    Question about Northstar Flares

    Do the individual shots fired by the Flare count as explosive? I mean will perks that positively effect explosions and explosive damage work with the Flare?

    Mad Bomber (30% extra damage per enemy struck by the blast) definitely works. I haven't tested any other explosive perks with my Flares.

    FYI, Increased mag size does not help with the long load speed on this weapon. I know it's not totally related, but nice to know...

    How are you pulling off +12 rounds in a 1 round weapon when pistol clips are a fraction modifier?

    yea you can have extra mag in a 1 shot weapon, cause i got a Green Northstar flare with Syphon that has a +4 mag without mods, which is interesting to use (if I fire at the ground next to me, sometimes i take damage and are then healed, due to syphoning myself...)

    Would make for a really awkward moment if you were trying to kill yourself.
