Its good compared to the current Meta. It can outgun a thorn in a fair fight... TLW no, unless you have good range.. .however I have killed someone with TLW up close a couple of times, but that's probably more to do with them having a bad first and second shot. Mida...not often unless I get in the first crit shot. Red Death, usually depends on the first shot. However, the thing is that it can compete with all the current Meta and still free up and exotic slot. If you thought it was bad, I'm not sure what the problem was. I don't think you could roll a bad HP.
