A quick question about off hand weapon bonuses

Borderlands 2 Salvador the Gunzerker
#1

When dual wielding Lady Fists does the primary gun get the 800% crit bonus of the off hand one?

#2

Pretty sure it does.

#3

I have a list of what is and isn’t affected but I can’t get 5o it till Monday. If you feel like it I found it on the old forums you can go look there its by chuck80

All crit bonus are shared by both guns

So yes, if you have a lady fist, the other gun gets +800% crit bonus, no matter the hand in which each is.
It also stack with off-weapon crit sources (like an evil monk COM for example)

And they stack: if you have 2 lady fists, you have 1600% crit bonus

Highest bonus possible is with a Lady fist (800% type A) and a Grog Nozzle (200% type B) which nets you 2400% in total.

Thanks gents- I just wanted to know what be most effective on using on Terra while he does his black hole attack- now I have something other than the Pimpernel to pop him with while avoiding being sucked in…

Here’s the list I found on the old forums awhile back. It as never got Ported.

It’s worth noting that all Badass Rank stats work for the offhand.

Unless I specifically mention it here, assume that it does work for the offhand.

I welcome contributions to this list, for example:
Something not mentioned here that doesn’t work for the offhand.
Something that I stated doesn’t work, that does work for the offhand.
I haven’t tested everything, so if I’m wrong or missed something, I welcome the opportunity to do more testing.

Equipment
Gun Damage, Recoil Reduction, Accuracy, Min/Max Accuracy and Accuracy Regen modifiers from Relics and Class Mods don’t work for the offhand.
Fire Rate, Reload Speed, Elemental Damage, Burn Damage, Burn Chance, and Critical Damage modifiers from Relics and Class Mods do work.
Exception: Fire Rate and Reload Speed boosts from Monk Class Mods don’t work for the offhand.

Magazine Size boosts from Class Mods do work.
Exception: Magazine Size boosts from Monk Class Mods don’t work for the offhand.
