Bile Belcher is a shotgun in Wasteland 3: Cult of the Holy Detonation.

Description[]

This horrifyingly mutated creature seems to exist solely to vomit forth a never-ending stream of toxic bile, much like your ex.

Characteristics[]

Damage can be increased by using damage type conversion mods, making this weapon to benefit from various bonuses, as well as +99 Armor penetration, which negates target's armor completely.

Applying all bonuses (+8 Damage +93% Ranged damage) leads to the following result:
