The Slagy is part of a sub-group of SMGs that only can spawn with a fixed-element Maliwan barrel. They feature the higher-than-usual elemental damage/second and element chance granted by the Maliwan barrel. Because of the fixed parts configuration, SMGs in this group spawn much more rarely than their rarity color would seem to indicate (most often found at green rarity and, even more rarely, blue or purple rarity) and may often be overlooked and sold off or ignored by users unfamiliar with their uncommonness.
Despite the low rarity designation of these weapons, their high elemental chance and status effect damage can make them excellent choices for combat until a more suitable weapon is obtained.
Notes[]
The Slagy is obtained randomly from any suitable loot source.
This weapon is only comes in green or higher rarity.
Other SMGs in this grouping manufactured by the Bandits include the Barfy (corrosive), Burny (incendiary), and Shoky (shock).
