OP / Good touch[]

Q1: is it still OP like in BL 1?

Q2: if not, has anyone had the chane to compare it to the good touch? which one is better?

It's certainly strong. I'd say if you're really good at headshots good touch may be stronger, but at base every shot from hellfire does more or less 20% more damage and has the added bonus of extra damage exactly like explosive rounds only fire. — Ilvandel (talk to me)   00:42, November 14, 2012 (UTC)
Well, not exactly, the hellfire's explosive does 34.27% (my pic) of the card damage on a unshielded flesh enemy, and explosive is 80-100% (Wiki entry).... i would say moxxi's good/bad touch is a more "tanky" gun - meaning you will survive longer with it, the hellfire is prolly one of the best smgs for dps in game though.

Proc chance and infinite stacking[]

Hellfire-beesafree1

ok testing with my own hellfire pictured to the right i conducted an experiment for these 2 factors, 100% proc chance and multiple to infinite stacking. the rules i bound myself to in this experiment was:

  1. No skill points placed
  2. no smg or incendiary relics or class mods
  3. each shot would wait for the incendiary effect of the last shot to dissipate (for proc chance)
  4. any misfired shot would not be counted (E.I. 2+ shots at once(in this case all shots are not counted), criticals)
  5. I'd use the target practice at marcus's store
  6. the shooting pattern would be as fast as possible (but still conforming to rule 3 and 4) (this would prevent recharge of a tech pool should it exist)

Proc Chance[]

i shot 100 times to get a good sample, the three categories it could be is: it didn't proc, it did proc with full proc damage, or it did proc with 1's for the fire damage the results as follows:

Result Did Not Proc Full DMG Proc 1 DMG Proc
# of Shots 36 38 26

this shows that although it is not 100% proc rate it is considerably higher than what is shown on the card. the result did sometimes proc BOTH 1 damage and full damage off of 1 bullet, as this only counts as procing once it was only counted as one proc (i counted it as a full damage proc), but it did happen several times making the actual results near perfectly even. given all this with 100 shots the proc rate appears to be 64%, roughly 3 times what is shown on the card.

Multiple Stacking[]

as seen from the middle picture above a proc shows 3-4 damages at any given time so in theory if i fire a bunch of times, count the damages i see, i will know how many times it can stack (the middle picture kinda confirms it already)

ok above, i believe i can count 7 four digit numbers, 4 single digit number 1's, and 4 single digit number 3's using that it proc'd about 4 times, where all procs were damaging the target at a single time Beesafree (talk) 01:14, November 2, 2012 (UTC)

Drop Rate for Hellfire??[]

Seems like Scorch has a really poor drop rate on Hellfire. I killed him a hundred times and it has not dropped in True vault hunter mode. Anyone else have any experience with this? Tired of farming him. Forkinator (talk) 22:37, April 9, 2013 (UTC)

^Guy above says the truth, I killed Incinerator Clayton twice and it dropped the Pyrophobia in normal mode, but in same mode I killed him 25 times and Scorch didnt drop nothing, Mercy dropped the Infinity in 12 kills, what are the chnces?

I've been Wondering the drop rates in general for legendary, excluding the ones I got from the loot weeks and guarantees like the firehawk sheid, in 7 true vault hunter walkthroughs I've only found 7 legendary and mostly grenade mods. It's kinda frustrating that I can't get a decent weapon and as a result I struggle bad in ultimate mode Saint Ran Gee (talk) 21:09, February 24, 2014 (UTC)

Pre-Sequel location?[]

Is there any concrete drop location for this gun in the Pre-Sequel? I've seen videos of it being used and so I know it's available, but nothing in regards on where to look. Maetch (talk) 20:07, April 7, 2016 (UTC)

I've gotten a few from the grinder, but I don't know if any enemy/boss has a chance to drop it.
