Tri Barrel Plasma Rifle

The Tri Barrel Plasma Rifle is the 15th weapon available, unlocked at level 22 and costs. It was added during the 1.6 update and is an MIB weapon. It has great damage, poor range, good accuracy, good damage.

Strategy
It has the stats of the Shotgun, but it is more suitable for long to medium combat. Note that it is an explosive weapon with an exceptional blast radius. Even if the blast animation is small, the blast radius is actually pretty large. The plasma bullet travels slowly, so it is easy to miss the shot. It is recommended to shoot at the ground or something near the target, as the resulting explosion can catch the enemy. It is also good against Blunderbuss players by shooting at long range at the ground twice or more before he can even reach the player.

Despite having the same stats as the Shotgun, it is designed to be more of a long-ranged weapon, due to the fact that the bullets are explosive. Using it at close-range is risky due to the risk of auto-kill. Use this weapon like the Plasma Punch, but be aware that the bullets from this weapon are stronger than those from the Plasma Punch. This allows it to kill un-armoured players in one shot. However, the reload speed is extremely slow. Coupled with its small clip, it may allow enemies to kill the player. Therefore it is recommended to reload when not in a skirmish. With S.F. Headset this gun is way better. 50% damage bonus enables you to one shot kill all players with both hp perks and no more than 19% hp boost.
