Advantages
- Grants a chance for a "free" attack each round in melee, assuming that the stinger is off cooldown, and further poison damage beyond that.
- Synergizes extremely well with builds focused on making multiple attacks per round.
- Grants bonus reputation with arachnids, though not enough to make them neutral by default.
Disadvantages
- Prevents the player from wearing any back-slot equipment.
- Moderately expensive.
- Unlike the other two stinger types, has no defensive utility.
