to that. |

I just think that the ScR is waaaay too powerful in CQC.
Just make it's hipfire accuracy terrible. This will prevent the Charge+Spam that makes the ScR a shotgun in CQC. I'm fine with it's power at range right now, but it's just too good of an all around weapon.
The hipfire spam is absolutly broken on the ScR. I've seen people just chase you around corner's, spamming the trigger almost indefinitely. I can't wait for you guys to lose the build-up reduction. Learn how to aim if you are gonna use it. You do more than enough damage with prof and mods (Around 100dmg a shot). Just stick back at range and murder people.
I'm a big fan of keeping the range profiles strong.
RR should be a Long range weapon. Hard to use at mid range. Almost useless at short range.
ScR should be a Mid-Long range weapon. Easy to use at mid range, yet lacking damage at long. Hard to use at close range.
CR should be a Close-Mid range weapon. Easy to use a close range, yet lacking damage at mid range. Useless past 60m.
AR should be a Close-Mid range weapon. Amazing at close range, yet lacking damage at mid range. Useless past 40m.
In short: The area's of dominance.
0-40 AR : Should destroy anyone at this range. This should be the hands down CQC choice. 40-60 CR : Versatile, yet lacks stopping power at the edge of it's range. A good all around weapon. 60-80 ScR : Versatile, yet is difficult to use a very close ranges. Lacks power at the edge of it's range. 80-100 RR : Should be able to out DPS anyone at this range (other guns don't do enough damage). Usless at short range.
Just my 0.02 ISk on the matter.
I am most definitely, maybe, probably, possibly, PERHAPS, Ghost Kaisar.

Until it doesn't insta kill damn near everything at close range no buffs to any aspect of the gun, give the thing a damn ROF and we can start talking about changes to other aspects. I do 126 damage a bullet and the thing fires as fast as I spam R1, why would I ever need a buff?
What's not to love about the scrambler rifle, the thing is a precision weapon and at the same time a shotgun.

1.) This is a double edged sword really. It makes the weapon a bit more situational.
2.) The Ion Pistol will get this feature as well.
3.) Per bullet, yes. However, the Combat Rifle does more damage per burst, and each burst can be considered a single bullet.
4.) Its huge clip is pointless. The overheat function is its real clip size.

Hmm compared to CR the SCR still has higher DPS (~30%) on paper (if you can push the button fast enough), the clipsize is quite comparable to the CR. Thanks to the 3 shot burst there are 18 burst possible with the CR before you have to releoad and ist possible to get 18 shots out of the CR before it overheats (even without teh Amarr Assault bonus).
So in general th CR has more damage per burst (~30%) wheras the SCR can apply the damage faster over a longer Range. I would say both a fairly well balanced again each other (maybe with a small advantage for the CR)
BTW the poor TAC AR gets owned by both weapons...by a good margin. |

Super mega awesome Scrambler Rifle user entering the fray here.
Scramblers are fine - utilize the charged shot feature, with complex damage mods you can one shot even some advanced suits.
If you're spamming away with the SCR then you're gonna have a bad time.
Rules of thumb for SCRs...
1) charge shot then fire 2) if OHK, laugh maniacally at the fool 3) if still alive, spam follow up shots 4) laugh maniacally

There's this thing called "power creep" where basically instead of properly balancing a game, the designers instead just decide to introduce weapons that are better than the ones we already have...cause if they're not better then what's the point in using them?
Having all new dropsuits for 1.8 is going to drastically change the whole game. However, CCP is playing smart by also adjusting the skills on all the dropsuits so that every dropsuit feels new.

I forgot to mention this, but there is one buff the ScR could really use. The pitch of the shots should get higher as it gets closer to overheat, so you have an audio cue as well as the visual one (which is hard to keep an eye on in the bottom corner as you're trying to track a moving target).
This buff would also aid the smart opponent since they would know when you're close to overheating, and could time their attack accordingly. I just think this would add depth/fun to the game.

Thats a beautiful idea, but I'm not sure how much higher the pitch can go. Only my dog would be able to warn me about overheating.

