Wyvernheart mod viability?

[StopItStepBro]

Anyone have any experience or at least numbers for the damage multiplier does when equipping this? I'm min/maxing a tanky spread build with Loyal Thunder. I like wyvernheart once the monster is exhausted and to unload on their head but I'd rather pack another close range mod or even a fourth shield mod if regular wyvernheart has similar damage values.

I like the damage boost, but I don't remember the % increase. I actually like it in multiplayer when the monster is enraged and jumping around. Lets you have a midrange option in case you can't fully lock down the monster with back to back flinches.

according to someone else : Max damage multiplier from continuous firing is increased from 2x to 2.5x.

Since you’re min-maxing I’m sure you’ll get more use out of the bonus close range mod for the spread rather than the wyverheart mod. Something I like to do occasionally to test things like this is set a timer for 30 seconds in the training area and see how much damage you can do to the pole/cart, then switch to the other build and test and compare. Also when a monster is downed you usually have around 8 seconds or so to do whatever you want, so you can try the same test around that and see the differences for yourself.
