Clarification on the supposed ricochet effect


Originally under Usage & Description: "Due to it's unique projectile behaviour the new Cobra can be used for all-range purposes. Its bouncing feature [NO, IT DOES NOT BOUNCE (tested with new character without any skill)! PLEASE CORRECT THIS AND ALSO DELETE THIS PHRASE.] can be properly be used in close quarters as a means to hit enemies even after missing a shot. It can also be used to shoot enemies around corners or hitting shielded enemies via shots ricocheted of the ground."

All Jakobs sniper rifles with the Klook prefix will have shots that ricochet. This is not exclusive to the Cobra.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.234.245.177 (talkcontribs) 10:23, 22 November 2012‎

I'm pretty sure a legendary doesn't require it to be orange. If a gun has flavor text and drops from enemies and not a quest, then it is legendary. I guess that means if it has special effects, and isn't a quest item, it's legendary, regardless of color. An example of an orange unique is the Flame of the Firehawk. You can't get it from any enemies, it is only possible to get from a quest, thus making it "Unique". Since it doesn't drop from enemies, it isn't a Legendary, however it IS orange. Also, apparently some dev said it was a legendary on the forums. I can't prove it honestly, as this is coming from someone in chat. MadCrayolaz ® 21:27, November 29, 2012 (UTC)

A link to the reason I changed it. I dunno about the dev blog, that was just Dynasty's word. CrackLawliet (talk) 21:39, November 29, 2012 (UTC)