I think the Scram Rifle is fine ( I use Caldari Assault) ..I still love it although I think it can use a slight nerf...heat build-up when charging a shot..kinda unfair that I can just hold the shot and walk around without no drawbacks...I love doing that but it really makes no sense to have no heat build up while holding a charge. |

I actually think the SCR is the worst rifle now (still all rifles go OVER the rest of the weapons) IMO. Being the most expensive one to fit plus having the worst drawbacks while not REALLY out DPS the other ones. The Charged shot is NOT worth the risk of overheating.
Again,i admitted being wrong in Page 3. It seems that even the SMALL buff i proposed would make the SCR way ''too OP'', at least the community thinks this... I'll just have to change my weapon then.... Considering the STANDARD Combat rifle hits harder PER R1 Button Press than MY Proto Scrambler rifle with Proficiency 4 (ONE R1 Button press = 1 STD Combat Rifle burst : 96 damage VS 89 damage per bullet my Viziam SCR with Proficiency 4, WITHOUT EVEN having to worry about overheating...), and that soon NO amarr suit will have the heat buildup reduction bonus, i think i'll take a NON Over-heatable weapon with better fitting cost as a Main weapon then.....

The problem is modded controllers on Ak.0 assaults. Also, the CR is not as good in CQC as the scrambler rifle (reflex scope versus tactical ACOG scope), as well as, in my opinion, better hip fire accuracy with the ScrR. If anything, the scrambler rifle and combat rifle should get a rof nerf so that they would achieve maximum dps at 5-6 presses per second with both, as well as a nerf to the CR, as it is easily abused as well. 5-6 presses is something achievable by most people. This would make the dps on these tactical weapons about fair to their automatic counterparts.

GÖª well the problem doesnt affect me because i use a regular DS3 controller. GÖª The CR is far better than the SCR at CQ. BETTER HIPFIRE, more shots BEFORE needing to reload (or in the case of SCR, overheat) and More DPS unless you use a Charged shot, will you CANT miss or you will loose vs any other weapon due to overheat. GÖª The RoF Nerf does not sound reasonable taking in consideration that as it is, they barely keep up with the Rail Rifle and are on equal ground as the AR. Nerfing them would make them UP.Just look at the TAC and BURST AR. GÖª '' the scrambler rifle and combat rifle should get a rof nerf so that they would achieve maximum dps at 5-6 presses per second with both, as well as a nerf to the CR, as it is easily abused as well. 5-6 presses is something achievable by most people. This would make the dps on these tactical weapons about fair to their automatic counterparts'' NO NO NO NO. The automatic counterparts just press R1 and follow. DPS you calculate is not the same in Math that it is on the battlefield,where MISSING shots is a possibility. If i just spam R1 as fast as i can with both the CR and the SCR i might rist Overheat/spend a clip and not even Kill an enemy,there by more careful aiming is needed. The POTENTIAL damage these weapons have is what makes them valuable. If you nerf their DPS to ''AUTOMATIC'' level, then there will be no real reason to use any variant but the automatic! Same DPS but easier to hit with......

That's a garbage bonus, and CCP should feel bad about thinking it.
Though we will be the best AV suits in the game. Which pleases me ever-so.
(Bar the Sentinels. That goes to the Caldari)Not to mention your combat rifle
I love my Combat Rifles. Yet another piece of perfection straight from Boundless Creations.
Not to mention the MAss Driver and FP that was so OP that had to be nerfed. Mass Drivers were only strong when you were going up against armored dropsuits, carried Flux Grenades, and/or used it in CQC/Indoor areas, which is where it's strength lies. (Also known as niche).
A Mass Driver in wide open areas would almost always get shredded by ARs and SCRs.
Flaylocks were OP, but CCP went way to far.
They are both garbage right now. WTH are you talking about?The fact that as it currently stands, we the Matari have very few nice things in comparison to the Amarrian scum. I bolded the text you wrote, as I know you have vision problems.

