The CR is good so long as they are not ferroscale stacked and shield stacked scouts or min assaults at 5m ranges, they strafe to fast. Thats where the ACR is better. The SCR is also a FPShooter. despite other many other FPS games not having less damage at certain close ranges, they use bad recoil and accuracy instead.
That works moderately well.
The SCR has a low zoom red dot sight. It was clearly designed to have some potential in CQC. Its inaccuracy makes it deadly at 10m to 18m engagements. Its hard to out strafe. if you gets too close you may break there aim if your fast enough. Use a caldari assault with a shotgun from behind with dampeners, or use scouts.
Or use 3 proto dampeners on a std amarr sentinel with a ACR or HMG. You maybe slow, but I have no problem most of the time. You just have to surprise 7 other enemies first on your way to kill the proto SCR user. That can be hard. If you flank right you might only encounter 2 enemies before you reach your target.

Then, if it was a proto ScR or even a maxed skill advanced, it's normal that it killed you fast. I mean.. every rifles kill you fast when they are maxed! It was advanced, no idea what his skills are, but the fact that this long range weapon is murderous at close range is simply a fail on balance.
THE SCR has a lower damage per overheat compared to short range rifles, its also less user friendly, you cant kill as many enemies before you need a break. If you use assaults and not heavies, you should focus on regen and long range battles, or ewar stealth and flank and ambush like a master. you can win against SCRs with a caldari sentinel that regen tanks while you use light weapons, you keep poping in and out every 7 seconds.
keep in mind that the SCR cost more PG and CPU compared to other weapons so it must have something extra so it can justify that cost. |
