That's the most false thing I've ever seen. MoA brought the body shot damage all the way up to the precision damage.
Normal: 19 per crit and 11 per body
With MoA: 25 per crit and 25 per body
Go watch a pre-Shadowkeep video and educate yourself. Come back after.

The like wasn't in your last, and so it does, that's fine. Still doesn't change my views of the weapon, you get better results with other weapons if you aim. That's like saying Precision scouts are better the High-Impacts because they do better body damage. They aren't, just aim

No it isnt. 900 RPM at the same damage as crits means you don't have to hit crits. So Recluse had both ease of use AND similar DPS to other SMGs with none of the precison requirement. Unless you hit 100% crits while holding down the trigger of an SMG (not happening on console), Recluse did more overall damage. Fact. That's math. So again I have to use the word "consistent." Recluse consistently did more damage than other SMGs. Yeah. If you hit 100% crits and ALWAYS had surrounded active, sure. More damage [i]can[/i] happen. But [i]realistically[/i], that's not gonna happen. Recluse needed a singular kill to get almost identical precison damage output to a surrounded SMG and vastly superior bodyshot damage output. It had MORE ease of use with virtually identical precison damage and MORE bodyshot damage. A tiny bit of bonus precison damage that only matters if you hit 100% crits isnt enough to make Mini Tool a better gun. For you? Sure. Fine. For 99% of controller players? No. There just isn't wasn't an objective reason to choose any SMG over Recluse when you break it down into those categories: 1. Precison damage 2. Bodyshot damage 3. Ease of use Recluse pretty much ties with number 1 and blatantly wins 2 and 3. Does that mean you're wrong for not liking it? No. Absolutely not. What it did mean for the majority of players was that Recluse was so good it eliminated any potential value to be found in any other primary, hence why Recluse at one point had a 95%+ usage rate in endgame activities. That's my point. I could not care less about your SMG preferences. Guns becomes powerful, and if the best stick around, the only future weapons that become valued are the ones that meet or exceed the standard set by the current best, unless the best gets nerfed or capped. That's what happened with Recluse vs other SMGs. That's what happened with Ikelos shotgun vs other shotties. That's what happened with the Leviathan hand cannon before we got other hand cannons. That's what happened in D1 with Fatebringer (until they retired it). That's what happened with grenade launchers. Hopefully you get that. Cause I think I'm done here. Have a good one.

Unless you had either surrounded or rampage which did significantly mor damage 🙄 Idk why you blueberries glorify mid-tier weapons like this. It's fine if you enjoyed the weapon, but dang it's not even that serious. This is why nerfs happen so often
