It's an awesome weapon, but much trickier to master than the AR.

For my part, I've only used the charge SCAR; it seems to work best at range using a single fully charged shot to take down shields, followed by a quick 2-3 shots to finish off the target. Miss or shoot one too many times and you'll burn yourself in the latter case and/or be useless for 5 seconds while your weapon cools. I've found it tricky to balance the use of the SCAR with my Scrambler pistol, as you can't swap if you overheat, especially in closer combat situations where the sidearm would actually be useful.

Overall, it's a weapon that requires a great deal of micromanagement; even more than the Laser Rifle.

Range clocks in at a max of 85 meters (for advanced).

Yes, in my opinion I think the heat build up for the normal shots should be lowered a bit it is very hard to use when it comes to defending yourself, the semi is more for a suppressive type of gameplay.

Actually I find it exceptional for killing. The Assault SCAR would be better for suppression due to the low damage and full auto (23/700 for ADV if I remember right).

I get killed when trying to line up shots when using the Semi-Auto variant.
