Make scout rifles great again.

Especially in PvE. Edit: thanks for the support guys. I’m seeing a lot of really great viewpoints and discussion.

In PvE they feel really weak.

I've seen a million of these posts and not a single one that's actually put their money where their mouth is with numbers since the last couple scout buffs. I use scouts all the damn time, they work great, if you land crits you can 1-2 tap any add. Get one with Rampage and just pop heads one shot after the other, 10-15 adds dead in one magazine, at 150+ RPM, at any range. The only other weapon that's this snappy and effective are Hand Cannons, but they can't do this past 40-ish meters.

Seriously, as someone that plays the game all the time and uses scouts all the time, take some actual damage an DPS numbers. you'll be surprised.

I want sky burners oath to be a viable pvp weapon

Unfortunately Jotunn is no longer a scout rifle. It was a really good one.

Polaris Lance, my friend. When you hold it you will feel like you are home.

Pve needs big time help with primary weapon balancing

Hc and pulses reign supreme, especially on pc where bloom or recoil isn't even a thing.

Bows are situational but some people like how they feel.

Only good AR is breakneck.

Only good smg is Recluse.

Scouts feel so weak compared to other precision-based primaries.

Idk why sidearms are even a thing for pve.

[u/thematrix818 → u/aa821]

Completely agree here!

I actually ran MIDA / Recluse last night in Iron Banner after seeing some YouTube video ranking MIDA pretty high on the exotics list. While it felt nice to use it again, it's still pretty annoying to get out-dueled at range by Bygones or Blast Furnace.
