This is possibly the worst PvP weapon ever. It is ok once the perk is active. It getting it is nearly impossible. It should be buffed in 3 ways.
The extra handling and range from the first curse perk be an intrinsic non exotic perk
The perk should speed up the RoF to that of an eyasluna or such, it still 3 shots...
And getting a precision kill while the perk is active should refill the magazine

They should buff the damage so you can two tap low armor guardians... Otherwise its good like it is

I use first curse a lot. It's a pretty good weapon if you know how to use it. Keep playing with it for awhile. You will get used to it

The First Curse has the highest impact of all HC's. Buffing the fire rate and reducing the TTK would break the weapon. I agree that it needs a range buff, but you're asking for the gun to become overpowered.

You asking to make first curse way to op, and it isn't a pvp weapon anyways. It's way more pve than pvp and it is the counterpart of the last word (very fast hand cannon) so it's going to shoot slow.
