Another week has passed which means another hotfix has arrived to Borderlands 3. The hotfix addresses several reported concerns, makes a few adjustments to Mayhem Mode and activates a new mini event.
Gearbox recently updated Mayhem Mode, but had to temporarily remove the Boundary Issues and Drone Ranger modifiers because they are “resource intensive.” These modifiers were not enabled in this hotfix.
The Loot the Universe mini-event has moved to planet Promethea until May 7th. For those who don’t know, Loot the Universe increases the chance of specific types of Legendary items in one zone of the planet that currently has the event. Affected zones have their own dedicated weapon type (Pistol, Shotgun, SMG, Assault Rifle, Sniper Rifle, or Heavy) and may also have increased chances for Legendary gear types (Class Mods, Artifacts, Shields, or Grenade Mods).
You can see the full list of changes below:
