Soldier Sorajord Subsonic Synthesis RISE of LEGION 170	Posted - 2014.04.03 22:06:00 - [1] - Quote Does it have the same multiplier for headshots that ScP has? Like 400% Also, Does it overheat with a fully charged shot to where you can't shoot for a while like ScR's work? Finally, Is it any good or is it just a piece of junk?

No, but it should to a lesser extent. (Please, Devs?) 2. Yes. One charge shot leaves you defenseless long enough to get destroyed by almost anyone. 3. It's junk. Except in the hands of a chosen few who somehow make it work despite how god-awful it is.
Spademan the unholy legion of darkstar DARKSTAR ARMY 1112	Posted - 2014.04.03 22:09:00 - [3] - Quote Nope, it has the standard headshot damage. Yup, a single charge shot overheats and seizes the weapon, however, it does not damage the user. Personally, I love it, though the general consensus seems to be that it's rubbish. I am part shovel, part man, full scout, and a little bit special. Official Time Lord of the Scout Community

It should have headshot multiplier. It'd be fun if all pistols had that 400% multiplier. Insta kill in three- four shots! ;) Click Here to set up a Character that will get an AR, SMG, and a Caldari BPO
Geo MERCEDES Terrestrial Suppression Force Lokun Listamenn 22	Posted - 2014.04.03 22:11:00 - [5] - Quote A note about the ion pistol: Never charge it. (That is, unless you are truly desperate and want to see what a roll of the dice gets you) Other than that, it's a neat little weapon. 39916800
Patrick57 Amarr Empire 6638	Posted - 2014.04.03 22:12:00 - [6] - Quote The seize time after you overheat lasts 3.5 seconds IIRC. My personal best ADS match
Soldier Sorajord Subsonic Synthesis RISE of LEGION 171	Posted - 2014.04.03 22:13:00 - [7] - Quote So, scout + ScP > Scout + IP Generically speaking, Since you can decloak and shoot, and probably get headshots easily with the cloak atm. And I'm guessing that like the ScR it's generically better to fast fire than charging. 3.6 seconds is a long cooldown for a sidearm, but the fact that it doesn't hurt you sounds cool.

Oswald Rehnquist 1325	Posted - 2014.04.03 22:14:00 - [8] - Quote The ScP was suppose to have 4.5 though in performance tests some claim it was actually 3.5. I believe the sniper is 1.9 (something like that), but don't quote me on that one. Everything else is 1.25 Below 28 dB

I apologize for the lack of clarity These are the head shot multipliers, 4.5 = 450% damage increase for a head shot. I also meant sniper rifle. Below 28 dB

That's headshot multipliers. Also, in reference to Charging, some may say it's better to fast fire, but if you can make it work, charging works just as well (sometimes better) and is easier on the ammo.

Lots of fun watching a cloaked scout run at you with his shotty and blapping him in the chest just before he gets into optimal range. -YOU HAVE BEEN SCANNED- "Good, then they'll know who killed them." Keep your knives sharp....and your wits sharper.

Not to mention it's so much more fun ScP is 4.5 vs shields, but is about 3.7 or so vs armor. Sniper is 1.9 vs shields and 2.1 vs shields. b Lot of time spent using those...kind of makes me sad that I am a Caldari purist, I will miss the ScP (yes I still have the SP in them, but I refuse to give those religious nut jobs any more of my hard earned ISK). Though as far as the IP goes, charge shot means 3.5 second seize...I will stick to my slow as kitten Rail Pistol.
