I'm unsure if I am the only one to notice that the minigun from Pneumaticraft is... Just plain bad. I've been told that there are configs for it's damage as well as other aspects. I believe that at least the rate of which it damages should be upped, if possible. Its a minigun, it should behave like one to some extent. Other than that, if there's a way to improve or change the potion ammo, it would actually make it useful. I did some testing and I figured that the potion ammo would have at least a decent chance at applying potion effects on top of regular bullet damage, but that's not the case. Potion munitions do not affect mobs whatsoever unless the potion should decide to proc, which is extremely unreliable.

Couple things here:

First, we're already boosting it next update. If more boosts are required, that can be arranged :D #1660

Second, in your testing how was your minigun upgraded? Speed and Dispenser upgrades have a massive impact on the total damage per second. And I can say that even pre-buff explosive ammo can take care of the Wither pretty quickly. It's pretty nice for the Gaia fight too.

Potion ammo is a bit of an odd beast since potions themselves are a bit... lacking compared to other options of damage. They are, however, great for other uses, like healing a friend, applying weakness, or other non damage debuffs. There's also no config to alter their damage, only their proc chance.
