Everything about Skalor is gross. His general lack of hygiene. His dual crustation rifles. And even his Targetmaster mode, formed when he combines with his crustation rifles, is gross; it's a double-barreled corrosive slime-shooter, which... well, shoots corrosive slime.

Also, when Bomb-Burst can't drain his victim's fuel, he'll settle for pelting them with his own corrosive slime shooter.

Still fuzzy on the concept of stun, Finback also uses a metal-corroding stun rifle that fires thick, viscous underwater slime, capable of stunning his targets into melted heaps of slag. He should probably stick to this gun for his and Misfire's sakes.
