Just used this and compared to Javlok, its---different. In terms of "FUN" factor, this weapon sure deals lots of dmg with primary fire, can beat Lanka, Opticor and basically any crit weapon, including Latrons etc.

However...few things that disappoints are: The charge mechanic of 0.5 sec wouldnt be that bad, but the fact of that you have to hold down fire button in order to completly charge it and fire it (like opticor) is the "bad" thing. Javlok charges faster and overally no need to hold down the fire button at all.

And the most disappointing thing...the alt fire. From the angle of fun factor and usefulness, its "nah". The alt fire when thrown, deals almost no dmg, it doesnt explode or anything and wont even crit. And when it lands, it just holds the "regular" enemies (Heavy units such as bombards, heavy gunners, hyekka masters just walks out of it) trapped for a while, then dealing low electr. dmg. And then ...Javlok is literally "FU** YOU IN PARTICULAR!!" as you throw the spiky part into your enemys head and then explode in big area (possibly killing yourself, and not the enemy), but who cares, that this thing literally ignores any enemy level scaling and can be useful at any kind of lategame, but it will never replace the possible fun one can have with Javlok.
