Do want souped up ACR.

MASS DRIVER DOES +20% TO ARMOR.

CAPS BECAUSE I AM YELLING

OH SH*TTTT!!! AT LEAST MD DOESN'T DO 1000 DPS TOWARD ARMOR LIKE SCR DOES TOWARD ARMOR. Comparing ScR to a MD is like comparing a horse to a lizard. That is how bad of a comparison it is. It is like comparing Pb (Lead) to Oxygen... It's like, showing how stupid u are.

ACR is no where near as powerful toward armor as a ScR is toward shield

Lol dude. Just lol.

learn to MD, be less bad.
Also didnt the CR get its profile changed to -20/+20 or it still floating the -15/+15?

Dukey, take your Prozac and carry on.

What the... man r u high?
SCR has a natural high damage per shot plus 20/20 damage profile what do you expect from a shield damaging weapon

remember all shield users believe that every SCR user has the ability to do paper DPS, when the truth is most people can't get anywhere remotely close to it ( without a modded controller)

This.

Ironically some guns perform below paper numbers. Other guns perform at paper numbers! o.O

It has 139% efficiency toward shield at proficiency 5 and does 99 damage per shot toward shield with proficiency alone not to mention it has over 1000 DPS toward shield and you can't tank shield as high as Armor suits can tank Armor.

I bet if armor had a exact ScR like copy but that did 20% extra to armor, they would QQ like punks too.

If you can fire 7 shots a second, which is 420 RPM (mostly everyone can) you have a DPS of about 770 towards shield not to mention a lot of people can also go over 420 and SCR is pinpoint accurate making it deadly at long range. Also, if you are like many Amarr Assaults walking around now a days, they charge their weapon so add that into DPS which will calmly make it over 1000. I know what you are gonna say, a charge shot takes time to charge true, but what else do you do when behind cover?

I have a ScR and I walk around with it charged almost 80% of the time whether there are enemies or not. I can't charge my CR like that, I can't charge my AR like dat. Anyway, 7 shots to take down 700 shields (not including the damage mods) is quite OP where as it takes a whole clip from a CR and probably 2-3 seconds to take down (Accounting in for stupidly high dispersion) to take down like 500 shields.

i take your point about the charged get someone by suprise and its great if you hit.....big drawback if you miss. but realistically 95% of people will not achieve 7 shots per second. average person is probably about 4 on a controller and online it recons its about 5 on the mouse ( but thats with nothing to concentrate on)

I direct your attention to the bane of all armor users:

The HMG.

Make it +10/-10.

Just wait for the tears. It's not a problem with damage profiles. You're just getting rekt

I like the ASCR, it's one of the few MD support weapons, that make sense on the minmando...

ASCR to strip their shields, and MD for the finishiing touch... LOLs guaranteed

What we need, is a Tactical Combat Rifle.

what you need is a new amarr weapon to make you cry again...

Says the guy who made 5-6 threads crying about how MinAssaults are OP and that the AmAssault is UP.

Shield tankers are currently incentivized to use rail rifles to out range SCRs and ASCRs so that they can have a chance.

Additionally the shield tanker benefit more from using cover than armor tankers assuming they are using proto mods on both suits or the same tier, eg: both use std suits but with proto regeneration mods and minimal hp mods.

Shield tankers seem to be incentivized to use dampeners more than armor tankers by the arrangement of low slot mods and high slot mods. Despite the caldari having less low slots.

If you want a shield tanker to succeed (in CQC) against a SCR armor tanker, use a std medium caldari frame with 2 proto dampeners and hp shield mods in the high slots, while using a assault combat rifle, so you can flank your opponent while he is busy with other players. Or use a std shotgun. or an assault rifle. Or an assault rail rifle. But you must be extremely accurate with one long burst of bullets. Otherwise you may fail.

Did you know that the std assault rail rifle has a higher damage per clip compared to the std assault rifle? lol.

Or use a adv caldari medium "assault" suit with 2 proto dampener and 2 shield hp mods and 2 proto precision enhancers, with an ACR or shotgun etc. (getting a value of 20's in scan profile and precision with high hp is easier in an assault suit than a scout)
You should make sure you are not discovered until you attack up close. This can be very challenging in proto stomps. You may get unlucky by being killed by scouts. DUST 514 is very chaotic and even if you do everything right some things can go wrong.

But scouts are able to get better max ewar than assault suits but with less health and more speed and cloak. Both are very good at some stuff.
