Bait And Switch is an optional mission in Borderlands that becomes available on Middle Of Nowhere Bounty Board after Jaynistown: Cleaning Up Your Mess is complete.
Background[]
- "Attempts at human habitation along the Trash Coast have always failed, because spiderants overwhelm anyone who tries to live there. The bandits managed it, though, by placing a Queen Spiderant Abdomen in the middle of their camp. I want you to take an abdomen from a rival Queen, then replace the bandits' with that one. Let's see if the spiderants will do our dirty work for us."
