The MIDA is actually a pretty strong PvE weapon because of it's high impact, high Rate of Fire and unique movement speed bonus. Some other legendary scout rifles might have perks better suited for crowd control (Explosive rounds, Armor Piercing rounds, Outlaw, Firefly, etc), but the MIDA just eat Minotaurs/Captains/Knights/Ogres (Dat Stun-Lock). Plus, Bladedancers with their agility stat maxed that are using the MIDA (MIDA unique speed boost perk and MIDA's Lightweight perk) can simply [i]walk[/i] through the entire CE raid's Lamp run since the Thralls can't catch up with them, even while under the effect of Weight of Darkness x10.
