Rhythm n' Bouzouki is a melee weapon exclusive to the Bad Seed DLC. It is a unique weapon which deals critical hits when you attack as soon as you hear the musical sound from your previous attack.

Details[]

  • Special Effects:
    • The weapon deals critical hits if you press the attack button with the correct “rhythm”.
    • The third hit with the weapon can be repeated continuously if the timing is correct.
  • Breach Bonus: 1 / 0.5 / 0.25
    • Base Breach Damage: 110 / 120 / 162.5 (220 / 240 / 488)
    • Base Breach DPS: 196 (474)
  • Combo Duration: 2 seconds
    • First Hit: 0.67 (0.47 + 0.2 + 0)
    • Second Hit: 0.72 (0.47 + 0.25 + 0)
    • Third Hit: 0.61 (0.31 + 0.3 + 0)
  • Tags: HeavyWeapon
  • Legendary Version:
    • Forced Affix: Fire on Hit
      • "Burns the enemy."

Notes[]

  • This weapon works similarly to Nerves Of Steel in the sense that you have to time your attacks to deal critical hits.
  • The base DPS is the DPS for the normal three-hit combo and not for continuing the combo with perfect timing.
  • The correct attack timing for critical hits for the third hit and onward is approximately 98bpm.
  • The first and second hit have different timings. The timing is indicated by the weapon flashing yellow and musical notes popping from the strike.
  • The third hit in this weapon's combo is considered a ranged attack and is therefore affected by ranged mutations such as Point Blank.

Trivia[]

  • The flavor text is a part of the lyrics from the song Get Rhythm by Johnny Cash.
