Named Guns (Small Spoilers)
To anyone who is playing Borderlands: I would like to ask you to make note and possibly even post here where and how you found any special named guns like the Dove, Leviathan, Boom Stick, The Clipper, etc....
WARNING: THERE WILL BE SMALL SPOILERS IN THE FORM OF BOSS/NAMED ENEMY/QUEST NAMES.
Some are quest or boss drops but I'd like to keep a running list up here just so people know where and when to expect to see a certain gun.
in the video with a guy fighting pee wee the miget boss pee wee holds up a glowing object and bombs fly all over the place WHAT THE HELL IS IT!!!!!!! ZOMG I WANT IT!!
I'm almost positive that The Dove is a random weapon, which is strange given it's name. Mikey said he had never seen or even heard of it before.
I really wish all of the Boss drops weren't static. It takes away from the surprise element, especially when re-doing boss runs.
for some boss fights a wish they were random but not all i want some of the bossess weapons like PEE WEES!!!
u guys sure that boss drops are static? I thought they dropped one weapon for sure and other random ones at the same time, and does anyone know if they took away how you could get the gun that they guy you killed was using?
ive seen vids of bosses dropping several guns upon dying but some are just set to drop on some bosses...maybe peewees magic bomb stick
Clipper - Nine-Toes
Lady Finger - Grave on the way to Nine-Toes (quest)
Bonecrusher (I think that's the name) - Bonehead
T.K.'s Wave - Quest reward
I know I'm missing a few, anyone care to confirm?
i can confirm that ALL gun drops are not static. while the naming convention for some of these guns (such as Clipper, Lady Finger, etc..) is fixed, the attributes of the guns themselves CAN vary from player to player, at least on a co-op game. was playing split-screen w/ a friend last night (i was Brick, he was Mordecai) and after completing the quest that got us TK's Wave, we noticed that the guns didn't even look the same. upon further review, mine had a higher rate of fire, faster reload time & even a x1.5 scope that was not on his version of the same gun... perhaps the guns dropped by enemies/bosses will be the same as there is only 1 of each, but the guns received as rewards in a co-op game can/do differ bc there are actually multiple versions genereated by the system. any thoughts/similar experiences w/ this?
Once you get to New Haven and do a mission for the guy who owns all the gun vendors, you get The Spy, a Lvl 23 SMG. It's pretty nice.
On my Mordecai, after beating the final level of the arena I got this really strong Blue Dahl Scoped Revolver Pistol, does 111 damage, 88 something accuracy, and 1.1 fire rate, There's some effects that go with it, but I cant check right this second.

The Roaster sounds special, but I don't know how to get it, maybe next week ;D
