CRU folks are kind of ignoring pro-pipes in the meta. (Destiny)

I've spent a lot of time recently running pro-pipes (Orewing's/Truthteller) in CRU, and I'm a little baffled as to why they aren't more popular. Orewing's will net you 8 rounds from a Heavy spawn, and if you aren't landing direct hits (which typically kill), you're still softening up and disorienting targets enough to finish them off in short order. And 8 rounds can easily last until the next heavy spawn if you're reasonably efficient in using them.

I've Masterworked my Orewing's with increased reload speed, and paired with both SMG's and Hand Cannons to great effect. In most cases, a little splash from the pipe and 1-2 rounds with the Agamid, or a quick burst from Antiope or Escape velocity, and it's night-night for the bad guys.

And that's not even factoring in the trap potential of holding the trigger and waiting for your target to round the corner.
