Overview

How it plays

Shoots fine, feels fine, does fine. The Quad Cylinder is the first weapon you get and, frankly, it holds up longer than it has any right to. It doesn't win a single stat comparison, but it doesn't lose badly at any of them either.

Strategy

Volume of fire is the game plan. On-hit jokers hit on every bullet, making them more effective here than on precision weapons. Aiming Burst at Lv35 adds perfect accuracy while scoped; Homing Burst at Lv55 fires a secondary stream of homing shots every 20 rounds.

Strengths

  • Starter weapon, no unlock required · Large magazine reduces reload interruptions · Works with nearly any joker or build archetype · On-hit jokers scale well with the fire rate

Weaknesses

  • Outpaced by every specialized primary at what it does best · No standout mechanic to build around · Fire rate advantage disappears the moment a Minigun spins up or a Shotgun closes distance
