actually, trebuchet can function as a mid-range gun, or even a close range weapon. It's not as useful much of the time, but it is viable. Trebuchet only fires a single shot, so it doesn't have to be exposed for as long as a trident, which fires 3, and it is much more effective vs. ancile bots. But in general, yes, tridents are more practical.
