How to get it
The Spore Launcher only drops in missions, from gun cases (amber) dropped by enemies, bosses and mission wins. It can drop once you’re level 10 or higher: gear more than 2 levels above you never drops.
Elite is the grade rolled on 0% of drops on tier-1 maps, 10% of drops on tier-2 maps, 32% of drops on tier-3 maps, and 45% of tier-3 boss drops. See loot and drops.
A gun you already own is scrapped for gold when it drops again.
Best classes for it
- Arcanist: its innate toxic triggers on every shot during Empower.
- Medic: it heals, which keeps the Medic (and the squad) standing.
