#Quad cylinder unique jokers are bad

Almost all weapons get more unique upgrades to change playstyle. For quad cylinder they are like green rarity jokers. They don't really change anything how gun performs. What would improve them?

Aiming burst: While ADS , shoot really quick four shot burst with 60% critical bonus.

Homing burst: Every three shot shoot one homing bullet.

Maxed out damage feels like what it's base damage should be, so unique jokers should compensate this gun damage somehow. Quad cylinder have too many cons as a basic gun. Low damage, low rpm and low accuracy. Nothing really shines about this gun. I tried my best to build this gun to feel good, current gun level 98, around 30+ different builds to change style much as possible and it's just okay at best. Unique jokers are like pair of sock in half full laundry basket. Nothing really changes.

Both the jokers are so underwhelming. Compared to some build defining jokers like focus shot, overblast, elemental spin, it really needs some sauce to spice it up. Aiming burst definitely needs some buff because nobody is giving 5 slots just to save a bullet killing one deadeye.

Aiming burst needs a rework for sure

I like homing burst, but it's a lil' weak

Aiming Burst just needs a 30% weakspot bonus and it will be good.

I feel "Aiming Burst's" lack of spread should be Quad's default behavior. If keeping the joker itself, buff it to where it either eliminates recoil, or has a weakspot bonus like Mothman and Erkki suggested.

The current iteration of 5 every 20 shots is basically a 25% damage boost. One homing every 3 shots comes down to a 33.(3)% damage boost. I think we need to also include that homing aims for weakspot (Ricochet doesn't, it aims for center mass and the target practice coincidentally has it in the middle), so that it's 33.(3)% x 1.5 = 50% effectively. Might sound OP, but gotta remember that it doesn't affect single-target damage output at all and Overblast exists.

Aiming burst builds can burst bosses, but it's not any better of any minigun build and quadcylinder feels like a downgraded minigun with almost every build, yeah, it needs a rework :c.

and could difference the weapon from others, the only weapon with homing, could be nice.
