Combat

Basic Attack

Fires a cone-shaped burst of 6 shots. Two bursts can be fired before reloading. Can't move while firing.

The Blitz Needle seems to fire its clip slightly faster than the Strike Needle. When tested with both characters wearing the four-star gunslinger gear (Sunset Duster and Sunset Stetson) with the Swiftstrike Buckler, the difference was more apparent than it was when both characters were wearing gear that had no effect on handgun attack speed.

Charge Attack

A burst of 15 shots fired sweeping from side to side in a cone-shape. Can't move while firing nor while reloading at the end of the charge attack.

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.

Notes

Although the charge attack yields 15 crystals, the needle gun line of weapons seems to have only 12 crystals present on the gun.
