Borderlands 3 Best Weapons Guide
Below we have detailed some of the best weapons you can find in the game, especially in the early stages of your gameplay progression.
Cocky Flakker
This is a legendary weapon that is the absolute best weapon in taking down larger enemies, bosses and for crowd control. The Cocky Flakker fires off a series of rounds that explode like fireworks and deals a lot of damage in a decent size radius.
If you are looking for a Level 50, you need to go for the legendary hunt on Athenas where it is dropped from Chupacabratch. Seriously, this shotgun is a beast. You should definitely get your hands on one as soon as you can find it.
Ginormous Bangarang XL
This SMG is great to take down multiple enemies or a group of enemies that are nearby each other. The SMG fires bullets that spin up and down and hits enemies for a lot of damage. It is a legendary weapon that you must have in the game.
Subsidized The Butcher
If you want a fully automatic shotgun that will deal massive amounts of damage that punches through enemies with brute force, then this weapon should be your choice. With The Butcher, you can nail away enemies with 2-3 shots and then move on to the next without letting your finger off the trigger.
Stuffed Quadamizer
This weapon fires a series of radiation rocket rounds, that is followed by corrosive and then fire damage rounds. If you are the type of person that likes to see one weapon dealing all kinds of damage, then this is it. What is best is that it only requires reloading when it is done firing all the three types of rounds at the enemy.
Double Penetrating Boring Gun
This weapon is a really good weapon to fire off quickly without having to aim down sight. It sends out several sawblades that go rolling down the ground and then explode at the target. You can pair this weapon to deal that extra damage after you finish off a combo.
Smart-Gun XXL
There is a reason why this weapon is called a smart gun. This SMG can be thrown at the enemy when you have to reload it, and can also be thrown on the ground. What this does is that it will become a sort of turret that automatically keeps on targeting and firing at the enemies, and moves around on the ground. What’s not to like about that?
Eridian Fabricator
This legendary weapon is something special. Instead of firing away and dealing damage at the enemy, what it does is that it shoots out a supply of weapons each time you fire. You can basically start raining different weapons with this. With just one shot, you can have 5-6 weapons pour out from the muzzle.
Dastardly Headsplosion
This is a sniper rifle that you should definitely have. This sniper is best to deal critical damage when you target bosses from afar. It provides you with a lot of range that you can use to attack at the bosses for those sweetly timed critical hits.
Expert Storm
If you want a sniper rifle but are not a fan of aiming down the sight for the perfect hit, then this is the weapon for you. The Expert Storm fires of multiple shots that send out shock damage to enemies nearby. The only catch is that you need to be close enough with your targets to deal maximum amounts of damage.
