This weapon is right up there with sybaris as a right below high tier weapon. The kind of thing that with love and affection can take you to the endgame, but wont go all boltor prime retarded on you. I also use the exact same build on this as one would on a sybaris, only i use its syndicate mod instead of point strike. Yeah its only 45% crit, but honestly i'd rather have the usability that shred gives over the extra 18% crit chance point strike gives. Combined with the fact that its damn near guaranteed status procs can compensate for that damage easily, and you have a very solid weapon. Viral damage will guarantee every target loses half health in one shot, and you still have a solid crit chance on top of its already high base damage. Corrossive procs can cover up the fact that it has no puncture, if you dont have cpX4. It really is the perfectly balanced weapon imo, without being op.
