We will see, Im usually one for theory crafting, like I did with shield tanks getting 20, 000 Pseudo HP from stacked hardners, but this time I'm happy to wait for now. We will just see if the Shotguns, Plcs, FG, need a buff for 1.9.
I'd say it still looks likely.

Thing is, armor buffers > shield buffers. This means RR will uber alles, since it get a more balanced damage profile vs shield/armor buffers. Also no overheat.
ScR still get that headshot multiplier, so the best ScR users wont be as much affected.
Drop it like its hat.

Head shots are fine, but are you telling me I actually need to be more handicapped and rely on head shots to take down my enemies reliably?
I already make use of the single shot weapon. It is already outclassed by a ranged rifle, and medium range rifle crossing its optimal and effectively all to easily.
It already suffers against high armour targets..... I will never be able to take down a heavy alone, not even if I ambush them now.
And I deal with overheat.
Other rifles have full auto, no over heat, relatively consistent DPS and alpha, similar magazine sizes, etc.......
I honestly was in a good place about dust weapons balance last build, sure rifles needed some small tweaks but I though their functionality was fine, and the shorted TTK was growing one me.

News flash, its meant to be tough to kill a Armour tanker with a Shield based weapon. Take this, [hands over M2091 Assault Submachine Gun], with profciency this gets 135% damage bonus to armour, still relatively effective at longer ranges. Also have this [hands over M8 Packed Locus Grenade] this is also very useful, tey cooking it a little first, you have time to nowadays.
Welcome to diversity, welcome to the real DUST 514.

Sorry thought you thought thats what it currently is in 1.8. In 1.8 a Scrambler with Prof 5 will do 135% to Shields and 80% to armour, meanwhile a Combat with lrof 5 will 135% to armour and 80% to shields.
I personally think that balanced.

No but shields have do have incredibly fast regen, 5secs to 100% on base regen alone. Add a proto energizer for an extra 80% plus regs in the lows for ridiculously low delays and you won't even bother with Shield Extenders.
Thats why its balanced, againat a shield tanker your gonna have considerably less time to hit them. Also in 1.7 CR : 95% S 135% A ScR: 135% 95% A
Thats what it currently is, all there doing is loppng 15% of the resistant tank type. Finally this is with Prof 5, which is very expensive.

Like ive said all of 1.6 There is no point of fast regen is your tank goes down in less than a second
Btw, this is tanks all over again Just cuz its expensive doesnt mean you get to auto win In 1.8 scr is auto win vs shield user, they stand 0 chance |

There is plenty of point, this supposed to be the difference between tank types, Armour is all well and good having high EHP but unless you get some heals all thosd armour becomes more of a curse than a blessing. Also Combat Rifles absolutely shred armour, almost as efficently as the Scrambler does shields, maybe better infact.
We can't expect Shields and Armour to have similar tanking values, they are meant to be different playstyles. However have you tried dual-tanking? Its the best of both worlds, even though my Minnie has less EHP than frontline fits, its dual-tanking nature suits my style best.

They do that anyway! Here look at this [Hands over Combat Rifle] this will have an unbelievably tough time killing Shields and this [Hands over Mass Driver] absolutely useless against caldari, like really pointless.

No but shields have do have incredibly fast regen, 5secs to 100% on base regen alone. Add a proto energizer for an extra 80% plus regs in the lows for ridiculously low delays and you won't even bother with Shield Extenders.

Like ive said all of 1.6 There is no point of fast regen is your tank goes down in less than a second Btw, this is tanks all over again Just cuz its expensive doesnt mean you get to auto win In 1.8 scr is auto win vs shield user, they stand 0 chance There is plenty of point, this supposed to be the difference between tank types, Armour is all well and good having high EHP but unless you get some heals all thosd armour becomes more of a curse than a blessing. Also Combat Rifles absolutely shred armour, almost as efficently as the Scrambler does shields, maybe better infact. We can't expect Shields and Armour to have similar tanking values, they are meant to be different playstyles. However have you tried dual-tanking? Its the best of both worlds, even though my Minnie has less EHP than frontline fits, its dual-tanking nature suits my style best. I shouldnt have to dual tank to properly shield tank And 4 sh8tting my snields is overpowered, no one will use shields in 1.8 if not a heavy because the scr will be op and shield tankers rr wont so enough dps to fight back, its just unfair
Yet a guy at the beginning of thread was complaing because the CR will have a higher dps and melt armour. It like somethings are OP to some things and UP to others, like I said to the other guy, if your concerns are everyone will armour tank, then evedyone will use CR and Mass Drivers, which will make shield tanking viable because there will be less Scrambler Rifles on the field.
if your concerns are that everyone will shield tank then everyone will use the Scrambler Rifle and flux grenades, which will make armour tanking viable because there will be less CRs on the field.
The only thing Shields need for balance are some hybrid modules, otherwise I suggest you try a different tank type because you obviously don't like having low EHP values and don't attribute enough value to the unbelievably fast regen. Balance is not when it takes 5secs to kill either tank type, balane is when the benifits of 1 don't greatly outweigh the benifits of the other.
Hybrid Modules and Some form of effect to shields from a rep tool will solve this. Prehaps removing the delay on a shield tank suit while being repped.

