BLTPS Legendary Shield - Fabled Tortoise
BLTPS Legendary Shield - Fabled Tortoise

The Fabled Tortoise is a Legendary Weapon in Borderlands 2 and Borderlands the Pre-Sequel. This Pangolin Shield has an extremely high capacity that makes you an absolute tank, however, it does slow down your movement speed. The Fabled Tortoise can give you some moderately solid defense if you use it for health gating strategies.

Element:

None

Special Weapon Effects:

“Win by a hare.”
Very high shield capacity, but reduced movement speed while active. Movement speed is increased beyond normal upon shield depletion. Greatly reduced health.

How to get the Fabled Tortoise ?:

  • Borderlands 2
    • You can get the Fabled Tortoise randomly from any suitable loot source but has an increased chance to drop from Blue located in Caustic Caverns.
  • Borderlands the Pre-Sequel
    • You can get the Fabled Tortoise randomly from any suitable loot source or the Grinder.

How to Grind the Fabled Tortoise ?:

You can use the Grinder to create the Fabled Tortoise in Borderlands the Pre-Sequel. While there is no guaranteed recipe, you can combine 3 Purple Shields to obtain a random legendary shield.

Notes:

  • The speed penalty of this shield is significantly less in Borderlands the Pre-Sequel compared to the speed reduction in Borderlands 2.

Trivia:

  • The flavor text references the Aesop’s Fable The Tortoise and the Hare, a story of a race between a tortoise and a hare; the tortoise wins the race even though he is slower because he is able to stay on task while the hare is distracted.
