This gun is certainly not crap. If you don't like the fact that it's semi-automatic, that's fine, but you're simply wrong about the comparison. Assuming you hit with all bullets, the Phoenix Blaster actually deals higher DPS (damage per second) than the Minishark. The Minishark fires at a little over twice the speed that the Phoenix Blaster fires, when clicking at maximum pace. Plus, the Phoenix Blaster deals nearly four times more damage than the Minishark (23 vs 6 damage). So, even if you shoot three times slower with the Phoenix Blaster, since you may not always click at the fastest pace, it still deals more DPS.

Additionally, the Minishark has no knockback and therefore may not gain any knockback through prefixes.
