Finally people use the, it's the most skilled weapon in the game, you and I both know that's a barefaced lie, the Scrambler has similar behaviour to the other 3 rifles types, their is no travel time, their is no lower accuracy or smaller shots that are more likely to miss, nothing. The only thing skillful about the ScR is not overheating but getting close to doing so.

In short you entire argument is based upon circumstantial evidence and made up opinions, your vested intrest in the weapon is clearly visible and you prodice no valid reason for the ScR being allowed to perform at it's curent effectiveness.

There are no tweaks for the Assault Scrambler as it may be suffering from Armor tanking environment, unless there is a specific reason you can find, there is nothing in the stats that says it should be.

Umm I don't know how to tell you this but there was no recoil there and kick was negligible.
Unless you were compensating for it, the weapon never moved from that caution sign.

Get the ACR and try the same exercise with that, you'll find yourself halfway up the Door.
Get the ARR and try the same execise with that, you'll find the sights jump around like a frog on springs.
What you are prehaps talking about is the ADS dispersion, in which case yes it would probably benifit from a lower ADS dispersion.

For clarification
Kick is how much the site vary/sway from there point of origin after a shot is fired.
High Kick results in the weapons feeling unruly in ADS but will require little actual repositioning.

Recoil is how bad the torque reaction is, as the rifle kicks it moves slightly upwards and to the right (traditionally - for a right handed weapon), HROF weapons typically exhibit the most recoil, this physically changes the aim of the weapon and requires re targeting during prolonged periods of firing.

When he talks about efficiency he means in match effectiveness, the ScR is getting higher KDR and lower kill times than the other weapons, this is because it's a front loaded weapon.

The ScR works by doing large amounts of damage for a short period of time, they bsing incapacitated due to overheat constraints. But this creates an operational problem. The overheat is only a problem if you can't kill your opponent before you reach that overheat.

In any other scenario, you've already killed that guy so what difference does it matter?
Now alot of scrambler rifle user rebuke this by saying, but as soon as you put it against 2 people it's balanced.

Which is a biased arguement, since their is just an equal chance their will only be one of them and two of you. Furthermore most weapons would look underpowered/balanced when pitched against 2 enemies. That's kinda the point of teamwork.

Anyway I'm starting to digress, you say it balanced against 2 people, which means in order to reliably beat an ScR user of average skill, you need 2 people of average skill weilding a different set of weapons. One as cannon fodder and one to finish you off. So what happens when 8 memebers of your team run a scrambler rifle, you need 8 pairs to engage them, aka the entire enemy team, which bearing in mind their are still 8 people on your team left running around creates a serious force imbalance.

We infact end up with a similar situation that tankers were in, if takes more than 1 person to reliably defeat another you get a force inbalance. Now another common rebuttal is, but there is more armour tankers than shield tankers, now whole this fact is currently true, both your self and I are aware that was never always the case, in fact shields have still being paying for that since the armour buff.

But here's the thing if we look at the new Projectile profile damage of -15/+15, if shields become the most preferred tank type again, is it fair that the CR gets a damage buff in order to deal with the over popularity of shields? No? So why is it fair to give such a bonus to the ScR?

Finally people use the, it's the most skilled weapon in the game, you and I both know that's a barefaced lie, the Scrambler has similar behaviour to the other 3 rifles types, their is no travel time, their is no lower accuracy or smaller shots that are more likely to miss, nothing.

In my opinion the ScR needs a DPS only marginally better than the AR, (460 probably) and slightly slower overheat. This still gives enough DOT to kill most suits before the overheat, but skill comes intomthe equation alot more. The weapon also becomes less useful in CQC because with the low accuracy enviroment the overheat becomes a much mkre severly limiting factor.

I would achieve this by nerfing both DPS and Damage to around 8 shots per second (8.45 to be precise) and the relevamt damage, 58 per shot.

Good Point, but prehaps the question should be, why are so many people stacking eHP?
PC is considerably less tactical than the Master Race would have you believe.

Only the OP fits are used in PC.
Once EVERYTHING is balanced, the ScR will also be balanced.

It's not a case of the ScR being OP, it's a case of their being more OP things out there.

If you look at the DPS Tuning thread, you'll see that after the changes made in DELTA all the other rifles will be balanced. Hopefully
What more OP than the ScR is brick tanking, scouts with 700-800 eHP, Assault with just shy of a 1000, Heavies with nearly 1600 eHP, this shouldn't be possible especially with a PRO primary weapon equipped.

Biotic modules need serious buffs.
We need more hybrid tanking modules
We need more support modules.

Afterall pretty much any weapon will look UP when you pit it against someone with 2-3x your eHP
