Description

Knights are divided on whether this gun's bolts pierce and then poison, or poison then pierce. To the unlucky target the distinction is irrelevant.

Charge Attack

A burst of 15 shots fired sweeping from side to side in a cone-shape. Can't move while firing or while reloading at the end of the charge attack. Every hit has a chance to inflict poison.

Damage

The following damage values represent the weapon at its completed level, without any UV or bonus from other equipment, and are listed as a range found from the first to last floor of each stratum.

Neutral damage is identical to Volcanic Pepperbox.
