Show Me The Eridium Explained
During the ‘Show me the Eridium’ event you will be able to collect a lot of Eridium because during this week it’s added to the loot pool of standard enemies. There is also an increase in Eridium drops on Mayhem Mode. So you will be able to collect Eridium more easily but that’s not all.
Eridium has increased in value, meaning everything you can purchase with Eridium has been reduced in price. So check out Crazy Earls’ store in the Cargo bay on Sanctuary 3 or check out the Veteran Rewards vending machine for some slick Anointed Gear. But if you are feeling lucky you can always give Moxxi’s slot machines a spin.
But you can also start collecting Eridium so that you have plenty stockpiled up to take on Hemovorous the Invincible. This Raid Boss is part of Borderlands 3 the Director’s Cut and it requires you to pay up 500 Eridium to open up its lair.
