So I've noticed that dueling anyone with an auto rifle is a sure way to die. Scout rifle versus them work, but as is the rate of fire is hardly anything compared to the auto. On top of that versions are included with 44 shots and even extreme rof.
Yes if u have well placed shots and a target that's exposed for a time a scout can stand, but let's say, scout vs scout and auto vs auto. Two controls as I would put it, the scout battle will last longer than the auto battle. Especially iron banner players.
Guys I've been seeing several threads stating that certain "brands" of auto rifles just decimate any target terribly quick. Aka easy and no learning curve. How can u counter or even begin to think about it when u get ur shield down and headshotted in the same instance!?!
I really think that if auto rifles are gonna fast kills, that their recoil that should be noticeable more. Their bullet spread is literally like lazer beamz!!
Plz give bak thoughts!

12 RepliesIf you are in a close-to-mid-range, head-to-head duel with an auto rifle---and you aren't carrying one----you are dying because you made a tactical mistake. Not because the AR is over-powered. The AR is SUPPOSED to dominate at close range...and have an advantage at mid-range. The reason why (good) players have concerns about the AR is because the Shingen (and to a lesser extent the Cydonia) have very little recoil. Which makes them unrealistically accurate at LONG range. If you are running with a Scout Rifle, then you need to stay OUT of "duels" with players running with automatic rifles. You want to pull back to mid-to-long range, and look to FLANK your opponent. So that you get the drop on him...and put one or two shots on him before he can figure out where he's taking fire from. The Scout Rilfe is not for rushing around the map with ala CoD "quick scoping" or the Halo DMR. You're going to get handed your head that way. You want see this weapon as a mid-to-short-long-rangel SNIPER rifle. Sort of like the Longbow-DMR in Titanfall.
