Unique Modifications[edit | edit source]
White Phosphorous Shells[edit | edit source]
White Phosphorous Shells causes each shell that is fired out of the Boomstick to have 50% of its damage be converted to fire damage, as well as potentially igniting the enemy. Not to be confused with the Deepcore 40mm PGL's Incendiary Compound, the weapon does not lose 50% damage.
