Destiny 2 will undergo some major changes with the arrival of Season 15. Fans will see a new reputation reward system on Commander Zavala for Vanguard. Along with that, the game will also have a lot of weapon tweaks and nerfs that should shake up the meta in PvP and PvE modes. With changes like these, it seems like the game will turn upside down when Season 15 arrives soon.

Recently, the developers announced some buffs in a This Week At Bungie Blog Post. The post stated that Scout Rifles and Hand Cannons will become comparatively better in PvE, and players will require fewer shots to kill combatants. Destiny 2 is currently in the last leg of Season 14, and fans have some time to go out and grind for these weapons. These are the best Legendary Scout Rifles that players should go after before the buff hits in Season 15.

The Eternal Blazon is a 200 RPM Lightweight frame Archetype Scout Rifle.

The Night Watch is a 200 RPM Lightweight frame Archetype Scout Rifle. It is currently available through Roll jobs only and it’s not part of this season’s rewards for Umbral Engrams.
