Boomslang - About

The Legendary Sniper Boomslang is manufactured by Jakobs and comes from the Borderlands 4 Base Game.

Boomslang - Unique Ability

The Boomslang fires fast explosive Bullets in a linear trajectory that explode on impact, dealing 100% Kinetic Splash Gun Damage.

On Critical Hit, bullets ricochet 1 explosive Bullet toward another nearby enemy.
The next Critical Hit after Reload also ricochets up to 3 extra sticky Bullets for each nearby enemy. Each sticky Bullet scales from the Critical Hit, dealing 10% Kinetic Splash Gun Damage on impact and exploding after 2s for 100% Kinetic Splash Gun Damage.
