You either draft this card for a 2/2 flier without any color requirements or to give an infect creature +2/+2 and evasion.
Development tests these cards like crazy so obviously it costs 6 to equip for a reason. If it was aggressively costed for constructed then it would break limited. 4 without color requirement for a 2/2 flier in limited is NOT overcosted. Get over it.

@Frostraven: Judging from your comment, I would say that you have never played limited before. Massacre Wurm is a mythic rare, and your chances of getting it in a draft are really really small, let alone getting to cast it on turn 6 without your opponent doing something to stop you.
This card is really really good for a limited infect deck, and I can say so because I've drafted this set 5 times. Equipping an infect creature with this usually makes it a 3 (or less) turn clock in limited, and that is definitely worth the cost considering it's an uncommon.
@TheWrathofShane: I'm sorry, all I read was "I don't like my boosters because I don't draw 15 Sword of Feast and Famine from each of them". If you don't like opening cards from boosters that you can't use, buy the cards you need as singles on the internet instead of buying boosters - it's really that simple!
Of course, outside of limited, this card isn't really that good, but in ... (see all)

6? Why?

This card is 100x better than it looks in limited. If you are playing infect, this card wins games by itself. Putting this on Phyrexian Juggernaut is GG for most limited decks. Plus the living weapon is great as well, often trading for one of the opponents cards. Ok, so 6 is a lot for +2+2 flying, especially if the creatures you are playing don't need evasion. But if you play limited like me, (Draft or sealed) and are making an infect deck, this is a card not to pass up. (It won me numerous games at the prerelease)

I want to slap everyone who dogs this card. The reason the equip cost is so high is because if you can get it on a creature with infect, you win. This card was one of my MVP's at the prerelease

I love Living Weapon.
Passionately.
But what the *** is up with that equip cost?

Love the mechanic. With Phreysis, that 2/2 flying goes virulent and kicks your opponents as.s.

Yeah, this isn't by any means bad card in limited. It's reasonably costed artifact flyer, that leaves artifact for metalcraft after his death in battle. Though equip cost is high as hell, you'll still be more than happy to have it on stalled board. Pretty high pick in draft.
