Changes: Mongol (Borderlands 2)

Revision as of 00:57, 4 February 2020

For the similarly named weapons, see Mongol.

Mongol is a legendary rocket launcher manufactured by Vladof.
in Borderlands 2, it is obtained randomly from any suitable loot source, but has an increased chance to drop from Dukino's Mom located in Lynchwood.

Special Weapon Effects

The Horde will always return! – Fires a single large rocket that sporadically releases multiple smaller rockets at random angles along its flight path. Consumes 2 ammo per shot.

Usage & Description

The Mongol is a variant of the Vanquisher, and mirrors the effects of the Mongol in Borderlands. The Mongol balances its increased ammo consumption with the ability to inflict damage both in a single concentrated area, with its large initial projectile, as well as over a large area, with its spawned small rockets. The Mongol can be used effectively against large targets, groups of enemies, and agile targets difficult to pin down with a single projectile.

Notes

The initial projectile of an elemental Mongol carries the variant's elemental effect, but the spawned rockets remain explosive.
The Mongol's item card states "Consumes reduced ammo per shot" followed by the unique descriptor "Just kidding, no it doesn't". The launcher itself does not have the free-shot effect of Vladof Launchers.
A hotfix on Day 27 of the Borderlands 2 $100,000 Loot Hunt increased the damage and reload speed of the Mongol and all other Vladof Rocket Launchers.

Trivia

The Mongol is a returning weapon from Borderlands.
The weapon's name and special effect reference the tactic used by the Mongol warriors used to charge at their enemies before splitting and surrounding them.
In Chinese localization, the name translates into "蒙古王", which means "Mongol King".

-The Mongol also has unique white text, first saying it uses reduced ammunition, then having the unique line "just kidding, no it doesn't." The actual effect is that the Mongol uses two ammo per shot instead of every third shot using no ammo.

-The Mongol is a variant of the [[Vanquisher]], and mirrors the effects of the [[Mongol (Borderlands)|Mongol]] in the original ''Borderlands''. It is more effective than other rocket launchers at hitting more agile targets, due to its ability to split into more rockets. It is also more useful at hitting longer range targets, due to the same reasons.
