[YeezyGT's S16] [MW: Velocity / Reload / Handling] "If you're after an ALH/Cluster Bomb rocket, here's one. There's not too much flavour to Bad Omens, it kind of does what it says on the tin. Opt into Field Prep for sustained DPS phases if Cluster Bombs become meta again."

gambit 1 wishlist roll

Mercules904 (Gambit): "Thanks to being a Void weapon, it's perfect for taking down the Envoys and then helping to DPS the Primeval, which I believe was the intent of the Masterwork roll, which comes with increased blast radius and direct hit damage, as well as the God-Roll of Tracking Module and Cluster Bomb."
