Nope, i haven't been shot by an actual charged shot in about four days. It's always a volley from a CRW or construct imperial.

If they aren't using charge shots, then they are scrambler neophytes and may the Lord have mercy on their souls.

Hmm the thing is yes the SCR is probably the weapon that benefits the most from a modded controller BUT its really hard to tell if someone is using one as there are some quick fingers out there that can achieve quite an impressive performance with the SCR without a modded controller...
IMHO giving a semi auto weapon that ridiculous high Rof wasn't the smartest move CCP made, but still CCP and and some others believe that overheating will keep the weapon balanced.
But as long as heat build up is tied to the time a weapon is fired instead to the actual shots fired this is only partly true. Sure the weapon will overheat if you use it uncontrolled and yes there is the drawback of cool down. But If you compare the SCR to the TAC AR (it only true racial counterpart)...it gets obvious that the SCR is superior even though the damage profile may not be as appealing as the TAC ARs one. |

The high RoF is the only thing able to allow it to keep up with the other rifles and even then it still has the god awful damage profile to overcome.
The Amarr scout bonus is like the old Amarr sentinel bonus. No one needed 25% reduction to overheat damage on a heavy;_;

The ScR it's the least used out of RR, AR, CR and shotgun. And for good reason because the ScR had the best balancing mechanic with the heat buildup.
Players have always tried to claim the ScR is OP but the simple fact it is the least used light weapon disproves this claim. The CR is much more powerful than a ScR simply because it doesn't overheat, making it easier to use, and the CR has a better damage profile.
The ScR is a precision weapon, not a spray and pray weapon. This is why only skilled players with good aim use them.
And as far as rate of fire I know I can rapid fire a very fast burst with the ScR, but I can't sustain that rate of fire past 8 or 9 shoots.

Using a turbo controller with a scrambler is an assured overheat. Very, very, very bad idea imho. It's just called being able to press the trigger fast ;)
Fun fact: The community is the worst thing that ever happened to this game.

The ScR with a non-Amarr assault is a finely balanced weapon. It's powerful, with huge alpha damage - but you can't sustain that damage and you have to be careful with your shooting. A precision weapon that punishes you for missing.
Modded controllers are a thing with some people I'm sure - but as someone who doesn't use one, I've been accused of using one plenty of times. It's probably my most common mail. The thing is - with the ScR, it's pretty much you either kill the target very quickly or you don't kill them. The heat mechanic is a nice balancing tool. It kind of goes out the window with the Amarr assault (which is pretty much the most powerful combination I've used in this game) but the unbonused ScR is in a good place.
It's never going to be as popular as an automatic or burst weapon that doesn't have the heat mechanic simply from an ease of use perspective. People are more likely to dislike the ScR and not use it. Thus, low usage. It's not because it's bad - it's because it's different.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.

The high RoF is the only thing able to allow it to keep up with the other rifles and even then it still has the god awful damage profile to overcome. The 120% against balances with the 80% against armor. I think people forget that in a gun fight the SCR will melt shields nearly instantly and being working on the enemy armor sooner. Also consider how one can simply use an SMG as a clean up for the armor in many situations.
Or better yet, consider a hypothetical rifle with a 180/20 damage profile against shield/armor. Would anyone really complain about this? Effectively the weapon and act as a lot distance flux grenade. Many suits in the game would be worthless against this weapon with no skill required on the part of the user. Yes this weapon would be useless against armor, but would suggesting a ROF increase to "balance" it more with the current rifles make sense? Essentially we would just be making a ridiculously powerful weapon that could destroy just about any shield character. Should we then buff it to make it less useless against armor characters as well? |

I have to agree and disagree with you Arky, I honestly believe you think the assault combo is OP because you play to its advantages at long range or before you prototype the assault you mastered its abilities in a non-Amarr suit causing you to think that way. But what you said about it being different is right, before I use to hate the semi version because I was use to the auto fire of the gek but once I saw my scores improve with semi I gained a higher respect for its less scrubby ways of killing.
Its alright everyone, no need to worry it's just an Amarr scout :(

Pro tip: Vibrate your finger while slanting your hand a little to gain a good trigger finger. Since they nerfed the ScR, the charge shot isn't that useful. I usually overheat when I charge the head, and follow up. SInce I don't use M/KB, I can't shoot the head proficiently. CCP really needs to fix that.

Dust's shooting mechanics ain't that bad. Aim with the left analog stick not the right. i.e. Strafe to aim.
Always start with a charge against Medium and Light frames. Do not charge against Heavies, fire swiftly and switch to sidearm.
Lastly; use the Amarr Assault.

OP =/= FOTM
FOTM is the weapon that provides the most benefit for the least effort (Or just the weapon that everyone is using in that build)
OP is a weapon that is too powerful when compared to the other weapons in its class.
Not saying that the ScR is OP (It isn't), just pointing out a distinction between Popularity and it's actual Power.
Just because it's widely used doesn't make it OP.

Yeah, having been a loyal Amarr-tech user since it's inception I can say that... I have burned myself alot with scrambler rifles. I'm a quick shot, having run alot of scrambler pistol fits (used to be able to empty a battery in under 3 seconds... then they killed the refire rate and I was sad) so I can usually get to the edge of burning myself in just 2-3 seconds. No modded controller needed. I can only wonder how often you'd burn yourself if you did use a modded controller... |

The Scrambler Rifle has never been the least used light weapon in any iteration/patch in DUST 514's history. That title has -always- belonged to the Plasma Cannon, Swarm Launcher, and Mass Driver. Source: DUST 514 Market Data
Suggesting that a lower quantity equates to a lower quality is a fallacy, but sadly uneducated people don't realize this. Good job at farming likes though. I'll just count how many people like your without realizing that.
Amarrians would prefer you be faithful... I'd rather you be logical.

I'll just count how many people like your without realizing that. It's not that lower quantity means lower quality, it means lower saturation. A lower saturation suggests that it's not as popular as other more populous weapons like the rail rifle and combat rifle. Even the assault rifle (or is it plasma rifle now? I never keep up) has a higher saturation than the scrambler rifle. But it still doesn't change that the scrambler rifle will bite you just as the laser rifle does if you don't use it intelligently. |

Its blatantly obvious when someone is using some sort of turbo mode on the scrambler. The scrambler fan boys do not like to admit it. I have been saying for the longest time that the scrambler needs a reasonable rate of fire nerf.
I like how CCP is not pushing the TAC AR rate of fire up to the scramblers level... I wonder if that has anything to do with modded / turbo controllers..... |

It's truly sad that you still let the ScR harvest your tears. Listen...if CCP saw a problem like ScR's being abused by nodded controllers, don't you think it would have been addressed already? The TAC got fixed, right? Do you want to know why they haven't touched it? I'll give you a hint...
...because that problem does not exist. The only thing that exists is guys like you who remain bitter about getting destroyed by good ScR users. Bad ScR users will overheat more than they kill. Period.
Modded/turbo controllers are for bad players with absolutely zero skill. I can guarantee the good ScR users don't need one and the bad ScR users will fill up the killfeed with ("insert name here"...committed suicide if they use one.
Now here...have a Kleenex, sir and teach those tears who's the boss!

Lets not forget that if you spam the trigger not only do you take a nice chunk of damage, you also cant sprint, cant shoot and cantreload. You bbasically fluxed yourself so armor munching weapons like the RR can have their way with you. Speaking of the RR, with all the cries of nerf this nerf that, why doesn't anyone talk about that? Now thats easy mode.
