Dark Army

About the Dark Army:

The Dark Army is a Legendary Weapon in Borderlands 3 and is part of the Designer’s Cut DLC. This Tediore SMG is fun as it kinda works like the OPQ system. Because when you have this weapon equipped it will summon 1 but an army of drones. As these fly beside you, they will assist you with shooting your target.  When you reload the drones have increased Damage and gain the Elemental Damage Type of your weapon for a short time. Very fun to use. Yes, Zane’s clone will also summon its own army.

Special Weapon Effect:

“I am the gun.”

• Summons an army of drones.
• On Reload, drones have increased Damage and gain the Elemental Damage Type of your weapon for a short time.
