A +7 flaming hand cannon is an endgame worthy weapon for any ranged character that wants to wear a shield. Launching you backwards will let you stay out of melee range for longer than usual and is helpful more often than not, but may move you off of a staircase, out of a corridor, etc. If you've found another decent hand cannon, it's likely you will want to swap between them for different situations.

If you've found another decent hand cannon, it's likely you will want to swap between it and Mule, depending on the situation.
