Jack-o'-Cannon is an unique shotgun in Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel manufactured by Torgue.

Special Weapon Effects

Your body lies beaten, battered and broken. – Launches flaming Jack-o'-lanterns that explode upon impact. The projectiles bounce on uneven terrain. Reduced ammo consumption. No movement speed penalty when aimed down the sight. Cannot spawn with sight attachments.

Usage & Description

The Jack-o'-Cannon is a grenade launcher, and should not be treated as a normal shotgun. Its reduced ammo consumption, decent fire rate and relatively large blast radius lend it to excel at mid-range combat, particularly for thinning out large, tightly packed groups of enemies. It also proves effective at damaging individual enemies hiding behind cover, as targets hit directly are usually dazed temporarily.
