Exactly. The acrid is fine at taking out one target at a time but you need to be accurate enough to use it (since it has travel time).

I dont have the embolist yet but it seems theres some pretty big advantages. Just pull the trigger and kill everything in front of you in seconds. Something you would not be able to do with the acrid. On the other hand, embolist has a pretty bad ammo economy and terrible range, so its more of a "oh shit im getting swarmed" panic weapon to pull out when you need it, and not a "lets do insane DPS on that one tough guy" thing like the acrid.
