Special Effect

Kills ghosts, apparently.  – Special element, all parts fixed

Usage & Description

Notes

  • Vault Hunters receive a mission weapon version of this while Sub-Level 13: Part 2 is active.
  • A permanent version of the gun is awarded if the mission is turned in to Schmidt.
  • The E-GUN spawns with all parts fixed, consisting of all Maliwan parts (except the barrel, which is Dahl), no sight and a unique effect that makes killing ghosts possible.
  • Even though it always has the Dahl laser barrel, it fires as if it had the Maliwan one instead.

Trivia

  • The E-GUN is a reference to Ghostbusters:
    • It is a continuous orange beam weapon that is very effective against ghosts, similar to that of the proton pack from the Ghostbusters film.
    • E-GUN name bears resemblance to "Dr. Egon Spengler", the creator of the proton pack
    • It is branded with a No symbol, reminiscent of the Ghostbusters logo of similar design
  • The E-GUN is the only Maliwan weapon without an element.
