Yes, one that uses heatsinks to break target locks.I did say PvE. Are you an NPC?
I'm one of those who swear by them- for PvP at least.
They only work when shields are dropped, but you can target modules. For example if you target someone's FSD with multiple lasers scramble equipped my experience has been it always works. Useful if you're in a wing.
Alternatively if they helpfully forget to equip TLB weapons you can target their shield generator and it never comes back up.
They don't stack but each laser gets a chance of a malfunction, so multiple small weapons are a good choice.
Having said that I've not been in game for a while, so there may have been an update more recently

That’s interesting, so you’ve had consistent luck targeting specific modules?
I’ve not tried it like that because I didn’t believe it worked this way.
Think I’ll have to test this.

Or just one burst laser. A rapid fire pulse works great also. Freeing up other hardpoints.
And double spanking with an SS pulse disruptor?
Good for making npcs drop cargo.. situational.

Absolutely love Scramble Spectrum and put 1 on any build that uses a Pulse or Burst Laser.
Nothing like seeing a ship you're dogfighting with suddenly stop pulling a loop and just go drifting on a straight & helpless vector -- easy pickin's!
On ships with 2 small slots in addition to main guns (ex: Corvette, Anaconda, Mamba, etc...) I'll put one small burst laser with Scramble Spectrum and one small multicannon with Corrosive Shells and switch fire groups to include those with the rest when the enemy's shields have gone down. My hull strike bonus combo.

Ok this thread has got me thinking now. Anyone, tried Scramble Spectrum on a CytoScrambler?
Given that this is currently a shield only weapon, would Scramble not give it a reason to actually be used against hull (although I already run an MC with corrosive to make it somewhat useful) ?
I've got a PVE piracy build where I've a pair of Cytos and an FSD interrupt missile launcher. Scramble might just fill in the gap between FSD reboots.
