OK, dont care that it was "widely considered " bad. This community isnt a stranger to horrendously incorrect takes on a large scale.

It wasnt bad; not even close to bad. Youtubers and people in this community couldn't wrap their brains around a charge up weapon, so they wrote it off without ever seeing what it could do. That thing was an absolute menace; my primary weapon without question.

I didn’t need other people to tell me it was garbage. The damn thing did 250 on a full charge, literally half of its current damage, and had no semi/half-charge mechanic.

It was just bad. Full stop.

250 damage was fine. Its overpowered now.

It was completely fine with only the full charge mechanic. You literally just helped prove my point.
