I was kind of coming around to this thing's alt fire (and only its alt fire, as its primary burst I'd argue is the worst of any burst weapon), but then I realized that it fires only slightly faster than most snipers. And even though the Hind procs slash far more often than snipers would, its lower base damage means it still doesn't really compete.

Another comparable weapon is the Argonak. Argonak's semi-auto mode has slightly lower base damage and has its damage weighted far less heavily towards slash (though slash is its highest physical value), but due to its much higher fire rate and improved crit stats, it feels much better to use and has a better DPS (while still getting lots of slash procs). And its automatic mode can actually deal some damage and inflict status procs, unlike the Hind's burst, which is only useful if you're an Elite Lancer.
