You're missing what's really good about this weapon, it's not just the gimmick.

It's the fastest of all the Sword&Shield weapons. Only one that comes close to it is the base Silva&Aegis and it's the lame little brother of the weapon category.

It has both the highest CritChance and CritDamage of all the Sword&Shield weapons.

And then it just plain looks cool.

So the hype is, good weapon that looks cool and also has a useful gimmick.
