* The area damage size is quite HUGE.
* Due to its limited range, equip this with a backup weapon if you want to engage enemies in medium ranges.
* This weapon features the new attribute = Deafening. It can render the enemies being hit unable to hear enemy shots and steps in the matter of five seconds.
* Treat it like an ear-rape version of the Deadly Digital System.
* When fired, it generates a sudden explosion sound that is way too loud (being 150 decibels).
* It is a good weapon for weakening enemies.
* If you want to lessen the risk of deafness, it is recommended that you should lower the volume.
* Do not worry about overcharging, just like most charge shot weapons.
* Make sure to use this skillfully as it requires timing.
* Fully charge this weapon to maximize the damage it deals towards the enemies.

### Counters

* You can feel the user's presence whenever you notice an unusually loud explosion sound even from afar.
* Do not try to attack the user while he is charging, since the area damage will be triggered if you do so.
* Use effect absorber items so you will not be deaf even when hit.
