Special Weapon Effects

Beyond Groovy – Shoots rockets. Expends 6-round clip with one pull of the trigger.

Usage & Description

The Boom Stick is similar to Sledge's Shotgun. Both guns have an accuracy of zero, and both guns empty their magazines in one pull of the trigger. However, the Boom Stick sports a unique Carnage barrel as a mandatory part of its build. For the rare player that prefers a carnage-style shotgun, there are better options available.

Drop Guide

• Drops from Baron Flynt.

Notes

• May spawn with any accessory. See Carnage for the details about the effects of elemental accessories on this weapon.
• May spawn with the Friendly Fire accessory. The weapon's title will appear as an un-prefixed "Fire." Like a normal Friendly Fire Carnage, the weapon will NOT be incendiary.
• Will only fire in bursts of 6 shots with upgraded ammo capacities.

Trivia

• The name and red text is a reference to Sam Raimi's Army of Darkness movie. Ash, the main character, introduces a shotgun as his "boomstick" when traveling back in time, and commonly uses the word "groovy" when acknowledging an upgrade to his armaments.^[1]

Mechanics

The Boom Stick effect comes from the BoomStick_barrel3_Carnage barrel. It is based on barrel3_Carnage. It provides a huge boost to accuracy, a light boost to damage, and severely penalizes spread. The Boom Stick always comes with mag4, and is made of BoomStick_Material, which is equivalent to Material_Torgue_2. Please see stat modifiers for an explanation on how to interpret all of these modifiers.
