This is still a crit weapon oriented towards slash damage. Boltor Prime is not going to be replaced by this for end game content, because it doesn't need to take 2-3 slots in order to mod for crit; in fact, the inherent puncture damage is more than enough to make it preferable. Realistically, the only drastic improvement here is the ammo, and no competent player runs out of ammo in end-game content. It's still a very good weapon, but it's not like the game just became unplayable unless you have Soma Prime.
