Some will say boomboom is better than R. Cannoneer.

It's true, but only slightly. they are pretty much similar.

The boomboom has slightly less health but much more defense and dodge; this means he will have a better time going up agaisnt tanks.

He's also slightly better in terms of single target damage.

in general, everything is slightly better, but the cost is much higher, and this is the drawback of using boomboom. Better off just using Canoneer.

The second attack is also just a despearate attempt before dying or when you somehow face 3 enemies with near-death health.

This attack is very wasteful if you can avoid it. think about it, instead of using 3 ammos to deal ~130 x3 damage, you will only deal ~66 x3 damage.
