Like all DDD guides, this is going to be miles long.
(please note that @Adabiviak is to blame for this)
base test study of grips with damage acc:

Based of prior knowledge of wanderlust usage we must eliminate all grips except for Maliwan, Jakobs and torgue based off ammo consumption issues and DPS.

As you see from DPS calculations Jakobs in every section minus fire rate is the worst.
This does not mean it is eliminated.
Please note While the Binary is the highest DPS this does not mean it is the best because of the limited ammo pool and the projectiles tending to have a mind of their own it is in practice the worst accessory for this gun because of the self damage issues(while rare) with the wanderlust.
For all intensive purposes we will be using potent because of the ammo concerns with the wanderlust as it is one of the few guns that can run out of ammo with an unlimited ammo build gunzerker.
Using for testing:
Bar is off.
This gun does not gain grenade game.
Area running: The dust, behind Ellie’s.
900 rounds tested.
Op8.
Can not kill slagged spiderants.
Can kill everything else fairly effectively with slag.
Can kill low tier trash mobs effectively without slag.
Not fantastic on it’s own though.
Killed about 10 enemies before running completely out of ammo.
Interesting tidbits:
One bullet can hit the same enemy multiple times.
Can decide to hit you.
Bounces off floors and walls.
Can hit multiple enemies at once.
Sometimes it won’t hit anyone and just fly in circles around them.
Gear suggested with it:
Stockpile relic
The Bee
A second Bee
A third Bee
Ten more Bees.
A better gun.
Bone of the ancients and Sheriff’s badge are decent for DPS but the ammo consumption issues make stockpile relics more desirable.
If using a Bee use the fire rate prefix version.
Usage:
The weapon is terrible versus surveyors unless you have projectile speed increase and there are other enemies around.
This weapon should not be used on OP8 as it is unreliable and Honestly one of the clunkiest guns in the entire game.
500+ anarchy stacks it’s barely passable but at least it doesn’t accuracy it has.
Non-OP levels this gun is fairly decent but this is DDD, we are about OP8 and wish there was an OP10.
How to use:
Shoot the gun.
Pray it hits the same enemy enough to kill them.
Honestly I think the gun is hilarious but this is the worst thing to use in the game, there are no redeeming qualities no matter how hard I try to make this usable.
I’m sorry(I’m not sorry) @Adabiviak I can’t make this gun reliable enough.
Here’s the video guide on how to use the Wanderlust.
