Carnage (Borderlands)

Carnage title shotguns shoot one small rocket instead of a spray of pellets. The rocket is slow, but powerful and a direct or near-direct hit is often fatal. However, the splash radius is extremely small, and Carnage shotguns tend to be too inaccurate to reliably send a rocket into an area that will hit more than one target. To compensate for the inaccuracy and small splash radius, try to aim at the ground near your target, as direct hits with a weapon of this type are difficult.

Examples are on the talk page.
