The Vex Mythoclast is the embodiment of Bungie's "Exotics should feel overpowered, but not be" philosophy. Initially the gun seemed incredibly amazing, but when compared to some of my other weapons it ended up killing only slightly faster.

It's very decent, and a lot of fun. Super Cool Exotic. When I get the magazine upgrade, it might push it over to being significantly better than other guns though :-)

Bumps it up from 21 to 55 rounds.

When I was going for the "20 fusion rifle double kills" bounty, I killed an Acolyte, turned to shoot a knight, and he put up his wall. Without letting go of the trigger, I casually walked around it and gunned him down with ammo to spare.
PvE, I go for the 55 rounds.
PvP, I pick the extra range, even though the 55 rounds make it much easier to do the Master Blaster bounty...

Is the smart drift control better than aggressive ballistics? It seems to me the added stability would be worth the impact hit, because it'd be easier to get criticals. In PvE this is easy with Gunslinger's Trance, but in PvP that skill isn;t active as often.
