Good corrosive weapon?
I started the COV slaughter today, and my god. I realized how utterly ♥♥♥♥ my corrosive weapons are. Currently the only good corrosive weapon i have is the cutsman, but the hardened tink badasses are so tiny that its really hard to hit with the cutsman. I tried other weapons such as:
hornet
crossroads
trevonator

but they all take FOREVER to deplete the armor bar. Any suggestions?

Oh yeah, forgot to mention, im on Mayhem 4

I use roisens thorns and hornet for armored enemies, even at m4, specially hornet

Depends on class used. Any anointed corrosive weapon with damage buff will work such as Breath of Dying, Kaos or Anarchy (stupidly OP in all forms and shapes). Also looks like corrosive is pretty much outclassed by cryo given that 2nd is also neutral to flesh and does just a bit less damage to armor than corrosive.

breath of the dying is amazing corossive rifle for the mobs, it have special effect when u kill someone is releasing lot of corossive bobbles that melts enemies like nothing, even if u kill 2-3 mobs next to the boss he will die in a second

try a cryo weapon for those tinks; or theres some weapons like anarchy, lob and krakatoa that you really dont need to match elemental weaknesses with and can just power through anything without an immunity

arctic night hawkin with a decent buff anointment rips into armored tinks real good, the burst fire has no delay between bursts so you can spam to lay down a lot of damage quick, between mine having 125% to named/badass/bosses to my shield giving 50% more cryo and grenade giving 50% more radiation after I put a burning line under them with fracture? they're toast.

A lob, no matter what element will tear throug everything despite the so called nerf. Of course if you have a corrosive one even better.

just a note, night hawkin will change between fire & cryo during in-game day or night, which is not shown on the item card

Do you have the second dlc ? Because there you can get the clairvoyance AR from jakobs, its a world drop but from "Kritchy" (Hammerlock Hunting) located in Cursehaven you get a increased drop chance, and farming that gun was still good. It does Cryo damage an goes very well trough shield, armor... and with the right anointment this AR hits very hard and its fun to play with it. Anyway the Breath of the Dying, Roisen´s Thorns, Boom Sickle ( specially with corrosive) goes also pretty good.

It seems that the 125% to named badass/bosses does not work like that the most people think, i also go wrong with that. Moxy have a good video and he explain what the think about that, i can not say if he is right, but the video is worth to see it.

They didnt ask if a weps boring or not, just what a good wep to use it. Of course people will say the op weps

Also, "op" isnt boring. I find it fun ripping apart mobs on the highest mayhem
Lord Of War Apr 10, 2020 @ 5:28am 
Yeah, Lobs is the answer. Got 5 of them and switch between shock/cryo/radiation/toxic depending on the extra bar above an enemy.

Agreed, he asked for a good corrosive weapon.

Krakatoa, the lob or anarchy are not "good corrosive weapon" even if talkin about the corrosive variants.

They are simply overpowered weapons that ignore element affinities etc.

Again, good weapons, viable even on m4, are roisens thorns and the hornet, and they are corrosive, so it seems like a good answer.
