The wrong text is displaying for that bonus. It's actually: "25% of stowed weapon clip reloaded on a kill"

Tekrunner: DLC 5 - Weapon Problems

10 years ago (April 7, 2014, 7:29 pm)

I believe that big boomers have the same problem as cluster explosives. They scale fine on "real" levels, but not with EGO boosts.

I think that it's normal for the sludge weapons you listed not to...

That's unsurprising, given how only a unicorn triple crit orange sniper can outdamage it.

Dixie Cougar: Big boomers actual blast radius.

I use a boomer with velocity mod/mastery/oj roll... I don't care how much (little) skill it requires, I just enjoy watching the ragdolls fly!

That sounds like a bug. Besides the Big Boomer, any other guns do that?

Rashere: Coming Change to Weapon Rarity Bonuses

9 years ago (January 19, 2015, 8:19 pm)

Just tried the x2.00 velocity mod on a Big Boomer and it's not doing what was described above. It works almost identically to other detonators, such as the Ground Pounder. For short range targets,...

Rashere: Where is my white roll?

9 years ago (September 2, 2015, 7:44 pm)

It's a bug with the Big Boomer and other launchers/detonators that can't roll +mag due to their limited clip size. Effectively, in the "right" circumstances, you can use up all the viable rolls when...

Rashere: Big Boomer Mag Rolls Changes

8 years ago (December 4, 2015, 8:57 pm)

This is just correcting a discrepancy between the TN Big Boomers and the non-TN ones.

8 years ago (December 7, 2015, 11:49 pm)

I switched the TN BBs to the same bonus group as the non-TN ones, which includes both +mag and +fire rate.

Rashere: Big Boomer Mag Rolls Changes

8 years ago (December 8, 2015, 3:24 am)

Nope! It's enough that there's a guaranteed item with a jackpot bonus in the pot. Don't need to make it the absolute best possible gun.

Rashere: Big Boomer Mag Rolls Changes

8 years ago (December 8, 2015, 3:24 am)

It's tradeable. Generally speaking, the harder something is to get, the more powerful it can be.

Rashere: Big Boomer Mag Rolls Changes

8 years ago (December 9, 2015, 1:45 am)

While looking into this a bit more, I also noticed that some Big Boomer weapons could roll +mag masteries while others could not.

To balance things out, I'm going to standardize that in the other...

- All Big Boomers can roll +mag rarity bonuses. Previously, some could, some couldn't.
- No Big Boomers will be able to roll +mag masteries. Previously, some could, some couldn't....

Rashere: Big Boomer Mag Rolls Changes

8 years ago (December 9, 2015, 3:44 am)

Generally, fire rate goes alongside mag. The no-mag tables tend to be for one-shot guns where increasing the fire rate has minimal effect.

Rashere: Big Boomer Mag Rolls Changes

8 years ago (December 9, 2015, 3:44 am)

Oh, yeah. Sorry. The change was just to move the rarity bonus to point to the same table for all the boomers, which now is the normal detonator table that includes mag and fire rate.

This won't...

8 years ago (January 19, 2016, 2:35 pm)
