I did made a topic about this weapon (and Templar in particular) a few months ago, because this weapon looked too weird for me as well. yoink
But seeing how it didn’t receive any improvements or changes whatsoever makes me think that… Zantai is satisfied with this weapon? I know, I know, not everything must be cutting edge, but it’s cold RF Templar we are talking about, so how cutting edge can it be anyway? Instead it has an extremely redundant OFF mod and skill points to RoH, as if both skills didn’t have enough support as it is. In fact, I think it’s the worst weapon in the entire game as of right now. It has no identity at all; it’s as generic as it ever gets.
So yes, please make it a Templar weapon. A decent one, at that!
