xavier zor Second-Nature Negative-Feedback 1	Posted - 2015.07.16 02:05:00 - [1] - Quote Scrambler still 'OP' (as many say)? Strafing game still working? I don't think the scrambler rifle is overpowered, it is in a good spot. However shields really aren't in a good spot. Been pondering over whether or not to skill into cal assaults, i have used one before and, well...i rarely used it. KingThunderBolt fail montage Dreis ShadowWeaver is a big noob

Scrambler's damage to shield's actually causes over damage to armor, if you take an SCR to a gallente with 600+ armor, your gonna do a lot of damage, because his shield's are active, if you flux them before hand, the SCR becomes balanced against armor. (In other word's, it's better to carry a flux nade, for yourself, in case you meet a scrambler user). This is because as stated above, the damage to shield's, doesn't simply "Break the Shield" It transfer's over remaining damage to armor without deduction because the damage was already dealt, so if you deal, say 400+ damage to shield, you'll be doing whatever remain's of the damage that's left. That's why the SCR is so OP. (And yes it's been tested, in fact, you can ask people in the State Task Force, they tested the above, and found that it can deal tremendous amount's of damage to shield) As for Shield's, cal assault's aren't in a good place, your better off going Cal Sentinel if you want a shield tanky suit. When there is light, shadow's lurk and fear reign's... Yet by the blade of knight's, mankind, was given hope.

Don't use this in CQC, you won't ever win, unless your enemies a terrible shot, or using the Assault SMG. When there is light, shadow's lurk and fear reign's...

Alena Ventrallis Commando Perkone Caldari State 3	Posted - 2015.07.16 06:15:00 - [23] - Quote They are the worst of the assault suits, but that does not necessarily mean they are bad. Once CCP switches their bonus to a charge time/kick reduction, they will be in a good place. Over thinking, over analyzing separates the body from the mind.

I'm sick and tired of scrubs exaggerating how under powered the Cal Assault is. As if you are going 1/19 every match and can't win a 1v1 against militia. But somehow, once you field an armor suit, you're constantly dropping 50 bombs and slaying in 1v3s. Yeah right. Y-axis sensitivity: 100%
Kinky Fat Bastard OMFGZOMBIESRUN 44	Posted - 2015.07.16 13:57:00 - [26] - Quote Apex cal assault Throw away the 3 shield mods, fit krins DMG mods. Replace federation RR with militia ARR Fit a comp ferro, ADV ferro and basic reactive in the lows.

You might aswell commit suicide when you encounter anything that looks like it belongs to the amarr. Rudimentary Mercs of scrubs and incompetence. You touch my mind, fumbling in Ignorance, incapable of understanding.

Except then you'd see a lot more Armor fit + RR mixes out there, this need's to be reduced, because every armor fit and their mother is floating to the damn thing, reducing the kick per level on caldari assault (or it could be a general caldari skill for heavy, medium, and light across the board) and increasing the kick of the railgun weapon's is the only way to reduce armor fit's using the RR, if this EVE's logic/lore mean's anything, then Caldari would be the best at using Rail gun technology, and from what I heard, Gallente would receive a slight bonus as well, this isn't translated well at all, which is why Cal's are failing so hard atm, they have nothing special, other than being the worst race in FPS history.
