Suicidal to use. Impractical to fit. Inspires much QQ.
Haha, that should be the ScR's description |

EDIT: unless people think the overheat is enough of a balance mechanic.
But a very powerful gun in skilled hands.
I think unless you are using an amarr assault the overheat mechanic works perfectly as a balance. Which is why you train amarr assault I guess if you really want to specialise heavily (IMO) |

But a very powerful gun in skilled hands. It does use the equivalent of 10 normal shots worth of heat, which is just as valuable as ammo for the SCR. More so really, given the massive amount of damage a ScR user has in the magazine and in total, e.g.: Total magazine damage: Duvolle - 2244; Imperial - 3564 Total ammunition damage: Duvolle - 11220; Imperial - 17820 That's even without taking charge shots Especially for non-Amarr assault ScR users, heat management is crucial, but ammo management, not so much.
Unless you have bad aim ^^

Very true, I wonder if they'll being those kind of ammo differences into dust at some point

Speaking of lasers, this weekend we've been running full laser squads which has been much fun. Anyone interested of doing a different weapon squad each weekend should join our public channel: Freek Coalition
Next weekend we're doing Mass Drivers... Everything gets recorded and will be put on youtube :) |

I agree, the mecahanics surrounding the rifle also work especially well. |

CommanderBolt wrote:It just dawned on me that a charged shot of the scrambler does more damage than a sniper shot. It uses a single round of ammunition.
It has a high fire rate, it still smashes armour, works great at range or up close..... why use anything else? And people defend that rifle? LOL
I might have to spec into this OPness
Haha, be wary of the overheat ^^ What you see in the video is a level 5 amarr assault. If you don't use that it overheats a lot mroe. Also I have been using it since it came out so have a bit of a feeling for when ti will overheat. Get it wrong and the overheat leaves you like a fish out of water haha |

When I die fast and I see the "Killed By" screen, I find it not surprising that my quick death was due to the enemy using a Viziam.
There are however a lot of not very accurate scrambler users out there, perhaps making it not seem so powerful :)