And both the AR and the Combat rifle are a LOT more cheaper than the Scrambler R to equip CPU/PG wise.
THE SCR rifles SHOULD be at the same level as the other rifles,but as always, amarr tech has been neglected lately by CCP...
There is a reason why the SCR rifle is almost completley unused nowadays. Huge disadvantages, nothing to make them worth it. AND NOW,the amarr Assault will LOOSE the bonus that increased the DPS output of the weapon!
I propose a 50% REDUCTION IN HEAT BUILDUP , for charged shots.

@ Atiim : thanks for the boldies. Really helped.
But the new Minmatar Assault bonus is garbage. We lose 100 round clip SMGs, 15 Clip SCPs, and 9 Clip Flaylock Pistols, just to get an extra 2.5% bonus to damage mods.That's a garbage bonus, and CCP should feel bad about thinking it.
-JUST An extra 2.5 on damage mods on a 5 High slot suit XD. its not a Bad bonus since it can be applied to both sidearms and light weapons! so its less specialized. Plus, lets compare: Matari: Sidearm clip size changed to : Damage modifier effectiveness. (With 2-3 cx dam mods, prof 5 any weapon will simply destroy everything) So you lost a Very good skill,but gained a good one.
Amarr: 5% Heat buildup on laser weapons reduction changed to : 5% effectivness on Armor repairers. We lost an UNIQUE bonus (no other suit could replicate it) and got the worst bonus there is. OUR bonus is so crappy , that it only gets WORSE when you realize any half brained player will use at MOST 2 cx Armor reps. WE DONT HAVE 5 SLOTS to abuse the ''effectiveness'' of our module, and the difference it makes is 1.25 HP per sec on armor repairers at complex level.
THIS , is a GARBAGE Bonus. Imagine, AMARR LOGIS HAD it , and even then no one use it to reach high armor rep levels...AND the logi has 4 Low slots....imagine how useless it is on the amarr assault Ak.0 with only 3 slots! now imagine how useless it is on bot hthe STD level amarr assault and the ADV level amarr assault (1 and 2 low slots respectively).
Mass Drivers were only strong when you were going up against armored dropsuits, carried Flux Grenades, and/or used it in CQC/Indoor areas, which is where it's strength lies. (Also known as niche). A Mass Driver in wide open areas would almost always get shredded by ARs and SCRs. Flaylocks were OP, but CCP went way to far. They are both garbage right now. -Yes they are and they need a buff. BUT , back to the original point. Mataris dont have it as bad as Amarrians since every time you get something new, is OP into oblivion, so much that needs future nerfs... THIS was my point.
The fact that as it currently stands, we the Matari have very few nice things in comparison to the Amarrian scum. -Might be true.... NOW. Because of NERFS. But as It currently stands. when Mataris get new stuff, its cool new OP stuff and then needs nerf. Amarr gets new crappy stuff. Period... XD

Although the Amarr bonus was the only one that made sense. They should have given all the suits unique likeable bonuses. It would make choosing a suit and play style more rewarding. Now everything is grey. No color.

I am not one for respecs, neither do I care since I have been extremely careful and specific about my SP allocation
But... I skilled into the ScR and the Assault ak.0 the day it came out, why? because the suit and the weapon are two parts to a weapons system. One that costs near 4 mil SP for just the suit and the weapon, I skilled into the ScR because it is my weapon of choice and I skilled into the ak.0 because it was the suit that complimented my weapon.
Now, after 7 patches of me perfecting my chosen role and spending all my SP into maximizing the weapon system that is a Scrambler Rifle on an Amarr Assault suit, they (might) change it.
Yes I realize this might sound biased but I believe this is reasonable grounds for a respec or at least refund.
But you know what CCP? Keep the bonus and I wont complain. Take it away? then well, I guess I'm in for some tough adaptation.

I'm just going off facts; No Respec unless sweeping changes are introduced?
Well they are planning on sweeping the heat sink off my suit :/
On the other hand, with some more practice I might run the ScR on an Amarr Scout, that'd be interesting. What do you think Lea?

