Is the issue here still remaining, that those two shots...full auto single, and scattershot have no real purpose?
Rapid Fire
What if, Rapid Fire is a fast firing attack, with a good amount of action drain, though it has the chance to hit a target 3 times in a row? I imagine that the accuracy of this shot(comparing to starwars 'real life'is in general rather low...but running targets have a good chance getting hit in the process.
So, Rapid Fire shoots 5 visual shots ofa bit lesspower then of a legshot, with decreased general accuracy.
The shot will calculate 3 hits, with each a 50% chance of hitting.
The shot has no penalty against moving targets, or when moving yourself when shooting.
Scatter shot
the same concept as Rapid Fire, though it has no accuracy penalty in general, but a heavy one when moving....or shooting moving targets.
Good idea?

You still have full auto single? I am impressed, i thought the ability was lost during CU.
Can you please explain which ability you're actually refering to, then we can perhaps say more...

Gaaah...I can't remember wich one it exactly was, I picked it off the skill builder...it had something with Full auto in it..and it was a blue coloured icon. (Not the area attack one)

Scatter Shot lost its purpose with the last minute change to the HAM system.....just not a high enough priority to be fixed yet.
Rapid Fire is not firing fast as it should and has been reported as not working.....wasn't high on the priority list but with the Suppression Fire fix it is moving to the top quickly.

Talk of 5 laser bolts vs 3 laser blots makes my ears bleed.

Rapid Fire seemed to be hitting for about the same damage per hitas Aimed Shot only w/ twice as many hits per action for me last night, so maybe rapid fire is fixed as well?
