Rad/Mental

I have 1 of these at 23 and Iam havin trouble getting into it. Is it as badass as it seems and does it get better?

I wish I could tell you, but I have yet to play one. I'm curious at to how the Rad performs at blaster dmg lvls, and I do know that the mental secondary is pretty good. I could whip something up in Mid's for you to look over if you like Frosty.

Ok Frosty, I forgot about this completely so I just took a few moments and did up a build for it. The numbers look good, but I'd really have to see how one plays to really make a judgement on one. Eitherway, here's the build:
