This was one of my favorite exotics to use during Episode: Echoes. Paired with a Timeworn Wayfarer the gameplay loop of slaying out and getting the audio to proc on each kill led to me getting over 5k kills on a weapon with no aoe (heal clip desperate measures roll). With the rework it's much more useful during a dps phase (that is if it isn't bugged rn), but it's neutral game has suffered significantly. I'm running 130 class with a class font and I'm not able to get another charge of my class ability after mag dumping a spike grenade launcher. It's also not regenerating class energy from whirling maelstrom. I'm using Threaded Specter too so there might be a lockout on regen there, but it's just lost its luster and that breaks my heart. Shout out to the Bakris buff though that was perfect.
