Borderlands 2: Buffed Unforgiven- Does it still suck!?
The Unforgiven is a Pearlescent rarity Jakobs pistol that is available most commonly in Digistruct Peak from OMGWTH, or the Binary Boss.
Compared to a normal Jakobs barreled Jakobs pistol, it has increased damage and critical hit modifiers, but it has a much lower fire rate. The weapon also has increased recoil and possibly weapon sway. Without the patch, the weapon is viable, but it is outclassed by most other options.
With the patch, the gun gains additional Damage and a much higher fire rate. After the patch, the gun can at least out speed Jakobs snipers, which is a huge improvement for the weapon and it allows the pistol to not be completely outclassed by snipers.
With Zer0, snipers are still always going to be stronger, but that doesn't mean that the Unforgiven sucks. It's definitely powerful enough to warrant its use, and it's a lot more fun to use now that its fire rate isn't atrocious.
The gun definitely no longer sucks. Happy to have found one on my farming character.
I am playing with the community patch which can be found here: https://mentalmars.com/game-news/borderlands-2-unofficial-community-patch/
