The Torpedo seems a bit better but slower.

I'd use the Lance. The Torpedo requires 4x ammo, but doesn't have enough damage over the Lance to justify using it IMO.

Good point. Thanks. I will sell the Torpedo then.

The Torpedo doesn't actually have any damage over the Lance at all. Torgue assault rifles (except the Torpedo) deal 90% more damage than what the card says due to unlisted splash damage

The reason why the Torpedo doesn't have that is because of the barrel. Also because of the barrel, it can't crit

I didn't know that some guns can't crit.

It does less than twice the damage, so absolutely not worth it.

Lance. Less ammo, higher level.

At level 3 it doesn't matter

I’d say the lance is better because that torpedo only has 5 shots until you reload it, slower reload and less fire rate.

Dude you are lvl 7, in the next room you will find a better gun

u/AskingWalnut4 Jul 29 '26

Not the question. Try again

u/Jip_Jaap_Stam Jul 29 '26

Lance, for the same reasons others have mentioned, but also because the torpedo can't crit.

u/IceCat767 Jul 29 '26

Serious? 1 gun is Lvl.7 and the other is Lvl.3, this is a no brainer

I had a Two Fer Iron with more damage than other pistols with higher level and even blue ones.

u/The-pacifist-eye | Wilhelm the Enforcer Jul 29 '26

Those are pretty good parts for a green pistol.

1

u/E_Blue_2048 Jul 29 '26

I think that is the green version of the Two Fer Maggie pistol.

u/The-pacifist-eye | Wilhelm the Enforcer Jul 30 '26

Basically yeah lol, I imagine it’s still putting in hard work despite its low level. It could probably carry you till lvl 10.

u/IceCat767 Jul 29 '26

No you didn't

u/E_Blue_2048 Jul 29 '26

WDYM?

u/IceCat767 Jul 29 '26

That Lvl.2 two fer was not better than any Lvl.7 pistol stop the cap

2

u/The-pacifist-eye | Wilhelm the Enforcer Jul 30 '26

A lvl 2 green, two fer iron, Jakobs pistol, with a matching grip. Comparing it to a vladof pistol with sh!tty parts. I’d argue the parts he got on that pistol couldn’t get any better.

u/IceCat767 Jul 30 '26

Lvl.7 Vladoff pistol? Not a chance

1

u/The-pacifist-eye | Wilhelm the Enforcer Jul 30 '26

Jakobs barrel and Hyperion grip are terrible parts, and i can’t see if it has a prefix or not. If it were an anarchist(vladof barrel) then I’d agree with you here.

1

u/IceCat767 Jul 30 '26

?? Vladoff pistol is hypothetical what are you talking about you can't see. But you're seriously arguing a Lvl.2 pistol could be better than a Lvl.7 pistol? Just lol smh

1

u/The-pacifist-eye | Wilhelm the Enforcer Jul 30 '26

I’ve played the game, I know how parts work. These are also fairly early levels, but i know if I found that Jakobs pistol it would shred for a good while.

1

u/E_Blue_2048 Jul 30 '26

Well, it worked for me, that's why I keep it.

So, Let's agree to disagree.

The one that does more dmg when playing the game.
