Paint the target!

This review was machine-translated from the Japanese original. Numbers are checked against the original; if the wording reads oddly, the Japanese version is authoritative.

Underbarrel fires sticky rockets into enemies, and the main barrel laser detonates them all at once, a “stick and shoot” Daedalus-made shotgun. When the laser hits, the rockets that were stuck explode together, delivering satisfying two-stage firepower in a single weapon.

🧩 Red text source “Paint the target!” is a phrase used for military laser-guided weapons, meaning “mark the target with a laser (laser painting) to guide missiles.” It is a wordplay referring to the weapon’s behavior of “sticking sticky rockets → detonating with a laser.” Primary source confirming a specific work or character quote is unverified = external source is (unverified).

What kind of shotgun? (Beginner’s perspective)

• Daedalus-made Legendary shotgun (element is Fire)
• Underbarrel = fires sticky rockets (sticks to enemies or ground)
• Main barrel = fires a laser that detonates the attached rockets
• Usage is “① stick the rocket → ② explode with laser” two steps. Sticking to enemies at close‑to‑medium range and then detonating deals combined damage

Unique effect (Mechanics)

Misstical: Underbarrel fires sticky rockets. Main barrel’s laser detonates attached rockets.

• In-game: Misstical — Underbarrel fires sticky rockets. Main barrel fires a laser that detonates attached rockets.
• **Web (Lootlemon) **: Misstical: Underbarrel fires sticky rockets. Main barrel fires a laser that detonates attached rockets each dealing 4,130 damage.
• Point: Because there is effort to stick rockets, the more you stick, the more firepower you get on detonation. Firing only the laser by itself does not show its true potential.

Drop farming

Manufacturer part compatibility (License)

• Whether specific license parts can roll is (unverified) (not fabricated)

Summary

• A two-stage Daedalus-made shotgun that sticks sticky rockets and detonates them all at once with a laser.
• Element is Fire. The more rockets you stick, the higher the detonation firepower.
• Obtained from the “How Rush Saved Mercenary Day” Vault Card (Mercenary Day)
