README

After years of playing BL2, I've found that I basically never use most Torgue weapons, outside of various named legendaries/uniques and the occasional specific part combos, because the gyrojet speed was just too much of a detriment for me. So, I figured rather than continue to never use these weapons, I should just speed 'em up and have a wider pool of weapons available to me!

This mod improves the speed of all gyrojet-based projectiles by 3x, which also affects other Torgue-barrel-provided projectiles on ARs, like grenades on Jakobs and Dahl ARs. Rocket speeds are also buffed by 3x, since I nearly always take Vladof launchers over other brands. Vladof launchers do get a buff, but only get a much-smaller 1.4x. E-Tech launchers only get 2x.

Many Unique/Legendary/Seraph/etc Torgues also get a buff, though those are generally more slight. Here's the list of specific named gear that's been given a bit of a boost:

  • 12 Pounder
  • Ahab
  • Badaboom
  • Boom Puppy
  • Bunny
  • Carnage
  • Hive
  • KerBlaster
  • Landscaper
  • Mongol
  • Norfleet
  • Nukem
  • Pocket Rocket (though the buff is identical to UCP's Pocket Rocket buff)
  • Pyrophobia
  • Seeker
  • Swordsplosion
  • Tunguska
  • Unicornsplosion

I am of course well aware that speeding up these projectiles is getting rid of one of the main balances meant to counteract the generally-increased damage output these weapons are capable of, but I have never been one to shy away from OP gear.
