Are you already in the process of exploiting the Handsome Jackpot? Then you should especially keep an eye on these weapons from the Borderlands 3 DLC.
This is how worthwhile the weapon hunting in the DLC is: If you have already played the Moxxi DLC, perhaps on one of the Mayhem levels, you may have already noticed it. The drop rate in the DLC is noticeably high – legendary weapons seem to appear more often than usual.
A dream for players who mainly want to collect good loot. Accordingly, the DLC is also well received overall. But which weapons are the best? Some favorites have already emerged among the players. We will show them to you here!
The best legendary weapons in the Handsome Jackpot
New loot in the DLC: Even before the DLC went live, several legendary items from the Handsome Jackpot were discovered. Now, the list of legendary weapons has been expanded with some newcomers – which ones are particularly worthwhile?
AutoAime
This is what the AutoAime can do: The AutoAime is classified as a sniper, but it shoots a lot of bullets in succession that deal significant damage. Fans of the Lyuda will enjoy this new firearm, especially since it fires seeking bullets – useful!
Reddit user Bucking_Fastard is particularly a fan of the weapon if you find it with a corrosion effect: “It’s really strong on Mayhem 2.” The corrosion AutoAime is very useful in the casino – after all, you’ll encounter many armored Loader Bots here.
Here you can find the AutoAime: You can find the AutoAime in all versions as a world drop. Freddie the Traitor drops it with increased probability.
Slow Hand
This is what the Slow Hand can do: Paul Tassi from Forbes is a big fan of the Slow Hand: “There are two shotguns in the DLC, the Slow Hand and the Heartbreaker. This one is the good one.” It is particularly suitable for dealing elemental damage to enemies – after all, it fires a large energy ball of the respective element. Fans also remember the cannon from Borderlands 2.
Here you can find the Slow Hand: You can find the Slow Hand randomly as a world drop or at DEGEN-3.
Lucky 7
This is what the Lucky 7 can do: If you want to deal a lot of damage and see your opponents disappear in a bright flash of light, then the Lucky 7 is for you! The legendary pistol is especially suited for Moze players as it perfectly fits the shooter’s abilities. You can see what this looks like in the video here:
User nanowaffle summarizes it very aptly: “I’m not a scientist. But it looks like a lot of damage.” Indeed!
Here you can find the Lucky 7: The Lucky 7 can also be found as a world drop with some luck. Alternatively, you can find it at Scraptrap Prime.
Craps
This is what the Craps can do: The Craps is a new Torgue pistol that you can find in the DLC as a world drop. The corrosion variant proves useful in the DLC due to the many armors. The trick is the sticky projectiles that you can make explode while reloading – this way, you can deal a lot of damage at once.
Here you can find the Craps: You can find the Craps just like the other weapons either randomly or try to farm it at Jackbot.
ION Cannon
This is what the ION Cannon can do: “This weapon will definitely get nerfed” – This suspicion is currently prevalent in the community. Because the Ion Cannon is probably the strongest weapon you can find in the DLC right now. It is a Vladof rocket launcher. A really, really strong rocket launcher.
If you get the right variant, you can one-shot just about anything that comes in front of your gun. Depending on the build, the damage can go into several millions. Reddit user darksoulsduck has turned to the good old farming spot Graveward on Mayhem 4.
The result: his ION Cannon dealt 28 million fire damage and 2 million normal damage. That’s enough on Mayhem 4 for almost two Gravewards at once: “In this scenario on Mayhem 4, it had 18 million hit points,” reported the user. If you need a weapon from the DLC, it is this one.
Here you can find the ION Cannon: The ION Cannon has not yet been found as a world drop. But the boss Fabricator can drop it.
This makes you want even more Borderlands 3! What could be next after the DLC?
