I need a break from Dust! I'll just go hop on the forums... I need a break from the forums! I'll just go hop on Dust...
Minmatar Mercenary 9292 Science For Death 403	Posted - 2014.01.25 05:23:00 - [7] - Quote I agree with Ghost Kaiser here lorhak, charge+spam will basically destroy the anus of anything it looks upon, i also wouldn't call it the hardest rifle to use either but i suppose ive used it so long i just like the way it handles at all ranges.
I-Shayz-I I-----I 2077	Posted - 2014.01.25 05:28:00 - [8] - Quote Hmmm... I only spam the scrambler rifle, maybe I need to use the charge shot some more. like, I can fire 20 rounds in the span of 2-3 seconds, but for some reason charging a shot works better.

Reread our posts did we say anything about how the weapon is supposed to be used used? You are heavily implying that my using it in this manner is incorrect somehow. And for what it's worth, heat DOES build up while it's charging. The charge+spam combo is actually the entire reason the ScR is inherently more skilful than other weapons - while it blitzes 1v1s, effectively using that combination in multiple combats takes practice in a way that other rifles tend not to. Because they don't punish you for missing in at all the same way. Happily printing ISK with permahardeners and MLT blasters. Just let me get a couple mil more before nerf, CCP!

Well you do have a modded pad so it's hardly surprising PS No one can press R1 20 times in 2/3 seconds without modding their pad and you just emphasised why the SCR needs a ROF cap

It's easy; go work on your trigger finger. My ScR overheats after just over 2s, if I'm spamming I can get about 18 shots. I do this regularly. Unfortunately my gungame isn't good enough to maximise the applied DPS... When I'm trying to see how fast I can fire, just spamming he trigger without a target, I can get 21 shots before overheat.

Well you do have a modded pad so it's hardly surprising PS No one can press R1 20 times in 2/3 seconds without modding their pad and you just emphasised why the SCR needs a ROF cap That's only 6.66 to 10 shots per second. The average RoF that most people are capable of is about 6-7 shots per second. No modded hardware required. Some people are capable of 11 shots per second even. Just because *you* can't do something, doesn't mean it's not possible. Yours Truly, Reginald Fizzer94 Delafontaine III, Esquire

If I was implying anything is wrong that would be the fact that you could you could walk around all match with a charged ScR and heat WILL NOT increase until it is actually fired at which point it then pegs at ~65% mark.
