multi-shot on this weapon makes it impossible to remain accurate with single shots. it adds rockets to the shot as if it were channeled and goes into spread mode. while if the only purpose you cared about was hitting large groups this is not a big deal, but say you wanted to pelt a boss with single shots it becomes much harder to do. also shooting at the ground only works when you have the high ground. if the enemy has the high ground you can have rockets just shoot off into the distance and on level ground you need to be quite far from the target or with damage mods and multi-shot you can kill yourself.

it is very powerful, but it is also a very niche weapon. it is outstanding for defense missions, but in most other areas of the game another weapon would serve you better. especially if you already use a thrown melee weapon with power throw, which makes this redundant.
