Has anyone else landed this SMG? I hadn't even heard of it before it just dropped doing a rescue mission and bounty.
The Breathe Free talent seems to really reward cover-to-cover moves, giving you a healthy (but temporary) damage bonus. It requires a little change in play style for me, since I tend to only move when the baddies are closing in on me, but done right it melts even Elites like soft butter. You also get a temporary running speed boost, which looks funny but actually came in handy once when a bunch of CP4 baddies were encircling me.
Added bonus: the talent also includes a +500% melee damage increase, which I sorely missed since I put my Sweet Dreams into cold storage (it was only a level 30). It's not a guaranteed death for non-Elites like SD was, but on the other hand it has no cool down!
I guess the RNG gods were smiling on me last night. I was just farming hostage and rescue missions in WONY, then doing the rewarded bounty to try to get more Level 40 gear, when one of the baddies just dropped it in the street. I don't even think it was the bounty, but just the "hostage-holders" I got it from.
I guess you never do know. To date I've never gotten an EB - even at the old max level 30, so I guess this one makes up for it.
Being pretty new to my inventory my build isn't even remotely optimized for an SMG yet (35% CHC and 65% CHD), but even with that disadvantage it's mighty powerful. Can't wait to see how it does with 60-70% CHC and 100% CHD, plus Perfectly Wicked active.

It's hard to get the gun but it seems like SMG area plus facing +5 RA has a good chance of dropping it. RA seems to drop better loot now and I'm pretty surprised they can drop an Exotic. I'll have to try it out on my new agent someday
