To obtain the Hellwalker in Borderlands 4, players must complete the quest “The Cursed Artifacts,” where they battle through waves of enemies in the Faction War zone. Successfully defeating the final boss will reward you with this powerful shotgun, known for its devastating capabilities.

Getting the Hellwalker in Borderlands 4

The legendary **Hellwalker** shotgun is back in **Borderlands 4**, and it’s as epic as ever! If you love shotguns that not only pack a punch but also deliver killer guitar riffs, then you’re in for a treat. Let’s dive into how to snag this beast and some tips that will level up your play.

To get your hands on the Hellwalker, you’ll need to push through the first area of the campaign until you hit **Terminus Range**. It might take a few hours, but everyone’s favorite robot, **Claptrap**, will keep your spirits high as you progress.

How to Score the Hellwalker

Once you’re in the **Terminus Range**, head over to **The Old Scrape dig site** in **Cuspid Climb**. This dig site is super easy to find—just follow the main road from the Fadefields region, take a right at the fork, and you’ll see a silo nearby. It’s here that you need to farm the **Saddleback** and **Immortal Boneface** bosses to finally get the Hellwalker. Oh, and don’t worry about grinding too hard; there’s a **Moxxi Big Encore** machine and vending options right there to make your life easier.

But heads up! Enemies here will definitely be tougher than you, especially if you rush over right after unlocking this area. Make sure you’ve got some missions under your belt or do a little XP farming to make it a fair fight.

The Hellwalker is a **Jakobs** shotgun, meaning it’s got that high-damage nature you want. Unlike other ordinary guns, it features the **Soothslayer** perk, which allows it to shoot in a unique pentagon formation while rocking out to a heavy metal guitar riff. How awesome is that?

Recently, it had a weird phase where it shifted to **kinetic damage**—a bug, really—but it’s back to incendiary damage now. The cool thing is, kinetic damage may have been better in some ways since it offers equal damage across all resistances. You could argue it had its pros and cons!

Build Tips for the Hellwalker

One of the best parts about the Hellwalker is its versatility. You can fit it into just about any build. Whether you’re doing a **Rafa speed** or **kinetic bleed Vex**, it’s solid. However, it shines particularly bright with **Amon builds** like **Calamity** or **Cybernetics**. Skills like **Into the Fray** and **Maiming Strike** work wonders with the Hellwalker. Pair it with those, and you’ll be a one-person wrecking crew!

Want to rack up even more loot? Check out the following tips:

• Farm Efficiently: Use the save point near the Old Scrape dig site. After defeating the bosses, save, quit, and reload to respawn them quickly.
• Utilize Your Skills: Make sure your skills complement the Hellwalker’s damage output. Experiment with different builds to see what works best for your playstyle.
• Team Up: If you’re finding it tough solo, grab some buddies. Co-op play can make boss battles a breeze and allows for better loot sharing!
• Stay Constantly Mobile: The Hellwalker excels in close combat, so always be on the move to dodge incoming attacks while dishing out your damage.

Now that you’re armed with knowledge and tips, go out there and make some noise with the Hellwalker! Happy hunting!
