[quote]Only if you get infusion material. Which the game is very very stingy with. Plus now you have to worry each month if someone cries about it, it will be rendered useless and all of your time and resources spent ranking it up was all a waste.[/quote] If you don't get a weapon/piece of armor to infuse with, then your current gun is still the best you have and therefore not obsolete. And if a weapon is nerfed, it's usually to balance the sandbox. No one gun should be a panacea, or useful outside its intended range.
