It would appear as if they have never heard of these magical things called "Damage Modifiers," or the almighty "Proficiency Skill." If I can have a weapon that can 1-2 shot any shield tanked suit in the game, then I want a weapon that can 1-2 shot any armor tanker as well. Fair is fair right? Buff Breach Mass driver direct damage to 300/400/500HP and splash damage to 250/350/450HP (STD/ADV/PRO) Increase Max Ammo count to 36. Balance.
That'd be fine, if the SCR actually did 1-2 shot any shield tanked suit in the game.
But it doesn't.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.

It's 3am where I am currently, so I'm not in the mood for doing actually math. Could you tell me how much HP of damage a Prof. V, 3x Complex Damage Modded Vizam SCR headshot does? Thanks in advance.
Oh yes, let's pick the most damaging shot we could possibly ever have. The answer is 520, but that's hardly indicative of the weapon's balance as a whole as those are in absolutely perfect conditions. Raw is lower, and it's down to 345 without the headshot.

Thanks. Sorry to be a bother, but could you tell me how many follow up shots you could make with an Assault ak.0 after the charge? That depends on your trigger speed.
As it happens, it's my personal belief that the Amarr assault is a major cause of the OP complaints for the SCR, as it fairly effectively negates the balancing mechanic for the SCR - overheat.

I can't really comment on the Amarr Assault bonus as I don't use Amarr suits, but thanks for the info.
The answer for a non-Amarr assault tends to vary between 5 and 7, with 7 being the slower trigger finger. I've not actually measured it for an Amarr assault but I think it may well exceed 10.
