I feel ya. But sadly, power creep is really hard to avoid in long-running games. Hopefully the years you spent enjoying your Acrid act as some sort of consolation, that the fun you had with it feels worth the effort you put towards it.

And it's not like your weapon just got nerfed and is unplayable. It just isn't at the top of its niche anymore. And I'm sure your forma'd Acrid is probably stronger than an out-of-the-box Hystrix.

To answer your question, I think that this and many other weapons will kill a level 100 Corpus with 2-3 headshots.
