From what I can tell, this weapon was never intended to work like a bow where you do more damage on the full charge. The bows have two different attacks in the game data - regular and charged. The miter only has one that has a minimum and maximum charge time. This leads me to believe the charge was supposed to be linked to a different effect other than damage.

But honestly people, this is a mastery 4 weapon on a planet with level 47ish mobs. This weapon is meant to be a medium scale gun for mid level mastery players. Calling it bad merely reveals a lack of perspective, not something about the gun.

Beyond that, I think people are seriously underestimating some of the properties of this weapon. 125 serrated blade damage that bounces around sounds like a dream to me. If you aren't mastery 7 yet to get the ogris or acrid, this is probably the best gun around for infested.
