(Note: This is an honest comparison between the underpowered Gally and the respectable Norfleet.)
Time to lay out the facts:
[u]The Gjallarhorn is significantly worse than any Rocket Launcher I have ever seen in any game.[/u]
Not only is the damage laughable, the pitiful amount of "wolf pack" rounds it fires reminds me of a marshmallow gun.
In order to make the most sense possible out of this post, I will compare it to one of the best Rocket Launchers I have ever seen: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgfCd48LP1M]The Norfleet.[/url] from Borderlands 2.
Let's make out the comparisons:
Norfleet:
[b]Deals massive damage in an extremely large radius.[/b]
[b]Carries significantly more ammo than the Gjallarhorn.[/b]
[b]Can instantly kill user if incompetent.[/b]
[b]Can be used in association with Slag, an elemental variant, instantly killing bosses.[/b]
[b]Fires several projectiles at once, each possessing amazing damage potential.[/b]
[b]Deals extremely large amounts of DoT, in several different elements.[/b]
[b]Ammo is plentiful and can be regened nearly instantly with the right equipment.[/b]
[b]Blast can be nullified if wearing certain equipment.[/b]
[u][b]HAS A MUCH HIGHER CHANCE OF DROPPING FROM SPECIFIC ENEMIES RATHER THAN RELYING SOLELY ON RNG[/b][/u]
Gjallarhorn:
[b]Deals low damage to bosses unless paired with several others.[/b]
[b]Has homing projectiles that split after intial impact.[/b]
[b]Homing rounds do minimal damage.[/b]
[b]Can instantly kill user in many scenarios.[/b]
[b]Relies on Burns to do extra damage.[/b]
[b]Ammo is rare, and often only found from dead enemies. Worthless on bosses.[/b]
[b]ONLY COMES IN ONE ELEMENTAL VARIANT.[/b]
Based on the previous findings, including a list of pros and cons for each, I have found that the Gjallarhorn is significantly worse than the Norfleet.
You cannot argue with this.
