I've been playing around with it quite a bit lately. I've only used it in bursts since 1.8, so I'd like to know what the rest of you folks think of how it's turned out.
Did anyone use their suit respec to go Amarr assault?
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.

Ghost Kaisar seemed happy about it (Amarr Assault + AScR).
Then again, he also enjoys his melee fit.
Sometimes I worry about Ghost.

I heard it's really hard to use until you get to the assault version.

So the semi-auto in general then?

I don't think the Amarr assault bonus worked for the first several weeks of 1.8. This may have contributed to the decline in ScR usage. On paper the weapon should work well, it was nerfed a lot less than CR and RR. |

Ghost is a strange fellow. Last time I squadded with him he was using sniper rifle and nova knives... Wait, ASCR? Not semi-auto SCR? On an Amarr assault? ... but it doesn't overheat anyway, whhhhyyyy...
A strange fellow, indeed
But no matter what curious combination he's toying with at the time, the bastard consistently outperforms me on the Leaderboards. I'm equal parts jealous and amazed.
Today, he ran a proto Ion Pistol. Said he'd skilled into Proficiency. Unbelievable.

I feel offended. Why does everyone hate on my favourite weapon? 
Anyway, still run the Scrambler Rifle, never tried it on an Amarr assault though.
Never did like using the AScR.

Feels bit deadly too and very satisfying to get the charge shots in to down a distant foe or alpha strike them hard enough to bring them down before you overheat.

Gal Sents are usually the bane of my existence while playing on my main. Not even charged shots to the head seem to slay those beasts. And since I'm all amarr, the only exp weapon I have are locus grenades. Those only do 75% damage now :/.

Love the semi auto scr (viziam to be exact)
Chews 80% of suits out their
Minus fully tanked amarr and gal sentienls
The assault is cool nd all but lacks the dps punch needed
And you run out of ammo quick
Any amarr assault who uses an assault variant scr is sirry
So so sirry

Ive been Amarr assault since it came out. its basically a gallente with an op scrambler now.
The PG amd CPU on the suit, plus the assault class bonus makes for some crazy fits.
when you pop out of cover with a barrage of shots it makes the target jump with fear.
Go for headshots, i dont care what variant you use.
I personally agree that Amarr assuts should NOT use the assault variant. Save the assaut version for the Amarr commando. That reload speed is phenominal too. |

Here's the better question:
Has anyone managed to exploit the 12 shots per second glitch? It's supposed to give the ScR the highest DPS light weapon in the game.
Even against armor.

I often run around with a CRW on my scout suit. It melts other scouts and most medium frames.
I still love the charge shoot of the ScR but it only really shines when you are around 50m from target. The charge shot overheat is annoying inside cqc range.
But the ScR does feel weak against heavies. I usually land a charge shot to their head then switch to my smg to finish them off as it drops their armor much faster than a ScR does.

The only way to ensure freedom is by having the means to defend it.

I used it on my proto assault since it came out-1.7 then I switched to A-scout and Scr which took time to get use to but I learned how to use it. I picked my targets more carefully and only attacked heavies +30m or use my REs if they got to close.
Its alright everyone, no need to worry it's just an Amarr scout :(

I've been playing around with it.
It works surprisingly well on my speed-tanked MinAssault. Not as well as my precious Combat Rifle, but it still works well nonetheless.

In terms of damage output, Proto still bretty good most of the time, basic version hit hard by the Prof + Damage Mod changes. Hit detection is back to major suckage on the semi-auto, too.
Reality is the original Rorschach.
Verily! So much for all that.

It's still fun to visualize pixelated poo falling out en ememies backside when, out of nowhere, all their shields and a chunk of armor magically disappear.
Love my scrambler! Charge, not assault. It feels so flimsy and takes forever to get the job done.
I am the cool.

I just finished off level 5 in Amarr assault, Scrambler Operation, and Scrambler Prof. While I still have not quite adjusted to the different play style it needs the skill really compliment each other and make it very fun. Until you have at least level 3 in the assault you have to keep your distance and use the range to your advantage and avoid overheats but after that it gets awesome in just about any situation aside from an armor tanked scout.

I use it on my G-1 scout. I love it. On my 'Neo' Commando I use a PLC and SCR. On my scout I either run SCR/SCP or SCR/Bolt combo. Or my new favorite,
speed-tanked G-1 with SCR and Knives. The charge shot is epic. And I'm a speed tanked G-1 heavy and SCR shots bounce of me like marshmallows.

It struggles against heavies, and unless your aim is exceptional scouts too. But that charged shot is just wow. So many tactical options open up Ito you when you possess the ability to just pop out of cover for a second and one-shot an opponent by drilling a hole through his head.
Overall, it's probably the best tactical rifle in the game, but it really struggles in intense firefights with lots of opponents. The over heat will kill you one way or the other. The assault variant is nice, but the flash is bothersome and it's not worth the price.

I use it on my caldari scout dubbed the 'scout destroyer' with passive scans and the scrambler rifle. I don't have to worry about any race except gallante because I know that it will chew through any suit that isn't gallante and not heavy. Using the cloak I get behind the enemy and most times I can get off a charged shot and 3 more shots before they even realise and for gallante and amar heavys, remote explosives, when they walk through the door and BOOM! Dead. In my opinion it is best used when flanking and destroys scouts even gallente but the fitting costs are quite high. |

I've been Amarr Assault for a few months now, and I've been using the ScR for... Well, more than a year, I guess.
It's no good on any suit but Amarr Assault at the moment (or scouts, I guess, but mediums don't have the DPS anymore to run it properly, and can't dictate combat like a scout can).
Can't kill heavies properly with it, although it's arguably better for it in the hands of an Amarr Assault than most guns.
I think should the Amarr Assault be given an extra slot, it'd be fine as a suit, and the ScR would be competitive.
When the hit-detection works.
My biggest problem? 20 PG.

I went level 4 in amarr assault with the respec, rarely use it because it's so slow, but scrambler rifles don't really work against cloaked scouts when you have a bad trigger finger like me.... I've been practicing though. (Assault scrambler is EZ mode, I hate it)
