If people don't want to give plasma weaponry a bonus that counters their weakness (like lasers and projectiles get...) then we might as well buff the hell out of the bonus we actually do have. The problem here it that ARs don't have a serious weakness like ScRs or CRs do. They're just way too jack of all trades and bland. They ought to be shaken up with a real weakness/strength combo...
How can you mitigate a weakness that isn't there?

Have you even tried a gal assault and felt the kick reduction was enough when using a tactical plasma rifle? Not trying to be a git here but even on a scout suit the kick doesn't seem like much of an issue, although i suppose it depends on the rate at which R1 is triggered. The thing i'd want most on the TAR is reduced falloff/increased range. Increase the range by any noticeable amount and it would outrange the ScR. No.

Oh, by the by, IT'S CALLED THE ASSAULT RIFLE! YOU DON'T HAVE TO YELL and it's an assault plasma rifle. Just saying assault rifles could mean one of many things: assault combat rifle; assault scrambler rifle; assault rail rifle; assault plasma rifle; those are all assault rifles. Actually none of the rifles in this game are tecnically assault rifles but the Scrambler Rifle.
All the "Assault Variant" rifles are actually auto-rifles, along with their Breach AR and Rail Rifle. The TacAR is a battle rifle. The CR and Burst AR are... I don't really know. There isn't real world classification of rifles that are ONLY burst fire.
"Assault Rifles" are selective fire rifles using intermediate sized rounds with detachable magazines. Only the ScR meets these requirements.

ITT: Scout cry that they aren't the best killy-suits anymore and that the primary slayer role has been given to Assaults, which is working as intended.

Here's a much more likely narrative: When Scouts were OP, they proposed to nerf themselves. Now that Assaults OP, they propose to buff themselves.
No. First of all, Assaults aren't OP. More like..
"Assault are now happy that they are the primary slayers, as they should be, and they are now striving for racial balance for themselves, but definitely don't want to pass the reigns back to Scouts."
"Some scouts are buttmad that the actual role of Scouting isn't slaying, but rather, recon. They yearn for the days of shotguns controlling the battlefield to return once more, and are willing to cry for Assault nerfs to get their wish, as they believe that they should be able to outslay Assaults."
