Would you share with us the ~1000eHP fit in question?

So your mad your standard heavy didn't insta gib an assault Ak.0

So...u want your little heavy to kill a proto medium suit without effort ?

Are you trying to suggest that a STD suit that gets the drop on a PRO suit STILL shouldn't be able to beat them, even if the weapon held by the STD is a CQC weapon, and the weapon held by the PRO is a long range weapon, when the two are separated by about 10m?

No, I've done it plenty of times but what I am saying is that you shouldn't be surprised that you lost to an 1000+ armor buffer like most Ak.0's fit. And to say you shouldn't die to a long range weapon in cqc is kinda stupid when you have a large hit box 10m close. No amount of strafing would of saved you.

Alright. That was pretty much what I was expecting.
With math, I can conclude that the PRO Am assault shot you at least 3 times in the head, with one of those three shots being the charged shot. Whether or not the 4th shot was in the head is unknown, but considering that the other three were, it is very likely.

Keep in mind, that if those shots were not in the head, you would have been very likely to win.

No I don't, but it's pretty obvious it's the way that it is. But sure go ahead and take away the tight hip fire it'll make it all the better in cqc.

The hmg seems to do just fine :D

And the people arguing against it have....? I fail to see any point in the "My suit has more duct tape and insect droppings on it; Your argument is invalid" statement. I don't really even use ScR's anymore, I use CR's because of their pathetically low fitting costs, which people also conveniently ignore.



You are confusing me with someone else, I never made any such statement about the HMG. Also, I'm not guessing here. When I have fought Logi bro recently he is typically using a STD Minmatar sentinel with an ADV burst HMG. (He also said as much in this thread)

yes because thats a clear lack of talent and skill on your part if you can't shoot a armor assault suit in the back with a HMG. and for all the people complaing about the scrambler rifle most of you are standing still makeing it very easy to land headshots. if a suit or gun is OP it would be spamed in PC battles but its not. but yes a scrambler rifle will fell OP against a low HP bad player who does not move much in a gunfight. so don't nerf the scrambler buff bad unskilled players.

Combat rifle will do the same DPS, in fact better because of the smaller damage penalty.

Your problem was you were in a STD dropsuit and the Minmatar laser resistance is to ARMOR, so if you're not in your best suit stacking the best armor you can get on it, don't expect to feel a huge difference.

It's the same reason my STD Amarr Heavy gets torn up by PRO HMGs.

You seem to complain an awful lot with nothing to back it up other than "oh noes it's OP." or "the DPS (which I haven't actually analyzed) is crazy, bro!" If it's so amazing, why do so few people use it? Why don't YOU use it?

Seriously, nothing has changed substantially with the ScR in over a year. In fact, with the shield/armor imbalance and the change to proficiency, it's arguably been nerfed. I don't even use the damn thing and this is all just so ridiculous I can't help but be baffled at it.

Answer me the following questions:

- How have the masses not figured out its OP by now?
- Why is it statistically the least used of all the main racial rifles?
- Why didn't Nyain San spam it mercilessly?
- Why don't you see entire squads running them in every battle (like with the old TAR)?
- Why is it not the dominant weapon in PC? (CR is, last I checked)
- Why has CCP left this, of all weapons, totally alone all this time while nerfing the flaylock, TAR, beta Viziam LR, all into oblivion at some point?
