Hello again...
im wonder if anyone have any info about this Weapon other that this -> Mythic:

Obviously, this doesn’t currently stack up to the new crossbows, and trueflight is not that great of a WS. However, with the REM update, we’ll see what happens. If they bump this up to the level of the new crossbows, then this could be one of RNG’s best weapons. You still have to worry about hate though…

i have been saving alex for the last couple years/months and i love gun/bow jobs...

2-3x damage AM3 proc doesnt work on weaponskill or barrage for Gastraphetes, its pretty damn terrible.

I can't confirm, but i'm guessing the 2-3x damage proc does work on double shot though, so its primary form of increased damage is that way, similar to how I kick off AM3 with death penalty and get 2-3x damage procs with triple shot per-bullet.

Elemental weaponskills like trueflight are utter garbage and you'll whince at the pathetic damage it does storing 300tp to kick off AM3.

Just make a 119 anni where ODD procs on barrage and you can be giddy with your 40k barrages. Or make a yoichi
