Title. Discuss. I don't expect scouts to out dps hand cannons, I expect them to be competent at ranges the hand cannons are not. VOC not withstanding. Pulse rifles need a slightly higher crit modifier or better stability across the board so my gun isn't jumping like a Jack Russel Terrier on speed when ever i breathe near the trigger, and so the stability upgrade isn't vital to the point of trivializing other upgrades in the tree.
