Don't be fooled, the new Crucible bolt action sniper, The Helmsman, is faaaar stronger than NLB.
I got really lucky with my first drop and pulled a T5 sith near-max range, lone wolf, opening shot, and I slotted an enhanced targeting mod on it.
This thing DEFINITELY lands its crits far easier than the NLB that inspired it. I guess this shouldn't be a big surprise considering how this thing basically has the aim assist cranked as high as possible, but NLB felt beyond saving honestly. I didn't expect this new one to actually feel usable on MnK. Don't sleep on it and take one for a spin if you get a decent roll!
