Usage & Description
Heart Breaker's high projectile count to low ammo cost ratio make it an effective weapon, but the Hyperion make can make it hard to handle in some situations where accuracy is needed most.
This shotgun is especially well paired with The Bee, often surpassing weapons of Epic or even Legendary rarity in raw damage output. This is particularly useful against enemies and bosses that take more than one magazine to kill due to its relatively efficient "ammo used per shot : pellets fired" ratio (1:10 or 1:12 (with vertical grip accessory only) as opposed to most other shotguns, of which the best tend to have a ratio of around 1:6, 2:10 [equals 1:5], 3:14, or 4:18 [equals 2:9]), good magazine size, high fire rate, and high accuracy when emptying an entire magazine without stopping.
The main drawback of the Heart Breaker is that it cannot spawn with a sight (It's more difficult to aim to distant enemies with the irons even with such a precise shotgun) and that it'll always be incendiary, effectively reducing it's versatility
As with many other optional quest rewards, on your second playthrough it is often best to wait until you have completed the game before taking this quest; doing so will scale all optional quests to level 50, including their rewards - such as this shotgun.
Notes
Heart Breaker has a standard critical damage boost (provided by it's unique barrel) of +50% but it could spawn with a critical accessory, which would make for a 100% critical hit damage bonus, effectively making double damage for all critical hits, making this weapon even more devastating.
Trivia
- The weapon's full Title in the game files is "Miss Moxxi's Heart Breaker;" however, "Miss Moxxi's" is treated as a prefix by the game engine and can be replaced with other prefixes.
- The weapon's flavor text is a reference to The Ink Spots' 1941 song, "I Don't Want To Set the World On Fire", made famous to gamers by its inclusion in Fallout 3 by Bethesda Softworks.
