To obtain the Phantom Flame Legendary Pistol in a definite way, you will need to engage in the Pango and Bango boss battle. For this, you will need to arrive at the ‘Tendercage Ripper Drill Site’ location in the region of Carcadia Burn. Once here, fight and defeat the boss, and they will drop the Phantom Flame Legendary Pistol right after for you to collect and equip immediately.
This pistol also has a rare chance to be available as a drop from legendary loot sources. This includes the Red Chest, Golden Chest, and Key Chests, as well as other bosses. You always have the option to farm a particular boss you have defeated by using Moxxi’s Big Encore machine and replay the fight to have a chance of the legendary weapon drop.

The Phantom Flame comes with the ‘Midday’ special effect. This pistol can not only use the zoom-in feature to lock in on targets, but it also instantly fires the entire round of the magazine. For this duration, your pistol technically turns into a rifle, gunning down with incendiary flames any enemy on the spot. This is a great weapon to use when facing opponents with higher HP or in boss battles.
