GC-Item: Spread Needle and Baranz Launcher

[JohnnnyB7]

I just wanna know what' the deal with Spread Needle. People say it's the strongest shot but psow say's it's attack is 1-111 that's not a lot. What's the deal with countless needles, is that anything special. And does Baranzes Launcher bullets explode on people. And does it move like his missles.

The Spread Needle isn't the strongest shot, but it is the fastest, since it's technically a rifle that fires off 5 shots. The "countless needles" part is just flavor-words and doesn't mean much. There is an interesting thing to the SN though, due to how Shifta works and because the range of its ATP is so high, when you put some Shifta on a RA with one, the range will become quite a bit higher and there's a good chance that you can do some really decent damage with one.

Each "bullet" of the spread needle is actually a needle thus, "countless needles".

alright thanks a lot, what about baranz's launcher

The Spread Needle also has a Paralysis special... with as fast as it is, a good RAmar could lock up a whole room of enemies in record time. Yeeha!

Baranez Launcher is too slow!

[Sumo]

All Luanchers are slow

[PABLOparavida]

Sneedle is much better.

No true. Most of them are. Spread Needle is really fast

[PABLOparavida]

Sneedle is an exception.

I think it only fires 4 shots, but it's special is Charge, so you can dish out some major damage to fewer targets
