Introduced as the first Exotic <a href=\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/guides\/destiny-2-unlock-stasis-subclass\/\">Stasis<\/a> Scout Rifle, the Wicked Implement is a fantastic option for endgame PvE activities like Nightfalls and Raids. It&#8217;s also been confirmed the gun will receive additional buffs when Season 22 arrives in late August. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Otherwise, the list we have now hasn&#8217;t really changed since Lightfall dropped. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In particular, Trustee, Vouchsafe, Tarnished Mettle, and Doom of Chelchis, are all amazing Legendary Scout Rifles to use in endgame activities. Hopefully, Season 22 will introduce more than option that&#8217;s good for PvE. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center\" id=\"h-best-scout-rifles-in-pvp-in-destiny-2-2023\">Best Scout Rifles in PvP in Destiny 2 (2023)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-jade-rabbit.jpg?resize=640%2C360\" alt=\"best, scout rifles, destiny 2, pvp, pve, gambit, crucible\" class=\"wp-image-500337\" srcset=\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-jade-rabbit.jpg?resize=640%2C360?w=1920 1920w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-jade-rabbit.jpg?resize=640%2C360?w=600 600w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-jade-rabbit.jpg?resize=640%2C360?w=80 80w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-jade-rabbit.jpg?resize=640%2C360?w=160 160w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-jade-rabbit.jpg?resize=640%2C360?w=622 622w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-jade-rabbit.jpg?resize=640%2C360?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-jade-rabbit.jpg?resize=640%2C360?w=150 150w, https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/the-jade-rabbit.jpg?resize=640%2C360?w=1280 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Source: Bungie via Twinfinite<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong><strong>Dead Man&#8217;s Tale <\/strong><\/strong>(Kinetic, Exotic) &#8211; Purchased from Exotic Kiosk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Hung Jury<\/strong> (Kinetic) &#8211; Possible drop from completing Nightfall strikes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Long Arm<\/strong> (Energy, Arc) &#8211; Possible drop from Spire of the Watcher Dungeon. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Polaris Lance<\/strong> -Purchased from Exotic Kiosk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Contingency Plan<\/strong> (Energy, Arc) &#8211; World Loot Drop. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Symmetry<\/strong> (Energy, Arc, Exotic) &#8211; Purchase from Exotic Kiosk. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The Jade Rabbit<\/strong> (Kinetic, Exotic) &#8211; Can be purchased from Exotic Kiosk. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Trustee <\/strong>(Energy, Solar) &#8211; Possible drop from completing encounters in the Deep Stone Crypt Raid.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Randy&#8217;s Throwing Knife<\/strong> (Kinetic) &#8211; Obtained by completing PvP activities. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Jaruraca<\/strong> (Kinetic, Stasis) &#8211; World Loot Drop.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Destiny 2 is full of long-range maps where Scout Rifles can shine, and the ten listed above are easily the best choices in PvP. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like in PvE, Dead Man&#8217;s Tale is still the dominant force throughout the game, and has been the most-used weapon in Trials of Osiris for months now. Jade Rabbit was in a similar position until it was eventually nerfed this past season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New additions include the return of Randy&#8217;s Throwing Knife, one of the most powerful Legendary Scout Rifles the game has ever seen for PvP. The gun has wasted no time climbing the leaderboards since its re-introduction. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twinfinite.net\/guides\/destiny-2-how-to-get-the-symmetry-exotic-scout-rifle\/\">Symmetry<\/a> has been slowly rising to the top of the ranks as recent buffs allow the weapon to shine ever more brightly with Arc 3.0 builds. Overall, Scout Rifles are in a solid spot in PvP, with no big changes needed for them this time around. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s all for our&nbsp;<strong>best scout rifles in Destiny 2 for PvE, PvP, &amp; Gambit<\/strong>.
