[jch6]

In Borderlands 4, the real power comes from how well your Vault Hunter’s skills work with their weapons. You can have a legendary gun, but without the right build, it will never reach its full potential. Every character has skill trees that lean toward certain weapon types and brands, so matching them up is key. You’ll quickly notice that the right pairing can turn a decent fight into a complete slaughter. If you are looking to get the most out of your loadout, stacking your build with the right manufacturer bonuses is a must. And of course, having enough Borderlands 4 Cash to grab the gear you need makes the process a lot smoother.



Aura, the Phase-Weaver, is all about elemental control. She thrives on setting enemies alight, melting armour, or frying shields before they can touch you. Maliwan weapons are a perfect fit here, especially SMGs with quick charge times so you can swap elements and keep the damage ticking. A corrosive burst for armoured targets, shock for shields, and fire for flesh – it is all about switching on the fly. For bosses, a Maliwan sniper that can swap between two elements is a game-changer. Her skills push elemental chance and damage over time so high that even a single burst can lock down a crowd.



Rex, the Ironclad, is the guy you pick when you want everything to explode. His skills pump splash damage, blast radius, and heavy weapon ammo regen. Torgue gear is his bread and butter. A sticky-round assault rifle lets you tag a bunch of enemies, then blow them all at once for that satisfying chain reaction. When things get serious – like boss fights – a big-mag Torgue rocket launcher is where the fun begins. With his natural toughness and ammo sustain, you can keep firing without worrying about running dry.



Nyx, the Ghostfang, is all about precision and speed. She plays like a glass cannon that rewards every perfect shot. Jakobs weapons are her go-to, thanks to their crit ricochet effect. Opening a fight with a Jakobs sniper lets her drop priority targets before they even see her. When enemies close in, she swaps to a fast-firing Jakobs pistol or shotgun to keep the crit chain going. It is a high-skill style – miss too many shots and you feel it – but when you are landing headshots, the damage is absurd.
