Boomer is a legendary submachine gun exclusive to the Moxxi's Heist of the Handsome Jackpot DLC for Borderlands 3 and is manufactured by Dahl. It is obtained randomly from any suitable loot source but has an increased chance to drop from Scraptrap Prime located in The Compactor.
Special Weapon Effects[]
Some like it hot.
- +100% weapon damage. Always non-elemental or incendiary.
- Bullets are laced with hot sauce, which will explode on impact and deal non-elemental splash damage (splash radius: 75; can damage the user).
Usage & Description[]
The Boomer synergises with Moze's Demolition Woman tree as the high fire rate and guaranteed splash damage will frequently activate any skill requiring splash damage.
However, the incendiary restriction limits its use to primarily flesh based targets, although a non-elemental variant can alleviate this downside to an extent.
Notes[]
- After a 3/12/2020 hotfix buff, the Boomer had its damage buffed. Its damage was buffed again on 12/7/20.
- Hotfix 12/17/2020: Damage increased by 50%.
Trivia[]
- The flavour text is a reference to the 1959 movie Some Like It Hot.
