- This article is about the unique rocket launcher that appears in Borderlands. For other uses, see Roaster (Borderlands 2).
The Roaster is a Unique Rocket Launcher manufactured by Maliwan.
Examples are on the talk page.
Special Weapon Effects
Gonna cook someone today – Always incendiary.
Usage & Description
The Roaster has no special effect, apart from being guaranteed incendiary. It is always blue rarity or above, but has no limitations on the parts it can spawn with. It should simply be used according to its barrel type (Helix, etc.). Because of the weapon's lack of effect, and lack of Title or Prefix, The Roaster is, at best, just as good as the equivalent Rocket Launcher, but never better.
Drop Guide
- Drops from Taylor Kobb.
Notes
- Instead of having the typical Maliwan shades of blue, The Roaster is black.
- May spawn with the Maliwan Rhino barrel, causing rockets in flight to detonate multiple times.
Mechanics
The Roaster effect comes from the TheRoaster_acc5_Incendiary accessory. It is exactly the same as the standard acc5_Incendiary accessory, apart from increased tech level, which has no effect on Rocket Launchers. The Roaster has material TheRoaster_Material, which is almost as good as Material_Maliwan_3. Please see stat modifiers for an explanation on how to interpret all of these modifiers.
