Borderlands 4 has a plethora of bosses to tackle, which come with an eye-watering amount of legendary drops to claim, so we’re here to help your farming runs with a complete breakdown of all the crucial info.
While Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford is seemingly on a never-ending battle with critics, telling unhappy fans to refund via Steam if they’re not content with the game, those working their way through Kairos have never-ending battles of their own with the wide range of bosses lurking around each corner.
Whether you’re chasing a specific drop or want to make sure there are no bosses that you’ve missed, we’ve got the guide to help.
