[YeezyGT's S16] [MW: Handling/Range] "The perks on Guiding Sight primarily influence Stability, so feel free to invest further into Range, which will allow you to dominate open sightlines. Vorpal is especially strong here as a ranged Super shutdown option, and being able to run Rapid Hit in tangent with this makes it a sleeper pick. Should we receive some larger maps in future, Scout Rifles like this could very well see a little more time in the sun."
