Got it from Legendary engram, perks are "precision kills drastically increase reload speed" and "ADS increases effective Range". This thing has wonderfully balanced stats and reloads SO quickly. I haven't maxed it yet, but does anyone else have any personal experience or input with this rifle?
Edit - I didn't anticipate this much discussion about this gun when I first posted this, but I do appreciate it guys/girls! Thanks :)

Edited by Rymister104: 3/4/2015 3:44:42 PMHow about zen moment, single point sling, and 3rd eye on mine for pvp? edit. I prefer multi-tool, which is the best scout in the game, but when I wanna use another exotic Badger works. You just can't beat the all around utility of the very appropriately named multi-tool(yea badger is 3 headshot kill, while multi tool is 4; I feel like multi-tool can shoot 6 before the badger gets out 3 though).
-
badger is good, but maybe the one I got had bad perks cuz it was slow and I couldn't handle it. I prefer using vision of confluence, another nitc and my favorite is crusader 1 with firefly and explosive rounds
-
I love it I have 3, 1 has firefly and flared magwell it is op
-
I think mine has the same roll as yours
-
The badger is in the family of scout rifles that hit like a hand cannon. Gheleons demise is the other one. Best scouts in the game in my opinion. The outlaw perk is a great one.
-
More like midi tool
-
It's good, not great.
-
Outlaw/Rangefinder I've seen better
-
That's a good roll, outlaw rules. What are thr middle options?
-
I have the badger with firefly and zen moment. Basically. Criticals all day.
-
Rapier > badger! I use scout rifles 99% of the time for pve, so I've upgraded each one I've come across and the rapier is my current favorite. I would have liked to purchase the iron banner scout rifle, since I love the perks it has or you can reroll, but I didn't have enough time to put into it. You can PURCHASE the rapier with outlaw, fast reload after a precision kill and firefly, enemies explode with a precision death. Almost any scout rifle with good rng perks might be beast also. But for a sure thing, but the rapier. Btw I'm on xbox one I'm not sure if it's sold the same way on all consoles.
-
Gheleons demise is king. Simple.
-
Loving my badger ccl Outlaw and firefly perks Its a monster for trash clears
-
Range finder is only a 10% buff to range. Not really needed on a scout rifle. Firefly is always good. A reload perk like outlaw/feeding frenzy is good or rodeo/counterbalance to reduce the recoil. Explosive rounds can cause the firefly explosion not to activate so I don't like weapons with both perks. Armour piercing rounds are good, especially for the first part of CE. As you can get several head shots with each shot, causing several explosions.
-
No the cryptic dragon is
-
Zen Movement and Rangefinder with stagger rounds or over penetrating rounds
-
Zen moment, explosive rounds, firefly
-
I got one with explosive rounds and fire fly, this reminds me that i should use it more often but right now i cbf with Destiny :(
-
Having a maxed badger with firefly, and another maxed VoC, I still think MIDA is better :)
-
Mine has maxed out reload speed like the multi tool, and luck in the chamber like the hawkmoon, it's amazing for PVE but I would take a [i]slight[/i] decrease in [b]impact[/b] for a [i]slight[/i] increase to rate of fire. It's dangerously slow in PVP but if you get the drop on somebody it's just dangerous lol.
-
Not the best. My iron banner one is! Outlaw, firefly, and explosive rounds. Plus the range and impact are great as well as reload speed
-
My Badger has same perks and stats as GD.
-
I got one with firefly and either armor piercing, high caliber, explosive rounds. I use high caliber since explosive messes with firefly.
-
Was going to be my next purchase after NITC but had one drop today with explosive rounds and firefly. Things going to be amazing when its maxed out
-
I managed to get a badger spawn with firefly and high caliber rounds. Best legendary drop ive had. Its been my main primary ever since.
-
It is great, but I actually think the stock Gheleon's Demise from the last Iron Banner is the best: it has the same impact, better range, two more shots per magazine and Outlaw and Firefly perks as standard. It really is a brilliant weapon.
