I've "earned" 7 of them, and I rarely use the 1 I kept. I'm glad Xur is selling it so people will use it, see that it's an above average weapon but definitely not worthy of your exotic slot, and get over it. The honeymoon period on this weapon is very short. It's only good for hard Crota if you don't have armor/talents that heal you, and for PvP I suppose. I don't play PvP so I couldn't care less about how it affects that part of the game.
