Anyone else having a hard time enjoying Afentis?

Afentis is slow, semi-auto, and requires aim, which is all fine. However, for a weapon we want to get direct hits with, it makes enemies fall down and fly all over the place. It's hard to continue hitting the same enemy to finish killing them, and it's hard to kill enemies nearby your first shot cause they're stumbling/ragdolling too. After you fire, the recoil makes your frame holds it diagonally across the middle of the screen, so it's hard to aim followup shots anyway. Throws break all the time if any part before or after the throw gets interrupted. All that, and multishot doesn't affect the throw's damage.

I've got a longer write-up here that I submitted to the weapons feedback section of the forums: https://forums.warframe.com/topic/1326867-afentis-issues-overall-speargun-bugs/

Is everyone else having trouble with it like I am? I've heard many people dismiss the gun portion and say they just use the bonus from the Thrown Zoneⓒ but that's really disheartening. I want spearguns to be good but they always end up with some glaring drawbacks.
