Anyone get it yet? Is it worth farming Gluttony for it?

Stat wise it looks pretty good. But I gotta get to gluttony first before I can start on farming it.

If you plan on hitting weakpoints it's a straight downgrade to Nazeistra.

Might be better for general spam though because it has better crit stats and it sports faster movement speed.

Can't speak on its gimmick, to me it seems it would be annoying to use. But it fits the theme of this being a more spammy weapon.

To obtain it requires killing Gluttony as that is the only drop location and is 4 research parts, so kill him at least 4 times ??

I’ve got one……it ain’t worth it at all. Not for the trouble it’s worth. It’s ability sways to hard to fast left to right to hit a target and it’s gimmick of buffing non attributes is second best to secret garden being able to buff your abilities and replenish ability energy. If you don’t have secret garden sure go for it but only as a stat stick to buff your non attribute skill power and that’s really it. I was equally disappointed when I got it hoping it would be amazing or broken seeing how much trouble it was to get 5 of each required pieces but nope, left underwhelmed and depressed

I still have to beat Gluttony , been doing other stuff like farming gold and afterglow sniper.

I reckon after a week most players would learn the mechanics

It's a fun gun for the collection, but otherwise just ignore it. It's a pretty brutal thing to farm. And the stats ain't worth it.

Farming gluttony? It is not a Solo Boss i can farm. Running a forced Pug Boss is not farming.

it freakin sucks and any other gun can do more with less effort

Nah the gun that you wanna farm is Greg's reversed fate. When it has a maxed ability, it nukes everything.

No, it enrages party-based hardmode colossi making them immune too much and too often as it deals non weak point damage and bombardment misses hangman completely. Don't use it for "everything".

Yeah the only guns you really should be using are sniper rifles, scout rifles, machine guns naezastra devotion, and abilities. However good luck pugging a group with that, most likely you get a lvl 23 bunny on executioner (hard) or a lvl 10 Valby (or both). Yeah I'm stuck on executioner hard because of crap like that...

Most people stuck at frost walker now i believe, or a few boss behind it like swamp walker. So it take a few more weeks before theh really catchup to gluttony and seriously Nexon need to release a true end game content soon.

This argument sound like "you either go Silly Weeper or Afterglow for weakpoint spam, otherwise it's a bad idea", because lmg/ar/smg make colosus rage even faster than greg atm

The weapon is above average-ish but the ultimate skill is unusable in its current state even if fully upgraded. It just shoots its load all over the place not landing most on the designated spot (weak point of choice). Loosing the ultimate stacks if you do not refresh or use them every 15 seconds makes it even more annoying. If they ever fix the accuracy problem on the ultimate, it will be a nice weapon to carry on some of those skill spamming descendants for occasional burst between skills.
I would advice against bothering with the Gluttony farm for now unless you really want it for some reason. If they ever buff it or make gluttony easier, sure.

Learn to aim properly, even lmg/ar/smg hitting weak point area doesn't enrage as fast as that bombarbment non-weak point damage spam. If you really suck, try some accuracy modules to shrink that reticle. SMG has some problems for certain colossi, as more than 23M away(typical standard grapple distance) your damage starts to nosedive, at 50M you are only at less than 33% potential.

I had a taste of it for one particular molten fortress run, a lepic and his greg manages to enrage it 4 times. Doing that pillar thing so many times are no fun at all with timer ticking down. Typically it's only once or twice if the party is mediocre.

Gluttony, bombardment does nothing for the snowballs either. Of course, enrages him faster too. Immunity phase = no damage done to him whatsoever, his instant wipe canister continues to fill and you have to play the purple ball ping pong.
