Review
Previously an extremely rare archetype of sniper rifles, Rise of Iron brought us three new examples of the very-high impact variety. EX MACHINA may not have fantastic base stats, but the combination of Spray and Pray and Wait for It (which gives you a larger magazine if you reload when empty) may make it a tremendous weapon for doing maximum damage to bosses. If you don't want to blow an Exotic slot on Black Spindle, and you haven't been lucky enough to get a Casket Mag/Triple Tap sniper from the Gunsmith or drops, then this is probably your best choice. Linear Compensator will give a nice bit of bonus damage to each shot, and Quickdraw and Injection Mold can both help with the rather slow handling speeds of the weapon.
