Deadly Goliath Omega Warlords 66	Posted - 2015.05.26 22:08:00 - [1] - Quote So there have been a lot of people saying that the Scrambler Rifle needs to be nerfed and there have been a lotof people saying it is balanced, and its quite funny how the people that say it is balanced are the ones who use it It is pretty obvious that it is stronger than other weapons due to the high damage combined with the high rate of fire. But what bothers me the most is that it isn't only good against shield but it can take 1100 armor out with a few shots, even tho it is only doing 80% of its potential damage! This is clearly not balanced. In my opinion it can be balanced with other weapons by simply reducing the damage, although there are probably other, better ways of balancing it, anyways this is just my opinion and I do run a Caldari Assault and my opinion can be a little bit biased, but I do also like to run a Heavy with 1100, and when that gets shot down in 0.5 seconds by a Standard Scrambler Rifle it bothers me. I'll whip ya head boy

But since the ScR has a comparatively higher risk factor than most rifles, people tend to get defensive if it gets a nerf. It's getting a dps nerf as said by CCP Raticate so don't worry you won't be killed by ScR as much anymore. The Plasma rifles on the other hand though....... Click me

Scheneighnay McBob Tribal Liberation Force Paramilitary 6	Posted - 2015.05.26 22:41:00 - [14] - Quote What's always bothered me is it's a long-range weapon with a high RoF. I'm a BIG fan of semi-atuomatic weapons, particularly rifles (my minmatar pride won't allow me to use scrambler rifles anymore), but tactical ARs and scrambler rifles just don't do it right. Sniper rifles are pretty good with the recoil and RoF IMO, I would love to see a shorter range weapon similar to the sniper rifle, with a less overwhelming optic. Maybe I'll throw a tac AR on my logi suits and see how it turns out, after they're changed. Aloha snackbar

I don't know man you tell me, why are they so much ScR running around and no TARs? 1. I run TAR more than ScR. However, that really doesn't matter because its an anecdote. 2. ScR has a charge shot. TAR doesn't. Also TAR has more ADS kick, which kind of defeats the purpose of it being better at range. All the ScR needs is a small overheat after a charge shot, like the Ion pistol. In total agreement with True on that point. Whirly gun make much thunder! - Victor

I don't know man you tell me, why are they so much ScR running around and no TARs? Charge shot, plus its racial assault actually has a bonus that makes the weapon better, while the TAR has neither. Anyone who says ScR destroys armor too quick has never used one. The TAR is a much better weapon overall, even though it will lose out in 1v1 most times against a ScR.

Its great against shield ill give it that, but gave you consider that most of the dust population like there super fast min assaults and that the best way to kill them is a scrambler. Seriously if there was no scrambler min assaults would be declared op already . Certainly the AR doesn't kill them quick enough, so we have a fast spamming shield weapon for those strafing (kbam) doughbags General limited: warming failure to pay, may lead to death,massive amount of pain or even lose of family.

nelo kazuma Ecce Initio RLC. RUST415 226	Posted - 2015.05.27 01:20:00 - [38] - Quote So many people have said its balanced when its obviously not. Fact is its supposed to be the alpha shield weapon polar opposite to rr in profile. For it to be doing more armor dmg than any weapon is a joke. How ccp lets this continue and buff other weapons befor dealing with this is pitiful. on a brighter note when it gets nerfed and it will I hope that its not overdone but to a fair understandable point. Next weapon in line is combat rifle for same issue ridiculous fire rate that makes its assault variant like the ascr useless. It will be funny to see how many abandon it n whine on forums.

Pretty sure True just proved this statement wrong (with math) less than a page ago. Do these people not read (or arithmetic,) or do they just enjoy spouting nonsense? If someone can provide me with the correct formula for damage modification I'll do comparisons of all existing weapons. That being said only two races of the four have Tactical Rifles thus comparing them to other rifle variations is pointless. However in terms of the two tactical weapons I think they both roughly have the same capabilities for the most part. I count the Burst CR as a "tactical" variant. It is semi auto and has a scope. IMO the RR is the only rifle without a tactical variant. That being said, they all perform about equally. I use the CR for most pubs because "armor meta," the TAR for when there is a good mix of suits on the field, and the ScR for scout spam and that one occasional caldari that peeves me off.

At this point while I acknowledge the ScR needs alteration the approach of the general community is more akin to a witch hunt than reasonable discussion or constructive feedback.

