Hirudo

What do you guys think about Hirudo is it a good weapon? Althought it can regenerate your heal with each hits some people said it's so bad...

Meh, don't believe the haters. Hirudo's actually an excellent weapon if built for critical hit chance and attack speed, and you have a durable, melee-capable Warframe. You don't need Life Strike with it because of its inherent lifesteal, and it also means you don't need to channel it.

Stick Blood Rush and Berserker on it and you'll tear through dudes; while it's native crit chance is a little underwhelming, stack enough combo and Blood Rush will make that a non-issue, and its critical damage multiplier is tied for best-in-game with like four other weapons. Works great on Fire or Ice Chroma.

People saying it's bad are probably just maiming strike spammers who don't know any other way to melee, and thus don't like its short range and lack of status chance.

Well thanks a lot for the review, i thought nobody would care about Hirudo, now i know how to build my own Hirudo xD

The worst part of Hirudo is the short range. Its base damage is not that great. However it does have an excellent crit multiplier. It's fun to use and has a nice life bonus. It's not one of the best melee weapons in the game, but it is a good weapon.
