RR - long range rifle with strong kick. Somebody from dev team doesn't know how long range gun should act while shooting.
CR - Medium range rifle. Yet it's king of CQC.
ugly Rifle - gall tech. Desinged for CQC yet it's defeated by CR.
ScR - god rifle. Every minmatar who will look at its gold will get blind.

Because it sucks at its intended range due to the kick it has. If it had less ads kick and slightly more hipfire kick, then we'd see either less of them in entirety, or them being used in their intended ranges. Possibly both. |

I think there is something in there along the lines that the heat build up warrants the ROF and Damage which is laughable...

Fact: if scrambler rifle was op, everyone would use it. u can't tell me any different. Its undeniable proof. When things are op the entire playerbase moves to it en masse. Tell me im wrong. You could say its the combo with the amarr assault but it doesnt seem like anyone had a problem skilling into min assault.

So basically he wants to wait till people pay for respecs to spec into the flavor of the month in order to nerf it and hope they buy another respec ? |

Wrong, it's SP and assault suit skill buffs that decrease its use

look at this link http://dust.thang.dk/market_tryhardinator.php
it is the most least used rifle. that fact says 1000 words . no SCR features in the top 10 most used light weapons yet the AR has 4 the CR 3 and the RR 2 in the list. |

That's like saying to an Amarr commando: skill into the Minmatar scout and get nova knives, even though you don't use either!

Any tryhard has had plenty of time to skill into it. Like i said before, the sp hasn't stopped a ton of people from skilling min assault to proto. Im not saying its op but what i am saying is its not a big deal to skill a suit to 3 and a weapon to proto. I know youve been around for quite a while. You know as well as i do that when anything is op the playerbase flocks to it. Rattati is also aware of this

You enjoy being wrong? lol he sad scramblers only accounted for less then 7% ( something like that feel free to search threads for exact) of the light weapon kills. Even if everyone and their mother started using it he still wouldn't touch it unless the kills for it went up, so no not "when more people use "

CCP Rattati wrote:Scrambler Rifle is the most efficient rifle of them all. That's a fact.
However, due to heat mechanism and most likely the need to skill Amarr Dropsuits to maximize its potential, it is not dominant in Kills compared to other rifles.
If I see a migration of the playerbase over to SCR, so that Kills and efficiency become the highest, it will get looked at.

i think your being over the top to say the least. suit to lvl 3 and gun to level 4 and its a very playable combo.
a scout takes far more SP's to be viable as its non viable until you have the scout suit skill to 4, then you need your EWAR and stam/speed skils to a reasonable level . how many scouts do you see?
as for how great the Ammar assault is......it is the worst assault suit out there. if your going to use another gun and you have the ability your not going to use the ammar assault its too slow and has bad re gen.

ScR is the ONLY rifle that requires maxed skills in ScR and suit to be useful. You can do great with any rifles on any suits, except with the ScR, you need to have a maxed amAss.
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!

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.

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. |
