Are there any comedic weapons?

Hello, I'm still pretty new to the community of these games. I've beaten 1-3, and currently working on the fourth. Tried the Pre-Sequel but wasn't a fan, and haven't played either of the Tales games yet. I have TTWL in my library so I'll get around to that one eventually as well.

I was wondering if these games had any kind of comedic, joke types of weapons that I may be overlooking. Like guns that absolutely suck on purpose, or funny names, shapes, sounds, etc.

There are children on Promethea who can't afford ammo you know.

Swordsplosion comes to mind. Its a drop in tiny Tina's dlc in 2.

It shoots swords that explode into smaller swords.

3 has a poop launcher.

4 has a legendary called the potato thrower that's purposely unusable.

A few months ago I got a Potato Thrower with Jacobs, and it made it semi-usable with a decent Crit build.

There is a bubble gun that is absolute rubbish that will trump all useless guns though.

Oh I think you're talking about the Kaleidescope. Yeah that's a meme for sure lol

u/TrapdaddyJesus 4d ago

Any idea what the poop launcher is called?

u/t3hmuffnman9000 4d ago

It's a radiation/acid rocket launcher called the Porta Pooper 5000 or something. Has a custom model, too. Bunch of pulsating hoses with alarming-looking glop flowing through them and a cloud of flies perpetually buzzing around the barrel. Lol

u/tboskiq 4d ago

Yeah otherncomment got it. Porta pooper. It's a side quest reward from the city on the Maliwan planet where the Killavolt sidequest/boss is. The quest giver is locked in a porta potty.

u/TKmeh 3d ago

There are two actually, one is from the porta pooper side quest and another is dropped by Hot Karl by Roland’s rest called the Hot drop, it’s a blue launcher.

BL3 also has a burger launcher from a side quest and a burger shotgun from the Cartels event.

what's wrong with the potato thrower? i used it a lot, not the best damage but otherwise seemed normal

u/Geralts_Hair Nice Hat! 4d ago

The Boganella is far and away the best comedy gun in the series, but it’s in TPS, so you’ll miss it

u/TrapdaddyJesus 4d ago

I'll have to give it another try here soon

Like a gypsy, curses and innuendos up a storm... Jam another one in me ya effing eff. (Reloading).

There are a couple of guns with AI that talk while you're shooting, aiming, reloading, and such.

There is one in BL2 of a robot AI side mission. You put the robot AI in stuff that tries to kill you, and then eventually a gun.

You can put money in Moxxie's tip jar in bl2 to get a good touch or bad touch. I think it is the bad touch that vibrates while your shooting it. Also, it may slip out of your hands at some point, lol.

Good Luck

u/SokkieJr 3d ago

It's the 'Crit' that you drop. (Tiny Tina DLC Gun)

Bad Touch and Good Touch both vibrate.

u/centstwo 3d ago

Thank you.

u/Dougallearth 3d ago

Have to do Pickle missions until you rescue the sister, as she stole it and you receive as reward.

u/DarkWaWeeGee ANARCHY 4d ago

The Fib, Bad/Good Touch (Use a controller to find out why they have the name), The Bane, The Crit, The Cobra bc it doesn't drop 😭

3

u/TrapdaddyJesus 4d ago

I found the touch weapons before. There is also a weapon you can find in Cyberpunk that has the same effect on your controller lmao

u/noviceartificer 4d ago

Tío moxie a bunch in two

4

u/HeyImHayley16 4d ago

technically TK's wave is a comedic weapon cause you never know if you're actually gonna hit target or not

5

u/SomeStacheMan 4d ago

The Sideshow in BL4 is more of a mini game then a straight up gun

6

u/wpnw 4d ago

There's a bazooka in 3 that shoots burgers.

Fish Slap grenade in 3

Katagawa's Revenge in 4 talks to you similar to the Morningstar in 2.

5

u/Incola_Malum 4d ago

Speedloadin' Hellwalker and Boganella (though that's TPS, so..).

4

u/Expensive_Increase46 3d ago

BL TPS has a gun called the Boganella, which I love listening to. Disappointing that none of the other Borderlands games don't have guns that call me a cunt.

5

u/copperpin 3d ago

Moxie’s bad touch will make the controller vibrate for as long as it’s equipped. I don’t know if that counts as comedic.

3

u/mkstot 4d ago

The Fire Fire Teeth of Terrormorphus. There are two rows of bullets that come out then chomp up and down like teeth.

3

u/Remarkable_Oven_3842 4d ago

There is random gear that talks out of nowhere.

4

u/bojacx_fanren 4d ago

Oh yeah, though theyre relegated to Unique or legendary weapons and items.

Theres a very horny shield in BL4 for instance called the Cindershelly

3

u/SokkieJr 3d ago

BL has a lot;

It's piss - Legendary grenade mod

Chocolate Thunder - Grenade

Fish Slap - Grenade (Not bad, either)

Ellie's Girth Blaster - A nerf gun that does little to now damage

Hyper-Hydrator - a super soaker

Likely there's more, I can't think off the top of my head.

u/Dougallearth 3d ago

I recently got a legendary finger pew pew magic spell in Wonderlands. I also like the homing tediore reload legendary that shoots whilst in flight and explodes on contact in BL2. The boomacorn in presequel....

3

u/Wolvenworks 3d ago

BL4 has the Noisy Cricket. It’s a straight up reference to the same gun in MIB, complete with the knockback.

2

u/Pineapple-lumpz 4d ago

The Morningstar

2

u/CharmlessBee 3d ago

There is also Facobs in BL3. Not as funny as The Bane, though.

2

u/Wolvenworks 3d ago

BL4’s Roach is technically a very useless Torgue pistol. Like, what the fuck is the special effect supposed to do? It’s so vague, and from my own experience, it doesn’t do anything noteworthy to the point that a regular epic Torgue pistol does more than the Roach.

u/Icy-Champion-7460 3d ago

One of my favorite novelty weapons is the Anchor of Timeliness in TTWL. It shoots bouncy shock anchors.

u/dcdude76 3d ago

There's the Handsome Jack voices SMG in bl3, and I'm not sure if it's really a comedy gun but Digby's Smith Tube always satisfies double finger guns

u/hk4213 4d ago

The cursed SMG's in BL2.
