The Exotic Scout Rifle the Mida Multi Tool has been the favorite gun in early destiny, until the shift to high firing auto rifles and pulse rifles like the Clever Dragon.
Except for a couple of year 1 weapons there hasn't been any replacement for the Mida up until now.
So today we will be reviewing the Mini Mida Tool the Angel’s Advocate. The Angel’s Advocate is together with the Iron Banner Scout rifle the Distant Star the only year 3 Legendary Scout Rifles that are in the same archetype as the Mida.
The Distant Star can only be obtainable during Iron Banner and the Angel’s Advocate can be dropped from vanguard packages or you can buy it from the vendor for 150 marks.
Today we will be reviewing the vendor roll:
Let's go over the perks.
The vendor roll has the :
Red dot ora
Ranged Lens RLR5
And the OEG scope
Outlaw
Take a knee
Smallbore
Explosive Rounds
And Reactive Reload

These perks from the vendor works really well together, Reactive reload and outlaw are a great combo, where kills grants  you extra bonus damage when you reload the gun, and the reload can be super fast if this was a precision kill.
This is huge as this means that the gun has the potential to 3 shot a guardian if all of the shots are headshots, whereas normally the gun kills between 4 to 6 shots.
So this gun will perform very well in sixes where you have loads of targets to keep your reactive reload perk active.
I also use Smallbore for that extra range and stability at the expense of reload speed and reduced magazine size, which is fine as the reload speed of 83 is the highest among legendary scout rifles and you of course also have outlaw that helps you with that as well.
Alternatively you can also use explosive rounds to mess up with the vision of the receiving side so it is harder for them to fight you back.
As this is a scout rifle you want to keep your engagement at medium to long range and cover your short distance with your favorite shotgun, sidearm or fusion rifle.

If you did not buy the vendor roll and managed to get an Angel’s Advocate dropped... here are an overview of all the possible perks.

The only perks worth mentioning in the first column is Outlaw, Zen moment and Rodeo.
For the second column any stability perk is fine as this gun has enough bullets in the mag and enough range that you can trade for stability instead. Other than that high caliber round will be  very good option as well.
As for the last column all of them except return to sender are fine, it depends on what you prefer. Reactive reload is great for slayers in pvp, firefly is great for pve and third eye and hidden hand are great for both pvp and pve play.

If you are looking for a Mini Mida Multi Tool you will be looking for the perks:
Outlaw to mimic the max reload speed of the mida and High Caliber Rounds and Third Eye.  Mida was always known for Third eye, and the hidden perk was high caliber rounds until Bungie decided to nerf this.

A great PVE setup will be:
Outlaw, Explosive rounds and Firefly to maximize your AOE damage output. This setup will be great for facing large group of enemies that are grouped up together.

And the ultimate Pvp set up in my opinion would be:
Outlaw, High Caliber rounds and Reactive reload. We have already discussed the great combo of Outlaw and Reactive reload , and high caliber rounds is added here to increase the flinch of your opponents making it harder for them to fight you back.

So all in all if you like scout rifles you should definitely pick this one up from the vendor. The combination of outlaw and reactive reload is fantastic and can even make this gun better than the Mida.

Let me know what your favorite build would be for this gun and how you like it, do you think this is better than the Mida let us know in the comments below.
