Still has the perk but it's been nerfed so hard that the perk is basically useless. It just gives an semi annoying green screen at this point. I used to love that gun for pve and pvp, now there's no point in equipping it. You can get many legendary that are better than it and doesn't take the exotic slot. I know people got mad at it in pvp, but it didn't deserve this much hate. After the first nerf it was still useable but no, people weren't satisfied. Rip thorn, I used it more in pve than anything but haters killed it
