Personal I think the Scrambler rifle requires the most amount of in-game skill to use out of the rifle types. Used incorrectly or in unskilled hands it can easily become the reason you died. It should be the most powerful - but not the most versatile rifle type.
CCP has focused a lot on rifle types. It would be nice to see them start upgrading some of the other weapon types that are really starting to lag behind. |

I agree partially. I just think it needs a new scope like all the rifles. It's 20,000 years in the future and the best they can cone up with is a dot sight? Ccp please. |

having some weapon custom abilities is not asking to much! - although there is so much still missing... eep
But I would simple like to be able to customize which scope type I want - possibly after training in the skills to do so.. what ever. |

With the current TTK of combat and rail rifles the viziam is a death wish... Used correctly its ok but a sneaky rail rifle will reduce you to a new clone in about 2.3 seconds. Idk what it is but the carthum is just.... Shudder.... Underpowered.

Spamming R1 doesn't take any skill lol
I've had people shoot at me and miss 9 out of 10 shots but because they've fired so many, some of them are bound to hit .. it's like your own personal laser show
Lets face it none of the rifles take skill aside from the Laser Rifle .. it has such a small optimum range you really have to play well to kill someone

It takes the most skill to use "Correctly".
What they need to change is how insanely powerful the charge+spam is. That crap takes NO SKILL and will still destroy any suit you come across.

What kills it for me is they seem so lackadaisical. No detail, just barren boring scopes. I love the smg pop up sites and the camera sight on the sniper rifle. (though I'm against the low zoom on Snipers scopes) they just feel like there was more thought put into them. |

Anyone can spam R1 and get a lucky kill with it, but you would be better off just using an AR of RR in that case. The ScR only truly shines in the hands of someone who knows their way around the weapon. Spamming R1 isn't a consistent way to operate it.

Aim? By the time a scrambler rifle user can click multiple times the assault rail rifle user has poured 900 dmg in 2 seconds into him... Come on you have to admit. The dmg done in a few seconds with the rail rifle is more.. Burst dmg is high with scrambler but its increasingly too much of a duck and run weapon, i never use it when I can pull out a Sb-39 or boundless and just melt heavys...
Im not biased i have proto scrambler and both adv rail rifles and combat rifles.. I use the CR and RR 300x more than the scrambler

if I find a proficient ScR user I just run and look for a nice CR user to play with (much safer for my shields)

Both the Carthum and the Viziam SCR make quick work of Armored suits, though i am having fun right now with the CR, i am starting to miss my (S)erial (C)reaming (R)ifle the kill Reload, kill reload routine gets old fast with the rapid expendure of rounds.
But there nothing like melting a Gallogi with 1k EHP armed with a RR, while you have to do a 180 degree turn, charge, headshot followed up with a quick volley while my suit has 650 ehp.
I do a little "oh yeah, B*tch" right after.

I actually like the little dot, it really helps the precision since the SCR is a precision weapon.

Which I agree with. However, a CR requires the same thing except if you suck at tracking an enemy your whole burst wont register.
Anyway, without going into it too much, ScR is the most OP AR still, followed by the RR, then the CR, and finally the AR, but all of them are very low-difficulty weapons compared to most other weapons in the game. So congrat's OP, you got your wish. At least until 1.8.

Its supposed to be 80% effective against armor but with prof 5 and 2 damage mods it still does 87 damage a shot to armor, it needs a serious damage reduction. 1 charge shot to take out all of the shields of ANY SUIT (except cal heavy next build) then a couple of single shots to finish the armor of any non proto heavy.
