s/s gets two debuffs one for mdef and pdef, the other just for pdef when you use shot. Some of the other ones have similar stuff like I think target lock of s/w isn't bad, and s/wd has some decent DPS.
Like has been said very where here is that the problem is they may not be horrible, but they aren't as good as other classes. Same with debuffs, when you have m/wl that can do 30% pdef/mdef, etc... even for debuffs they are less and less utilized.
People were using s/m to powerlevel... but that is pretty much dead.
They are fun but if you want to get to go consistently on end game runs, scout wont get you there.
I am just echoing everyone else here, the nerf was needed but was FAR over done. RIP scouts
