Katagawa’s Revenge in Borderlands 4

Trust me, it’s totally worth it! Here’s how you can get your hands on this legendary sniper and some tips to make the process easier.
How to Get Katagawa’s Revenge in Borderlands 4
Your main target is the **Driller Hole boss** located in **Queen’s Cradle**, northeast of Carcadia Burn, right near the Lowrise safehouse. Before you can face him, you need to complete the **Unpaid Tab main mission**. This mission sends you into the area alongside Zane to check out the Ripper Queen’s activities, leading up to battling Driller Hole.
Once you beat Driller Hole, you can easily farm him for legendary drops because he’s super close to the safehouse. He can drop other top-tier gear too, so you might find some cool weapons while farming. One player even grabbed the G.M.R. assault rifle while hunting for Katagawa’s Revenge!
Weapon Details
Katagawa’s Revenge has two modes thanks to its unique Stormcloud perk. In **incendiary mode**, you’ll fire flaming orbs that explode over a large area, which is perfect for taking out groups of enemies. Switch to **shock mode**, and you’ll create lightning turrets that zap your enemies continuously. This versatility means it works well with builds focusing on high fire rate or ammo efficiency like Harlowe or Rafa.
