Monocle is a legendary sniper rifle in Borderlands 3 manufactured by Jakobs. It is obtained randomly from any suitable loot source, but has an increased chance to drop from Demoskaggon located in The Droughts on Pandora.
Special Weapon Effects[]
One is enough.
- +15% weapon damage. -75% spread. -50% recoil height.
- Fixed 14.6x scope. ×3.5 critical damage when aiming down sights.
Usage & Description[]
The Monocle is designed to be used as a long-range precision weapon, as its extremely high zoom makes it difficult to use otherwise. Its zoomed-in critical boost makes it excellent for this purpose, although non-critical hits are penalized by its low damage. It also cannot be used for hip-firing as it does not gain a crit boost while unscoped.
Notes[]
- FL4K's Fade Away synergizes worse with this weapon than what might be expected: Although "Critical!" pops up on any Fade Away hit, the damage bonus of the weapon is only applied when striking the actual critical spot.
- A patch on August 20, 2020 increased the Monocle's base damage.
Trivia[]
- The Monocle shares its camo (Leather and Regret) with the Wagon Wheel, Amazing Grace, Stonethrower, and Nimble Jack.
