Twisted Arbalest vs Shrewd

[Evil-Striker]

I'm pretty sure the Twisted Arbalest is not very high on the long gun preference list.

However, I happened to be running a shield build that relied on a low magazine count to constantly trigger the Hardened Coil ring, and I was facing off against the Shrewd, an encounter that required me to take down multiple targets in a quick succession.

So I switched out the Coach Gun I use in that build by default for the Twisted Arbalest, and it proved to be quite effective. I could clear out most if not all of the hatching eggs in a couple of shots, and any remaining stragglers were pretty manageable.

I also discovered that when shooting at that boss when they're firing at you from the ledge, its best to aim at the wall behind them; that way you can get each shot to bounce and hit multiple times, instead of just once when aiming directly.

On a side note, its really annoying when you have to face bosses on Apocalypse difficulty with the Regeneration affix, that also have relatively short windows in which you can inflict significant damage. On my current run, I also faced a regenerating Legion beforehand, and it was a royal pain.
