I think scout rifles need a second buff. Playing gambit with a high impact scout was such a chore; I thought I would be able to sit back and range the ads while my team collected motes but the damage was way too lack luster.
I think a big bump to range across the board would be perfect.
Thoughts?

Pretty sure it was a nerf due to bows. When forsaken dropped, Bungie needed a way for guardians to stick with bows. The only other archetype weapon that could outshine a bow is a good old fashioned scout. They nerf them, and bows are the better option now for medium to long range. I miss using Nameless Midnight. As soon as Forsaken dropped I master-worked one with year 2 perks. I regret that decision, it is so underwhelming.
