Been rocking the Viziam on an ADV Amarr to try and get more familiar with it and the apparent balance issues.

I've determined it's slightly too good, but I feel I have a solution. And the fact that it's proto doesn't really matter, because i've been facing proto squads every match.

One thing I've noticed is that with 2 complex precision enhancers, I was able to see lots of people around corners, and hold the charge shot until the exact moment they popped around the corner.... Fzing! Charged headshot followed by rapid burst to finish them off.

To me, the OP part of that is that I'm able to hold the charge forever with no penalty. While I'm holding down a shot waiting, I feel heat should slowly start building up. Making timing much more important.

Also, ammo was never, ever an issue. I can't think of a single time I've ran out of ammo with the non-assault ScR. Make a fully charged shot cost 5 bullets. This makes clip management harder, as well as overall ammo management harder.

I'm ok with the ScR being the most deadly, highest DPS of all the rifles, but if that's the case it also has to be the hardest to use.


TLDR

Balance the ScR in two easy steps.

1.) While holding a charge shot, have heat continually build up.
2.) Have a fully charged shot cost 5 bullets. Make ammo management a factor for this gun.
