Special Weapon Effects 
Edit
We Don't Need No Water... - Extended damage over time with increased contagion.
Usage & Description Edit
The Hellfire is widely regarded as the most overpowered weapon in Borderlands. The weapon's strength doesn't lie in its stats (although the accessory turns combinations of even mediocre parts into monsters), but in its incendiary effect. All of its shots will ignite, setting opponents on fire. Most importantly, the effect stacks, dealing massive incendiary Damage Over Time.
The Hellfire is strong against virtually all enemies on Pandora. Even enemies resistant to Fire (like Guardians), succumb to the sheer quantity of flames generated by the Hellfire.
Notes Edit
- "Combustion" is the only legitimate prefix.
Trivia Edit
- The flavor text is a reference to the 1984 song "The Roof Is On Fire" by Rock Master Scott & the Dynamic Three. The complete lyric is "We don't need no water! Let the motherfucker burn!" [1]
- The Bloodhound Gang later borrowed the lyric in their own song, "Fire Water Burn".
Mechanics Edit
The Hellfire effect comes from acc5_Maliwan_HellFire. Apart from the effect, it provides extra tech and does not reduce damage. Please see stat modifiers for an explanation on how to interpret all of these modifiers.
