Fizzer94 L.O.T.I.S. D.E.F.I.A.N.C.E 1911	Posted - 2014.02.05 09:29:00 - [31] - Quote I think the ScR is almost perfectly balanced. The only thing I think is wrong is that its RoF is a bit too high, and it welcomes the use of modded controllers a bit too much. I think that a reduction from 705 RpM(11.75/s) to 570 RpM(9.5/s) would be perfect. This number is perfect because it isn't slow enough that oversampling will be an issue, and it isn't so fast that modded controllers would be nearly as abusable as they are right now.

Oh well yeah...you would have died from the charged shot. Though it does take a little something special to hit a running scout at range. I was 5 meters away, behind him when he turned around shot me. He was Caladari, using a advanced SCR.

But the ScR is a finicky weapon for me to offer an opinion. While 85% of the time I have no problem with it, 15% of the time I get so frustrated cause it rips to me pieces. Which leads me to believe there are 85% of people who use it and are mediocre, and 15% who use it that make that weapon one of the best in the game. I am not about to say OP at all. It is the player that makes that weapon OP. But damn, that weapon in the right hands is BEASTMODE. Incorrect use of decimate. Decimate is when you destroy a tenth of something. A shotgun should OBLITERATE, utterly destroy, and paint the walls with scout blood. Why it takes more than one shot to kill him (assuming he doesn't run plates like a good scout) is beyond me. That's the historic(defunct) definition. Decimate means to greatly reduce or destroy a large part of. 32db Mad Bomber.

Just send me a message with your times and I will make time for you. Trust me...once you pick it up and learn how to use it correctly and to YOUR full advantage, you won't want to put it down.

You get 20+ shots off before an overheat in a skilled up Amarr assault, enough to kill this guy ten times over. It's less about HOW many shots you can fire at an enemy and MORE about how you "place" those shots instead. Anyone, ANYONE can spam their trigger finger but the good users will make EVERY shot count. Spammers only make their gun overheat faster. No skill in that tbh. While having the heat bonus is a welcomed treat to us SCR users, it does by no means make the gun itself OP. Imo, the user and his skill with it make the gun OP. Say what you want about it, but fact is fact: NO other gun, aside from the LR, has a debillatating effect to its owner as much as the SCR. True, the SCR is the best 1v1 rifle out there and for its weaknessess, it should very well be...but it is, by no means, OP. People seem to forget about the older threads hailing the gun itself as the "first and only balanced gun in the game" during its introduction. Even when they changed the bonus to the heat reduction (it was a reduction in charge shot time per level), it was still praised as such. Only the emergence of the people who stuck with it and got good at it did all of those "SCR needs a nerf" threads begin to pop up. PurificationGäó It's what I do. Amarr Victor

In the time it takes to charge, another rifle could already kill me, but its such a perfect feature for when you're behind cover or when the enemy doesn't notice you. I love my Templaaaarrrrrrrr scrambler rifle. I only charge it up when people don't see me. Other times I just spam the trigger till they die, I must admit it's satisfying when I kill heavies before I overheat Carving Hearts in People's Backs, One Day At A Time ~ Nova Knives

You cannot take a heavy without overheating. Its literally not possible. Sooo your arguement is what again? Scr is the most balanced rifle in this game. The only issue it has, is the RoF, and that's only because of modded controller scrubs..

Scrambler rifles definitely don't do group targeting better than other rifles. It's great for one on ones, but you get into groups and you just can't sustain the damage very long because you're either overheated or waiting to cool down. One of the main reasons I switched over to assault scrambler rifle awhile ago. I love the normal ones much more, but my playstyle tends to come across lots of groups and the normal scrambler just can't handle it and I already put so many points into it. Any other rifle is far better in these situations. ARC Commander CPM Info and Q&A - Status: Open

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.

They really need to buff the AR and LR so they at least have a chance at their supposed 'ideal range'. Combat rifle DPS is 1000 DPS only in theory. when you add in the burst delay the DPS is much lower. On top of that it has the most recoil, highest dispersion and highest damage fall off of all the assault rifles. It is balanced with the galente AR because the galente AR is fully-automatic, has no recoil, has very little to nill disersion and has reduced damage fall off (the RR has the best damage fall of profile). so, galente AR = Combat Rifle if you buff one you gotta buff the other. The CR works in its intended range, the minmatar are close range fighters. The Galente Ar works in its intended range too which is close range. the galente AR and CR are balanced against each other. you may feel the galente AR doesn't work inclose range because of how Scr and RR work. the problem is that RR and Scr are too good in close range. Nerfing Scr and RR hip fire accuracy (increasing the dispersion by 25% or more) will make the galente AR great in CQC. Sou o Defendeiro dos derrubados_Pronto saberá justiça
