'''Ingenuity. Desperation. A haphazard prototype of terrible power. Such were the factors at play in the Wardcliff Incident.''' | |||
[[Hamit|HAMIT]]'S LOG. The lead is good, but so are the [[Fallen]] tracking me. I swear on my [[Ghost]] there's a hundred camped outside. I'm cornered in the lab and they're using [[Shank]]s to run me out of ammunition. [[Future War Cult|War cultist]], arm thyself; at least it's a weapons lab. This, er, rustic device was once an experimental axion emitter, which sprays weird particles to light up the basement of the universe. Right here I've coupled the emitter to some catacaustic quark-gluon coils, which will not, due to my scrupulous safety checking, create a strangelet that devours the [[Earth]]. I cook up some pain in there, the microverse decays, and the result comes out here. If it doesn't work, well, please name the crater after me. | |||

This gun fires a volley of rockets, making it useful for clearing multiple adds in PVE. It is also used in many boss damage phases, the most well-known being [[Calus]] in the [[Leviathan]] [[Raid]]. It also is effective at killing Guardians in PVP, due to the rockets tracking. | |||
