The Linoge is a legendary pistol in Borderlands 3 manufactured by COV. It is obtained randomly from any suitable loot source, but has an increased chance to drop from Lavender Crawly located in The Droughts on Pandora.

Special Weapon Effects

My name is Legion, for we are many. – Fires one extra projectile per ammo spent. Sharply decreased projectile speed. Projectiles bounce off surfaces one time. Fixed melee attachment.

Usage & Description

The wide spread and slow projectile speed make the weapon ineffective at long range, while shredding enemies at close range. It builds heat exceedingly fast, and if the trigger is held down, it will lead to massive ammo consumption. Hence, it is best fired in short bursts to pump large amounts of damage into enemies periodically.

Notes

  • The default ammo consumption is 3 bullets at the cost of 2 ammo. Variants with the "MOARR" prefix will fire 4 bullets at the cost of 3 ammo.

Trivia

  • The flavor text is a quote from a demon described in the biblical Gospel of Mark: "My name is Legion...for we are many." (Mark 5:9)
    • Like frequent misspellings on COV weapons, Legion is scrambled into Linoge. This anagram refers to Andre Linoge, a character associated with the demon Legion, from Stephen King´s 1999 television series Storm of the Century.
