I'm trying to review Krait, the new Veist auto rifle that came out. The gun is consistent and has great base stats despite its possible traits being subpar. The thing is great in PvE, but it just seems like you can't do anything with it in many cases in PvP unless you are playing against someone who is half-trying. And now that I think about it, a lot of them suffer in PvP for the same reason; that flinch. Most hand cannons will out-gun you with or without peek-shooting from walls. Same for pulse rifles. Using an Unflinching mod feels necessary to even stand a chance with something like Krait and even then your aim is bouncing around like crazy. Even with DOUBLE Unflinching. I do not have this issue with other auto rifle types, just this one. Right now, this is a bad archetype, maybe the worst. It needs help.
EDIT: After playing around with the Rapid-Fire Frames for a bit, I've come to the conclusion that the issue might just be an issue with Krait. There's just something about its recoil combined with the flinch that makes it unbearable in sweaty Crucible situations. On top of it being a frame type that doesn't do too well in PvP. I think I'm ready to do my review now.
