The Bearcat can be obtained from any loot source as a “World Drop” but has a 30% chance of dropping from Trufflemunch who you can farm in The Droughts on Pandora.
Changelog:
- Hotfix January 21, 2021
- Increased weapon damage by 400%
- Hotfix August 6, 2020
- Lowered the ammo cost from 4 to 3
Notes:
- The Bearcat occasionally appears in Maurice’s Black Market.
- Aiming down sight narrows the spread of the grenades. This makes it easier to hit single targets.
- This weapon works best on Moze with its splash damage
Trivia:
- The flavor text is a play on a famous quote from the movie Apocalypse Now, as well as a reference to bearcat musk glands that emit an odor reminiscent of popcorn.
- The Bearcat is a returning weapon from Borderlands 2 but as a legendary Torgue assault rifle instead of a pearlescent Dahl assault rifle. It also now consumes 4 ammo per shot.
