Well, I'm extremely frustrated about it... First of all, the reticle... Where is the damn reticle? It's really hard to see that tiny red dot in intense combat arenas on tv. Second; its flinching way too much and if you are solo player that makes it really hard to find a clear window for three precision hits while full room of mobs shooting at you almost constantly. Flinching, like hell! (unflinching sniper aim perk doesn't make any reasonable difference either) Third; Recoil! It's worst then almost all other sniper rifles in the game. One shot and your aim all over the place. This is not a reasonable exotic approach, come on guys! And damage... It's good, but not that good. My crooked fang with boss spec and box breathing doing almost same damage with way better handling and target acquisition in many situations. Actually, i tested Crooked Fang on daily heroic mission against whisper and it was better then whisper in terms of damage. (Whisper without catalyst; 20.000 vs Fang; 21.500 or something like that) I know it is a high skill gap weapon but let me tell you that, my main is Fighting Lion! So i certainly know how to use high skill gap weapons. Conclusion: Whisper of the worm; it is a weapon that is definitely not worth the effort..
