Here's logic. Since the FIRST exotic weapon balance patch MIDA has been unchanged. Where was your bitching then? It's pollution because it's late, and pointless. It's stats are average, it's fast firerate has a 4 shot headhot ratio but hitting those headshots isn't going to happen every gunfight. The old dead orbit scout had the same stats, just a lower stability. Why didn't you bitch about that one then? High caliber rounds aren't game breaking like you say it is, and it's not so viable in close range where shotguns and autos are taking you out. MIDA takes your exotic slot. There's the biggest drawback to it. It's a MULTI TOOL, and it's pretty average. Especially when compared to a jade rabbit or a tlaloc.
