I first thought it was absurd when someone recommended using ice breaker for the thralls in the crota hard abyss part. But dayamn, it blows the shit up. You don't use the scope, just point the ice breaker in the direction of the screaming thrall running at you and kaboom, they all blow up. The recoil is no problem because you are not aiming and amazingly the 6 bullet mag is plenty to clear out all the thrall in the vacinity. I am a believer
