Anyone else playing MCH think Gauss Barrel is obnoxiously big and doesn't really match any of the weapons? Looks like something thrown together from a metal bin and slapped onto our gun(close enough quest wise If I remember right). Come on SE, couldn't you have made it smaller or subtle?

Its not actually part of the weapon itself. Why should it match? If it did, they'd have to make a Barrel model for literally every gun in the game. Thats a lot of work.Quote:

So since these are Gauss barrels, did Carl Friedrich Gauss live in Eorzea?
