I'm having problems with this weapon.
1. Fighting at range is difficult due to the absurd kick
2. Charge Shots followed by 5 or so regular shots is killing me in close quarters and fails to kill any lightly armor tanked suit at a distance.
3. The heat build up is crazy. I can't manage it well as I am only able to engage one person at a time before the weapon explodes in my face. ARRs and even TacARs at least allow me to keep fighting without worrying about dying from a Starter Fit because my weapon overheated.
These are my problems. Is there a way to correct them? |

All of these problems can be solved by learning more about the mechanics of the ScR and the game in general. But I can give you some tips and some stuff that you need to keep in mind.
1. The ScR is a mid-long range weapon, use it to your advantage and ride the kick. By riding the kick I mean start by aiming chest shots and let the kick ride it to the head. If you can't fight it, flow with it.
If you want CQC, I would suggest using the AScR
2. Keep in mind that you are using a ScR which is a laser weapon. They do (IIRC) +20% to shields but -20% to armour in terms of damage. So going toe to toe with an armour tanker is not the best unless you know how to control your kick properly.
3. By the sounds if this, I have to ask, have you skilled into Amarr Assault and are you using Amarr assault? At least I think it's assault that reduces heat build up...
Anyway whatever it is, use that suit to use that heat build up reduction skill, this can help you out a lot with your overheating problems.

I would honestly recommend you don't use the SCR without the Amarr assault. Have you considered trying the TAR instead? It handles in a similar fashion but doesn't have a draconian overheat.

I find that using the assault scrambler rifle solves most if not all of the problems you're having with it |

Laser weaponry has been suboptimal on non Amarr (even then specific Amarr suits) for quite some time.
However people seem to have been focused on nerfing its capability with AmAss and totally forgetting about its use on other suits. |

It totally depends on your skills but I recommend combining it with the Scrambler Pistol which will give you a couple options.
Open with the ScP for a quick knockdown of shields followed by a number of partially charged shots which will go through armor easily without you having to worry about over heat thanks to no full charge shot and cool down time as you partially chrage your next shot.
Open with a charge shot to knock out shields and then go for a ScP headshot to close out the fight.
Its kind of sad that scrambler rifles have been reduced to having to use a sidearm at the same time to make them viable. |

I recommend using the Assault variant, because CCP does not know how to balance the normal Scrambler.
But if you like the DMR nature of the normal one, try for the Tactical AR. That one is balance reasonably well, and does not necessitate millions of SP to make it function like a decent weapon.

They got nerfed to oblivion last hotfix. Only viable on an amarr Assault/Commando. Useless on anything else.

In case you read this and are confused because you are aware that the commando bonus is actually pretty neat.
Context: Blaziken has been crying about his Amarr commando not being good enough recently and making repeated proposals for it to be megabuffed.

Firstly skill into the Amarr Assault. Secondly, don't use the charge shot; it sucks now. Git gud at spamming.

Thanks for the advice everyone. I guess the weapon is not worth picking up if I don't have Amarr Assaults skilled. It seems like an interesting weapon, the charge and it being a semi-auto, but from a balance point of view, it seems underwhelming.
Rail Rifles, Combat Rifles, and even Assault Rifles are easier to use because they're more manageable in the sense that they don't fight back against the user. Guess I'll stick to ARRs. They're good at everything and the kick is neglible if one is smart and uses it in bursts. |

The Cal Assault gets a Rr/ARR kick/recoil reduction bonus. Just saying.
