Heyo.
Seeing as how I'm really, really bored, I've decided to write this guide.

The Scout is the fastest and arguably the most mobile class in the game.
The Scout is the most efficient at close-range but is also the most fragile class in the game which means that he can never, ever, stop moving or he'll get torn to shreds.
The Scout also has a special innate ability, the double-jump which allows him to get to most hard-to-reach places that most other classes cannot reach.

DoT Build for Scout

Scattergun
I prefer the default scattergun due to its quite high damage values and also due to its ammo capacity. (note; the force-a-nature would also do nicely with this build)
Pistol
Pretty self-explanatory.
Bat
Pretty self-explanatory.

'Blood Hunter'
Bleeding to deal with Snipers at long range with your Pistol, you heal 20% of your victim's max HP after you kill them, people who are below 20% max HP take crits and your ultimate, that ungodly beast, what more could you want?

'ring'
HP Regen; pretty useful for surviving 1v1 against Pyros or anyone with DoT damage.
'mask'
More lifesteal!

True DMG Build for Scout

Scattergun
Same as above.
Pistol
Same as above.
Bat
Same as above.

'Night Elf'
True damage, chance to dodge bullets and your ultimate, which 'freezes' players for up to 2 seconds (if I'm not mistaken). PS. They can still shoot you.

'claw'
More damage combined with the Night Elf class.

'mask'
Lifesteal!

SAAAAAANIC Build for Scout

• Baby Face's Blaster
Useless when you spawn but gets better and better when you deal damage to the enemy team.

• Crit-a-Cola
+25% mov. speed and free crits!

• Bat
Nothing special.

'Undead Scourge'
Lifesteal, movement speed and you can go kamikaze on people. Win, win, win.

'boots'
Duh.

'mask' or 'claw' or 'ring'
Depends on your playstyle.

• General Tips.
-> Turn 'Auto-Reload' on.
Do it. You have to focus on not missing a single shot and pressing 'R' every couple of seconds won't help you.
->
Never stop moving.
Basically, never stop moving.
You're an easy target for snipers if you do stop moving.


• 1v1 Tips.
-> Do not double-jump when fighting another Scout.
Focus on hitting him instead of jumping around, missing 75% of your shots.
Strafing from side to side will help you dodge more bullets, either way.
