Pricker is a unique SMG in Borderlands 3 manufactured by Hyperion. It is obtained from the mission Claw and Order.
Special Weapon Effects
What have they to say now? – -25% reload time. Fixed parts. Always radiation and uses 2 ammo per shot. Fires very slow needles that home onto enemies and stick on contact. Needles explode once four of them land on a target.
Usage & Description
The Pricker is generous with aiming due to its homing abilities, though its very low projectile speed makes it difficult to use on fast or distant enemies. It can do an impressive amount of damage once its needles detonate, though it burns though ammo rather fast and undetonated needles deal mediocre damage.
Notes
Trivia
