Borderlands 3 became one of the best selling games in the history of 2K. The new game in the Borderlands franchise has been praised by critics and fans. Last week, developers released hotfixes for the game which fixed many lingering issues and bugs. You can check out last week’s hotfixes by heading here.

Borderlands 3 game was released on September 13, 2019, on Xbox One, Microsoft Windows, PS4 and on October 30, 2019, on macOS. The game will also be made available on the new cloud gaming platform “Google Stadia”. It has been developed by Gearbox Software and published by 2K games.

Borderlands 3

Borderlands 3 features the story of Vault Hunters who reassemble on the orders of Crimson Raiders and arrive on Pandora. The game features four new characters which include the following: FL4K, Amara, MOZE, and ZANE.

Cut to now, last week developers released a new update to the game which added a plethora of new content to the game. Take a look at the major highlights and patch notes down below.

Borderlands 3

Takedown at the Maliwan Blacksite

Lorelei has recruited the Vault Hunters to destroy a top-secret weapon Maliwan has been developing at their Blacksite. You and your squad should prepare for an extreme challenge because this content is balanced for four players at level 50.

You can gain access to the Blacksite via a mission found on Sanctuary III after completing the main campaign with that character.

Borderlands 3

Takedowns feature special rules not found in the rest of the game! Respawning is disabled, so make sure you and your co-op partners get Second Wind or you’ll spectate until the team wipes. If you do die, you’re not out permanently!

Die during the first half, you’ll get to rejoin your team if they defeat the Valkyrie Squad. If you’re out the second half, but your team manages to defeat Wotan The Invincible, you’ll get to respawn to enjoy the rewards you didn’t completely earn!

Make sure your squad is in the session before you throw the switch inside the Air Lock, or anyone who joins after the switch is thrown joins as a spectator!

Mayhem 4

Mayhem 4 is here for players looking for the toughest challenge in the game! Mayhem 4 adds another increase to enemy health, increases the loot drop chances, and adds a set of new Legendaries!

Because the health value greatly increased, Mayhem 4 also slightly adjusts the random modifier system. Mayhem 4 will only roll one positive modifier for the player and one enemy bonus modifier.

We want players to try different builds without severely hampering their ability to take down enemies in Mayhem 4. Note that Mayhem 1-3 are unchanged.

In addition to increasing enemy health and adjusting the modifiers, Mayhem 4 contains new Legendary weapons and class mods for players to hunt. These new pieces of gear will contribute to new builds and new ways to kill enemies!

To support Mayhem 4, we changed the Mayhem station slightly. Players will activate Mayhem through the center pillar and increase or decrease Mayhem levels by using the pillars on each side. Looking forward, we will monitor the challenge of Mayhem 4 closely.

We’re working hard on Mayhem 2.0, which will add brand new gameplay additions to Mayhem Mode in the future. Until then, we hope you enjoy the challenge and new loot!

Borderlands 3 update

Bank Expansion

All characters now begin the game with 20 bank slots instead of 10. The existing Bank SDUs will give everyone a total of 100 available spaces. An additional 10 Bank SDUs are available to purchase in Marcus’s shop on Sanctuary III using the in-game cash currency, each awarding 20 spaces, for a grand total of 300 total bank spaces!

Dedicated Loot Pools for Bosses

All bosses have been updated with new loot pools that give them dedicated Legendary items to drop. Players can now discover which bosses drop their favorite gear and more easily farm their favorite items. Let the hunt begin!

Additional Vending Machines

The following environments have received additional vending machines. They can typically be found before bosses or the mid waypoint in larger environments:

  • Athenas
  • Atlas HQ
  • Lectra City
  • Jakobs Estate
  • Voracious Canopy
  • Tazendeer Ruins
  • The Pyre of Stars
  • Target Dummy

How to Get the Good Juju Gun in Borderlands 3

The latest update to the game added new loot to the game via Mayhem 4 modifier. It can be unlocked once players beat the main campaign. Now, players can get a Good Juju weapon which is an improvisation of Bad Juju from the Destiny 2 game.

Players are required to enable Mayhem 4 modifier in Sanctuary 3 to get the Good Juju gun. Then they need to kill The Rampager boss which can be found in a pit located in The Forgotten Basilica on Promethea.

Good Juju Gun

Players will get the Good Juju legendary rifle from loot once they kill ‘The Rampager boss.’ Players can only get this weapon from Mayhem 4’s version of The Rampager. However, ‘The Rampager’ has two brief immunity phases so it won’t be easy to kill him.
