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.
The charge shot is not the major problem. |

The charge shot is not the major problem. Well the tac AR has the same ROF as the SCR, but with higher damage, and no overheat, and no one is saying that it's OP. The tac AR does have more kick and dispersion, but I don't think that's enough to justify the wildly different perceptions of these weapons. It has to be the charge shot in my opinion.
Actually I suspect it would be OP if the scrambler wasnt overshadowing it.
But I dont want to shout wolf until theres actually a wolf there, its hard to tell right now (similar to the situation with Gunnlogi vs. Madruger, the Madruger is so dominant I cant even tell if the Gunnlogi is OP or not because its so rarely used) |

The difference between the Tac AR and ScR is hipfire dispersion. It's so much easier to apply damage in CQC with the ScR because of it.
I dunno man, Ive seen some ****. |
