Hello,
I don't post much on the forums but i think we have to consider looking into the statistics a little more before doing something, should take but a moment.
Rattati you have mentioned that the SCR has better than average for all rifles in terms of efficiency, but also that it is less used than he other rifles, let me ask you what is the STD for how much better the eff % is, and more importantly what is the std of the number of players using it,.
I am simply concerned that we aren't comparing apples to apples here, a skill focused weapon whose only remaining users were those on the upper end of the skill bell curve would skew the weapon towards being more efficient than it's counterparts, simply because the sample population isn't comparable.
now after looking into that it may be that some adjustment is needed, i can however tell you that the ROF is a tricky thing it will definitely hurt turbos which is great, but as others have stated you can double tap fast enough to hit a lower cap which will feel odd. More importantly though i think it won't have near the effect you want, as others have mentioned there is a lot of front load on the DPS of the rifle especially with the charge. this means there are some engagements where the opponent can't return fire, but usually the SCR user then has to take cover to cool down from near Overheat or Overheat.
and I have been using the laser and scr exclusively since they came out btw :) |

It's possible to take that into account (KDR or WP/s stats partitioned by weapon). I'm fairly certain Rattati has the chops to consider that, given his background.
yes i believe he sepatated the stats so he knows by weapon, and that was part of the issue.
if the small number of scrambler rifle users at this moment are in fact simply the +1.5 to +2 sigma users for the average rifle, as the <+1.5 sigma users moved to the other rifles because of ease of use, then by definition the performance of the SCR on average is better than the performance of the other rifles because the average player using it is better than the average player using the other rifles.
depending on the relationship of players to performance i was trying to deduce if in fact that could account for some of the variance he is seeing, and if so how much so as to get us a better idea of the WEAPONS performance component versus player.
It may be nothing but i have a sneaking suspicion that 90% of the SCR users out there are like me and have been using it since it came out through thick and thin, and know it's ins and outs, and have prof V, amarr assault V so the data gets skewed by the player skill / familiarity with weapon / depth of specialization over the average rifle, where a much larger fraction of the users are newer players with less familiarity / skill points |
