Is the Gunther a good gun in Enter The Gungeon?

Best Synergy for the Gunther in Enter The Gungeon
The Gunther is already overpowered as it is, so the devs saw it fit to not give the Gunther any Synergies that could potentially make the game too easy to complete.
With that said, passive items such as the Crutch can greatly improve Gunther’s ability to home in on enemies (Stage 3)
How to Use the Gunther in Enter The Gungeon?
Using the Gunther is fairly simple in Enter the Gungeon, all you have to do is mindlessly shoot at any enemy that moves in rooms around the Gungeon. The Gunther has infinite ammo, so it makes a ton of sense to spam the gun as often as you can to keep your DPS up.
You don’t have to do anything special to make the Gunther stronger as well, as it automatically becomes stronger the more rooms you clear in the Gungeon. The Gunther’s piercing bullets at the First Stage already deal decent damage, and it will only get even better as you max out the gun later in your run.
One trick that’s worth trying is smashing the “Fire” button after dodge rolling. This will cause The Gunther to shoot all its bullets much faster. This trick can be great for dealing quick damage to stronger enemies post-dodge roll. Boss fights are one scenario that stands out.
Conclusion
The Gunther is considered by many Enter the Gungeon players as the most overpowered gun in the game for a good reason – the Gunther’s high DPS, quick reload time, lightning-fast fire rate, and infinite ammo will make any player an unstoppable force in the Gungeon.
