ScreaM is right about changes to Odin

Odin is an extremely powerful light machine gun, which can be purchased at a steep price of 3200 credits. This weapon boasts insane firepower, which can pierce through any material in the game. This overpowered nature of the gun at the low price of 3200 credits makes it a viable choice.

It helps certain agents like Sova to hit surreal shots through walls in several locations known as spam spots. This has made the weapon overly powerful, as it continues to reign supreme in both professional play and public lobbies. The studio should look into the matter and roll out adequate nerfs to balance it out.
