Description

Erastus Dorsey saw his customized machine gun as a harbinger of the Deluge. It's as ruthless and efficient as he was.

Characteristics

Damage can be increased from various bonuses. However, it is not recommended to waste high-tier mods on this weapon, due to low damage output. Especially not recommended to use rare and expensive damage type conversion mods.

The damage dealt to targets will depend on the armor they are wearing and the armor penetration rate on your character.
