Along as shields exist, your TTK ain't going anywhere. Shield suits just warp through CR bullets without damage.

I can absolutely second this statement. Recently, I've noticed I've been mowed down by ANYTHING Caldari (I run Gallente Assault rocking the Republic ACR, prof 3, everything else 5. If you're looking for a cheap ACR, i highly recommend the RACR. You can get them for like 610 ISK). ANYWAY, I've recently been playing with my sidearm to dwindle down the shields of the Caldari bast*rds. I've currently got a scrambler pistol, and it's mediocre to say the least. I dont have everything up on it, so with a little training, I guess it would be more effective. I've also been thinking about messing with a AR/Mag Sec combo. Will give more info once I mess with that.

The ACR is worst than SMG at first, what you need is basicaly spec it up with full operation, sharpshooter and proficiency. This magic make from mediocre fastshooting weapon, armor shreding beast. *"In the rust we trust"*

You and me both, IDK what it is but the ACR just feels weird and I've got everything but fitting op on the CR to 5. Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair.

That is why I am using the ACR most of the time. But the damage VS shields is pathetic if you don't use damage mods, which is why I also use a ScP. Open a fight with ScP and then switch to ACR once their shields are down. Works good enough for me. SCANS 514 // @JebusMcKing G£î

Works good enough for me, though still the ACR could use some love, I guess. Just a little bit. yeah burst cr is poor when lag is present.. so mostly peek time weekdays and all the time weekends. #[[LogiBro ADV/PRO]] [[Level 2 Forum Warrior]] [[Level 2 Forum Pariah]]

Lloyd Orfay Kinsho Swords Caldari State 236	Posted - 2014.11.29 09:36:00 - [26] - Quote I used to be a very heavy assault combat rifle user before hotfix delta. It was best for me to 1 on 1 with scouts in CQC, had its medium range and fast rof and all, but let me show you something. Before hotfixes, projectile weaponry had a damage profile of -5% to shielding, 10% to armour The advanced ACR has a damage stat of roughly 20 5% of 20 makes it 19 Before Delta, there weren't many used high stacked shield tanking suits, so shooting through shields was a no brainer and only gave a bit more resistence to the kill. Now, there are a bit of more common shield tanking assault suits, and more shield tanking overall(some people even find a way to dual tank on gal scouts) If I remember correctly now it's 15% to armour -15% to shields 15% of 20 makes it 17. Now, it's very low damaging here. At 1000 RPM, the ACR shoots a continuous line of bullets, and with its 17 damage against shields, its basically like a basic laser rifle, but with no damage increase. (And the point of use for the LR is the gradual damage increase itself. Who would use a laser rifle without that? No one, just as how no one would use an inefficient CR) The increase damage to armour superpowered it when it was already powerful against armour tankers, so they of course die easily. Like I typed earlier, there is more high stacked shield tanking, so now the ACR will have indefinite trouble shooting through shields. It WOULD be better if it had higher rate of fire and a bigger clip to shoot through the high stacking shielding trend right now, but that would further push imbalancement for armour tankers. Currently, the only way to return it to its former glory is to use damage mods, yet even then shields yield quite the resistence. Other than that it's simply best to not use it unless the match was filled with armour tankers The normal CR has the same issue shooting through shields because of more common shield stacking. My Isk payout gets lower and lower the more I play, even though I'm getting better. Smells like success.
