And being a Jakobs, the weapon is somewhat basic elsewhere, with no elemental features. It can still be solid at close or mid-range, though this typically isn't how a sniper would be used in the first place.
The issue is, these shots tend to disperse and often miss in advance of their target. Basically, it can be best exploited on slower bosses and larger baddies in general. The weapon fires off clusters of five projectiles which can inflict some real pain if they all actually manage to hit their mark.
Though this one is particularly unique in a number of ways, to the point where it can take some getting used to.Ī carryover from the original Borderlands, this weapon might throw off some newcomers with its spotty accuracy and weird projectiles.
Like most on this list, the Skullmasher's mechanics and features don't quite fall in line with the traits of a standard sniper.
