Yes or no? Also could you provide the pros and cons of having it vs not having it.

Thanks guys!

Its a pretty cheap upgrade that swaps rending for ap3. More reliable against some things, less potential damage to vehicles. or 2+, but you have plasma talons to kill those. I like it to eat challenges for your HQ in there.

**Slayer-Fan123**

I say it's a waste of points. You have enough attacks with Rending to overwhelm most targets, and therefore the more reliable AP3 is unnecessary. Plus you're likely to have a character joining with a more reliable weapon as well.

Gambling on 6's isn't a great plan. Reliable AP3 is a good thing.

**ZergSmasher**

For 5 points why not? As the above posters have said he has reliable AP3 and can eat challenges that otherwise you would have to risk a more valuable character for (like your Chaplain or Librarian).

**axisofentropy**

Yeah only 5 points it doesn't matter much either way.
