Talk: The Blister

Red Text

I could not figure out how to remove the red text from the rest of the discription due to the change in the way the wiki works...--Saphireking65 17:16, November 2, 2009 (UTC)

I've gone ahead and removed the red text from the Special Effects section. I've also taken the liberty of rewording that section for clarity. -tsanth 17:48, November 2, 2009 (UTC)

Thanks it looks much better now. --Saphireking65 17:54, November 2, 2009 (UTC)

Effect possibility

I've noticed that the blister causes a daze effect. Could that be it's special? Please confirm. -The Accountless Avenger

-Cancel that, I've confirmed it's just the baddie I was fighting, however I *HAVE* noticed it has an exceedingly TINY spread. Especially when using the scope.

Breakdown

The Blister's Corrosive element comes from its Accessory, and it's scope is from its Sight. It does, however, have a unique barrel, labeled as gd_weap_combat_shotgun.UniqueParts.Blister_barrel3. Barrels traditionally affect damage and accuracy, and also have effects on shot patterns. It'll need further testing to confirm what exactly the barrel does. ··· Danny Pew Pew 00:50, November 22, 2009 (UTC)

Good, we need more people who can explain which parts of a weapon is special. --Saphireking65 08:24, November 22, 2009 (UTC)

If you can remind me sometime tomorrow, I should be able to test it. I'd do it tonight, but I'm busy with work. Just post here or on my talk page and I'll try to figure out what exactly it does. ··· Danny Pew Pew 03:47, November 24, 2009 (UTC)

The Blister increases damage by 20 percent and either multiplies accuracy by 3.2 or adds about 30%. I'll need to test it one more time - I'll have more information in a second. ··· Danny Pew Pew 03:20, November 25, 2009 (UTC)

I'm actually not sure how the multiplier works. It greatly increases accuracy on low-accuracy guns, but scales high-accuracy guns less. This'll need a bit more work. ··· Danny Pew Pew 03:33, November 25, 2009 (UTC)

Oh hai Danny :P Nice to see you over here :o --{{subst:User:Sam6555/sig}} 23:02, December 12, 2009 (UTC)

Farming Mothrakk

Level 50 Sniper/Bloodwing build for Mordecai, I've been farming Mothrakk trying to get a level 48 Blister, but the damn sod doesn't seem to drop it. Is it even a possibility or am I wasting my time on this ?

I really like the blister as a shotgun, it's corrosive effect is way stronger than the X1 that it should be, so the level 37 one from the 2nd playthrough doesn't seem to quite cut it anymore :(

Any one with any updates/hints/ideas on this, much obliged in advance. - Monachiel

The Blister is a reward for turning in the quest - not a drop. ··· Danny Pew Pew 17:00, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Purple variant

Purple variant of the blister

The article categorize the blister as blue, but I got it in purple... As you can see, Damage is 43 (x9) and it has better recoil reduction... But slower rate of fire. -Ash Crow 19:12, January 5, 2010 (UTC)

I don't recall if The Blister has it's own material, or if it uses general Torgue material qualities, but if it's he latter that would readily explain it. ··· Danny Pew Pew 17:02, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
