Criminy, another invitation to b!tch about blasters. I'm all in. Retaliator. That's all I have to say.

Wait, I lied, there's more. Uncomfortable overhand prime, faux underhand accessory handle, mediocre range, and not particularly consistent. And yet I catch a lot of flak from the fanboys when I criticize the Retaliator. Almost as if they don't have enough left in their allowance to afford a really good blaster. But I speculate and digress 😉

Since 2012 there have been a number of really good blasters that totally outclass the Retaliator. Yet it remains on the shelf in a variety of colors and series, and people still swear allegiance to it. My advice, move on. Rampage, RapidStrike, HyperFire, you name it, they all outclass the Retaliator. And the Modulus MKII, pffffft, another Retaliator reshell. Literally, a repainted Retaliator. Pathetic.

Okay, enough hating on the Retaliator. The Stryfe is awesome, especially with a few basic mods. Or two. Or five 😉
