Best Raiding Gun?

[Harakeeri]

Despite the danger of shooting yourself in the foot with it, I think the Casual Swordsplosion (level 72) is the best single target, damage dealing gun for raid boss runs. With the extra explosive damage and the 500% Damage perk, it's one mean m*therf*cker.

I'm lost on that damage perk you mention

[Kirios_tsiodras]

no its not. not even close. swordsplosion's dps is very mediocore. if you dont wanna use cheap items (norfleet, beehawk) you can reach max dps with the interfacers, dpuh, badaboom, lyuda, pimpernel. the element and most efficient weapon for each situation varies from chracter to character and from raid boss to raid boss. these weapons do not include salvador's gimmicks.(ahab, flakker, sawbar, fibber)

It's a 500% Weapon Damage. Here's a link to a screenshot I took: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=180976456

@kirios Well, I took down a level 80 Voracidous with 4 shots with the Swordsplosion and the Bee shield. I haven't tried the other guns yet.

Carnage beats the ♥♥♥♥ out of Swordsplosions in any department i can think of.

I may be wrong but I'd expect Vermi to be a bigger sponge than Vora is and Gaige is one shotting him with a Pimpernel. Same goes for Zer0 assuming the game will survive the iminent b0resplosion.

Seriously though, any multiprojectile Bee abuse is a joke on par with ahab+flakker zerking combo, bee + SS goes down this bag as well.

Wow, some serious necromancy going on here.

I like the unkept harold personally...

Depends on the build as well as the enemy. If you are using for example, Sniper Zer0 against Terra then i would reccomend a Fire Elemental Gromky Lyuda, If you are using Sal against Pyro Pete you can make short work of him by gunzerking using an Interfacer paired with a Grog Nozzle.. It all depends on who you plan to raid, but an all around good raiding weapon for me is the Banbury Pimpernel on Zer0, and the Sandhawk on every other character.

Whatever works for your class and build is great but Swordsplosion is an unusual gun of choice against high level enemies. More common preferences across all classes would be guns like Shredifier, Stalker and Double Penetrating Unkempt Harold.

Vora in four shots? Shennanigans.
