The KerBoom is a Legendary Weapon in Borderlands the Pre-Sequel. This Torgue Assault Rifle has damage that’s on par with sniper rifles of equal level and its accuracy is exceptional. Because of its wide explosive radius and predictable child grenade spawns, it is very useful for crowd control and the user can effectively lob grenades to damage enemies behind cover by shooting the wall behind them.
Elements:
Explosive
Special Weapon Effects:
“Torgue got smarter BOOM!”
Consumes 4 ammo per shot. Each shot fires one projectile which has a straight trajectory and explodes on impact. The explosion releases a grenade which also explodes one second later. Greatly lowered fire rate. This weapon cannot score critical hits.
How to get the KerBoom ?:
The KerBoom can be obtained randomly from any suitable loot source. It also has an increased chance to drop from Boomer.
How to Grind the KerBoom ?:
You can use the Grinder to create the KerBoom. While there is no guaranteed recipe, you can combine 2 Legendaries + 1 Purple Assault Rifle to obtain a random legendary assault rifle. Be sure to make it a luneshine grind for a “guaranteed” legendary and also get a chance of getting a luneshine buff.
Notes:
The KerBoom has high ammunition consumption, slow projectile velocity and magazine size however. The slowed projectile velocity can make it difficult to hit moving enemies, often requiring the user to lead or even try to predict where the target may seek cover next.
Trivia:
- This weapon can be used with an absorb shield to refill rocket launcher ammunition.
