I'm currently using a Liquid Sniper that does 403 damage and 200% Criticals, and 98% accuracy. I'm just wondering if there's any better rifles than that that people have found, and where. I'm level 34 right now, and have had that rifle since level 23. I have yet to find a better one.

Mine does 503 damage causes fire damage x4 with high elemental chance has 25 bullets in the clip and has about 3.7 fire rate. It is the bees knees.

PS. I'm a level 50

The Volcano sniper is pretty damn good. It's a legendary sniper with absolutely massive fire damage. Seriously, it's insane.

Not found a decent sniper yet but a machinegun with 99.3 accuracy, no recoil and a 2,3x scope counts as one in my opinion. 105 damage, 4x explosions, high elemental chance, rof of 12 and magazine of 81 doesn't hurt either.

Yeah I've heard that the red text in some of the unique guns means something... like it adds an extra effect....

I love that gun so much... it has saved my ass so many times against those damn Playthrough 2 enemies.

I have another Sniper Rifle that does 100 more base damage than it, yet the Volcano kills everything quicker.

Pele demands a sacrifice!

It's probably the only rifle that a Sniper specced Mordecai can use that rivals a Gunslinger spec wielding a Masher revolver. Those things are obscenely powerful.

Can't wait to find one...

The volcano is also super accurate, you can even no-scope effectively with it.

16?! Holy shit, i thought it was only about 10. Are you still holding four rifles on you for level 30 odd?

Add maxed Gun Crazy to a masher and you've got a 40% chance to hit twice with each shot. With higher end ones that's be around 200x14 damage, with 70-80 accuracy. And a scope.

Nah, I sold them as they were pretty much useless, ones with less than 95 accuracy etc.

Yeah I think I need to be lvl 37 for my Volcano, and im 21 I think :S
