It has had the SMALLEST damage reduction (%) out of all the rifles .. how on earth you can complain about that is beyond me ..;
Oh so your proficiency has been changed so you will find it harder to kill armor suit s.. well .. you get 120% v shields and eat them for breakfast .. why should you be super strong v shields AND super strong v armor ?
I've just read some nonsense from True Adamance complaining about having the 2nd longest range behind the RR as well as a post from Aisha saying how weak the SCR is going to be in 1.8 ...
Honestly it's ridiculous .. how can you complain after getting the smallest nerf ?
I haven't complained about the RR being nerfed I just feared it'd be overnerfed and the SCR would be left alone but I'm glad the SCR has been nerfed as well as the other rifles and i'm interested to see what the changes are like in 1.8.
They are moaning because they are so used to the insanely high burst DPS scrubler rifle, and now it might not be so OP.
The charged shot scrambler rifle has needed a rate of fire reduction since for ever. Remember the TAC rifle? The scrambler rifle has the same damage per shot, similar range, a huge increase on magazine size. Amazing ammo effeciency (Better than almost any other weapon) and a charge shot mechanic. All while keeping its OP rate of fire.
Its only downside is the heat mechanic which is largely mitigated on an Amarr assault suit. It has been plagued with bugs that let the overheat mechanic be completely nullified in the past as certainly needs a nerf.
The TAC AR needs a small rate of fire buff, say 450-500 rpm give or take, and a modest magazine increase.
The scrambler just needs a rate of fire decrease to the same level. 450-500 rpm I think.
I dont mind anything about that rifle, other than it can be absolutely spam fired like a machine gun and it DOES DO very similar / more burst DPS than pretty much any other infantry weapon in the game.
It actually makes the shotgun look like a stupid choice in close quarters as it probably does way more dps, and you still have the ability to fire at range.
(In all honesty most rifles are better than the shotgun for 50%+ of CQC work and certainly ALL have the added benefit of extra range but I guess that is a separate issue)

This is just amusing, some people's blind fury for the scrambler.
Not at all. I propose rational thought out changes.
The rate of fire is clearly a source of its hatred. Are you telling me that you do not think the scrambler should have a reduced rate of fire? (I'm talking a reasonable one, not nerfed into the ground like other weapons have been)
