The advantage against Tyranids isn't in the shooting really - it's in the gunstrikes - you do significant knockback and explosive damage when surrounded, makes it awesome alternative for the vanguard (also play Lethal only). It's too puny against Zoans though I'd agree
There does need to be more in the shooting and explosions without having to go into gunstrikes. Then going into gunstrikes gives a further bonus for eg. I did enjoy the gun more against chaos enemies. It will be interesting to see what the Devs will do with the gun in future updates. Feedback seems to be mixed from the community.
I think its very weak, borderline useless. It might be comparable to the regular Bolt Pistol, although I think the bolt pistol is better. If falls flat when compared to the Heavy Pistol or Plasma. I might pick it on Vanguard IF i also pick the Melta, but I almost never use the Melta because I think its too limited and boring.
It definitely has it's issues, the developer definitely needs to look into it. I can imagine it being annoying in PvP when it arrives there. The main thing I like about the gun is the continuous support damage on terminus enemies.
@@Jack2505_ Yeah, it's pretty good on bosses and single Zoanthropes. It's useless against doble Zoanthropes though because it makes them switch shields very fast, only get a few seconds on each and the damage never gets to build up.
as a Bulwark main, plasma is better as burst damage as well as recovering health with charged shots
yes I agree the plasma is better.

It should be great against the chaff, they are suppose to explode and chain
should be working like sunshot from destiny 2 or thunder cage from first descendant, blasting and blowing up nearby enemies.

@@Viktor_Johansson yes very true, the tag team zoans are annoying with this gun!
