And I tap the trigger twice to kill you with my CR
And my RR will three-shot you.
And only one of those guns overheats and makes you die.
Where is the problem, again?
And of the top two, the ScR has like 250% PG consumption, and 20% CPU consumption.
Lol at overheat as a balancing factor. You get 20+ shots off before an overheat in a skilled up Amarr assault, enough to kill this guy ten times over. |

You realise all the rifles melt 'anything', right? At least the SCR has an overheat mechanic.
Scr do it better at every range shorter than RR range. That's ******* bullshit and you know it. Think about it, in 1.5/1.6 people realized the SCR was better than AR. At the end of 1.6 more people were using SCR than AR. Then 1.7, the new rifles, we are curious and we use them, but the scr waits in the shadows with its OPness.
The other reason ScR doesn't have more users is it takes a massive SP investment to get the most out of it. Every other rifle (except LR, lol) you just put points into the rifle and, provided you have any medium proto suit, you're basically maxed out. But with ScR you have to max out the rifle and the Amarr Assault to be maxed. Very, very few players have 5 million unallocated SP lying around to do that. |

Scrambler Pistol will mess up a Scrambler Rifle. In the right hands of course. ScR: 800-1100 DPS. ScP: 700-4000 DPS.
Doesn't combat rifle also have DPS around 1000DPS?
They really need to buff the AR and LR so they at least have a chance at their supposed 'ideal range'. |

Very, very few players have 5 million unallocated SP lying around to do that. even without tons of SP its still rediculous you can do massive damage. after the first few games the player learns to manage the over heat. even without amarr frame. i used a minmatar frame and did this back in 1.6 before Scr got their buff in 1.8
I do agree it does too much damage, just saying why you don't see more of them than you do. That 5mil SP path to maxing it certainly put me off specing it. |
