Fireball is a unique grenade mod manufactured by Maliwan found in Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep. It can be dropped from fire mages and badass fire mages.

Special Weapon Effects[]

Porkchop sandwiches! – Always incendiary. Regenerates grenade ammo over time. Shoots a slow moving fireball straight forward that explodes on impact. When used, has a custom sound effect when thrown and the character may shout "Fireball!" while in the Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep DLC. 

Usage and Description[]

The Fireball is an incendiary grenade that travels in a perfectly straight line until it collides with something, be it target or wall, and then detonates instantaneously. The travel speed of the Fireball is quite slow, and thus is not well-suited for use in open areas. Without confined spaces to keep targets corralled, victims must be 'led' significantly to hit with the Fireball. The exception would be treants and stumpies which, being both exceptionally slow and vulnerable to fire, make perfect targets for the Fireball. So long as the grenade mod stays equipped, 1 grenade regenerates every 25 seconds.

Notes[]

  • The Fire Storm grenade mod is a legendary version of the Fireball.

Trivia[]

  • The Fireball gets its name from the Fireball spell of Dungeons & Dragons.
  • The flavor text is a reference to a series of G.I. Joe PSAs which have been edited and dubbed over with humorous dialog by Fensler Films. The seventh of these features a pair of kids who set their house ablaze. While stammering incoherently in fear, they are rescued by a Joe firefighter who sprints down the hallway towards the blaze yelling "Porkchop sandwiches!".
  • With Fireball equipped, Axton may also shout "Fireball!" when he deploys his Sabre Turret.
