Spectral Clone Dust2Dust. Top Men. 2004	Posted - 2014.03.31 15:57:00 - [1] - Quote I have collected SP to spec into a good pistol sidearm (anti shield dmg). The ScP is obviously good, so I'm asking you: Spec ScP, or wait for Ion to be buffed? We all know it can take more than 8 patches for a gallente weapon to be fixed (plasma cannon). Drop it like its hat. I´m a fat scout. Do you even lift bro?

I might get Ion to lvl 1 actually. Then I can test it some more (Im out of AUR pistols). But Yeah, might be better to put those SP into ScP proficiency or something. Drop it like its hat.

Scheneighnay McBob Endless Hatred Ishuk-Raata Enforcement Directive 4586	Posted - 2014.03.31 16:10:00 - [6] - Quote It's decent now, should be better later. I'm from the weird side of the internet
Crimson ShieId Psygod9 D.E.F.I.A.N.C.E 309	Posted - 2014.03.31 16:10:00 - [7] - Quote Depends on what you like, really. The scrambler pistol right now is in a good spot, even if the ROF got nerfed to ****. It's the .357 or .45 in the fight while the Ion Pistol is the 9mm. I personally think the Ion Pistol is a lot of fun to use and it feels dreamy, but unless it gets a massive buff, it's complete crap when compared to the scrambler pistol in all categories except for a tiny ROF difference. You should go with what you like, not what's being buffed and nerfed. Get to lv3 in both and see what you think from there. Nova Knives are OP! Nerf em before you lose all your proto suits!

For the long term, it does in fact have a more balanced dmg profile. :) I already have my trusty SMG to fall back on (and use together with PLC) Drop it like its hat. I´m a fat scout.

thomas mak 67	Posted - 2014.03.31 16:13:00 - [9] - Quote One thing I know about them is they one shot scouts Give me back my working ADS Give me back ml skill-needed tank battles Give me back those things you showed us before
TechMechMeds SWAMPERIUM 2926	Posted - 2014.03.31 16:14:00 - [10] - Quote Scp is now alpha damage if you can aim, ion pistol has now replaced the ROF spam of the scp with a slight reduction in damage, the charge shot overheats right away after one shot. I'd go ion for quick DPS with a decent clip size and......... If you know what a telefrag match is, then I love you. Dust for over a year, gaming for over 18 and counting.

RendonaSix In Aliena Amarr Legionem 64	Posted - 2014.03.31 16:15:00 - [11] - Quote The scp if you are skilful and not a terrorist scumbag, the swag of all Amarr weapons deserves fresh blood. "For those who have seen the light, repentance you shall find, for within the heart of battle, scum you shall grind"
Cody Sietz Bullet Cluster Lokun Listamenn 2919	Posted - 2014.03.31 16:15:00 - [12] - Quote The Ion pistol is usable and has low PG consumption. Invest in sharpshooter and don't ADS and you will find it useful. Not the best finishing weapon, but it does the job. It may also get a small RoF bonus as well. "I do agree with you there though. shudders" -Arkena Wyrnspire

Everything is of course in relation to other weapons. The ScP? Nope. Not only do you get three variations to choose from (Technically four, but who uses standard anymore? ) The Magsec is good, as is the SMG, but neither of these weapons can actually outdo the Scrambler pistol in DPS. Plus, you've got the headshot multiplier on the pistols that can one shot most lower level suits and all but the brick tanked scouts. The Ion Pistol now would be more of a weapon you'd get for fun, out of the group, it's the most outclassed, with the only real advantage being... well, the way it feels. It just feels... right. Like a warm spring day spent watching the clouds. Nova Knives are OP! Nerf em before you lose all your proto suits!

Its also rather satisfying when you kill someone with it. xSivartx is my Heavy. There are many like him, but he is my own... So, other Logi's back off, those are my Warpoints!
Spectral Clone Dust2Dust. Top Men. 2004	Posted - 2014.03.31 18:52:00 - [17] - Quote I now took the ScP to level 4! Booyah. It complements my ACR very well. Drop it like its hat. I´m a fat scout. Do you even lift bro?
