The Infinity is a legendary pistol manufactured by Vladof. It is only available in Borderlands 2. The Infinity can be obtained randomly from any loot source.
Special Weapon Effects
It's closer than you think! (no it isn't) – Does not consume ammunition. Shots fired form a fixed lemniscate (∞) pattern, ignoring normal recoil behavior. Increased accuracy when aiming down the sights.
Usage & Description
The Infinity is very versatile, and can be used as a fallback weapon at times when ammunition is running low, or as a primary weapon for use in prolonged combat. Its lemniscate pattern can take some getting used to, but may work in its favor as it cancels out muzzle climb completely.
Notes
- The Infinity's drop chance in Normal Mode from Doc Mercy is 0.07%, which is one of lowest legendary drop chances in the game. Furthermore, in True Vault Hunter Mode and Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode (TVHM and UVHM, respectively), Doc Mercy is no more likely to drop it than any other Legendary.
- Having even one rank in Gaige's Smaller, Lighter, Faster skill reduces the Infinity's magazine size by one to 0 and making it unusable. Having more than one rank in this trait does not lower the magazine size below 0. This will also occur if Gaige equips a Punk (class mod). However, this can be overcome by equipping a Necromancer (class mod) with a "Neutral" prefix.
- Because the magazine is perpetually full, every shot is eligible for the 0ne Sh0t 0ne Kill damage bonuses. This also works for Cooking Up Trouble allowing constant health regeneration.
- The lemniscate (∞) firing pattern and infinite ammo make the Infinity a very useful backup weapon against Hyperion Loaders, as their eyes and shoulders lie within the pattern, allowing for a high number of critical hits in a short time with minimal aiming.
- Having a point invested in Salvador's skill Keep Firing... increases the Infinity's fire rate to incredible levels while Gunzerking due to the lack of reloading.
- Support Sirens can put the Infinity to good use when crippled. If any team companion is reviving Maya and at least one point is invested in Restoration she can shoot indefinitely to help keep the reviving character alive.
- The Infinity is a potential reward after an extended number of offers at the item sacrifice table in Dragon Keep.
- Although the Infinity does not consume ammunition, it does not function with 0 ammunition, and must have at least one round of pistol ammo in characters' reserves.
Trivia
- This weapon has a unique design: a lemniscate (infinity symbol (∞)) on its barrel.
- The Infinity shares part of its special effect with The Dove from Borderlands.
- The flavor text is a reference to Stephen King's short story The Jaunt.
- A SHiFT code which grants a single DVA Infinity is included with the Diamond Plate Loot Chest. Its card caption reads "How did Vladof manage to make a gun that can fire bullets infinitely? Easy. They used... like... Vault-juice. Or something. Shut up."
