This trace rifle can be used effectively to clear out lots of low-health enemies, along with damaging Majors with solar shields and Ultras with the weapon's heat field. With a recent 10% damage buff in Update 2.1.0, it performs very good in both PvE and PvP, although it's often outgunned by weapons such as [[Luna's Howl]] and [[Telesto]]. [[Shotgun]]s are also particularly dangerous, since players with these weapons can rush and kill the wielder very quickly. | This trace rifle can be used effectively to clear out lots of low-health enemies, along with damaging Majors with solar shields and Ultras with the weapon's heat field.

*When it was initially added to the game, the gun had a bug that increased its damage to kill noticeably faster than most other weapons, partially due to the solar damage field generated by the weapon. The bug was more noticeable and effective in PvP, and the discovery of this together with [[Xûr]] selling the weapon caused many players to use it during a period that is now commonly referred to as ''laser tag weekend''. This bug was later removed and a lot of people stopped using the weapon as much due to this | *When it was initially added to the game, the gun had a bug that increased its damage to kill noticeably faster than most other weapons, partially due to the solar damage field generated by the weapon.
