I love it, honestly it's like a mid range shotgun when charged.

It makes me feel like megaman.

Imperial Scrambler Rifle
Level 4 Proficiency

I love this weapon for how scary it is. I sit there and absorb bullets from a guy while he thinks he has the advantage since I'm not shooting at him.

What he doesn't realize is that I'm lining up a charge shot. If that doesn't one shot him, the next 4 or 5 in quick succession will.

They're alot of fun, especially with lvl4 proficiency. Charged shots OHK most all light frames, and some militia medium without even headshots.

I don't understand why you favour Flux grenades considering the SR's strength to shields and weakness against armor.

Despite the Imperial SR Max efficiency range being 48M I've downed ADV Med Caldaris with only two fully charged shots and a quick follow up or two at 60-70M, again without headshots. Although even at that range one to the head will nearly finish them.

So, you're clearly talking about a OP weapon. CCP Balance need to nerf this weapon immediatly.

EDITED:

"honestly it's like a mid range shotgun when charged. "

"the assault kinda reminds me of the lazer rifle from chromosome. accuracy"

"Most use a flux so that those 3-4 shots to take out shields go into depleting their armor in most case went your up against 3-4 ppl a flux gives you chance to kill them all nd survive whit about 20% armor left :)"

"It drops people so fast I still haven't gotten used to it."

"Charged shots OHK most all light frames, and some militia medium without even headshots."

"What he doesn't realize is that I'm lining up a charge shot. If that doesn't one shot him, the next 4 or 5 in quick succession will."

This, ladies and gentlement is called HYPOCRISY.

Then, the assault rifle is OP. My God, what a crazy world.

LMFAO! Go use a SR then a TAC AR then come back and tell me which is OP.

While OHK may be possible it requires SKILL and is a rare occurrence not a common outcome. Beyond that it's overheat function is extremely unforgiving.

The idea that you can determine a weapon to be OP based on a few people's comments about it and never actually trying it yourself is laughable at best.

I'm tired of kill people with TARs, so I can tell you the same. It's not OP if you suck. Don't confuse OP, with skill, with you playing like a parrow

If you question my skill to use either weapon my Caldari AR is at 3.1 K/D(Thanks TAC!), Heavy 4.3 and my Ammar SR is at 2.6.

are you really Loren Gallen?

Your precious weapons overheats faster than a fat ***** at a renaissance fair.

No,sir, I am not.I don't think I have a brother by that name,but what do I know?I'm just a clone that won't even live past 5 minutes.
Either that or I need to brush up on my lore.

I like the idea of it. The damage drop off coupled with a shockingly short optimum range and dispersion (but no dispersion reduction skill!!!) makes it easy to get 2 good shots to the head and then be unable to finish anyone off.

I call it the cheerleader gun. Kdr dropped a bit below 3 since I started with it, but I average 32 assists per game!

Currently, the Scrambler Rifle is the most balanced gun in the game.

Piece of crap, respeccing out of it ASAP.

We'll be making some adjustments to the rifle ranges in the near future. We're currently testing the Rail Rifle and Combat Rifle internally (the two missing archetypes). Within the assault rifle class the four weapon types will break down as follows:

Assault Rifle (Hybrid - Plasma) - short range
Combat Rifle (Projectile - Autocannon) - short-mid range
Scrambler Rifle (Laser - Pulse) - mid range
Rail Rifle (Hybrid - Railgun) - long range

Keep in mind though that long range for an assault rifle is not equivalent to long range for a sniper rifle, so while they will adhere to existing category definitions don't expect massive differences in the distances between these weapons
A lot of the original assault rifle variants (Breach, Burst, Tactical) were created to fill the gaps these newer weapons will fill and so mightGÇÖve felt out of place (not to mention we just plain made mistakes with some of them). The scrambler rifleGÇÖs optimal range will be increased and weGÇÖll be releasing an iteration of the Tactical Assault Rifle with a smaller clip and much wider hip-fire spread making it less effective in CQC. If that change alone does not prove enough we will walk the damage of the TAR down slowly. No big, sweeping changes this time.
