What exactly does spread do?

When i take that perk to see what heppens, it seem nothing is affacted as far as i can tell :o

Spreads out projectiles.

So if you get say 5 cannon shots, with spread they are a big fan to the side, without spread they are a narrow concentrated blast.

Try it with barrels, it not only spaces out the barrels but also impacts how far they shoot across the screen when they detonate, you can hit most of the screen.

Or whirl pools, you'll soon notice they spread out and the gaps between them is bigger so you can hit more of the screen and sail between them easier.

if you get over 100% spread, cannons shoot in all directions! and there's an achievement

The stat screen will have a blank space on the grid anywhere that a stat doesn't apply to a weapon, you probably didn't have anything affected by spread, as only a few weapons are.