But what bothers me the most is that it isn't only good against shield but it can take 1100 armor out with a few shots, even tho it is only doing 80% of its potential damage! This is clearly not balanced. In my opinion it can be balanced with other weapons by simply reducing the damage, although there are probably other, better ways of balancing it, anyways this is just my opinion and I do run a Caldari Assault and my opinion can be a little bit biased, but I do also like to run a Heavy with 1100, and when that gets shot down in 0.5 seconds by a Standard Scrambler Rifle it bothers me. I have sometimes games where my team gets stomped hard by a strong proto team. So I need a strong weapon to take out these guys as fast as possible. I use either a shotgun for that or a scrambler rifle (depends on map and framerate, cause the SCR is total trash on low fps games). I can overcome enemies with it which I normally would be not able to bring down....which is good in my book. But I use it on a gal scout and you really have to watch out not to overheat that thing ( so you can't take on two guys at the same time, so you have to pick targets carefully). BUT this weapon is absurdly op on amarr Assaults... So in conclusion I hope CCP don't fucks this weapon up without nerfing it too hard on non amarr assaults. Maybe the Amarr assault bonus should be changed ( but this would also affect other weapons I don't consider op...Lasers which would be bad ) 'LR4-Trading' Protester
deezy dabest 2	Posted - 2015.05.27 16:22:00 - [48] - Quote Do not fear soon the scrambler will be 100% useless to anyone not wearing an Amarr assault. Probably only decent even with the bonuses applied. Those of you that want a useful bonus on your assault suit just remember that this is what happens. Only a level 5 assault user can make it through an armor heavy like people complain about it. Now that the weapon will be balanced based on millions of SP invested in both the weapon and the suit required to use it you shield suits are plenty safe. Have fun whining about the next thing that kills you.

I think the Charge Shot is the biggest difference, and why people have a hard time agreeing with your math (excluding those who just enjoy disagreement). The way you calculated the DPS of the Tactical AR was fine because there isn't a charge shot. Those numbers accurately reflect how people use the weapon. However, I think that if you factor in a charge shot as the first shot into the DPS calculations, you'll get more inflated (and more accurate to in-game usage) numbers for the scrambler rifle's DPS. Although I'm sure the Tac Ar has a higher DPS than a charged scrambler rifle over a long period of time, that time interval is longer than the TTK, so it's not very useful. Because the overheat doesn't really matter for the majority of fights that an AmAssault gets into, I think that they pack a much higher DPS per fight than what your calculations suggest (I agree with your math). TL;DR - Re-do the calculations for the Scrambler Rifle DPS assuming the first shot is a charged shot followed up by regular shot and see how that compares to the Tac Ar to more accurately model how the two weapons are used in game I got enemies, got a lot of enemies , got a lot of people tryna drain me of this energy

Rather than allow the charged shot followed by rapid fire rounds why not have it function with a 1-2 second weapons cooling animation like the Ion Pistol. Lets ScR keep the charge as a tactical option while not allowing it to apply both its alpha and DPS. Just one or the other. "Crush all who complain!" `- Arkena Wyrnspire`

The real issue with the charge shot is that you can hold a charge, so when someone turns the corner you already have 2-3 shots worth of damage waiting. If you couldn't hold the charge, the DPS would be very little in comparison to the TAR, or even firing normally.

There's nothing wrong as I see it with holding the charge, it's almost necessary to get full value out of the shot. However I know you personally favour a "no hold" approach to balancing it. My preferred manner is to see it have a seizure animation post shot preventing it from coupling alpha with DPS. Separating the charged shot into a viable but tactical fire mode that has its own individual draw back. Kage made a thread about this. Post you opinion in it as well!

At 100% accuracy, yes, but the Scrambler Rifle just seems to hit more, I don't know? "the Scrambler Rifle just seems to hit more"...... ......is a logical fallacy known as "anecdote". I don't know man you tell me, why are they so much ScR running around and no TARs? Because the TAR is just an imitation of the ScR. I don't actually know, perhaps it's the charg? TAC AR has kick, ScR does not. Charge is pretty nice too. It's nice to see the two heavy hitters from the old days back on top, been running alot of GEK's & CRW's again. Evening Boys, Hows the water?

I'll take your word on the DPS dip, but the DPS that it does apply is very front-loaded. With True's numbers, I think that dealing 900 damage within the first 0.5 seconds of the engagement is more powerful than 1100 damage over a full second, because no other weapon can match that kind of DPS over the range that the ScR can. @True: I know, and liked, your suggestion. I would be fine with a small seize up - it would change the charge shot from a CQC option to a long range engagement starter, where you are closing in on an enemy you have flanked or something.

Its great against shield ill give it that, but gave you consider that most of the dust population like there super fast min assaults and that the best way to kill them is a scrambler. Seriously if there was no scrambler min assaults would be declared op already . Certainly the AR doesn't kill them quick enough, so we have a fast spamming shield weapon for those strafing (kbam) doughbags lol what is wrong with you....i down a heavy in 2 seconds with a scrambler rifle but overheat afterwards. 1v1 this gun wins 100% of the time. 2v1, this gun gets you killed...by the time you switch to your sidearm the player has done 1+second of damage to you with is probably 500....it is balanced, but the TAR needs no kick to it like the bolt pistol (fire, it centers back to original position) xavier zor's alt xavier zor
