Talk:Gorgon/@comment-71.108.133.133-20130621064005

Fairly disappointed with the Gorgon:

1) Fire Rate -  Reminds me of a minigun. I understand the balancing reasons and whatnot, but dang, it takes like 10 shots to get up to the proper ROF, and then the clip empties after 5 seconds, give or take a second.

2) Accuracy/Range - I can't even bother with hitting more than 75% of my bullets at medium range, which include the beginning shots (while the Gorgon is spooling up). I mean, with a low fire rate the first few shots, shouldn't the Gorgon be a little more accurate?

3) Damage/DPS - Okay, probably on the higher side, I hazard. The 4 damage point advantage isn't going to apply unless you know all your bullets can hit. The reload's manageable, if you're patient or behind cover.

4) Recoil - Controllable even at extensive full auto. A small mercy, I suppose.

Overall, it's a boss/horde/crowd crontol only gun. Which the shotguns do a better job at, IMO.

Before anyone thinks that I haven't played with the Gorgon long enough, I took the time to max level it and add Level 4 Serration (9) and Rank 3 Piercing Hit (7) along with a Rank 4 Split Chamber (14). Perhaps I should have added elemental mods...

Also, everything gets better with a Catalyst/Reactor, so that argument doesn't hold much weight.
