To "farm" these items, it is recommended to wait to collect the mission that causes the enemy to appear until after Playthrough 2, to increase the item's level to its maximum potential. Non-Respawnable Unique Enemy Drop: Most notably King Wee Wee's Wee Wee's Super Booster.Lady Finger and The Chopper fall into this category. Almost all mission items can be re-acquired this way, except for Chiquito Amigo, Athena's Wisdom and The Spy (to a certain degree). For example, Scar is the target enemy of T.K.'s Life And Limb, and after the mission's completion, he has a small chance of the mission reward, T.K's Wave. However, in some cases, there is a unique enemy related to the mission that will gain a chance to drop the item after the mission is completed. Mission Reward: A mission reward can only be obtained once, making these items a theoretic one-time only reward.Re-acquiring the unique item simply involves finding and killing the enemy again. Respawnable Unique Enemy Drop: For example, Bone Head and Sledge will always drop their Bone Shredder and Sledge's Shotgun.The re-availability of unique items can be broken down in several groups: It is when trying to farm a unique item more than once that things get more complicated. In Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, vending machines can also sell Uniques.ĭuring a normal playthrough of Borderlands, almost every unique item can be acquired once, with no particular effort. While some Unique items are guaranteed drops (such as Deadlift's Vandergraffen), most merely have a moderate chance of being dropped. In Borderlands 2, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, and Borderlands 3, most Unique items that are not gifted as mission rewards are not wielded by the enemy that drops them, with only a small handful of exceptions. Exceptions include the Lady Finger, which is found in a mission-related stash, and The Chopper, which has no guaranteed drop location, and can only be farmed. Note that in both cases, these are always guaranteed drops. The weapon will almost always be related to the mission/character that gives it, though there are exceptions. Baha will give his T.K's Wave after completing T.K.'s Life And Limb. The earliest example is The Clipper from Nine-Toes. The item was previously wielded by a unique enemy.Most of the Unique items in Borderlands are acquired in one of two ways: 9 Names and Locations (Tiny Tina's Wonderlands).7 Names and Locations (Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel).
