Sling

Outrageous!Charged

Sometimes the old ways are the best ways. Deals more damage to powerful foes. This is not one of those old, best ways. The lowly sling is barely a gun, even by Gungeon standards. Only recommended as a last resort for serious Gungeoneers.

Trivia

  • The Sling's damage multiplier when used against bosses is a reference to the biblical tale of David and Goliath. This damage multiplier makes the Sling the most powerful D quality gun against bosses , contradicting its Ammonomicon entry. Such a contradiction is part of the tale, however.
  • Both the flavor text "Outrageous!" and the Sling's Synergy with the [Bow] are references to the famous "To be or not to be" soliloquy in Shakespeare's Hamlet, in which Hamlet refers to enduring "the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune".
  • Using this gun as the base for [Duct Tape] grants the other projectiles the bonus damage against bosses.
  • [Bouncy Bullets] will further multiply the Sling’s damage for each wall it bounces off of before hitting an enemy, dealing massive damage to bosses.
