I was actually testing an idea, a scrambler rifle (heavy) that shot approximately 5-7 shots in a very quick burst, but only had the same amount of shots in the clip, so needed a long reload after each one. It could put the hurt on anyone, but could not be rapid fired due to overheat.
It was kind of fun.

It was kind of fun. So... Like a big laser flashlight then? Because if that's what you're going for I give you The Batlight!
Part baseball bat, part flashlight. All Batlight.
Seriously though, maybe a heavy melee weapon isn't a bad idea.

It was kind of fun. Take that idea, but add more minmatar to it. 3 bursts of awesome with a small clip and a reasonable reload time. Wait....I think we have that gun already

This seems like it could also be the basis for a light Burst Scrambler Rifle variant, with rounds in the burst increasing with charge. Similarly, have you tried making a heavy Scrambler charge up, then fire a beam laser for X seconds based on charge? Also, 100% AV efficiency?
Reality is the original Rorschach.
Verily! So much for all that.

I take you having those type of ideas and testing them as a very good sign of progress. Having that said the scrambler rifle is for lack of a more accurate concept "too op" and it has been for a really long time, I would not like to meet his big brother. P.S. nerf that thing already.

So I'm not sure how the architecture is set up rattati... but is it not possible to run both a rail-rifle style spool-up alongside an amarr style weapons heat?
So have whatever you want the spool-up to be. Set the fire rate INSANELY high. Set the max heat value very low and the overheat sieze to whatever you want it to be, so that it's practically guaranteed to overheat once it gets its 'burst' off, but that just means you have to 'reset' after the (lets say .2s) overheat.

here is a way to mostly mimic that weapon you wanted rattati
make the heavy Scrambler weapon act like a rail rifle with a charge up of approx. 2.5 seconds. Give it a high full auto ROF, give it a large heat cost, give it a large amount of default damage per bullet, small clip size of 24-30, and very quick cooldown rates like the ion pistol (when it does not sieze up), give it long sieze duration (approx 10 seconds) and moderate sieze damage (approx. 100 hp damage). It might not increase in damage per bullet after every consecutive bullet is fired. It also does not have a duel function of either (charging up and firing burst of bullets) and (firing a burst of uncharged bullets). But it is similar. I think players would be happy with it. It mimics are high DPS burst weapon.

we just need a Heavy shield based AV. Gallente Plasma Forge or an Ammar Laser Forge would be nice. Laser/Scrambler probs be nice. Charge up and a big single shot to put the hurt of Pythons and Gunnlogis

what i would like to know is who is making it an whos the target an what effect it has on the targets stats. you cant just build a gun an give it random numbers as damage, you must be able to see the weapons, suits an gear as all one, you must think of the game like a real world an put your self in the seat of a real weapons builder, you must ask what is it like on the battle field an what problems a weapon or suit might face. like mobility, power use,how much cpu use, an ammo max an use , what the suit it was made to beat, the suite that counters it , an the suite that is so. you must ask things like what is the ammo type, the damage type , what each stat is doing to both counter an aid the weapon as well as the suit. only then when you see it all like that then balance will be found. |

What the ever living bejeezuz are you talking about? He was testing a concept weapon, not invalidating balance concerns.

Specifically he was trying to get firing mechanics to work properly for the weapon he wants to make. Charged burst fire from what it sounds like.

take a RR model, make it approximate the bolt pistol in function and make it a Cal heavy. US SOF uses the mk46 use it as a reference and it's characteristics as opposed to a RL hmg.

TBH I think all races should have a heavy AI and AV weapon. A twin-linked heavy rail weapon could work pretty well for caldari.
Give it a big magazine and only a moderate RoF, have its targeting reticule be something like ( o o ) when moving but as you stand still (or 'aim' it) the individual rails align so it goes like (o o) to (oo), maybe something like 230-240dps per rail. This allows it to be used at long range without being 'OP' because it's likely only hitting with one rail (but it has the magazine to do it ALL DAY LONG) but as targets get closer it can bring that second rail into play causing it to do substantially more DPS.

Public Service Announcement for any Sentinels reading this thread
The Scout community has long had The Barbershop thread in the Locker Room forum to discuss Scout balancing and other Scout issues internally. Rattati has taken to using The Barbershop as a focus group when he is trying to get feedback on Scout balancing ideas.
Now we Sentinels have our own hangout, called The Bastion. If you consider yourself a Sentinel, then drop by The Bastion and let us know what Sentinel suits you run so we can add you to the Sentinel Registry. The Bastion is a great place to talk about Heavy weapons with other Sentinels and to discus the prose and cons of various fits, etc.
Rattati has already started using The Bastion as a Sentinel Focus group, and posts there when he is making a change effecting Sentinels.
Hand/Eye coordination cannot be taught. For everything else there is the Learning Coalition.

I can appreciate the constraints that you and your team face in regards to resource allocation, so please just let me throw this out.
Since the Caldari are alinged with the Ammar would it be lore friendly to take the forge model and make it into a shot gun of sorts? a lot of small plasma particles being realeased in burst.
at your ZERO'd range these plasma particles would concentrate and give maximum damage, then after the zero point start to spread again, the spread pattern is an X with the crossing being your zero'd point.
since maximum damage is a distant point, the damage profile up close would be more like " Bird shot" .
Seize it at 3 bursts, but allow melee?
the blast animation should be insane!
