Catalyst Class Mod Question

I have two identical Catalyst Class Mods with one difference: One is Maliwan, the other Anshin.

They are both 30 cooldown, 3 phoenix, 4 girl power, 3 intuition, 33 team shield regen, with a sell price of $2284580.

My question is, is there any difference between the two? They look slightly different and, again, one is Maliwan, the other Anshin. Is there a hidden difference?

There is no hidden stat, they are exactly the same.

What about when the same two mods have the same specs, but one has a lower price than the other?

The exact same, but with a different price. I thought I had heard that there were hidden stats on some of these, or maybe they just function differently or something?

These two classmods have different parts, Maliwan is 650, Anshin is 660 so that’s why they have different price, I think.

I’ve never heard of any hidden differences, but I know from my experience that one is rarer than the other, for example Atlas Marcenary with Ammo Regen where usually are Dahl or Vladof Gunslinger with Ammo Regen most of the time these are S&S.

There has to be a reason for the price difference, though. It couldn’t be just because of the part. The part itself must impact performance somehow, right? Or is it purely cosmetic in this case?

I would think so, logically it makes sense, if it has a different part, that part should work differently, but this is Borderlands so… Also there is no evidence to prove otherwise.

So for now, I would say this.

Sorry to necro this thread, just bored and going thru some not-too-old threads, but just in case you’re still playing here’s your answer - (which Tek answered in part) …like he said , one of those mods is a 650 and one is a 660. 660s are as good as they get. The “6” part is that one that has the curved line going over the upper part of the part. At lower levels, you will notice a difference in the stats between a 650 and 660. At level 55, they become exactly the same. The 650s “catch up” to the 660, which is capped at 55. However, just like guns, the quality of the parts make a difference in price. 6 is still a higher quality part than 5 regardless of the stats, so there’s your extra money.

Yeah I was collecting each brand of the top shields for the longest time lol. This answers a lot. I thought it might have been that the find items option is secretly selected on the more expensive one even though it isn’t listed on the item itself. Glad to finally have that resolved!
