Who's the Funny Dev that Put Rangefinder on Scathelocke?

As an auto rifle enthusiast, I cannot complain about unique weapon potential. But Scathelocke is now the funny gun of all legendary auto rifles. So, what's the deal with this post? Scathelocke, since its previous iteration, has a default zoom stat of 20, which is the game's definition of medium-long range for auto rifles. That's already crazy enough. But I guess a dev decided "no, that isn't good enough, so let's give it Rangefinder and increase its total zoom to 22." Oh my goodness, I have not seen a zoom like that on an Adaptive Frame auto rifle since sights could be swapped out a long time ago. I feel like I'm getting mentally whiplashed every time I aim down sights with this thing. My first drop of this thing since it became tiered had the following: - Arrowhead Brake - Accurized Rounds - KEEP AWAY - RANGEFINDER - AND A RANGE MASTERWORK This is a ridiculous roll. With this Scathelocke, if you can see the enemy, you can shoot the enemy. They are NEVER too far away to shoot. The only issue is that this roll is actually pretty bad at closer ranges. You'd probably be more accurate if you hipfired at close ranges. Seriously, dev. Were you like "hey team, since this is the last update, can I put Rangefinder on Scathelocke? It'd be funny." Your auto rifle wants to be a scout rifle so bad, dev. I like it anyways, so it's okay. Your Scathelocke will make a fine addition to my collection.
