I disagree. It has severe lack of stopping power on higher leveled enemies. Even shielded red bars take a whole mag to kill which leaves the perk in the dust. Don't get me wrong, I like the gun for add clearing abilities and it's a lot of fun to use, but from my experience using it in the raid and whatnot, it leaves a lot to be desired. I'd much rather have a scout or pulse for the raid and end game activities.
