First impression: Underwhelming? (Destiny)

The ricochet rounds are as useless as I expected, but it also does two high-impact sniper rounds worth of damage per shot, which can Crit, so I imagine this will make it very easy to drop the Warpriest, Slaughter Golgoroth, mince the Twins, and stagger Oryx.

I actually quite like it, but when you put it like that... I can fire 2 High Impact Sniper rounds just as fast.

I'd have to do some math (Yay!) to figure out exactly how they compare, and Light Levels make those calculations really awkward (would need both weapons at the same Atk, while at the same Light, against enemies with matching Light) but it doesn't sound all that worth it.

I guess it's nice for just having a Heavy sniper as well as a secondary one, if you're running a "Priority Target"/anti-personnel build.
