Bungie and the players know this exotic is dope looking but as useful as a cigarette with no lighter. All that time Bungie puts into making a weapon and you kill it with bogus damage output?? This is a blue weapon at best!

I think a better idea would be to make it "elemental reactive" so it will always pop a shield like it's the correct element, and then give it a bonuses to swap speed to your kinetic for direct hits. If they did that I'd never stop using it.
