And regardless of how "elitist" it sounds, it's factually correct that the gun is "fine." Numbers do not lie; compare Grinlok's base stats against the other semi-auto rifles - Tiberon/Prime, Latron, Stradavar, etc. - and it plainly surpasses most of them in hard burst damage. A good riven even lets it compete with every sniper rifle for damage, sans Lanka.

While a wraith version would be neat, the gun is currently only hurting in exactly one stat (crit chance) by default and it already has a unique mod that mostly fixes it - an upgrade would almost certainly be excessive. So yes, "when built correctly" Grinlok works well, and you'd have to either be blind or just terrible at modding not to see that.
