Nomad

Nomads are a type of enemy in Borderlands 2. They are slow-moving bandits sporting large shields that provide full cover while allowing the Nomad to remain mobile. Nomads appear in three variations. The Nomad Torturer wields a shield with a Midget Psycho bound to the front. Players can gain a temporary ally by focusing fire on the Midget's bindings and freeing him from the shield. Nomads will also carry a shield with metal spikes, allowing them to engage in melee combat. Some Nomads will simply carry a gun, with no shield, whereas others still will dual wield a pair of guns.
