The Scorpio is a unique Dahl assault rifle in Borderlands 2 that is rewarded for completing the Bearer of Bad News side quest. This weapon is an homage to Roland, the leader of the Crimson Raiders who was murdered by Handsome Jack.
This weapon has increased burst size over a normal Dahl assault rifle. It has very low recoil, and a relatively deep magazine. The community patch increases its base damage, fire rate, and burst size. This brings the base damage more in line with the non-unique Dahl assault rifles that are of similar build.
The weapon was viable prior to the community patch, and the community patch does a lot to bring it more in line with a lot of other unique weapons as far as its potency goes. In addition to the direct buffs to the weapon, it also benefits from the global critical hit buff to ARs and the increased ammo pick ups.
This weapon definitely does not suck, but it is a little behind some high tier weapons that are available. I'm happy to see this weapon receive a substantial buff because Roland was a fun character to play in Borderlands 1, and one that I enjoyed.
