I see a lot of people talking shit on the MOU; I understand, it doesn't load buckshot and you can't PB someone in the back of the head more than 3 times in a row, so that turns a lot of marines off of it I think. But when applied properly, it sends some xenos running, not just T1 and T2 xenos, but ravs too. I don't know if it's just bald as fuck ravs im coming up against, but i've seen them charge at me, I unload the 3 flechette and hit each one, then the rav runs away?
Yeah it's not the best gun for damage, I can definitely see that, you can't do sustained fire with it. But if you're in a group, and you shred the armour of some of the bigger xenos, they are forced to run away. The sheer satisfaction of getting a rav to fuck off even though you're just one man makes it viable to play MOU to me.
