Aaaaand just like the Dera, the accuracy goes completely nuts when you stick a Heavy Caliber on, reducing it from 100 to 7.2. It's really funny watching those bolts go everywhere, I guess.

Comparing this gun to the Boltor Prime, there are a lot of similarties. Nearly the same fire rate, status chance and travel time with its projectiles, with completely identical crit aptitude and magazine size. While the Boltor Prime is initially less accurate, it wins out big time when you slap a heavy caliber on there, and on top of that, it already does SIGNIFICANTLY more damage (almost 50%!). There is very sadly reason to use this weapon over the BP because of their similar functionality and one being obviously better than the other. Oh well, at least it looks cool, I guess?

I mean, I've put 4-6 forma on so many mediocre weapons at this point I just can't bring myself to shell out those kind of resources on this thing just to have a crappy Boltor Prime in my inventory. C'mon DE, what the hell is it going to threaten to have given this gun a bigger buff? Even if you'd have put another additional 10 damage on it and fixed the heavy caliber nonsense, it would still be  worse than a gun that's been out like a year and a half, but at least at that point I'd probably use it.
