Hey, remember the last person to write a thread on how good scrambler pistols are? You do? When's the last time they wrote anything?
Recant what you have said! Deny the very existence of scrambler pistols! Do not go 'missing' like the others before you!

Scramblers are a true skill weapon- to add to that, the scrambler pistol operation skill is probably the most useful skill in the game- it gives you another round in the clip every level.
If someone did that well with them, clearly they have excellent aim. |

I run a scrambler as my primary along with a swarm. I can tell you from experiance that they are very good. I have lvl 3 pistols, with all side arm skills lvl 3. I average 7/3 not including kills from vehicles, but I'm no where near 41/5 good. I can't even begin to describe how good it feels to 1 shot someone with it there is that little delay between you shooting them and them getting hit with the bonus damage, it's just enough time to look them in the eyes and smile. ![Twisted](https://forums.dust514.com/Images/Emoticons/ccp_twisted.png) |

The one's that actually have skill think the gods themselves shouldn't be enough to kill them. CCP this is how you fix this problem. Stop eating around the bush and just make them all Immortal and have them restricted to a game mode that only Heavies can play in and just have them fight themselves all day, problem solved! YOU ARE WELCOME!
Kinky.
In all seriousness, the scrambler pistol is awesome, it just takes someone with more than half a working brain to do well with it is all. I'm still speccing up in my scrambler pistol tree, but even the basic one is pretty wicked when used correctly. |

ur missing the point, bro. he's right no weapon should have a bigger headshot bonus than a railgun sniper rifle and 450% if thats true is redonkulous. it begs to be exploited. |

Exploited how? By shooting you in the head in CQC? Good luck with that bro. People talking like if landing headshots with a scrambler is easy... SMH |

Consider this: A sniper rifle can be shot from across the map to hit a guy. There's very little risk from heavies, assaults, or logis. Snipers are a different issue. To use a scrambler pistol, though, you need to be, at most, at medium range. Chances are that your target has seen you, too. To get a headshot on a guy who's moving around and jumping around is quite impressive.
And if you can manage to sneak up on a heavy and headshot him, well, that's his fault for not being supported by his team. Teamwork is OP. |

It's not as OP as it sounds.
That 450% damage still only barely tops the damage a Sniper is dealing on a headshot. |

Fine then buff the SR headshot bonus to 450%, just leave the garbage Scrambler Pistol alone, it is garbage enough as it is.
Any changes to the negative for it and it would just be a worthless waste of ISK/AUR, anyone considering using one should just leave them be, they're truly not worth it. |

SP's aren't garbage. They're fun.
And... No to the SR buff. That would be ridiculous. Headshot a proto heavy with the militia sniper rifle. Or anything, really. |

Scramblers are garbage, no one should use them.
TBH, I agree with you about the SR buff, I'm just of the opinion that the SR buff would be preferable to a Scrambler nerf.
They're garbage enough already, no point in taking the only positive away from them. |

I have fun with my scrambler pistol. I recently switched from my toxin SMG... I rarely use my sidearm, but I sometimes enjoy sneaking up on someone trying to cap a point, take my time, and headshot them. Instakill, no downsides. |

Breach Scrambler 115 HP
Weaponry lvl 5 +10% Damage Mod +10%
115 * 1.21 = 139 HP
450% head shot bonus = 626 HP
2 Head Shots = Dead Heavy, Dead anything.
Recall that Head Shots will kill any Merc faster and with less total damage than Body Shots. The difference is unknown although it might only appear that way based on the various multipliers to the head. Even Large Rail Gun Turrets get 195% to the head for example. |

no smart guy they should be lowered because the headshot mod is excessive. any idiot can see that. sniper rifle headshot mod 200% railgun turret headshot mod 195% scrambler pistol headshot mod 450%???? please explain that. does it shoot black holes or something??? |

It makes the Pistol a viable weapon in skilled hands, instead of a waste of space on a fitting. |