Has it occurred to you that prehaps the reason we aren't convinced fast regen is pointless is because fast regen isn't pointless. If I have 300 shields and 180 Armour, Against a guy with 180 Shields amd 500 Armour.
If I win with 0 Shields and 170 Armour , 3 secs later I can be at 300 Shields and 180 Armour ( with a single complex repper) If he wins with 0 Shields and 170 Armour, 3 Secs later he can be at50 Shields 180 Armour, (with a single complex repper) That other guy is now a dead man walking, his armour plates are currently no purpose but to slow him down. Where as me with 300 Shields can get through that shields again and again and again.
Whine as much as you like, but you clearly do not understand the positives and negatives of shields, I suggest you try armour. If we get a respec I would seriously suggest going gallante, leave shield tanking to those that appericate it.
Tl:dr
If shields have the same EHP values as Armour they would be overpowered. Shields are HIT and RUN, treat them as such.

Things melt just fine under a STD scrambler right now, and I only have militia BPO extenders in my high slots for that fit.
The only thing the prof change is going to affect is making you think about balancing out your sources of damage. If you rely on only laser weaponry of course you are going to have a hard time with armor, which seems fair as you'll be able to melt shields in seconds.
Bring a bolt pistol, or any of the other sidearms besides the scrambler to finish off weakened targets.
Quick wall o' text for any newbies who aren't sure what I mean. Feel free to skip this part.
All weapons in dust have a damage profile based on the race that manufactured them. Energy weapons deal 120% damage to shields, and 80% to armor (120/80)
kinetic have a slight bit of trouble with shields but chew through armor (95/110)
Rail weapons are meant to wreck armor, but shields are an issue (90/110)
plasma weapons are pretty much the polar opposite at (110/90)
Up until 1.8 proficiency skills and damage mods added enough base damage to make the slight loss in efficacy rather easy to overlook. All that is going to be changing. Now we have to compensate for the damage profile of our main weapon by picking the correct sidearm or grenade to fill the gap.
An energy weapon user would be well suited to bring an SMG or one of the new rail based sidearms. Role players are just going to have to realize that they are gimping themselves, and have no one else to blame. (sorry, True.) Energy weapons are going to have a bit more trouble finishing off their targets, and so they must rely on armor eating sidearms or locus grenades a bit more.
A plasma weapon enthusiast will have less trouble with armor, but it would suit you well to keep the above paragraph in mind.
Rail and kinetic weapons will have issues punching through shields. The best fix for that would be the flux grenade. The flux strips shields off and makes it easy to wipe away shield tankers.
The choice of sidearm is a little less of an issue for anti-armor weapons because in practice if you are switching to your sidearm you've probably weakened them enough that you'll want a weapon to finish off their armor anyway. In theory you could carry a scrambler pistol as a side arm in case you came up against a shield tanked suit, weaken it with a sidearm and then finish it off with ease. That method might be useful when TTK is raised and damage mods/prof skills are tweaked.
Balls.
That is all.

ScR still get that headshot multiplier, so the best ScR users wont be as much affected. Head shots are fine, but are you telling me I actually need to be more handicapped and rely on head shots to take down my enemies reliably? I already make use of the single shot weapon. It is already outclassed by a ranged rifle, and medium range rifle crossing its optimal and effectively all to easily. It already suffers against high armour targets..... I will never be able to take down a heavy alone, not even if I ambush them now. And I deal with overheat. Other rifles have full auto, no over heat, relatively consistent DPS and alpha, similar magazine sizes, etc....... I honestly was in a good place about dust weapons balance last build, sure rifles needed some small tweaks but I though their functionality was fine, and the shorted TTK was growing one me. Agreed.

Perhaps that was the case..... would RoF and reload time tweaks have made that fire arm more balanced?

Well if you don't want to feel gimped by going to more balanced environment you could take a break, when you come back although it'll feel different it will be easier to adjust.
The thing is are you happy the CR is no weak against shields? That my Mass Driver is practically pointless withojt a Shield Breaker? If you play with a varied squad of mercs you wont have to, you get your mate with a CR to deal with it, you know teamwork.
Even against a gallante with minimal shie2ldsmits gonna be more efficient to tag-team and that's the point. It puts and end to one gun being better than the rest.
Because that CR is severely **** against shields!

It answers a question, not the ones I posed to you about CR and Mass Driver. I understand what PIE do, however now might be the time to get some matari slaves, if you wanna look at the crux of the matter the gallanteans will effectively destroy you, they are your counter, just be glad you are only against the Minmatar in FW.
But you are still avoiding the crux of the matter, why should the Scrambler (a shield based weapon) be profecient against armour yet the Combat Rifle (an armour based weapon) not be allowed to be profecient against shields?

Small tweaks would have made the ScR balanced........ I almost wish we would stay with the current model of proficiency and skills and only tweak it slightly...... Whelp I hope we get a respect, I'm certainly pulling all of my points out of Amarr Dropsuits and weapons ands stock piling them for the HAV. Nice problems there, I find it funny how I have no problems killing armor tanks with my Templar Scrambler Rifle that I have no skillpoints into. It is actually better than my exile which I have over 2 million skillpoints into. How is that?
