So I've been using the Imperial Scrambler Rifle for a bit now with some damage mods (currently running enhanced damage mods but will be complex soon) and that thing hits like a freight train - question is, with continued speccing into SCR Proficiency therefore increasing the damage, does the Carthum (full auto proto SCR) become viable at any point?
Has anyone used both and not just one or the other to provide some insight on this before I invest in hundreds of Carthums.
Thanks. |

the SR's need a range buff so they actually out range the blaster rifles we're using.
I refuse to use anything non Amarr and I'm definitely not going to use the AR/TARs. |

First off it is "role play" so get it straight, second off, the SCR are viable weapons in capable hands but it sounds like you're in the CoD state of mind if you think that not playing with ARs is crippling yourself when there are many other weapon choices in DUST.
Please just move along, your contributions are no longer needed in this thread. |

Please go change your diaper, because you apparently soiled it.
You're no different than those in BF3 who use the M16A3 because it is the "best weapon" foregoing any diversity in weapon selection just because you feel the need to pad your K/D as much as possible.

Thanks. Yeah it is already very viable! i switched back and forth between the guns when they first came out and find that the imperial is a good weapon but tends to fail in drawn out gunfights while the carthum is pretty much made for long gunfights with its extra large clip size making it a much better clutch weapon
I was thinking of using the Carthum for that very reason, but the dispersion on the auto SCRs is just so bad. |

I do use the Amarr Assault suit, but even with SCR at V and SCR Proficiency at I, it overheats after six shots even though it seriously hits like a train.

That makes a lot of sense actually.
I'll make a new fitting then.
Amarr Assault
2 Enhanced Shield Extenders
1 Enhanced Shield Regulator
1 Kinetic Catalyzer
Locus Grenades (to help take chunks out of armor)
Carthum SCR
Scrambler Pistol |
