...Keeps the Exotic handcannons at bay.
I am a weird player. I love scout rifles. I almost exclusively use scout rifles for my primary. In both PvP and PvE. On both characters (TITAN and warlock) I have ascended scouts of evey element.
-Vision of Confluence
-Fang of It Yut
-The Scholar (adept)
-Mida Multi Tool
This is home to me. Any situation is ready do go. I have 27,000 PvP kills with scouts.
Because i always have a scout, I only use shotguns for secondary. Scout + shotgun combos excellently. Found Verdict, and invective. (I'm no Felwinters matador scrub)
Some honorable mentions are Ghelions Demise, A1 RYL, and One/one synthesis. But let's be honest, all scouts are great. I even have an old green one that lets me pick up ammo when I shoot it.
Tell me your scout story

I have found my primary inventory filled with just different scout rifles - NL Shadow with FA and crowd control, gheleons demise on FA and third eye, Salvation state with explosive rounds and third eye. I'm working on a hygiea noblesse with rodeo and third eye. I use MIDA a lot. So my next is a one/one synth or a high road soldier with third eye and single string - closed thing to a legendary MIDA I hope. I wish they expanded the reforge inventory for scout rifles. It's weird that the scholar is the only one with reactive reload.... Besides FA and rodeo the first column to scouts have all the new weapon perks that are either better on secondaries or just useless.
