It's underwhelming in my opinion. It's initial damage is just so low in PvE. It's pretty decent in PvP I've been told, I'm just not a fan of auto rifles. Really not a fan of them in PvE either. Their damage falloff is way too severe if you ask me. You literally start losing damage at like 10 feet depending on the auto rifle you're using. It's a little bit ridiculous to me. Far too significant. It sucks that it's disappointing. Because the Zhalo was one of the weapons I was most sincerely looking forward to getting. It's perks, & the fact that it had arc damage made me go on the mean search for it. When Three of Coins first were launched that week, my sole intention was to get a Zhalo. I spent hundreds of strange coins. & I got it on my LAST engram from Three of Coins....from farming all weekend. & then actually used it, & was thoroughly upset. It's decent in strikes & stuff. Especially as a Nightstalker. But I've tried in the raid, just way too weak, not enough range, & shit stability. It's a shame. Still love the look & feel of the weapon. & it's never going to get infused or anything, but it does upset me that it doesn't live up to the hype I built up for it.
