Bombard legions of enemies with target seeking rockets. These dual launchers reload faster while sprinting, even more so in Gauss’ hands. Rockets arm after reaching a safe distance.

Best example of uselessness 765K Burst DPS

Having 700K+ DPS doesnt help the fact you can be out of ammo in pretty much 8 second.
But its looks good on overframe like the most of useless build with insane DPS zero usability. Seen headshot builds weapons with extreme recoils, firerate builds with low magazine and long reload speed. This build is to mock those 1K votes builds. They. Are. Useless.

First thing you should take a look: No condition average hit. This build is 9.5K
Second is Burst DPS. 64K. Well, not too bad.
Third is Sustained DPS compared with Burst DPS. Thats going to tell you how bad you got messed up with the reload. Difference is more then double. Thats about to tell you you have low capacity of magazine and high reload speed. Look at the stats... Ohhh really! Math doesnt lie.
Then checking you getting buffs.
3 you get. By killing, By Killing, By killing.
Means after the 1st kill you have the first stack of the buffs.
Lets calculate the magazine damage.
95K DMG / magazine.
Good! Now you can kill enemies on Lith. Fine, fine. Its probably good enough for the most of the maps. On normal. With no Eximus. With no demolist. Not higher then lvl 50.
Means you cannot unlock the whole map with this weapon solo. Based on damage.
Yess, you getting buffs. As soon you kill something. How much time you willing to waste on your first kill? if its more 1 sec? 4.5 sec? 8 sec? No options between. The magazine got emptied in about one sec, reload time is near 2 sec. So the question really is how many magazine you gonna waste before the first kill? 1, 2 or 3? That's all you got.
Now for example, get a Riven mod on it with magazine 500% Ammo 500%. I know there is no such thing like this high numbers. That's why its an example.
You have plenty ammo to kill one guy. In like 3-5 sec on high level maybe you even dare enter steel path with this crap.
There is a critical time to kill your first 2-3 enemies. And thats my friend must be less then your smallest stack time. Aka 4 sec. Thats what you got to kill your first three on general. No excuses, no "but if"s. If you cannot handle it any given time your weapon is garbage, rubbish, crap.

Now lemme show you a trick. Change that awesomeness must have Expel mod with base damage mod. Your no buff damage more then doubled, your killing time half, your struggle to maintain buffs half. Your full buff damage dropped 20% down to 620K+ On this level of DMG its really not sensible.

Now lets check the other stats.
Status. And there they saying, 50% Boooo its crap! Its not 100% its not good. Well, my friend it has 50% chance near 7 times in a single second if you dont have multishot. But you do! Means on average you will have at least 10 stack of status in a single second.
Same calculation goes to critical. Only cas not every single hit is status/critical, doesn't mean the weapon is useless, or its doesn't doing it. You will even see critical with this girl.
Too bad you will see once before that magazine gone. If you lucky enough twice. But that means you saw 2 crits in about 1 sec.
Now image that the crit and status chances switched. Means 6% status to 50% crit. Don't touch the mods. Will this weapon get you status against a demolist? Ohh it will. It would stack up nicely in a split second. 1 sec = fire rate x Multishot x chance. Without buffs its 1.1 With (multishot)buffs 1.59. Means even without buffs a 6% status chance proc faster then the status decay.

All n all, the weapon is crap, just as the most 1K votes weapons on this site. If you get this far in reading keep that in mind Serration / [Hornet Strike] has its purpose, and max buff DPS is not everything.
I hope you find this wall of text useful. Now go and sell your max ranked [Akarius] if you are not a collector as myself ;)
