I'm really glad to know that CCP tried to do everything they could to make the new weapons as good as they could. It's even better to know they succeeded. The Scrambler Rifle is a true marksman's weapon, despite not havin much range. It requires you to make each shot count and rewards you handsomely for it. I honestly dont even want racial variants for fear that one may accidentally trigger a nerf witch hunt on the entire weapon class.

On that note, PLEASE do not touch it CCP. Not for a very long time. As time goes on, people will become better with the SR and I believe it will become the benchmark of a skilled player, where mastery of the charge shot will garner one and two hit kills. The AR people will NOT like that and WILL cry for the nerf hammer. For once, do not let the QQers win.

I love the SR.

A few posts in here about heat build up and damage buffs but I really think if anything was buffed this weapon would be OP (and so consequently UP).

The operation bonus is lame; CCP should make the charge time equal to that of operation 5, and change the effect of the operation skill to reduce cool-down time when the gun overheats (but not feedback damage).

I would like to see the bezel on the scope slimmed down, and have the dot jump out more when its on a target.

My only gripe with the SR is that it's range is limited. I imagine this is exaggerated by a lack of proper damage drop off, and that TARs are not properly balanced.

From up close and if you can aim through the iron sigh effectively, then yes.
I've been killed by scrambler pistols twice in my entire life in this game. lol
