Its such a damn good weapon, I find the clip size too small to count on it as a primary weapon but as a quick switch hold out to save your ass against one enemy or finish off a couple wounded ones its amazing

Lv5 Op + Lv 5 Minmatar Assault = several thousand dmg potential in one clip. Forge Gunners be jealous.

Back when I ran dual scrambler pistols I found that it was the ammo capacity holding it back from being a true primary weapon, not the clip size.

For fun, I ran about 10 or so pub matches with two Militia Scrambler Pistols on a Militia Caldari medium frame.

My reaction was that of genuine fun. Laying out Heavies with 3 to 4 shots to the head is even more satisfying than blasting someone away from across the map with my FG.

I now am considering running an ADV medium suit with dual ADV Scrambler Pistols as my main fitting. Once I build up enough skill points, I will put my HMG/FG Heavy on hiatus. With that said, what are your thoughts on the SP? My opinion?

SP > SMG/Flaylock/AR

(The badassery of the reloading animation also adds to its appeal.)

Carthum Assault Scrambler pistol...

A Heavy player who also runs dual pistols?

You are my hero. Thanks for the link. I have nowhere near 2.5 mil to invest (I got my HMG proficiency to level 5 today just because), but I will consider your build for when I do have enough skill points saved up.

I am so anxious to try out a dual pistol build that I'm on the verge of screaming out "RESPEC!"

Also with my Commando suit I notice the passive bonus for reload speed applies to sidearms as well. It sounds silly, but this thread has got me considering doing a dual pistol commando fit. Since I already have the skills (well, may Scrambler Pistol Ops is only at 2) I will buy a few of these trial fits and come back here with feedback.

I'd like to see what results you'd come up with. From what small amount of matches I played, the dual pistols worked well with the assault suit.

I purposely veered from Scouts because they are squishier than ever and Heavy frames seem too slow to emulate the twitch FPS style I was gearing towards. If the commando works well with the pistol combo, then I'd like to see a little demo of it in action.

Tried it, it's terrible. The commando has better movement than a basic heavy but still not enough to make dual pistols viable. Enemies can easily break out of range of the pistol while still in range for their AR. The reload speed is faster but only marginally. may be worth it if you want to put it in one of the sidearm spots, but definitely not both.

Use a Minmater Scout suit to get a bonus to clip size.

It's nearing a week since I began experimenting with this build. Thus far, my experiences with the Scrambler Pistol have only gotten better.

Breach SP + Complex sidearm modifiers + Decent Amount of strafing + Headshot = Overkill

It doesn't matter what gear setups opponents have; the Breach will consistently drop reds with utmost ease. Two shots to the head is all you need.
