Borderlands 3: Farming Frenzy Event

A new Borderlands 3 event has arrived! Hoping to snag a specific Legendary drop? Still looking to cross some of those rare and exotic enemies off your list? Well good news, Vault Hunter: for the next two weeks, the Borderlands 3 farming frenzy is on! The game’s best gear will be that much easier to acquire during the time-limited ‘Farming Frenzy’ mini-event, which runs from January 17th through the 30th in Asia.

Not only will rare enemies be guaranteed to appear, their specific Legendary gear will drop at a higher than normal rate when you defeat them. Additionally, Takedown at the Maliwan Blacksite will be more manageable for small squads and solo players, meaning its bosses (and their Legendary loot) will be yours for the taking. Here are the specifics of this limited-time mini-event and you can also read more here.

• Rare spawns are guaranteed to appear
• All enemies with dedicated loot pools (e.g. rare spawns, named bosses, etc.) have a higher chance of dropping Legendary gear from their dedicated loot pool
• Additionally, the Anointment rate for that gear has been increased
• Takedown at the Maliwan Blacksite’s difficulty will now scale to match the size of the player party rather than defaulting to four-player difficulty (available on PC, PS4, and Xbox One only)

Again, these changes go live today, January 17th, and will be reversed on Friday, January 31st in Asia. That means you have two weeks of prime loot hunting to kick off the new year, so get out there and level up your arsenal! For all your Borderlands 3 fans, check out our other articles on the game.
