Unholy HateGore F.T.U. IMMORTAL REGIME 0	Posted - 2014.01.26 15:20:00 - [1] - Quote I have recently gotten my scrambler rifle to lvl 5 proto. I am now working on proficiency. I hear there will be a nerf coming. Does anyone know how bad of a nerf it will be. I love that rifle and took time and energy to get it to where it is. Finally got complex Dam Mod as well. It is going to suck if all my time and effort was wasted due to a rifle being usless due to nerfing. Can some one give me some info?
Kierkegaard Soren Forsaken Immortals Top Men. 141	Posted - 2014.01.26 15:28:00 - [2] - Quote The nerf will be so hard that when you equip your scram it will simply melt in your hands and strip all the gold op plating from your armour. In all seriousness though, I'm not entirely sure. If the nerf is based off of the communities feedback/incessant whining, then expect your hip fire accuracy to be reduced; the current popular opinion is that it's too good in close quarters combat considering how strong it is at all other ranges. I haven't heard anything official from the Devs however, and I do like to keep an eye on the forums. Dedicated Commando. "He who can destroy a thing, controls a thing." -Paul Atreides.
Scheneighnay McBob Learning Coalition College 3726	Posted - 2014.01.26 15:30:00 - [3] - Quote Never heard of any form of nerf to it. Nerfs have never made a weapon useless, save swarm launchers. Even laser rifles are just overshadowed by rail rifles. I am your scan error.

ResistanceGTA Valor Tactical Operations Immortal Coalition of New-Eden 111	Posted - 2014.01.26 15:33:00 - [9] - Quote I believe the big nerf is in the form of the Amarr Assault losing the heat buildup reduction as you level it up. Other nerfs, haven't heard much, what with the Rail Rifle existing...

Other nerfs, haven't heard much, what with the Rail Rifle existing... Yup ^ This is essentially the nerf, it removes the main 'problem' with the weapon. Otherwise the Rail Rifle seems to be nastier and much more popular than the ScR right now, so you should be fine.

Not too often, although that said, the infamous MLT rail isn't too successful in that respect either. The problem IMO is that it takes two guys to do it efficiently thanks to hardeners and the short locking range. Happily printing ISK with permahardeners and MLT blasters.

Fizzer94 L.O.T.I.S. D.E.F.I.A.N.C.E 1687	Posted - 2014.01.26 16:09:00 - [18] - Quote The only nerf it needs is its RoF dropped to reasonably 'human' levels. From 705 to 570. 11.75 rounds per second to 9.5 rounds per second. This would satisfy the Shield Brigades thirst for a nerf, and make the use of modded controllers less useful with the weapon.

Yes the Nyain San are getting a bit annoying. Are they too afraid to run and gun???? Really, how many damn tanks do you REALLY need on the field. Def not fair. Tanks squads against nerfed foot soldiers. You need half a team going AV to control them and that never happens. Only see 1 to 2 people even attempting AV attacks.
TheD1CK Dead Man's Game 440	Posted - 2014.01.26 18:09:00 - [23] - Quote there has been no talk of a scrambler nerf... But you should expect one seen as it's the most OP weapon in game (close to RR) but the RR hits hard and you know what you get..... The Scrambler fitted with prof. and mods is a joke..... no AR should hit that hard Minmatar Demolitions Specialist Plasma Cannon Pro

To be tootally honest the CR and SCR are pretty close in combat effectiveness...the CR is just slightly more popular...the RR is well its the RR...

I used to use the scram quite a lot before the CR came out and I'd struggle to topple a heavy before my gun melted the hand off of my arm a fps that was before the patch fixed HMG's and turned heavies into CQC powerhouses. Charged or not, a scram can't blitz a heavy from within 20m, it has to cool down before it can finish him off. And at that range, a heavy will obliterate you. Now, the CR on the other hand comes close, providing you have a swift trigger finger. The secret is in the armour penetration bonus that the scram simply doesn't have. Anyway, I prefer to have my weapons fixed rather than nerfed into uselessness, but well see. I think the scram is in a decent place, and other lights need to be pulled up to scratch.

I think the scram rifle is fine for the most part it just really needs a slight heat build up as you charge it...and maybe a small pause after the charged shot like the basic scram rifle has but for some reason adv and proto dont have

Well, they'll get nerfed as soon as new OP rifles are in the pipe and the Aurum draw of the current OP rifles wanes. Free, on-demand Respecs. Because it doesn't matter and no one should care. Matchmaking by KDR proximity. :)
