The weapon will now be total trash on anything besides on Amarr assault. Newbies will be totally unable to kill with this weapon so no new ScR users will be popping up anytime soon.
I am glad that we could come up with a band aid to make sure the weapon is only viable after spending a few million SP. Typical CCP I suppose. Introduce huge skill bonuses on certain suits and then only balance around those bonuses effectively nulling anyone else. This is why we will never have a new player experience worth speaking of.
Buy more boosters if you want to be able to use anything besides an assault rifle.

Run a ScR on a new character and watch what happens. The thing was barely useful without being fully skilled as is and now is just going to be trash. I really don't care since I have both the weapon and the suit maxed out I am just sick and tired of seeing diversity for new players kicked in the nuts because CCP wants to base things on skills and then nerf it so that the only way it is viable is with those skills. Terrible design is terrible design.

You also realize this is more typical CCP bullshit of buffing shields through nerfing the ScR right?
I am glad to see we have come full circle back to the garbage of the past.

I am glad to see we have come full circle back to the garbage of the past. This community will never be happy. Someone is always gonna cry and get what they want. They will advocate their lives to get what they want. Yeah I complain but not to the extent to some others. Its always gonna go back and forth. But this time around they are making it so the weapons are racial specific and can be utilized best with paired racial suits (assaults).

I must admit that the scrambler nerf is really hard : overheating even faster, kick multiplied by FOUR and you're slow as fack when you charge it... I don't think it'll be good even on amarr assault lvl 5 anymore. We'll have to wait for Hotfix Giggle to have it buffed again.
Rest of the patch is great tho, the AR will finally be a good weapon in CQC with the gal assault and that is a great great thing !

This is only neutering the idea of being able to fit what you want. Forcing players to fit certain suits to run a weapon goes against all that is New Eden. Sure in Eve ships get great bonuses to weapons but those weapons are not 100% useless on every other suit.
We have also very much proven in the past that buffing one thing through nerfing another is just a vicious circle that leads to balance never being reached and FOTMs becoming the only option for new players who do not have the skill or SP to fight FOTM with anything besides FOTM.
Dumping this idea of buffing through nerfing was the best thing Rattati ever did but that is obviously making its way out the window. CCP does not care as long as it leads to selling more respecs and warbarge components.
It is no wonder this game is slowly burning to the ground.

It is a cycle I also thought we had gotten out of. I never had a huge problem with the scr but it got nerfed hard. I'm sure it'll get buffed.........and then nerf the ar.

The ScR in both variants will still be strong in it's intended purpose, especially on Amarr Suits where the heat build up is less of an issue, especially on the AScr. The ScR was never intended to work as walking around with a constant charge shot. It is, according to what I have seen / read, supposed to basically allow for two modes: One for assaulty shooty fun, and one for high precision shots, almost like a close-range laser sniper.
I use AScr on my Am Assault (lvl 5) and I don't think I've ever overheated it even when wildly firing an entire clip slightly to the left of some guy.
Also the charge shot feature is not going away, and that can still straight up kill more lightly armored scouts and shield tankers.
The curious feature about the AScR is the 15% damage buff we received a while ago so that weapon will still be an anomaly on the damage / range curve. This means that the AScR will still have a lot of value, even more so with the shield buff.

that AScr nerf is very small judging by the spreadsheet, i'm totally going to try the vanilla Scr after the hotfix

The little bit that I play lately sees very little ScR use just because I suck at tracking jumpers with it.
My problem is not with it getting nerfed but with it becoming completely built around players who have fully maxed the weapon and the suit. Making a weapon totally useless without millions of SP invested is bad for everyone that does not have that SP invested meaning that is one less weapon that new players have the chance to experiment with. We are already fairly short on diversity for new players and this only makes it worse.
I am also pretty sure that the nerf to the kick multiplier is ONLY because of modded controller use but it is hard to get into why I feel that way.
What it boils down to is we have a weapon getting almost completely cut off to new players because of high SP players spamming it and because of modded controller use which should not even exist. There is no one that wins in this scenario except for CCP who will collect a good deal of respec money from the low to mid level SP FOTM chasers.

No discussion that I saw but I did miss a bunch of the CPM threads because none of them were sticky so they were easily over looked.
Here is a link to the feedback thread for the hotfix.
Here is a direct link to the spreadsheet

I didn't notice it said 4x the kick.... are you ******* serious? that seems like an over nerf to me..... I understand tweaking one thing at a time to avoid making it underpowered but with the buff of the other rifles and the nerf of this one it is clear as day those other weapons will outclass it.
Reduced kick on Rail rifle....
and rof buff to AR's.....
At first I assumed you devs didn't play the game but I am one thousand percent sure you don't even touch a controller |

ScR was OP, the nerf was inevitable. I like the charge changes, it makes sense that only Amarr can truly use the weapon to its potential. Ever tried the Laser Rifle on another suit? Probably it'll be the same thing. |
