is it modded? :p

this gun appears to fit legit criteria, but a got it from a modder so i can't be sure. it's level 69 btw. input appreciated! 10:40, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

Level 69 pearls are 100% modded. pearls can only spawn in the armory, from craw or badasses/drifters; lv69 stuff is only avaliable in shop and from crimson midgets. BreakdancingYoda 13:23, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

figures he made it. though, as long as the parts are legit, i'll use it. it's just when the gun is silly overpowered that i don't want it. 19:35, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

Correction to Yoda: lvl. 69 pearls are about 70% modded because no matter how you slice it, it still is possible to get one from a shop or a midget. However do note that when it comes to the shop, a shop only spawns weapons varieting from 'far below avarage' to 'slightly above avarage' weaponry so do not expect a weaponshop to contain a perfect stats/parts weapon.

@GJ- Pearls ONLY come from The Armory, Craw, And certain ememies. You can not get Pearls from a shop. Level 69 legendary/Orange weapons are possible from a shop. 15:20, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

Vendors do not specifically only sell up to average weapons - that's precisely the reason that they're below or average: they will (as a cause or effect) be much more common than a good or even perfect weapon. Also, to reiterate, vendors and midgets do not drop pearlescent items. So correction to "the King", 69 pearls are about 100% modded. There, I sliced it.  nagy   talklog     19:39, July 3, 2011 (UTC)

On the contrary midgets do drop pearlescent, it might be a very low chance of happening but i can happen none the less. However it seems you were right about 69 being 100% modded sorry i made a mistake there, by my calculations that is deemed as correct. Also i seems we are not properly introduced as i've not seen you before mr. Nagamarky? I'm new to this wiki and i'll help out with information about this game as much as i can. I...

Atlas, the parts are legit, but it is a mod due to the level 69 as stated above. He made it to be the highest damage Stalker, though pretty useless IMO, due to the extremely slow projectiles. Usable at only very short distances. Deconstruction:

yeah, it's pretty bad combat-wise, but the 5x ricochet and really slow bullets make it highly amusing in inclosed spaces... 16:33, July 5, 2011 (UTC)

In the hands of a siren (bullet velocity increase perk) it might come out as a better weapon than in a breserkers hand. I... I am the King! 07:33, July 6, 2011 (UTC)
