The only use I see for this thing, is as a dragonslayer.

I'd personally build it for Corrosive/Cold, fire-rate and damage.

Mods required for the 'Everything Freezes' Glaxion build:

Serration

Split Chamber

Speed Trigger

Malignant Force ( recommended due to its availability in game, via Vor, if you've got High Voltage, feel free to substitute )

Stormbringer

Infected Clip

Cryo Rounds

Ammo Drum

At the end of the day, you should wangle out to about 4,060 Cold damage and 7,265 Corrosive damage per second, which combines for a total of 11,325 Corrosive/Cold damage per second, with 48% Stat-per-second.

The status proc will give you a good chance to not only suppress your target while you piss away all 1,950 rounds ( at a rate of 64 per second ) worth of ammo that this motherfomor can hold, but to nerf their defenses passively as you do.

I'd recommend using it on high HP sillyness like nightmare Jackal, in conjunction with Volt's Energy Shield ( stacked multiplicatively, to the best of your ability, that is ) for a maximum possible damage magnification ratio of 2,400% ( although you're only going to feasibly use a maximum of 350% ).

I mean, because of course, no one's going to throw out 24 energy shields ( after hitting the power efficiency cap ) and shoot through all of them at once with THIS gun's range, so we'll say you use about 3, maybe 6 for a damage total of either 28,312.5 DPS or 45,300 DPS respectively.

As per the nature of Volt's Energy Shield, that excess damage is all Electricity damage, but after a good couple stacks of that Corrosive status effect, their defense will be largely irrelevant.

In case you were curious by the way, the damage when fired through 24 shields, would have been 283,125 per second, although you'll never practically make use of more than 7 ( believe me, I've tried ).

So, there you have it. The guide to building your own, personal, novelty doomsday device freeze laser.

I'd recommend bringing along either a potent, ammo efficient secondary weapon ( perhaps silly cannons [ full status build AKBRONCO Prime ] or Lex Prime ) or a decent melee weapon with a reasonable amount of reach, modded with a level 1 Life Strike for the trip to the boss room, so you're not wasting any of your precious funny gun's lololol fuel.

I will be building this barrel of laughs myself and might possibly use it to farm Alad for Neural Sensors, to help replace the sheer amount of forma this mongrel is going to take to mod out.

All calculations ( as shoddy as my math may be ) were done based upon a maxed out compliment of the mods listed above, so any discrepancy that comes about as a result of using lower leveled mods, is not accounted for.
