No, it was a solid, and massive nerf on multiple fronts.

First off, instead of checking for procs many, many times per second when well modded, it now checks a maximum of ten, meaning it's worse than the Soma for status procs now.

Second, that damage checking rate? Well, if you have a bad framerate... or... hell, even a decent one or a great one, you'll end up wasting ammo, because you can't see how much it takes to kill your target. This also seems to have some kind of stutter effect like with semi-auto weapons related to the frame rate, if yours goes down... you're totally fucked with this gun now, and are going to waste hundreds of rounds into already dead targets.
