I guess I can explain a bit better. I'm ok with weapons no being top tier, I enjoy several weapons that aren't very good, it's just the game and value the fun factor a lot, as well as sound and looks. But this weapon is in my "How dare you DE" category, I have 4 formas on it and a more than decent riven (D/SC/-Zoom), despite that and after trying different builds, the gun deals no damage, has no dps, can't handle kuva flood enemies (which is my actual reference to judge a weapon), has a rythmic trigger, the animations get fucked when FR mods are added and has this super annoying zoom in effect when you are firing. On top of all these reasons, the game is getting more and more crowded with status resistant enemies, which is a tragedy for weapons like Zylok.

Things that need to be removed from this weapon: the stupid firing and zoom in animations, the duplex fire mode and the rythmic trigger. These aren't buffs at all, but help to make the gun more enjoyable and are non negotiable, as long as these are present the weapon will still be unpleasant to use.

Things that can fix this weapon: 1- buff crit chance to 18%. 2- triple the mag cap. 3- reduce the reload to 0.6s. 4- triple the FR. I don't mean all at once, only one of these buffs is enough, atm this gun is so garbage that DE could double the base damge and it will still be terrible. I've been successful at making Akzani and the single Viper Wraith work, but can't possibly fix this mess of a weapon.
