It's not useless. The secondary fire is actually kinda fun.

Will it ever be an end game weapon? Not unless it gets a buff the likes of which DE has never done before, and even then likely not..

The primary fire reminds me a lot of the balancing issues they still need to deal with for sniper rifles.

So, if you like to chop things up at near melee range (I do) you may like the weapon.

If you like to shoot stuff up, it's low base damage, low status, no crit, and hard to hit targets with. By my rough math, without a potato at level 30 it may do around 600 damage per hit.

I suspect the guys that work on balancing the weapons need to spend a bit more time shooting with em instead of crunching numbers.
