Was strong before 1.17.0 nerfed it from 10 to 8.5 damage. At 8.5 damage with Very Weak armor pen, it takes 21 body shots to kill through Medium. That's a lot of trigger pulls for a semi-auto. The 2.5x headshot (21.25) helps but you're still looking at 9 headshots through Medium. There are better options now.

VERDICTOutclassed. Rattler does similar DPS with full-auto. Ferro does more per shot. Move on.
