And Guycott, Bad JuJu or Red Death are great to have. Got carried over to Taken King and have some of the more unique perks.
I got copious amounts of Bad JuJu (... there is a pun there that translates to real life, but it isn't relevant here), and it does the trick when I need some quick super boosting against mooks, but it's stopping power has always been pretty shit, even after boosts. It was one of the lesser pains in the ass to complete bounty for, and I think I've gotten at least twelve of those minimum.

Never really got on the Red Death train, even though it can sort-of counter Thorn assholes in Crucible play. Rather use my exotic elsewhere.

The perfect stability on the HP nearly made it a 3-burst scout rifle, then they did the range tweak which knocked that back a bit, but then the the damage boost to get people into pulses. Brutal midrage slugger. I hated not being able to change my scope, but that was a small price to pay for tight firing with super light recoil. As such, it took skill to pull off headshot bursts, but you're rewarded with accuracy without having to worry about muzzle jump AND strafing.
