For the record, I play on console.
Wasn't really a fan of BrayTech Winter Wolf back then. Heard lots of other auto rifle connoisseurs say that it was really nice for a precision frame. To me, it lacked my taste in combat utility. I like weapons I can use at both close and medium/average ranges very effectively. A lot of the times I used it, I felt like I was missing a lot of shots and getting punished for it, perhaps due to its recoil and range stat. Zen Moment would've helped me a lot if I actually landed my shots. I don't know, it just didn't feel that sticky back then.
But here comes BrayTech Werewolf, rising from another life. I managed to score a good random roll on it with Arrowhead Brake, Ricochet Rounds, Tap the Trigger, Under Pressure and a reload masterwork. I put a Counterbalance Stock mod on it and wow, just wow. This thing feels sticky. And it shoots so straight, I can pepper an enemy really far with it while holding down the trigger.
I've been seeing a lot of mixed reviews on the gun, but if you're a fan of auto rifles, you should at least try and get yourself a few random rolls before the event ends. It's easy to grind for and you have a lot of time, so you shouldn't miss it.
And it glows in the dark. Glowhoo if it were a gun.

That's the experience I remember. That the Braytech Winter Wolf was a very stable and very accurate weapon that was one of the best ARs that came out of Y1 D2's "fixed rolls" era. the only ARs that were in its league were Origin Story and the infamous "Uriel's Gift". If the Werewolf plays similiarly, anyone who gives that weapon a bad review either: 1. Just doesn't like ARs, or... 2. Is comparing it to pinnacle weapons like Recluse or Breakneck...and therefore their expectations are off.
