Recently got the messenger with solar burn on my latest trip to the lighthouse and feel like this gun is a laser beam - two burst kill on people from a distance never felt so good. Is this possibly the best pulse rifle in destiny? Plus it is a viable legendary primary rather than using an exotic in that slot, meaning truth can be used (or perhaps a new TTK exotic). Also counters well against thorn and the last word with its range. Also consider that hand cannons will be nerfed soon - will pulse rifles take over the crucible?

Pulse rifles are the warriors of year one. They stand against the push of hand cannons. Try Red Death, and other pulse rifles in the same caliber. You will get different, pleasant results.
