I haven't heard (or seen) anything about the Brachydios Slime Status being a new shot type. If true, then that's cool!

And the AWC above is correct: Bowguns cannot have a set element with their normal, raw damage shots. Instead, Bowguns have the ability to utilize the elements via ammo types, which is INSANELY cool!

I wish I could be a Bowgunner...everytime I try to solo something with a Bowgun, I just feel like I'm not doing a lot of damage!
