About the Tankman’s Shield:

The Tankman’s Shield is a Legendary weapon in Borderlands 3. This Hyperion sniper is pretty good and if you can manipulate the stacking mechanic of this gun then you can deal insane damage.

Elements:

None, fire, corrosive, shock, radiation.

Special Weapon Effect:

“You ever seen this dude tank anything ever?”

  • Every kill adds bonus weapon damage to the next magazine.

Notes:

  • Amara’s ‘Ties that bind‘ skill is very useful for this sniper. Check out Amara’s Sheriff build by Derch.
  • Moze’s ammo regeneration is awesome as you can get a lot of stacks going.
  • The damage bonus is reset if no kills are done before a reload.

How to get the Tankman’s Shield?:

The Tankman’s Shield is Mayhem Mode 4 or higher Legendary and has a 30% chance of dropping from Captain Traunt on Mayhem 4/5 but only a 13.5% chance on Mayhem 6 or above. You can farm him on Athenas.

CHANGELOG:

  • Hotfix – April 29, 2021
    • Increased Weapon Damage by 55%
