The time to kill with these things is entirely too high, coupled with a pitiful magazine size in most cases. I just managed to go at 3 and 10 with the Dealbreaker, despite usually getting the drop on my enemy and landed consistent headshots... only to have my enemy turn around and melt me. Everyone wants to cry about the Doctrine or the Soulstealer Claw, but fail to realize Auto users gravitate towards the "bullet-hose" builds because anything slower than a Shingen-build just gets your dick ripped off and fed to you in PvP. EDIT: I just went 25/9 with my Soulstealer Claw (Hidden Hand, Smallbore, Singlepoint Sling... not even a god-roll in PvP). Why? Because it doesn't take 10 seconds to kill someone with it. EDIT 2: Tried again. First match was with [b]Antipodal Hindsight (vendor roll)... went 6 and 14.[/b] Hit Pantheon with my trusty HoJ, and went positive (1.30ish? Was taking on snipers with it, goofing off)... then decided to give [b]Dealbreaker (vendor roll) another try, only to go 8 and 19.[/b] Ouch... these things suck so much ass.
