Summarize your bug When you manually rapid fire "Jarra's Wrath" by rapidly pressing the trigger key it does SIGNIFICANTLY more damage than if you hold the trigger down. The amount of damage it does far outpaces anything else available in the game.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Equip "Jarra's Wrath" and press the fire key rapidly opposed to holding it down. The damage output will be much more than anything of its same quality can produce. Even at masterwork it can still outperform the most ideal legendary weapon.
What happens when the bug occurs? An extreme amount fo damage output that is clearly unintended.
What should be happening instead? More moderate damage comparable or equal to the performance of holding the trigger down.

"Jarra's Wrath" is so over powered it has completely trivialized all other itemization. When it comes to putting out the most damage possible nothing else matters except for survivability. This single gun used with 'rapid tapping fire' replaces all combinations of gear or equipment in damage output. The only thing I could see outpacing it is the ability to do equivalent damage at great distance or something like being able to cast Ultimates non-stop. It needs to be fixed ASAP.

BioWare still haven't even fixed melee spam exploit, and that was discovered back in April :P

And in case BioWare somehow think that's unconfirmed bug. Ppl bragging about using that exploit openly for quite some time.

It also stupidly easy to fix.

Just reduce damage 10 times, and increase fire rate 10 times. Jarra's Wrath retain same intended DPS that time, but will make it utterly pointless try to use same exploit.

Another solution - put spool/charge-up time for Jarra's Wrath, just like Rainmaker have.

One second required to charge up, after which holding fire button will make Jarra's Wrath fire normally. That likewise will prevent using the exploit, as quickly tapping fire button will simply make charge-up time to cancel, and not making weapon to fire at all.
