Where it's less useful is against heavily shielded enemies. Its attack properties are average at best, and it lacks any form of elemental damage. So if I'm attacking 3 minotaurs, it's far from the best choice. But if I'm up against swarms of thrawl (like say, during the beginning and end of the Crota raid) it might be one of the best weapons you can use, particularly if you prefer a "tank" playstyle.

I always found the old Red Death to be good when fighting the cabal. It had accuracy to headshot, and the healing to withstand the explosive rounds they fire at you. It's last on my list to upgrade, so maybe if Xur rolls it again.