SCR is the worst rifle? ... Are you trolling?
The only time I would prefer another rifle would be in very CQC maps where I might use a combat rifle instead.
I'm sorry, but if you're losing 1v1 to rail rifles, unless it's right on the edge of their range, the problem is not the rifle.
The weapon is powerful without the heat bonus. With it, it morphs into an insane death machine that really has few equals. Of course, we -might- be losing the Amarr assault bonus but that isn't set in stone and even if we do the weapon will still be good.

I definitely agree, the ScR will still be powerful especially in the right hands.
But, the ScR is not the issue here; its the Amarr Assault suit thats the real issue. I spent about 2.5 Mil SP on a heatsink for my ScR, and now they might take it away. It's like as if the Minmatar Scout lost its bonus to Knives, it alters the weapon system. Why should I have an Amarr Assault if I can use the ScR just as well or better on another suit? Would that be grounds for a respec?
I say to hell with a respec and just let me keep the reason I sank millions of SP into a particular suit and weapon.

the scrambler rifle is still very powerful, but in the right hands, the SCR is a very hig dps weapon and the CR is similar to that beaacuase of its high ROF and burst mechanic. they are specifaclly meant to fight each other (lore wise) and it is/will loose to a RR or CR sometimes but if your smart and know how to use a SCR then you wont have a problem.
i find them more balanced than what they used to be and i am alright with that, and IMO they are pretty fine at both close and mid-long range

Agree 100%. Effectiveness aside, the role of the Amarr assault is to augment laser weaponry. Most people have specced into it specifically for that reason. By removing the heat bonus, that role is destroyed.
It's really sad to see that the only synergistic weapon/suit combination is going. I wish it was used as a model for other assaults rather than being done away with. That synergy is what I like best about it.

But, what better way to train for an impending loss of heat sink than with a Scout gk.0 and Viziam ScR :D But I can't do more than 2 volleys anymore :( My training with the ScR has made sure I lead all my shots with a charge, I'm going to have to literally change my muscle memory because this play style was built around the heat sink, it is inefficient (heat management wise) to play this way without the assault ak.0
Let me reiterate; After 7 patches of practice and mastery and an investment of about 4 million SP at the very least, I'm going to have to alter my play-style completely. I'm not complaining, just saying it like it is.

Yes, the RR and CR are strong weapons. So is the AR. On paper, the ScR is the best weapon in the game.
If you're losing to RRs and CRs, then I suspect: 1) They're getting the drop on you. 2) You're doing it wrong. |

I guess is fair to say i've been lossing with the SCR using a 204HP scout. (think id didnt say for obvious reasons XD,i still do VERY Good with the Assault Amarr)
But still my point standed. I did great with any other Rifle variant on the same scout. IMO , ( i know many people make due without but...) The heat sink bonus loss on the amarr assault is something the SCR shoull universaly have - 25% Heat buildup to the SCR as a buff , but to not sound too pushy , i decided it would be better to buff it on charge shots only to make people use this instead of the quick R1 spam. Again almost 100% of the people think im nuts. I think its ridiculous to loose the Amarr Assault bonus, the only one thing that made he weapon work for me...
As it is, happens many times, without those 25% Heat sink, i can overheat and NOT drop a MEd Frame with all shots hit....
But whatevs....

Now, after 7 patches of me perfecting my chosen role and spending all my SP into maximizing the weapon system that is a Scrambler Rifle on an Amarr Assault suit, they (might) change it. Yes I realize this might sound biased but I believe this is reasonable grounds for a respec or at least refund. But you know what CCP? Keep the bonus and I wont complain. Take it away? then well, I guess I'm in for some tough adaptation. You and me both, bud...although I may just stick to it, change or not, and hope for the best. I'm still holding out hope, though, that CCP listens to it's loyal Ak.0/SCR or LR users. You hit the nail on the head. Damn a respec as long as you keep the Amarr assault bonus the same. If you change it, well then... I'm just going off facts; No Respec unless sweeping changes are introduced? Well they are planning on sweeping the heat sink off my suit :/ On the other hand, with some more practice I might run the ScR on an Amarr Scout, that'd be interesting. What do you think Lea?
I like my assault's survivability tbh. I may try scout, but only as a novelty. My main is assault or bust.
