Special Weapon Effects

Would I lie to you? – All figures shown on weapon card are false. Weapon's real stats are highly variable.

Observed effects include:

• Shots with parabolic drop-off. Projectiles impact the ground then bounce away from the shooter.
• Enormously high critical damage.
• Rounds slowing down if more than one is fired.
• Firing a 5 or 7 pellet spread that travels at ~25% speed and passes through enemies.
• Projectiles that ricochet after impact with any enemy or surface into 9 pellets in a circular pattern and may cause bonus damage after ricochet.

Any of the above shot behaviors can be modified by the typical Hyperion prefixes "redundant" and "dynamic." In general, a Fibber will have some means of inflicting high damage. Stats for any given Fibber are constant and do not change after it has been generated.

Notes

The Fibber has 3 unique barrels.

• The first type is that bullets are comprised of pellets like that of a shotgun. It travels with a slow velocity to it as well.
• The second type is that bullets shatter upon impact or ricocheting off walls, creating pellets. It bounces off walls if it doesn't hit anything and travels with the same velocity as normal pistols' bullets. For some reason, when the shatter effect and Gaige's Close Enough skill occur at the same time, the ricocheted "homing" pellets will do 100% damage, thus ignoring the -50% bullet damage penalty from Gaige's skill. This makes that version of the Fibber truly game breaking, as it will receive the full +1050% gun damage from 600 stacks of anarchy, even when mindlessly shooting at anything.
  • Due to the lack of a yellow multiplier to the damage each of the 9 ricocheted bullets will receive the full bonus of amplify shields. Especially with The Bee this variant becomes one of the most powerful weapons in the game, due to the "damage per ammo"-ratio, its rate of fire and the fact, that the player doesn't need to aim properly.
• The third type is that bullets are shot in an arc, like that of the Tinderbox. Bullets also ricochet if it hits walls, etc.
