+1 Blowthrough
Shooting an enemy that is afflicted with Corrosion, Sludge Puddle, or Neurotoxin will apply 2 Status Effects. The first one lasts 5 seconds, and each bullet that hits will increase the DPS by +3.2, up to a maximum of 30 stacks (96 DPS). After its duration expires, you must apply a new instance and start stacking it again. The second Status Effect lasts 4.5 seconds, and its duration can be refreshed. If an enemy dies while the second one is active, then they will explode and damage nearby enemies proportional to the number of active stacks of the first effect. The explosion does (60 + 20*stacks) Typeless Damage, and the radius is (0.5 + SqRt[stacks]) meters.

Loadout Guide

These two overclocks are very underwhelming separate, but people don't use them correctly. That's people's issue with them. Put these two together, and they become one righteous bug killing duo. Use Goo Bomber when bugs are heading at you in a straight line, and spam explosive reload on the larger enemies (Praets, Stingtails, Wardens, even Dreadnaughts.) If you didn't know, explosive reload + neuro-corrosive subata goes through heavy armor, like on oppressors and dreads, so that you can shoot from the front and deal damage. Bugs not in straight line? Backup: throw a Nerruotoxin grenade on the ground; throw directly down and it shouldn't roll. | Have fun violating the Geneva Convention!
