AAA is a legendary pistol in Borderlands 3 manufactured by Dahl. it is obtained randomly from any suitable loot source, but has an increased chance to drop from Warty located in Lectra City on Promethea.

Special Weapon Effects[]

Hold on! They're lithium! – Always shock. Increased elemental chance and damage. Fires 2 projectiles per shot and 3 round burst, forming the shape of an ‘A’. Fixed magazine size of 9.

Usage & Description[]

The AAA is best used to bring down shields with repeated burst fire. Although shock damage is best suited to destroying shields, the high rate of fire, accuracy, and damage can easily strip through health on most enemies with successive critical hits.

Notes[]

  • The AAA will always spawn with the "Shocking" prefix.
  • A glitch exists where non-elemental variants are available from the weapons vendor at Crimson Command in The Droughts, or the hidden red loot chest immediately beneath that vendor. This glitch is limited to this vendor in Normal Mode. This non-elemental variant will still fire a shower of cosmetic sparks with every trigger pull.

Trivia[]

  • The name AAA refers to a standard size of dry cell battery.
    • The weapon's fixed magazine size and bullet pattern is also a reference to this, with it firing three A's per magazine.
  • The flavor text refers to a quote from The Office episode, "Scott's Tots".
