Its because shield modules are roughly equal to HALF the HP values of armor modules point for point, this combined with the scramblers massive damage profile granting it about 900dps against shields (with modded controller, human input is still an insane 600or so dps)
since shields are roughly worth half of armor HP for HP you can pretty much just double the DPS of every weapon against shields to calculate just how effective shields are in compairison to armor leaving sometimes HUGE gaps in weapon efficiancies from shields to armor.
this makes shields ALWAYS feel weak in compairison to armor because you simply get 2x the amount of armor than you do shields making it feel as though every weapon in the game is 2x effective against shields then armor.
its not that the scrambler is OP, is that shields just dont provide nearly enough HP to balance out the massive HP advantage that armor currently has.
now can we stop with the nerf scrambler threads please? and instead replace them with "buff shields" threads?

lol at the scrambler apologists forgetting that armor mods give an effective HP ratio of 2 to 1 against shields...
besically to get effective dropsuit HP in this case you basically DOUBLE the DPS of the scrambler to get its %of HP DPS rahter than its hitpoint DPS, making it twice as powerful in compairison.
this actually applies to any weapon against shields meaning EVERY weapon is OP against shields as its effectivee DPS is more than double what its effective DPS is against armor.
basically its a weighted calculation where shield HP and armor HP arnt concidered equal in terms of dps calculations and instead armor HP counts for 2x the value of shield HP (the actuall number is slightly above im just to lazy to make a spreadsheet right now)
