I used to use the ScR on my Scout, and it was great, though now I just can't get a grip on it. Still love the AScR though, tis a beast.

Normal ScR is utter crap.
However every ScR does perfectly fine on Amarr Assault lv5. Especialy Viziam with 2dmg mods. This thing shreds armor as fast as shields.

Its used less than the other rifles, but that is to be expected. It has the highest skill cap amongst the rifles, but also the highest learning curve. Still not a lot considering all the rifles are pretty easy to use, but still working as intended.
Actually, the heat buildup still needs to be changed to work on a per shot basis rather than a timed effect. Simply yo make the weapon easier to understand, and make balancing easier to implement in the future if needed. LOLno

Commando A/1-Series, approach with caution.
Or just run away screaming.
It is not advised to attack unless in Sentinel.

Just have to get a feel for it. The "sidearm" on the commando is a laser rifle, which is useless at close range lol.
well don't run two weapons with the same damage profile. i would either run a SCR/CR fit or LR/CR (or ACR if that suits you better)... |

When i use my scrambler rifle, i do what THUNDERGROOVE said
either pull out my bolt pistol (armor damaging profile) before my gun overheats or pull it out when i get to my opponents armor. It does so well in CQC the bolt pistol
1.10 will kill stealthy scouts
time to respec into an assault :D

I have 2 commando fits, 1 for long range (rail rifle/scrambler rifle) and 1 for short range (combat rifle, assault rifle)

ScR is not UP
It just takes more user input and experience to use effectively than other rifles.

I love the ScR.
On an amarr assault the ScR is a beast for anyone with good aim and less spray and pray shooting.
On all other suits the ScR is comparable to other light weapons at its role of killing shield suits and low ehp suits like scouts.
However, the ScR is weak against stacked armor suits even with amarr assault lvl 5. But that's what SMGs are for.
The only winner of WWIII will be the cockroaches.

I know the amarr assault suit gets a bonus to reduce heat build-up, but I just bought the 'Paladin' commando, and the overheat is too much. I can't deal enough damage to most enemies before it overheats, often leaving them on 40-50% armor when they kill my overheated commando.
It has more range than the RR, does it? That's cool and all, but when it comes to close range combat against a heavy, (a heavy that you can defeat by strafing), you have no chance unless you can find a bit of cover to let your ScR cool down.
I feel like speeding up the cooldown of the rifle would be necessary, what do you think?
PS: I don't usually write that much, so if you don't understand something up there, blame me lol.
Make a Caldari shield tank alt and then ask that question lol. Nothing kills shield tanks faster than the ScR, but of course shield tanks don't exist thanks to the continuous buffing of shield profiled weapons to make them perform on par with RR/CR against armor tanks.
I posted an explanation of what's happening in my own thread here:
https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=183532&find=unread
TL;DR: The AR and ScR have been balanced to perform on par with the popular form of tanking IE. armor tanking, making shield tanking more and more rare and therefor unaccounted for in balancing the game. |
