Destiny 2 Patron of Lost Causes scout rifle: How to get and God Roll

Destiny 2 offers numerous ways for players to acquire new gear, including the returning arsenal such as the Patron of Lost Causes scout rifle, which made a comeback with The Final Shape DLC.

Scout rifles aren't in the best place during the current sandbox meta, however, with the Hunter's Journal artifact having an Unstoppable Scout Rifle mod to deal with Champions, the Patron of Lost Causes could have a place in high-end content, especially with its perk pool.

So, if you want to add this returning scout rifle to your collection, we'll tell you exactly how to get it and its God Roll for both PvE and PvP. While you're here, consider checking out how to get the Scintillation linear fusion rifle and its God Roll.

• Dealing melee damage increases this weapon's handling and loads a small amount of ammo from reserves
