********STOP****PLEASE GOD STOP******"
Dark Souls
In the eastern part of Caustic Caverns, there is a small island. This island can be spotted from the mission "Safe and Sound" just behind the giant crystalisk, Blue. The island is separated from the mainland by a caustic pool and reaching it requires an adequate amount of shields and health. The island consists of a lone tree and a camp with a lone figure named Solitaire, who is a reference to Solaire of Astora from the video game Dark Souls. Near the camp, the soul of a knight can be seen sitting.
Upon reaching the island, the player will also unlock the Challenge "I Bet I Can Make It," a hidden challenge specifically for this Easter egg.
"Double Rainbow"
On an isolated cliff in the The Highlands - Hyperion Bridge, there is a small camping area with a tent. Reaching this area will cause the "Double Rainbow" Easter egg to appear, granting the player the "What Does It Mean?" achievement. A video of the egg can be seen here.
Find the Secret Claptrap... Again
When visiting Arid Nexus - Badlands, formerly Fyrestone, the hidden Claptrap from the first Borderlands game can be found for 5 Badass Rank. A video of the egg can be seen here.
Johnny Waffles
Johnny Waffles in Sanctuary is considered an Easter egg, as the character was added as a reward for an actual Easter egg hunt at PAX East 2011.
The Lord of the Rings
When the location Eridium Blight is found during True Vault Hunter Mode, Claptrap's Place will have a gear in the fireplace. Picking up the gear starts a series of events beginning with a walk to the Eridium Blight and ascent of the volcano there. Geary, an enemy psycho based on a character from The Lord of the Rings, Gollum, will attack and then jump into the lava. Presently, rakk will drop several chests drop from the sky with loot. This is all a great reference to the famous movie The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.
Minecraft
In the northwestern area of the Caustic Caverns, at the top and to the right of the train tracks, there is a hidden cave containing an easter egg referencing Minecraft, a popular independent video game. Inside the cave are several Creepers and a Badass Creeper (that can drop the Longbow sniper rifle or the Blockhead shotgun), all of which are references to famous enemies in Minecraft. The creepers will sometimes even drop Minecraft-themed skins and heads. There are also Minecraft blocks in the cave, including dirt, stone, coal ore, gold ore, and a block unique to Borderlands, Eridium ore. When broken, coal ore will drop ammuntion, gold ore will drop money, and Eridium ore will randomly drop either Eridium or a Minecraft-themed Class customization.
QR Codes
There are three unique QR codes to find in the game, all of which are found in Sanctuary. In Dr. Zed's (Dr. Zed's shop and/or mini-hospital), one is in the top, left-most body freezer (A video of the code in Dr. Zed's shop can be seen here). Another is found in a pizza box inside Moxxxi's (Mad Moxxi's casino), and on the invitations to Claptrap's Birthday Bash! and various postcards throughout Sanctuary.
Roland's Facebook
In Sanctuary's Crimson Raiders HQ, there are several monitors, once of which contains Roland's Facebook profile, revealing he is in a relationship with Lilith. Her three messages to him read:
- "Hey, i love you call me"
- "was just thinking about you again"
- "was just thinking about you :)"
Roland lists his occupation as "Hired Gun" and the year he graduated high school as 2854. Mordecai and Brick are visible on his Facebook friend's list.
Tannis Rides Again
In Sawtooth Cauldron's bay near Main Street Reservoir, one can shoot five barrels in succession to reveal Tannis once again riding a fish, set to dramatic music. A video of the egg can be seen here.
