So i've been using this gun in crucible and for the most part it's decent. What could make it a more viable weapon would be the following:
- Increase magazine size to at least 65
- Make headshot kills trigger the explosion always and increase explosion radius
I think those additions would make this gun a lot more fun.
If you don't want to increase mag size then increase precision damage.
If headshot kills dont always trigger explosion then make explosion do significantly more damage.
Besides that I think it's a fun gun seeing a player blow up is pretty satisfying ;)
Edit:
So its been a day this post has been live and there is a clear view that,
- Magazine should be increased AND/OR impact should also be increased
- Explosion should be guaranteed with precision kills
There is also mention of having increased precision damage and some other major alterations such as new perks.
Lets keep this going.

Only thing the gun needs is an increase to it's impact rating. We currently don't have a single AR that has both a high RoF and high Impact. If they do that then the magazine size and stability are fine as is since it will balance the gun out vs other ARs. The idea is to make it stand out like the Vex. IMO, not every exotic needs to be defined solely by its unique effect.
