The numbers don't lie. It's been top 5 in Crucible kills since Taken King for a reason because it's better than most any other primary/kinetic weapon at all ranges. Everything about it gives it an advantage. There isn't a single other weapon that comes close to MIDA's overall stats and what it brings to the table. Here's several: - 100 Aim assist. Headshots galore. - 100 Recoil direction. Follow up headshots made easier. - 100 Weapon handling. Quick swap, ready, stow. This weapon does it. - 100 Reload speed with 16 in the magazine. - Bonus agility. Strafing and movement are key to winning 1v1 and running for cover when you need to. - Range that consistently competes with long range scout rifles. - High Caliber Rounds that creates massive flinch. - Radar while ADS making hardscoping and getting the first shot in less of a risk from being flanked. - Highlights enemy targets making seeing enemy targets even easier. People are getting in an argument over semantics with this weapon. Is it overpowered or just overused? The truth is that it is overused because it is overpowered relative to every other weapon in Destiny. There isn't another weapon that brings more to the table and has reliably proven how good it is in all things. Just look at that list. Name one other weapon that has all that in one package. It really is deserving of the title Multi-Tool.
