We concluded it should be more "rifle-like", and decided that the magazine size should be 16 rounds and overheat at 11 rounds rather than simply having a 11 round magazine. To offset this slight buff, I think the amount of carried ammo should be lower, so i lowered it to 96 rounds from 144. So far the final weapon still largely resemble s a prenerf ScP, but yet is distinct and is more in line with other light weapons.

Same damage, same multiplier. Compared to the old ScP... Pros: Larger Magazine (+5) More carried Ammo (~45 more rounds) More Range (about 200% more, because a rifle with only 30m of range would be silly) Cons: Higher fitting requirements(a lot higher, almost 200% higher) Higher ISK cost (at least twice as expensive) Overheat & Feedback Damage (so that it isnt a spam weapon) Lower RoF & lower DPS (in some cases, the standard ScP had less) A rifle with 30 meters range would be silly good thing my AR has 36 :) Anyways... IDK just something about trying to close distance on some "sniper" and instantly downed in two headshots in extreme quick succession. (Being a Gallente and forced to use ARs this happens a lot) For example using an SCP your at close range so to get those headshots you have to modify your aim while also moving sround, or sneak up behind the enemy sniping with it is pretty difficult since your in the front lines. But with this you can comfortably sit up on a perch and lay down constant headshots. Remember people will abuse anything that will give them a huge advantage while minimizing any risk that can be incurred to them. OK. A 30-40m optimal would be silly for a Scrambler Rifle, not just any rifle. Also, AR optimal is 45m... The lowest I could conceivably imagine it being would be 50m, which would be lower than the Combat Rifle. And a 60m range isn't so large that it could be a "perch weapon".

Lore wise it'll be explained by something along the lines of "the radiation produced by the variants that is so adept at piercing enemy drop suits armor dissipates quickly, so the ability to destroy the sensitive equipment and organs housed in the helmet comes at the cost of drastically reduced range". As far as gameplay goes, the short range would be enough to stop it from being too powerful but still make it a devastating CQC weapon. Like the sort of weapon a cloaky scout would kill for. Just think of how awesome it'd be to cloak to get in position, uncloak and then kill your target with 2-3 headshots and disappear. I don't think we'd want something that can do that to have much longer than a 45-50m range. I don't mind the idea of it being a close quarters weapon. I just think it would feel silly to have this huge long-barreled semiautomatic rifle have an effective range of 45m. Personally, I would prefer a shorter range in exchange for more spare ammo, damage, or something. I just tried to make it more like I imagine a high powered rifle to be.

And I can tell you right now without a doubt that, while you probably can't be OP as hell with it anymore, it's still really good. Also, if the Breach ScR had more charge damage than the regular one, it would be WAY TOO OP. The breach wouldn't charge. It gets a headshot bonus like the ScP instead.
