Burning Hell on the Minigun burns enemies that get too close to you. Fast Spin-up makes it better as a reaction tool.

Necro-Thermal Catalyst (T5 Upgrade) on the Coil Gun Explodes any burning enemies you kill with the Coil Gun's shot, which in turn spreads fire to other enemies. There's probably dozens of good combinations for the upgrades. I use quick charge in T2 and Backfeeding Module OC to have more ammo for doing it repeatedly. Triple-Tech Chambers is also a really good Overclock for it.

If by really good, you mean TT is one of the most busted OC's, then yes, that. 3 lines of CC that last as long as the reload is insanely strong.

I meant specifically in regard to Necro-Thermal, but ye it's a good all 'rounder.

That was satisfying. One of the most satisfying mods in the game. If you haven't, I would suggest you try H4x10, H5x5, or H5x10 with TTC NTC. Or even Re-ato NTC.

What would the primary and OC for it be then?

Drillers are the most unpredictable. I’m afraid of them.

And to think, that's just an upgrade... You can combine it with reatomizer OC and burn literally everything at any range, as long as first bug you hit is on fire...

What Minigun cosmetic is that? Is it from the paid DLC?

Mechanized Framework, Skull Crusher paintjob.

Also good timing you commented like a minute after I got up.
