DB has always been criticised basically for not being Gjallarhorn (while Truth was ignored for much the same reason). It's always been good though, if tricky to use and very situational - the old solar flares were great for AoD and it actually helped not to have tracking because you could put them where you wanted them. The new napalm payload is great for add suppression - and if you want tracking, just add Taikonaut (on titan at least). Like any gear in the game, ymmv.
