For the legendary sniper rifle in Borderlands 3, see Lyuda (Borderlands 3).

Lyuda (often referred to as the "Lyudmila") is a legendary sniper rifle in Borderlands 2 manufactured by Vladof. The Lyudmila is obtained randomly from any suitable loot source, but has an increased chance to drop from Gettle located in The Dust.

Special Weapon Effects

Man Killer – Shoots one projectile that splits into three projectiles after a certain time on a horizontal plane. Distance at which the bullet splits is relative to time of the shot. Each shot comes at the cost of one sniper bullet. It has a 125% base crit bonus. The barrel also gives an improved weapon spread and accuracy impulse. Left and Right projectiles do 75% full card damage.

The horizontal spread is temporarily reduced to a single point after each shot, but very rapidly returns to full width. The return to full spread width is so rapid that it is nearly impossible to use this feature except when holding down the trigger for automatic fire.

Usage & Description

The Lyuda is a variant of the Vladof Droog sniper rifle, and shares that weapon's fast fire rate and high capacity magazine. The combination of these attributes and its firing of a splitting projectile for the cost of one sniper round makes the Lyuda a desirable weapon for most players, as it can serve as a high damage, long range assault rifle.

The Lyuda's bullet spread, while highly predictable, is quite large for single-shot use. Players may want to avoid using this weapon on single or weak enemies. Instead, they might take advantage of its spread on a large group of enemies, or a single enemy which is either physically gigantic or has so many hit points that automatic fire is practical to use.
