Unfortunately I'm going to have to be one of those guys that cries user error. If you weren't warming it up and doing cool down hits it isn't going to be nearly as good of an experience. You weren't using it wrong, just really inefficiently. If you go on the persei thread they should be able to help you learn how to use it. You shouldn't consider people trying to help you with the herc as an attack.
Also your language really makes you come across as a hater, I'd tone it down next time and try to be objective about the vapes in your review.
Edit: Sorry for bumping this. I just saw they made the account to do this post then never came back.
