In my opinion, it's worth it for several reasons:

1.  It can only be obtained through alerts. This is usually a big reason for me.

2.  It has inherent radiation damage. This means you can add corrosive to it and have it be effective against all grineer.  Something the "Tips" section has already emphasized.

3.  It's one of only 3 weapons with inherent radiation damage according to the Radiation Damage page.

4.  The Iron Phoenix stance mod (which I have) works very well with it.
