Scout Rifle Love

So, in year one, I tried all the types of weapons, and I dabbled in Thorn and Red Death a lot. But, when I got a Gheleon's demise with outlaw and firefly, I immediately fell in love with the thing. It was the best thing since sliced bread. Fast forward 2 years, and i decide to use the skeleton key you get for the campaign on the Mars strike and got the Tread Upon Stars with pretty bad roles. But it struck a thought; what is the communities "true-blooded" scout rifle? I know that people can just look up "top 10 best scout rifles" but I want to see what the community believes to be true. Cheers

    For my legendary picks, a bit of everything (ranked): #1. [b]Varik's [armory]Hand of Judgement[/armory][/b]: Hits like a Hand cannon but with huge aim assist. Explosive rounds is the perk to look for. It's even easier to get now that Varik's rank ups have class items eliminated from the main pool. #2. [b][armory]SUROS DIS-47[/armory][/b]: Fast firing, can be non-crit spammed in close range, but has the range and impact to snipe at range. Look for Full auto and fitted stock. #3. [b]Vanguard's [armory]Angel's Advocate[/armory][/b]: The only legendary in the archetype of the dreaded MIDA Multi-tool. Solid gun, and vendor roll is good. #4. [b]DO's [armory]Keystone 01[/armory][/b]: Hits like a truck, but it's base stats are worse than #1, the HoJ. It's perks save it. Multiple combinations of top tier perks can be created, E.G: Outlaw & Firefly. #5. [b]OMOLON"S [armory]Cocytus SR4[/armory][/b]: Another High impact scout rifle. It doesn't have as many perks available as other scout rifles, as it's a faction weapon. However, a god roll is almost guaranteed if you have patience, hold on to it's armsday order, and 1-3 new rolls will be available the next week. Look for the same roll as the OG Hung Jury roll, next on the list. #6. [b]DO's (TTK) OG [armory]Hung Jury[/armory][/b]: A solid scout rifle, but the vendor roll at TTK's start was praised as TTK's best scout rifle. If you didn't get it, There's a poor man's arms day order version of it, that can have the same roll if you're lucky. #7. [b]WoTM [armory]Chaos Dogma[/armory][/b]: Ridiculous High impact DPS primary, the best in fact. Has a perk called "Triple Double" that returns 2 bullets every 3 precision shots. It can easily get off 30+ shots on a boss, if they're all precision. #8. [b]Vanguard's (Brought Forward) [armory]Badger CCL[/armory][/b]: Another high impact one. Nothing too special about this, but it's basically a primary sniper. Most Previously mentioned High impact scouts can do better. #9. [b]Trails of Osiris (TTK) [armory]The Inward lamp[/armory][/b]: Just an extremely fast scout in general. Quick shooting, quick RoF, and just generally agile. #10. [b]Vanguard's (TTK) [armory]Not like the Others[/armory][/b]: Just a solid scout. Huge Aim Assist, mid-low impact and decent RoF. It's very reliable, got me through a time in destiny where i was lacking a decent scout. #1-#8ish are absolute beasts. #8ish to #10 are just a few i thought of off the top of my head. Haven't had the chance to Experience #4, #7 and #9. Just seen gameplay and checked stats. -TTK weapons labeled, only way to get them now is Engrams (except for Trails (Unobtainable) and possibly Faction weapons)
