While having an instant-kill on hand is fun, be warned of the slow rate of fire, as well as the relatively slow speed, making it easy to dodge. If you score a direct hit to any parts of a player's body, it will result in an instant destruction. It also has splash damage, meaning you can blow off bits of an enemy's body, such as legs, arms, etc. Blowing off your right arm will result in being unable to use your weapons. Beware: Suicide can easily happen, if shot to close to an object or player, due to splash damage. Being the second most powerful basic weapon, it can also easily destroy structures, and clear an area of debris.
