A Jakobs-made “Rainbow Barrage” shotgun that sprays droplets of three elements Corrosive, Cryo, and Incendiary each time you fire. The droplets arc and leave a rainbow attribute paddle on the surface they hit. Being Jakobs, it ricochets on critical hits.
🧩 Origin of the red text The name and flavor are based on the internet meme “Rainbow Puke (rainbow vomit)” (PC Gamer / MentalMars). “I think I’m gonna…” is the words said just before vomiting, representing the behavior of scattering multi-element droplets.
