The exotic perk that refills the magazine on ammo pickup is bugged on this weapon. It doesnt do what it says it does and rarely kicks in.

Just give the weapon the perk from Super Good Advice and it would probably be alright. I felt like the best way I had for using the weapon was in popping the Rally Shield and then just holding the trigger while crouching periodically to saw through a bunch of Vex Goblins. That was both really satisfying and somewhat effective, but the "Reloads ammo pickups directly to the magazine" perk felt pretty much useless because of two things. One: Ammo drops were super rare, even from the little trash mob enemies, and Two: I wasn't running around hosing enemies down with the weapon from a position where that perk would ever even have the possibility of working. So for me, that perk was a total waste. Super Good Advice was my favorite HMG from the first game, even beating out Thunderlord just because I had so much fun with the enthusiastic yelling and the minute-and-a-half long storm of fiery lead that that thing would put out. This weapon on paper sounds like the spiritual successor to that, but in practice was EXTREMELY underwhelming alongside the devastating exotic weapons that were given to the Hunters and Warlocks.

You have old gallp's crest sir. Hand it back or honour will need to be satisfied !

I second the motion.
