I used it exclusively for two weeks once, kills are just an absolute pain to get with it. Even with two complex damage mods stacked on an Auto SCR, it just feels like it's shooting BB's at enemies. The visual effect of the gun bouncing around everywhere, and the strobe light effect of the shots do not help this weapon either.
I by far prefer the semi auto SCR over the auto SCR any day.
I happen to agree a lot with you on those points after using it against proto fittings it does not feel like a proto weapon even with prof 4 and 3 complex damage mods, perhaps it is just me. However, in a team with combat rifles, MD's, HMG's, lasers and other SCR's it would be useful to take out shields fast and let the others finish off the armour fast.

Anyways, we were perfectly balanced, as she is also Gallente, and I'm Caldari, so Armor AND shield tanking.
They got so mad they dropped an OB on US, because we killed them ALL. I got 25 kills that match.
And this happened TONIGHT. Apparently, Night is the only one who gets the point. Weapons don't have to kill.
It's true, especially when used in a coordinated squad support can be as important in many ways |

Especially with ADV vs STD, you'd think the ADV would gain more kills |

Also the very next day scrambler rifles were introduced I made a post about assault versions recoil which still seems like overkill. It feels like I imagine Parkinson's to be honest.
Good weapon but... something is off.
I too feel something is off, recoil or something else... can't quite put my finger on it. |

I tend to aim more for getting Assists instead of kills. 30 or 40 assists is just a lot of fun. Especially if I'm walking my Heavy, tearing down shields so he can conserve ammo wrecking their armor is awesome.
Yep, going back to my CRD now, so long RR.
Awesome, it'll be nice to see more variety out there ^^ |

KING CHECKMATE wrote:The +20% bonus to shields BUT -20% to armor is what makes it suck. The Regular SCR RIFLE can get around this, with its charged shot. but hte ASCR cant, with Duvolle plus damage, it takes shields down insanley fast, but it fails to actually KILL something. Heavies and armored tankers specially. I've found myself looking entirely for Scouts and Cal Assault while using this piece of @$^@ of a weapon.
haha yeah, I think it is best suited to a support role at this stage |

true the finishing aspect certainly makes sense |

For suppressive fire, it's a great weapon, thanks to the bonus against shields, the good range and the big magazine. Even the (for kills rather interfering) kick can sometimes help in this regard, if your goal is to just scare your enemies into cover, so you can revive someone, or give others an opportunity to advance. And while the short TTK sadly made this tactic a lot less important, it still has its uses. The mentioned big magazine and overall amount of ammo also helps if you don't have a sidearm to switch to, and/or don't want to waste all your precious hives just for yourself.
I think suppressive fire and taking down shields seems to be the general consensus for the best use for the Assault ScR. |
