At the release of Destiny 2: Forsaken, Scout Rifle damage was reduced for PvE activities. This was further impacted by an issue where Explosive Rounds were negatively effecting damage, which was addressed in a recent hotfix.
To further address the player feedback, we are planning to increase Scout Rifle damage by 15% in a future patch.
Stay tuned for updates.

Why were Scout Rifles damage reduced in PvE at the release of Forsaken? And how much was it reduced by? Is the damage reduction being reverted and then a +15% damage buff being applied after the fact? And most importantly, are there any plans on increasing the difference of Impact between each Scout Rifle archetype? Going from a 200 RPM Scout Rifle to a 150 RPM Scout Rifle is a difference of like 7 Impact. Which is barely anything in PvE.
