Extraordinary Weapon Effects
Effect name is ‘Now, you will rise’ – it deals with corrosive effect without any alternative firing mode. When activated, this effect forms a cloud that will deal constant corrosive damage whenever a player hits the enemy. Secondly, it increases the fire rate and reduces the charge time.
Borderlands 3 Cloud Kill – Description and Usage
Borderlands 3 Cloud Kill’s extraordinary effect constructs a powerful weapon for fighting non-armored enemies; the cloud and gun release consequential damage while targeting the single enemy. A player can attack with the chip damage for battle with the multiple enemies that will release the corrosive cloud with higher capabilities; it allows to save ammo and let it use for targeting other enemies.
The corrosive clouds block enemies’ vision very quickly because the clouds released are opaque; all these qualities make it the most effective gun that supports a player to clear many levels after achieving it.
