The weapon is perfect for clearing enemy waves and before the update, it wasn’t of much help due to not so good trigger for its Shaping Destiny ability. But players have noticed that it is not much better. Although the trigger rate of Bombardment has been reduced, it now triggers on unshielded enemies.

Is the ability on Greg’s Reversed Fate after the update supposed to proc THAT often…?

Now on hitting an enemy, the weapon will proc bombardment on the enemy’s location and also inflict burn on them. Moreover, with the trigger on enemies with no shields, players will see more of this ability trigger. This makes it perfect and easier for clearing out the enemies.
