Okay so I'm an avid scout rifle user. It's the only primary I ever care to use, just my play style. Year 1 saw MANY extremely useful and diverse scouts. With weapons like Vision of Confluence, Ghelions Demise, and The Scholar Adept I was easy to have an INCREDIBLE primary weapon and you could still use an exotic special or heavy. I personally went for the MIDA Multi Tool, between the clip size, and agility bonus, it was by far my favorite weapon in the game.
Now hear me out, I'm not upset that my awesome year 1 gear is not year 2 level. I just don't understand why there are not Adequate replacements for my year 1 stuff. All of this new stuff is complete garbage. They didn't boost up the ONLY year 1 exotic scout, and replaced it with a pathetic one.
Boolean Gemini? This gun is a joke. Its strictly okay as a whole. You can BARELY feel the extra agility perk in action. Compared to the Mida it is trash.
I'm on Xbox so the Jade rabbit is out of the question. Though I've heard it's nothing special, just a cool perk.
Seriously, scouts get screwed hard. Handcannons have the:
Last word
Thorn (expired)
hawkmoon
Ace of spades
First curse.
3 of them were absurdly strong and had to nerf. Still very useful.
Auto rifles have the:
Suros,
zahalo,
Monte Carlo
Fabian
All are adequate choices
Even pulse rifles have more
Bad juju
Red Death
No time to explain
All 3 adequate.
What do scouts get???
Mida (expired)
Boolean (trash)
Taloc (warlock only) I main Titan
Jade (PS exclusive)
One? I get one???
Why is this okay? Why make scouts harder to choose? With nearly ALL the maps so close range that scout is already at disadvantage, why make the selection smaller?
My only hope is the fate of all fools being in Trials of Osiris. It's extremely annoying that those of us that use scouts get noting good for year 2.
So, does Bungie Hate scout rifles?
Edit: I'm being informed of several good weapons, also that I forgot touch of malice. I was told by several people (no doubt the people that just wanted to sound like they knew stuff) that the malice was an auto rifle that they had. I have the quest to get it but haven't looked into it yet. It's a scout, yay! Other options that are legendary include hung jury and a few others that I'll try soon.
Feeling better already. It seems my lack knowledge was the problem. I thought I'd seen most all options so far.
I have grinded my balls off trying for hr Treads upon stars strike scout. 45 runs and still none.. Sad.

Legendary scouts are where it's at, in my opinion. On your list, you mentioned Tlaloc is Warlock exclusive, but failed to mention that Fabian strategy and ace of spades are for Titans and hunters.
-
1 RispondiCheck out the scout on my Hunter. It's a monster.
-
So many good legendary scouts dude. Seriously, don't waste your exotic slot on a primary.
-
5 RisposteHung jury from dead orbit. Probably the greatest legendary scout ever made. Ever. Period.

Modificato da CheeseSando: 10/5/2015 9:34:28 PMI can't drive a stick shift vehicle, does it make my Bugatti worthless? No. Does this make a liar? Yes because I own no Bugatti, but the question remains true. 3 known exotic scouts,(Jade rabbit is good but doesn't help your scenario.) hung jury seems a popular opinion.
-
Warlocks get Tlaloc but the list ends there. Easily one of the best guns in the game.
-
Ummm this is just foolish. The scout on my Titan downed Oryx and will wreck Trials.
-
Get yourself a Hung Jury and save the exotic for another slot. I had fun with the Ace HC on my Hunter, but it just doesn't hold up to Hung Jury's 20 round mag.
-
If they hate it, it wouldn't be in the game.
-
Just seen your edits. But the hung jury and raid scout are beast. Try them ASAP. I still need to get the tread
-
Fate of all fools is a ps exsclusive. Also you forgot the touch of Malice.
-
Hung Jury says hi
-
Fate of all Fools was replaced with the Jade Rabbit
-
Not an exotic but Suros Dis-43 is worth a try. Got wrecked by it in a couple of games, so I gave it a try myself. Very nice at mid to long range.
-
Good scouts: Jade Rabbit Hung Jury SR4 Raid scout Touch of Malice Boolean Gemini There are still more just can't think of some right now
-
9 RisposteIf you think the Booleans trash, you clearly just aren't very good with it tbh
-
1 RispondiSeems like there's too many exotic scouts in TTK to me
-
Treads upon stars, dead orbit scout, raid scout
-
2 RisposteScouts are in fine form atm, however I have 1 complaint. The class of scout Mida multi tool belonged to has effectively being erased. Out of all TTK Scouts there is only 1 rare weapon of this class and no legendaries. The rare I think only has 10 in mag so it's not very good. My favourite weapon in crucible was the one/one (and Mida) and it bugs me that there is no y2 variant.
-
Hung Jury Tuonela I think Jade Rabbit is awesome Suros Dis-47
-
Make a warlock and get grinding, that's what I did so I can use the tlaloc, 2 more weeks of gunsmith and it'll be mine
-
The gunsmith scout rifle Suros DIS-43 is a beast in PvP and pretty good in PvE
-
The touch of malice is pretty nice
-
You need to walk your Titan over to the DO rep and purchase 'Hung Jury SR4', you can thank me later. After you've completed that task you're free to use your exotic slot is a better place such as a Heavy or Special weapon. [spoiler]The Jade Rabbit is awesome, the perk makes it so you rarely run out of ammo. I'm sorry that you're unable to acquire it at this time.[/spoiler]

Modificato da TheSHADYzombie: 10/5/2015 9:16:14 PMYou're forgetting hung jury from dead orbit and touch of malice, probably the two best scout rifles ever
