Needs to be worked on a little bit. There are really a few players using it regularly, making it one of the less used weapons in combat.
If from the number of scrambler users you consider those using a turbo controller, the number of "legit" scrambler users is really low. This lead me to think that it might be worked a little bit, considering it is a "normal" light weapon and not a mass driver or rocket/plasma launcher.
Infact, both of its variants are the most underused primaries. From my experience, the scrambler rifle (properly used) hasn't got enough range and its damage profile is too extreme to properly damage armor.

A general response to anyone:
I do agree, Scrambler is a good weapon and is really particular, and also takes skills to use it properly. But there are also things that I can't really like. I never noticed this downside of the scrambler, since 1.2 more or less (with the Amarr Assault), but the proficiency nerf makes the damage profile way too extreme imo, making the scrambler an assist-machine.
This kind of damage profile might be pretty good for Laser rifle, but not for the scrambler both because you necessarily have to chew through armor in order to kill someone and because armor tanking is more effective HP wise. You're a frontliner, an assaulter or even a marksman, but you can't be effective in any of these because of the damage profile.

Holy sh*t a ScR buff thread lol!
It's not a "buff" but more a rebalance:
it's pretty good, yes. but almost useless against high HP armor suits. If changing the damage profile from -20 / 20 to -15/15 is a buff....
