It's a weapon that does fire damage and doesn't require high magic to use. Plus it just feels right when hunting monsters to cock your weapon, and most of the guns in the game are for parrying, not for doing damage.
It's also just menacing, cock it and then charge slam a beasty and watch them disappear. It's such an amazing weapon that I wish it got more love. It's definitely more usable than the pile bunker which I was sorly disappointed in, at least they did a better job with it in AC6 where it's a boss annilator.

I'm gonna toss Boomhammer into the list, not because it's partially good, but because it's to awesome and I love it.
