    I think it might be when a weapon comes with a mod slot? I dunno. I think I've seen even green quality weapons that had the red glowy effect, so it can't be rarity.

    Some glow red, some green, some blue. My understanding from alpha and beta was that these weapons already have an added attribute... red for fire, blue for electric, green for bio. They do added damage over time with these attributes.

    Incorrect. The 'flame' glow effect also appears on weapons dropped after killing mobs. These weapons can be modded, sold, or salvaged and do not vanish when you're out of ammo.

    From what I understand, these weapons are generally stronger in some fashion when compared to weapons of a similar type and rarity.

    Not rarity, the one 'red' drop I had earlier was just a normal, not-all-that-exciting white pistol; certainly nothing extraordinary or something I hadn't gotten before. I rather suspect it's just another bug, where a drop is being tagged incorrectly.

    I also noticed that those drops commonly came from a "subBoss" like the raider tank - i didnt pay atention, but perhaps it gave a key aswell. The ark key drops got the same red "orb".

    Ditto, happens with the white items and they didn't have an elemental either. Might be a left out item type or a bug.

    Is it better to out-monster the monster or to be quietly devoured?
