Overview

Darkbeast is a relatively simple Submachine Gun that deals Corrosive Damage and pierces its enemies. Additionally, each hit has a 5% chance to cause an explosion, upping its DPS further.

While it may not be as exciting as some other Legendaries, it's a solid all-rounder that can get the job done throughout many encounters.
